At a recent meeting of the Athletic Committee the following letter of thanks was sent W. T. Reid, Jr., coach of the University football team, for the past two years:

DEAR MR. REID:--

The Harvard Athletic Committee, at a meeting held January 18, requested its chairman to communicate to you its appreciation of the services which you have rendered to Harvard during the period in which you have been acting as head coach of the football team. Those services have not been limited to the technical business of coaching, but have included valuable assistance to the University as its representative on the Football Rules Committee; in collecting and formulating your views and experiences in coaching for the benefit of your successors; and as a spokesman for clean and honorable sport on many public and private occasions. The Committee would cordially bear witness to your fidelity, earnestness, and uniform courtesy, in the execution of your duties in many trying emergencies; and to your successful advocacy of a high standard of conduct and of play, in continuance of the best Harvard traditions. Sincerely yours,   H. S. WHITE, Chairman.
