He was 1.74 m tall and weighed 75 kg.[1] He usually played hooker, with SCUF (Sporting club universitaire de France); after 1908 he served as section secretary, he won the Paris Championship as captain of their second team in 1912, and in 1913 he was in the first team that lost in the final of the national championship.[2]

A soldier with the French infantry, he was killed in 1914, the first year of World War I, leaving behind two children, Jacqueline, who was six years old and Jean, who was five months old.

France was admitted into the Five Nations Championship for the first time in 1910.

The French side had only 14 players when the players got together the day before the match at the Gare Saint-Lazare. The team manager, Charles Brennus, engaged the Parisian player Anduran on short notice to fill out the team, enabling them to play their first match in the tournament with a complete squad.[3] He was relatively easy to find, because he was an art dealer and was opening a show that day.[2]

gollark: Mysterious. Try adding more spaces or something. Maybe they're macros? Macros cause weirdness sometimes possibly.
