...present Holy Cross steam is quite different from the ones which have proceeded from Month St. James in the recent past. Crusader linemen used to be large immobile mon; the current vintage is lighter (the program fixes the average weight of the line at 196) and as a result is faster and able to charge harder...
...season prediction had it that Zitrides would field a light, fast team this year, but the squad, particularly the linemen looked heavy and sluggish in the opener, in comparison with the Eli speedsters. The only experienced Bruin back, reliable Walt Pastuzak, tried vainly all afternoon to build up a respectable amount of yardage by sending fast halfbacks Jim Martland and Bob Lenker over tackle on quick-opening plays.

Thus, Ossman, who apparently is being groomed for considerable service as a line-backer this year, was the only man who was not replaced. Kane came up from the junior varsity to fill in for Bob Stargel, who was absent from practice, and the injured Aruie Horween...
