"-BECOME A NAME"

Coach Bingham stepped down from his official position in the University last Friday night. In doing so he remarked that he "could never say goodbye to the Harvard track team." But even if he could, there is no man on the track team or in the entire University for that matter, who would let him.

Bill Bingham has carved too big a niche for himself in the hearts of all with whom he has come in contact to slip out of Harvard life by the mere retiring from an office. What he has done for track is of course incalculable. It was his spirit and the confidence with which he inspired his men that alone made possible the great team of 1921 which finished close behind Yale, beat Princeton, and came within half a point of the Intercollegiate title. Again last year, it was Bingham's personality, refusing to be discouraged by a depressing outlook, which developed a team to beat Yale.

Officially, Bill Bingham could resign from a dozen offices, if he chose; his connection with the University would be as close as ever. He has become a name, and when Harvard has need of him again, he can be counted on to serve again, as whole-heartedly and unselfishly as before.
