...coach of the court squad, Lon Jourdet, the only alumni coach in the league, will have a completely veteran team available if he wishes to use it. The Quakers will miss Payson Brickley, 1939 captain; Tony Mischo, runner-up for the league's individual scoring crown, and Bill Dignan and Chuck Diven, but they still have Ross Hahn and Bruce Pearce as forwards; Harian Gustafson, football captain, at center, and Captain Gerry Seeders and Bernie Schrieber at the guards. In fact that is the way Pennsylvania will line up, at least for its early games. All of these...
Billy Koepsell at short, Chuck Diven at second, Dick Trexler at third, and Herb Ogden hold forth in the inner defense for the Red and Blue. Chuck Morris operates behind the plate. In the outfield, McDonald, Dignan, MacHarg, and Raffetto seem to be the cream of a rather skimpy crop...

Edwards ("Peter Pan of Princeton") to climb down from the stands and lead a writhing battalion to tear down the goal posts for souvenirs. Score: Princeton 25, Yale...
...Dignan, although no such honor will probably be accorded him, will be missed. As a line-plunger, Dignan had no equal on the squad, unless Prendergast was his superior. As a defensive back, he easily outshone the bemasked Tiger substitute, and one of his chief contributions to Princeton this year was his service as a receiver of the aerial threats around which Roper had built his offense. With Dignan gone, Slagle will have to be supplied with a new battery mate...
