Harvard Athletic Achievements

Ready for action in any season, Chip won three letters in football, three in basketball and one in baseball. A two-way player on the gridiron, he was a slashing halfback, a good passer, and a superlative defender. His name is still in the record books for punt return yardage and pass interceptions. Relatively short for a basketball player, he starred on the court for three years and captained the quintet in 1949 as a junior.
