Varsity right halfback Charley Steele rivaled Ekpebu in effectiveness. Steele excelled on defense, and his sharp, accurate passes helped keep the ball in Tufts territory most of the game. Marsh McCall and Bill Rapp, Steele's halfback partners, were instrumental in foiling Tufts' spasmodic offensive efforts...

Tom Bagnoli and Bob Forbush are equally talented in the nets...

Rapp, the Crimson's center half, heads a varsity backfield that has ranged from excellence to mediocrity all season long. Marsh McCall and Charlie Steele will be the wing halves, while Bill Driver has recovered sufficiently from his ankle injury to be used in reserve today...
