Norm Rand, another of the "forgotten men" of last season, will be a capable substitute at one half and Pop Nairne, who has been heralded as one of the best runners to be seen for some years at Dartmouth will fill the second string right half position. Bill Clark, who ran 52 yards to help the Big Green to tie the Crimson game in the closing minutes of the game last year is just at capable now as then and will...
