FOOTBALL COACH
FEBRUARY, 1907

Doctor John C. O'Connor '02 will coach the College football forces next fall. Doctor O'Connor played end for four years on the Dartmouth eleven, and in 1901 captained the first team to defeat Brown. In his senior year he also played first base on the nine. In 1902 and 1903 Doctor O'Connor coached at Bowdoin, in 1904 at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute, and in 1905 and 1906 at Phillips Andover Academy. While at Andover he scored his greatest success, twice defeating the Exeter team coached by Ex-Captain Hogan of Yale. Doctor O'Connor has shown himself a thorough master of the knowledge of the individual positions, and a strong and effective tactician under both the old and the new rules. He comes to Dartmouth with the respect and confidence of the entire College.
