...first-string personnel the booters have an experienced group. Captain Phil Potter, the left inside, is probably the key man on the attack, a good shot, and the best passer on the team. Two years ago Potter was the squad's high scorer. Hans Estin, the center forward, is the high scorer this year and was a letter winner last year. Charlie Weiss, the right inside, is a sophomore and one of the best dribblers on the squad...
...Coach Elmer Madar, who has scouted Brown in its last three outings against Connecticut, Rutgers, and Western Reserve, ranked the Bruins on a par with Dartmouth and reported that its line was bigger than Harvard's and faster than the Holy Cross forward wall.

Every man on the squad has a chance to be among the five that lead off against Brown on December...
Back from various absences will be highly valued John Garrity, who plays either forward or defense and is now scholastically eligible as well as Dick McDormott, who broke his ankle last season just as he was coming into his own. Another addition in February may be Lew Preston, who in 1948 left Harvard to tour Europe with the AAU Olympic sextet, the squad that didn't play...
