...late Walter Camp for his second All-American lineup last fall, appears to be the best of the lot. With the huddle system again in vogue, he is calling signals in place of Captain Stout. An accurate passer, a brilliant runner, a fine drop-kicker, and a good punter, he is a genuine quadruple threat man. Dignan, a kicker and line plunger, Caulkins, and Gilligan make up the rest of the backfield. Bridges, the diminutive Virginian from the 1928 eleven, may force his way into this combination before long. He showed up unusually well as an interference man and line...
...coaches are still unsatisfied with the way the backfield is shaping up. Bench continues at quarterback with Bunnell as his first substitute. Pond and Allen, and Cottle or Failing are the other backs likely to start against Dartmouth. Failing is a punter of the first magnitude and leads the whole squad in this respect, but he lacks experience...
...afternoon for the scrimmage, they were led by their newly elected captain, W. T. Heageney '25. For two years he has played a consistant game on Coach Knox's squad, and this fall spring into prominence after a 25-yard dash through the Crimson line in scrimmage. As a punter and runner of considerable ability, Heageney is easily the most valuable backfield man on the scrub squad...
...ground-gainer knows few equals, on the Harvard squad at least. As a field general he is an entirely unknown quantity, although he must have shown Coach Fisher something to have advanced from Team C to Team A in one week. Gehrke has won laurels both as a punter and a valuable defence man, to say nothing of his ability at interference. For an all-round useful man in the backfield he has Miller, who weight over 200 pounds and runs the 100-yard dash in under ten seconds, For running back punts, fast off-tackle plays, or end runs...
...this year, and Hamlen. Freshman Quarterback, can scarcely be considered seriously on re-count of his lack of experience. Coburn's place as number one back may go to Howe, who played there regularly this year until his injury. Coady, a powerful defensive player and a good punter, may get the place, or he may be converted into a lineman, where he formerly played. Cheek is comparatively sure of a place as number two back unless he is shifted to number one to make room for Miller of the Freshman team. Miller is heavy and exceptionally fast, but this fall...
