BRICKLEY FORGETS HIMSELF
Noted Harvard Football Star, While Umpiring Game, Nearly Intercepts Forward Pass. Charley Brickley, one-time Harvard football star and captain of the Army Transport Service eleven last fall, is blossoming forth into a regular offl-
cial, but teams that engage him had better be prepared for unexpected happenings. Charley was umpire at the last game of the year in Newark and was enthusiastic about the plays the schoolboys used. “Say,” he said to one of his fellow officials, “one of those teams had a bird of a forward pass, and it was all I could do when the ball skimmed over my head to keep my hands down. I could have intercepted it dead easy, but I caught myself in time.”
