Charles Herbert Treat (December 16, 1900 – April 19, 1947) was an American football player who played for Princeton University and was unanimously selected as an All-American at the tackle position in 1922.
In 1943, Treat was badly injured when he was struck by an automobile, and he died four years later after falling nine stories from a hotel in Kansas City, Missouri.
[1] When Treat decided to transfer to Princeton in August 1921, The New York Times reported: "Boston College football prospects for the approaching gridiron season received quite a jolt today when it became known that Herbert Treat, the star varsity tackle of last season, had decided to quit Newton Heights and cast his fortunes with Princeton University.
[8] In April 1947, Treat, at age 47, was killed in a plunge from the window of his ninth floor room at the Muehlebach Hotel in downtown Kansas City, Missouri.
[5] Another news account reported that he had traveled to Kansas City for "medical treatment for complications from crippling injuries" he sustained in the 1943 automobile accident.
