PRINCETON. N. J April .-The student
body Is elated over the report that Kildl
Hart, "12, Is to be permitted to captain next
season s Princeton varsity foot ball team.
According to the report of th thre phy
sicians who examined him at th request
of tho faculty athletic advisory board, Hart
may play foot ball without taking mor
rlBks than fall to the lot of the average
athlete In tho course of a gridiron contest.
At the close of last season, Eddl Hart,
fullback, was elected captain of tho 1310
Princeton varsity. Directly after hla in.
tion stories arose from various sources
that the Tiger leader played foot ball with
a broken neck and used a special harness
In order to keep hla head in position on
hla shoulder. The foundaUon for the re-.
port came from tho tale of an accident
which Hart auatalned In prep, school. Ha
dived head first Into the goal poau durlnaj
an Andover gam and crumpled up hla.
neck. Th Injury waa a serious one.
When the atory In Its final version,
reached tho athletic officers of Princeton I
university they refused to permit Hart taw
continue foot ball and represent tho Orang
and Black while hiding apllt vertebra In
a specially constructed foot ball helmet
Hart declared that reports of hla broken
neck were greatly exaggerated and the
faculty requested him to submit to a phys
ical examination. A second set of storieo
immediately appeared. ta.tlna- h. u.-.
had been examined and waa in a nn...,,.
