1928
Myles Lane will be enshrined in the National Football Hall of Fame at New Brunswick, N. J. The Boston Globe reporter started his long article with these facts "'He is the only supreme court justice with his name on the Stanley Cup. He is the only Stanley Cup hockey player-who is in the American College Football Hall of Fame. He is Myles Lane who - from the ponds and playing fields of Melrose, from Dartmouth and Boston College Law — is a Supreme Court Justice of the State of New York. Myles was a halfback on Dartmouth's first undefeated team in 1925 and the national scoring champion with 125 points in 1927." .
Myles and seven other college football greats will be formally inducted Dec. 8 at the awards dinner at the Waldorf Astoria. Congratulations, Myles, we're all mighty proud of you. Incidentally, a special thanKs to '28ers for sending me clippings about Myles from all over the country.
