Ravreby, who hurled the javelin with the track team at the time of spring practice, injured his hip early in the fall, but did not seem to be seriously slowed. Last spring the vacancy was filled pretty well by junior Hank Rate, an aggressive player who has developed fast since his third-string freshman days. As last year, Rate will see considerable defensive action, at least. Starting '54 freshman Harvey Popell has also presented a tall and talented target in practice. Senior Don Cass, another letterman, was held back by injuries for most...
...strong-side guard and strong-side end, is less promising. John Nichols and Arnie Horween, weighing a total of 430 pounds, have been running mates in early practice with a tentative first line.

Cleveland's newest bonus baby (most famous: Pitcher Bob Feller) is 18-year-old Pitcher Billy Joe Davidson, reported by wide-eyed scouts to be more poised and even faster than Feller when he hit the majors...
