Baker History: College Football

I'm initiating a page on Ralph "Moon" Baker, my great uncle and an All-American halfback at Northwestern University in the 1920s. The triple-threat halfback led the Wildcats to a tie for the Big Ten conference title in 1926. He was named to the College Football Hall of Fame in 1981. Only my uncle Gerald (Dad's older brother) rivals Ralph in gridiron accomplishments (a running back for Wesleyan University, he was pictured alongside the great Jim Brown of Syracuse in a Sports Illustrated college football preview issue). See link at left.
