...home team on offense. Harvard lined up with Dike Hyde and Fred Ravreby on the ends; Bob Stargel, a last-minute addition to the first string, and Phil Connelly, tackles; Bill Rosenau and Jerry Kanter, guards; Paul O'Brien, center; Carroll Lowenstein, quarterback; Dave, Warden, wingback; Captain Phil Isenberg, tailback; and John West, fullback...

The eleventh man is Red Lewis, first string junior varsity center last season...
