8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
Dr. Huey Flung Huey, prognosticator extraordinary of football scores, finally arrived in Cambridge later yesterday afternoon to take up his post as successor to Joe Forecast on the Harvard CRIMSON.
Since he omitted the formality of providing himself with the proper passport and immigration papers. Dr. Huey is wanted by the State Department, and will be kept under cover until things are fixed up by Charlie Apted, guardian plenipotentiary of Harvard University and her treasures. As soon as he may show himself about the Square with some degree of immunity, at least from the federal officers, the CRIMSON promises to hold a public reception for the great Oriental dopester to introduce in person this new star on the Cambridge horizon to his vast public.
Last night, at a small informal dinner, Dr. Huey outlined his plans for the fall. Speaking through an interpreter, he stated that although he had yet to see a football game, he believed he understood the underlying principles of American sport. He cited his unfortunate experience in Agua Caliente, Mexico, where he lost in one brief half hour at the gaming tables the profits of the Harvard CRIMSON for the next five years.
"I like your attitude," he said, or at least so his interpreter said he said. "You Americans like the big risks. You burn the candle at both ends and at the middle. Vive l'Amerique!" He said a lot more too about what were going to be the winning football teams of the country, this fall, but that will be saved for tomorrow and subsequent Saturdays.
