I'rofessor Harmon practically turned the team over to Ach he showed his ability to coach by welding together a machine that won from Westminster and in a blaze of glory won from Alle gheny on Thanksgiving. As a basketball coach he has no peer and turned out a winning team.
Ach i.s a smiling debonair youth with light hair and blue eyes and does not look the ])art of a ''driving coach," but just ask some of the men who work under him concerning his ability to drive.

PROFESSOR HAROLD O. WHITE
In order to have a winning football team the squad must have not only head coaches but able assistant coaches who know the game and can teach it to others.
Such a man is I'rofessor Harold
O. White, Avho came from Hamilton College to Grove Citv in 1912 as assistant Professor in Classics.
Since his arrival he has shown
on numerous occasions that he can play football. When he has been seen to send a scrub to the side-lines and juni]3 in himself the X'arsity always knows there will be something doing, for he is a hard man to get. Xo doubt we will hear from the said Prof, during the 1916 season.
CARSON D. WEIL
Carson I). XX'eil, better knowii as Cars or Fat, a ])ost-gratluate in football at Grove Cit}', was a main factor in the 1915 team's success. His thorough knowledge of the game, es]5ecially of line work and his willingness to teach the men how to work to the best advantage, cou])led with his intimacy with the fellows and his
"never sav die s]tirit," stanqted him as one of the strongest and
capable assistants of the head coaches. Fat says "get 'em low and got 'cm hard." Snch a fighting spirit means a world of good to the men. Here's hoping we hear from Carson again.
