SHAUGHNESSY WILL RETURN TO HELP COACH BACKFIELD

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Frank Shaughnessy, who introduced the fundamental principles of the lateral pass to the Harvard football team several years ago, is an eleventh hour addition to the staff of coaches which is to help Arnold Horween '21 during the spring practice session, it was learned yesterday from W. J. Bingham '16, Director of Athletics. Shaughnessy will arrive from Canada in a few days and will assist Horween in developing backfield material to succeed Captain A. E. French '29 and David Guarnaccia '29, lateral pass experts of the 1928 gridiron machine.

Even though Horween will not arrive from Chicago in time for today's workout, the spring conditioning will be started at Soldiers Field at 2.30 o'clock this afternoon under the direction of Coach J. L. Knox '98, mentor of the University second team. Leaving after the conclusion of this week's practice, Horween will be absent for about seven days but will return to Cambridge to take charge of the final week of the spring session.
