Underdogs triumph as
Porter to Thompson
passing threat clicks
A highly touted Harvard aggre
gation fell before the underdog
Yale team 6 to 0 yesterday after
noon in the first scrimmage of the
spring practice season.
Coach Biff Jones started two
evenly balanced lineups, so that
scoring was possible only when
the second teams took the field.
With the subs in it was only
short time until the Yale squad
pushed the oval across on a sus
tained drive featured by a 25 yard
pass from George Porter to Theos
Thompson and the plunging ability
of Kenneth Simmons, diminuitive
halfback, who scored the day's
only touchdown.
Starting the contest was a Har
vard team composed of George
Seeman and Ray Prochaska, ends;
Forrest Behm and Royal Kahler
tackles; Warren Alfson and
Wayne Blue, guards; and Bob
Ramey, center. In the backfield
was Walt Luther, substituting for
Bob DeFruiter, an influenza vie
tim, Roy"Cowboy" Petsch, Hermie
Rohrig, and Vike Francis.

posed of Jack Ashburn and Bob

ard Muskin and Clarence Hern
don, tackles; Hub Monsky and
George Abel, guards; Bob Burruss
center. Theos Thompson, Bus
Knight, Harry Hopp, and Jacob
Ferguson made up the backfield
foursome.
The Harvard first team made
consistent yardage against the
underdog Yale eleven yet were
unable to reach pay dirt. With the
inception of the second elevens
the tables were turned and Yale
scored. The backfield combination
of Kenneth Simmons, George Por
ter, and Ray Smith, aided by
Theos Thompson of the first team,
combined to make the winning
score. Opening the holes for this
quartet was a line composed of
Burdctte Wertman and Glenn
Schluckebier, ends; Sam Schwartz
kopf and Francis Leik, tackles;
Adna Dobson and Arlo Klum,
guards, and Bob Burruss, center.
