Dick McIntosh will pair with Ekpebu at wing, and John Mudd will be the other inside. The halfback line of Marsh McCall, Bill Rapp, and Charlie Steele should give Jerbasi and his partners at least an even battle, and Lanny Keyes and Tim Morgan at fullback will take some of the sting from the Penn attack. Still harboring the memory of his 1957 varsity baptism, when Penn tallied four times in one period against him, goalie Tom Bagnoli will be hard to score on this morning...

...Abelman, though, as Muni portrays him, is magnificent. A sort of lower Flatbush Thoreau, he has spent most of his 68 years fighting the 'galoots' ("people who take, and give nothing in return"), and proving that he, at least, is uncorrupted by the 20th century mania for money.
