Page 47: "Dr. Allen received the nickname 'Phog' from a K. U. journalist-fraternity brother named Ward (Pinhead) Coble. Coble heard Allen being called 'Foghorn' for several years as he umpired baseball and football games. He shortened Foghorn to Fog, supplemented the letters Ph for the F, and so it remains today."
