Only Probation May Threaten Harlow's Hopes for Winning Team Next Season

Dick Harlow expects a vastly improved football team for 1937, "if only the boys attend to their studies and don't go on probation." That was the substance of his first post-season interview.

"We will be three deep in almost every position, and provided the studies are kept up and other circumstances such as injuries, don't intervene, we shouldn't have to worry as we did this year about where the replacements were coming from."

The best thing that happened in the season just closed, Harlow feels, is the fact that Harvard has completely lost its reputation for being an easy mark, and also the fact that the team no longer tries only to hold down the opponents score, but is out very definitely to win every game. That was the tremendous mental hazard that Harlow had to overcome.

The coaching staff is particularly encouraged about the material they will have to work with at Spring practice. At the running back positions Stuart, Harding, Roberts, and Brooks all return from the Varsity, while great things are expected from Foley and Burnett of the Jayvees.

For the quarterback post Wilson and Boston return from the Varsity, while Jerome of the Jayvees is expected to wear a Varsity suit next season. At the bucking back Struck and Pope will be back from the first team, while Cohen and Prouty of the Junior Varsity are thought likely Varsity material.

The ends who are returning from the Varsity are Green, Daughters, Jameson, Smith and Colwell. Tackles: Kevorkian, Nee and Booth from the Varsity and Barkin, Schmidt, and Dillingham of the Jayvees. Guards: Allen, Downs, Klein, and Glueck of the Varsity, and Zinman, Gardiner, and Mellon of the Jayvees. Centers: Russel, Rick Hedblom, and Fearon of the Varsity and Cheever of the Jayvees.
