  • Peggy Parratt, Mvp
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 1, No. 6 (1979) Peggy Parratt PEGGY PARRATT, MVP By Milt Roberts Professional football lost its MVP when George Watson "Peggy" Parratt died at his Lakewood home in Cleveland, Ohio, on January 3, 1959. Parratt was never officially recognized as pro football's Most Valuable Player. But a study of the professional football scene in Ohio between 1905 and 1916 reveals that the myriad of valuable contributions Peggy made to professional football during those twelve struggling years eminently qualified him as the game's "Most Versatile Personality." Parratt was one of that glittering collection of gridiron stars who came to the Canton- Massillon area in 1905 and 1906 to play for pay. He had performed professionally in 1905 for Shelby and Lorain before he came to Massillon in 1906. The circumstances that found the three-time All-Ohio college star playing professional football while still playing college football at Case University in 1905 were most unusual. Parratt risked his amateur standing by playing professional ball on Sundays for the Shelby A.C., using the alias "Jimmy Murphy." Wearing a peculiar-looking helmet and nose guard, Peggy first drew notice from the Shelby press for his outstanding play against a team of college all-stars. The praise, however, was for Jimmy Murphy, not Peggy Parratt.

The chairman of the Case University Athletic Board, Professor Arthur S.
