HUBBARD IS UNQUALIFIED TO COMMENT, SAYS MAHER

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

In a statement issued yesterday on the charges in the article in Liberty by W. D. Hubbard '22, J. J. Maher '26 former Crimson football star and a member of the Athletic Advisory Board, stated that "graduates of both institutions are getting steamed up over something they know nothing at all about." Maher was one of the undergraduate members of the Harvard Athletic Committee from 1923 until 1925, and is at present coach at Choate School.

Hubbard mentioned in his charges that Princeton players dislocated Maher's wrist in the 1922 Harvard-Princeton Freshman game. Maher refused to either affirm or deny the act yesterday.

"Hubbard was in Africa when the purforted roughness happened, which alone proves that he is unqualified to comment on such matters. I believe the only statements on this matter should come direct from W. J. Bingham '16, at Harvard," Maher said.
