...other hand, Penn's experimenting produced less fortunate results. John Jerbasi, center half, captain, and backbone of the Quaker squad, was injured in practice Friday and did not play. To compensate for Jerbasi's absence, Penn coach Charles Scott moved left fullback Charley Kalme to center halfback, where he did an adequate job. Regular left half Bob Trigg filled in for Kalme at fullback, and right inside Davey Buten switched to left halfback. Fred Mansouri was elevated to first-string inside...
...this point, the Crimson drive appeared to be slowing, so coach John Yovicsin sent in the versatile Boulris, who switched briefly from running to passing. After missing Repscher in the flank, he threw complete to captain Hank Keohane on the Penn 11, for 14 yards, and Charlie Ravenel gained seven on a keeper before Boulris barged over right tackle for the score.
