query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9800E3D81E31E233A... CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 19. -- The football players who participated in Harvard's game against Yale in the stadium this Fall will hold their election of a Captain for 1912 to-morrow. Only twelve men will attend the meeting, as L.D. Smith is away, and "Doc" Leslie only yesterday had an operation for appendicitis. Roth [sic] men have finished their football careers at Harvard.

Percy Langdon Wendell. See www.archive.org/stream/bookathletics00with#page/112/mode/2up for an article he wrote, with more football pictures of the period. Probably: Percy Langdon Wendell, born 1889, died 1932 as indicated at www.starsend.net/bryants/gsbdetail10.html and en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percy_Wendell

It looks like the 1913 team which was undefeated. Several graduated in 1913 so would not be here for 1914. One player pictured started in 1913 and would not have been here in 1912. The full names are: Percy Langdon Wendell (1889-1932) 1913 Derric Choate Parmenter (1890-1958) 1913 Robert Treat Paine Storer (1893-1963) 1914 George Alexander McKinlock, Jr. (1893-?) 1916 Walter Henry Trumbull, Jr. (1893-?) 1914 Harvey Rexford Hitchcock, Jr. (1893-?) 1914 I get the full names from their World War I draft registration. Their Wikipedia articles are: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Treat_Paine_Storer en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percy_Langdon_Wendell Here is a photo of the 1913 team: books.google.com/books?id=UlLvwa0dVXgC&pg=PA17&lp... parmenter&f=false
