Former Illinois Star to Return to University--Successful in First Year Here

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

R. J. Dunne, ex-University of Michigan football captain, has been chosen football line coach to replace J. L. Brader, it was announced yesterday by W. J. Bingham '16. C. R. Carney, the end coach, has definitely decided to return next fall to resume his post.

Was Star At Michigan

Dunne, who played on the University of Michigan eleven four years, from 1918 to 1921, inclusive, as an end, at tackle, and finishing his grid career as a guard, was considered one of the best players in the West. Schooled in football by the veteran coach, F. H. Yest, he will bring to Harvard a thorough knowledge of a system that has won great success in the Western Conference. Dunne has kept in close touch with football since his graduation, and is fully abreast of developments of the past few years.

Coached at Northwestern

In 1926 he was assistant coach at Northwestern University, were he helped to develop one of the most powerful lines in the West. His team tied with Michigan in the standing for the Conference title, and held Notre Dame to one touchdown. It was undefeated in the Conference and served in many years. The team did not meet Michigan.

Carney Will Coach Wings

The ends will again be under the instruction of C. R. Carney, one of the greatest ends ever turned out in the Big Ten Conference, who was an All-American choice while playing his last year: at the punts rapidly, and often cutting in behind the line to throw the runner for a loss.

J. L. Brader, of Wisconsin, will take a coaching position in the West. Under his tutelage the Crimson forward wall showed a punch and aggressiveness that marked it as one of the best in the East last season.
