...line coach. It is enough to say that Captain Bill Stack, at center, looks to be as good as any pivot man in the Ivy League. Flanking him are a pair of Junior guards, Cape Burnam and Jim Dern, both of whom won their letters last year. This trio leaves little to be desired, and Bulldog enemies should find it difficult to avance far on this sector...
