...part, Yovicsin will have only 33 men ready to play, the smallest opening day squad in recent years. Neither of his second-team ends, Hal Keohane and Stu Hershon, will be available. Keohane was rushed to a hospital yesterday with a suspicion of appendicitis, and Hershon will be observing Yom Kippur. Another end, John Soucek, will be in uniform but will not play. All the other players will be ready, although sophomore center Carl Framke, still out of condition after an appendectomy, will probably not see action...
Behind this foursome, Yovicsin will have Dick McLaughlin and Ron Johanson at quarterback; Charles Leamy and Marsh Levin at left half; Albie Cullen and Bill Crowley at right half; and Stan Merkel, Dave Cappiello, and Tony Marlow at fullback...
...League opener, and unless injuries exploit the lack of depth, it could upset the odds. One distinct advantage the Crimson will enjoy is that of familiarity; Harvard has been watching Lefty James' football for quite a few years, and did see this team in action last Saturday, while Yovicsin's brand will be new to the Ithacans. James frankly said yesterday that he was not too sure what to expect, although he imagined that the Crimson's weight advantage up front would indicate a running attack...

They felt obligated to maintain the good old Cornell spirit of getting as drunk as possible and letting nature taking its course after that.

This, too, has been duly noted...
Despite inexperience and lack of depth, the Crimson could come through for an upset win in John Yovicsin's Ivy League debut
