"Harvard Has a Wonderful Pair of Ends, but the Rest of the Line Is Not So Hot," Remarked Vermont Player--Bell Is Admired

"Harvard has a wonderful pair of ends but the rest of the line is not so hot," is a remark made by one of the Vermont players to a CRIMSON reporter in the locker room Saturday afternoon after the game. "Both of the first string ends are marvelous on the defense and our passer rarely had adequate time to get rid of the ball before one or the other or some times both had nailed him with a fierce, hard tackle. They are good on the offense too, and ought to worry future opposing backfields a lot."

The concensus of opinion, however among all the Vermont players was that the rest of the line did not nearly measure up to that of Columbia, whom the invaders had played the week before, and that the University line played more like "a bunch of school kids" than any thing else. "Pratt and Turner," as one of the brawny Vermonters remarked, "weren't nearly what they were cracked up to be. Pratt looked pretty good but he played too high on the defense."

"Yes, that may all be true," put in one of the backfield as the gingerly started towards the showers, "but how that boy Bell can tackle. He was right in the middle of every play."

All of the visitors were unanimous in their praise of J. P. Crosby '28. A. F. French '29. David Guarnaccia '29, and H. W. Burns '28. "They look most impressive in both offense and defense," commented one of the invading linesmen.

The Vermonters also agreed that the courtesy and help which they had received from the crimson managers and their assistants and also the sportsman ship on both the field and in the locker room was remarkable.
