...Ball is a triple threat man, dangerous at all times. Last year the Harvard fans did not see much of this back as he suffered a spinal injury the first play of the game. John O'Leary was out last year with injuries. He has earned the nod from Coach "Tuss" McLaughry because he is a fast shifty runner who has tremendous drive and hard to tackle. Richard Harlow has already signified his respect for John McLaughry, the great defensive, quarter-back of the '38 eleven. But his sterling qualities extend beyond the ability to protect Bear territory, McLaughry specializes...
...Line coach Denny Meyer boasts of a fast 186 pound forward wall, heavier than the Bear's opponents. Much interest has been shown in George Larkowich a newly converted left tackle.

That's quite a mouthful, but then this boy will have to be good, for the Bear ends are only fair, and the rest of the Bear line is going to have quite an afternoon tomorrow
