FIELD TO ATTEND N.S.F.A. CONFERENCE

Council Grants Numerals to Senior Class Football Team--Award Made on Basis of Season's Record

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

R. H. Field '26 was selected by the Student Council at a meeting held yesterday afternoon to represent Harvard at the National Student Federation conference which opens in Columbus, Missouri on Wednesday. The conference, an annual feature of the U.S.F.A. activities, has been attended by a Harvard representative for some years past. Field, who will uphold the Harvard part in this year's conference, was president of the CRIMSON as an undergraduate and also elected permanent treasurer of his class in his Senior year. He is now a third year student in the Law School where he is treasurer of the Law Review.

The Student Council devoted the rest of its attention yesterday to various questions which are left over from the football season. The Council voted in the first place to recommend that numerals be awarded to members of the Senior class football team in recognition of their playing both during the past season and during previous seasons. The Senior team lost the class championship to the Sophomores this year by one point in the official team ranking, but with their full strength on the field were rated the equals of the Sophomores. Although the Seniors had no legal claim to the award of numerals the Student Council recommendation was prompted by a desire to stimulate interest in interclass athletics and to recognize the work done by the members of the Senior team in class football.

It was also voted by the Council to recommend to the Athletic Committee that a football "H" be awarded to F. S. Grant '29 who had been a substitute on the University squad for two years and a member of the Seconds in his Sophomore year.
