...group of guards capable of stopping the line bucks of such powerful backs as those now tearing up Worcester, Hanover, and New Haven turf. Simonds started last year as a tackle but was shifted to guard before the season was over was one of the mainstays of the strong Crimson forward defense. Like Captain C. A.
