Freshman Football 'A' Team Faces Andover Away Today

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Coach Bob Maragarita and the Harvard freshman football team bow into the Crimson football picture at 2 p.m. this afternoon when the freshman eleven takes the field against a traditionally strong Phillips Academy team at Andover.

This promises to introduce a new type of freshman sytem, not so interested in winning, but more in producing varsity material for next year. There is little doubt, however, that the group traveling to Andover today is going there on business.

The Blue appeared strong in their initial game last Saturday as they rolled over an outmanned Suffield Acadamy team, 48 to 0. Andover athletic director Edward Shea terms the team "very well rounded, with a lot of spirit. There aren't many outstanding stars, but as a unit they'll give a good account of themselves."

Substitutions Unlimited

Margarita plans to play as many boys today as possible. "We're taking four full teams and I want to see most of the boys in action." The young coach did, however, name a tentative first string. The line shapes up with Bob Cochran and Jim Ross at ends, Stan Pfahl and Bernie Kafka at tackles, guards Herb Grossman and Tim Anderson, and Pete Stern at center. Stern won the starting nod over Chuck Wood and Bill Toohey, although the latter two can be expected to see plenty of action. The backfield has Tom Cambell at quarterback. Joe Conzelman and Frank White at the halfback positions and Bob Albert at fullback.
