Dick Harlow, football coach, had one bright spot in his disappointing football season last fall, it was revealed yesterday by Victor O. Jones of the Boston Globe.
As Harlow was gloomily reviewing the season ending with the loss to Yale, a small package arrived with a note attached, which said: "I know you smoke cigars and thought this would be as good a time as any to send a box."
The note was signed "James B. Conant," and says Jones, "I can imagine a thoughtful gesture like this from the head of a university might mean more to a beaten football coach than all the five-year, $15,000 contracts in the world."
