An important part of Harvard's football destiny will be in the making in the New Hampshire hills tomorrow afternoon when the Yardling football team travels to Exeter to open its season, and if the results of the fracas are encouraging, it bodes well for future Varsity elevens.
Two Sophomore stars of last year's Yardling team are engaged in a fight for positions, with George Hanford just a shade behind the veteran Harold Williams for goal, and Bill Edgar leading Phil Brooks, a Senior, for the right half post.
In charge of Freshman affairs, Mercer, Marvin, and Peabody will go to work on the appointing of a Red Book chairman and committee. The trio will work with Kendric N. Marshall '26, Freshman Union mentor, in the appointment of the Union Committee. Still another phase of the group's work...
As the first Yale graduate to assume coaching duties at Harvard, Al Colwell, assistant Yardling grid mentor, admitted he was "on the spot" but refused to take notice of any jinx.
Like Stahley, Colwell refuses to say anything about the present Freshman squad, although field house rumors are to the effect that it's the best Yardling team in several years and will virtually form the complete 1939 Varsity.
