MISSING THE BOAT

For many years the position of football manager has been a respected one at Harvard, and the list of past managers of the College's most popular sport is an enviable one. With this in mind, it seems strange that more members of the Class of 1940 have not turned out this fall.

This competition is correctly advertised as a hard one; but it is not so hard that a good man cannot easily compete, perhaps win out. Surely the benefit to be derived is great, and studies will not suffer unduely. Harvard's chief undergraduate administrative position in the field of athletics should not be passed by lightly.
