Coach Dick Harlow of Harvard, upon hearing that Loren MacKinney made the Associated Press' All-Eastern football team, saying, "I'm mighty happy, for Loren is the best all-around end I've ever coached, and that includes Bob Higgins, who was an Ail-American end on Walter Camp's team in 1919." Higgins played under Harlow at Penn State and is the present coach there. In further praising MacKinney, Dick stated that Loren would have been the best tailback in the country if he had played that position, but he had to use him on the wings because of a- shortage of ends. MacKinney was all thrills over the honor and stated, "I have no regrets that I didn't play in the backfield because I've always wanted to play end." Sounding Pat Hanley of B. U.

Dec. 5 (AP) Loren MacKinney, Harvard's kicking end, is the only repeater on the 1941 All-Eastern football team compiled by the Associated Press. Harvard also shared honors with Navy as the only teams to place two men on the mythical eleven. Endicott Peabody 2d. another standout performer in the rugged Harvard line, earned one of the guard berths.

Art Harrison and Bob Rutter of Tufts telling of their biggest thrills this Fall Harrison: "The Northeastern game gave me mine. I gave them a touchdown after I had fumbled and I felt redeemed when the boys came back with a touchdown to win the game." Rutter: "The 78-yard march in the last four minutes of play that won the Bates game for us." And Athletic Director Prof. Clarence Houston winding up with this classic: "You can say that my biggest thrill came from the big crowd at the Bow-doin game." Which was spoken like a true A. D. John Curley, the A.

D. at B. saying that the recently printed figures of the home attendance at Eagle games was wrong. The Eagles were listed as attracting 170,000, whereas they actually drew 194,000. All of which was a very nice haul for the Eagles' treasury, the best in history, in fact, which the B.

C. people can well use. Fuller Declares Johnson Best FB Whitey Fuller, the Dartmouth publicist's warning to Harvard's Harlow: "I've seen a lot of great fullbacks play, including Bill Osmanski, but this Johnson down at William and Mary, is the best ever. He can do more things than any fullback I've ever seen. Against us Johnson kicked a 40-yard field goal in the mud and rain, and he did it so well that he almost kicked it right into our field house." William and Mary is the "breather" on the Harvard schedule, the Southerners opening the Harvard season.

Capt George Radulski of B. U. in telling about his big thrill, declared: "Nov that football is all over and there are no more blocks to throw or tackles to make, seriously, the seven points we made against B. C. was a joy-producer.

I actually thought we were going to make several more." Banquets Have Helped Coach Myers Brown's Skip Stahley telling Denny Myers that Holy Cross was a much better team against Boston College than against Brown. "They sure knew all their plays well," Myers replied, "and a lot of ours, too."

There was a mixup in the option papers and Judge M. Landis ruled "Bama" a free agent He really hadn't acquired the extra handle of "Bama" then, however, because it wasn't unul after scout Jack O'Conner had signed him to a Boston contract and shuffled him off to Hartford in the Eastern League (Class A) that teammates tacked on the front moniker, a nickname major league newspapermen went for big.
