Capt. Hart, Princeton (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Anthony Cerminaro said:
    In 1911 Sanford White, at end, scored all the points that brought Princeton its first Big Three title since 1896... Less spectacular, but equally important, was the all-round play at tackle of Eddie Hart, captain in 1910 and 1911. One of the most powerful linemen who ever played for Princeton, he became a legend in the American Expeditionary Force during the First World War when, responding to an offer by a professional strong man in a Paris theatre to take on anyone in the audience, Hart, on orders from his colonel, went forward to the stage and threw the challenger into the wings. In 1911, just before Hart's team was photographed, someone doing research on the rights and privileges of champions discovered John DeWitt in his white sweater. A similar sweater was made ready for Eddie Hart, thus transmuting the 1903 improvisation into tradition. from Princeton Football
