Providence, R.

Payer, another back, has also recovered from the minor injuries he received a week ago in the Brown-Dartmouth tussle.

Mishel is another speedster, and is also a capable dropkicker. Of the other starting backs, Payer is experienced, heavy, and fast, while Jones, who has won the fullback berth has plenty of weight and played well in the last period of the Penn game...
