Dunster placed its lone representative in the person of Red Balley to round out the backfield in the fullback post. Bailey, besides being a driving line-bucker, is an excellent kicker. Thus the backfield presents a well-rounded array with a good blocker, an accurate passer, an elusive quarter, and a good linebucker and kicker.

During the half we are led to believe there was a fight talk. Harlow decided to insert burly bucker Ben Smith to improve on the none too deceiving spinning fakes of Joe Gardella. Still Smith was not able to work any wonders for a little while, for Princeton had obviously scouted Harvard's spinners down to a fine point...

On the "B" eleven Ray Jones, elevated since Bob Burnett's ankle injury, took over the wingback post...
...Bucker Ben Smith and the fast-coming Joe Gardella (who should see plenty of action especially to bolster the backfield defense) will try to keep the spinning offense at the kind of past when they were ripping through the Army line. This Dartmouth team is no world-beater on defense. Harvard will count on an equal-weighted but superior starting forward wall, backed up by Cliff Wilson and Tim Russell, to stop the Green attack, and then will attempt to turn on the offensive steam. Each opponent has scored 20 points against the Harlowmen; today they will...
Captain Bob Green and right tackle Ken Booth, the two most reliable performers game in and game out, were again top-notchers for the total forces. Green's most spectacular play occurred in the second canto, when he and bucker Mike Cohen caught the fleet Brud Holland from behind after a goodly Ithacan gain on an end-around play. Booth was the outstanding blocked on the field...
