Other stars that Walker "persuaded" to go to Yale included Jim Fuchs world champion shot-putter, 1950 football captain Brad Quackenbush and lettermen Jack Lohnes, Jim Rowe, and Bob Parcella. "I've sent boys there from all over the country," Walker says, "and I don't get a nickel for it, either...
...anybody but the opposition. The Lions have such capable ends as Gerard Cozzi, Wes (Boom) Bomm, and the Ward boys, Al and Leo. They have massive tackles on the order of George Vitone and Bill Wallace. They have Don Trevisano and Gerry Audette, powerful guards. And they have three lettermen at center...

Coach John Bohn's varsity lost to the Jumbo freshmen last week, though, by a 6-1 score...

Dana Getchell was the strongest of last year's bench and will move up to the first string left inside, with Pete Baker, another of last year's substitute lettermen, fighting it out with sophomore Johnny Beer for the right inside position.

In the center of the line, Joe Gleason and Dick Murphy, both lettermen, are likely to be as tough as any the Crimson will meet. The Crimson-Crusader series stands at Harvard 17 wins, 7 losses, 1 tie.
