The four other leading candidates--juniors Fred Mattucci, Dick Manny, and Walter Johnson, and sophomore Ron Suduiko--have but 32 minutes of varisty time among them, and unless backfield coach Loyal Park can make them into a solid unit, Harvard will have trouble where it has rarely experienced it before...
