The "Beat Vale" signa started going of around Dillen Field House yesterday as the varsity football team knuckled town to start preparations in earnest for is final game of the aqaron Saturday at New Haven.
Contrary to the usual Tuesday procedure, there was no contact work what ever. "We can't afford to get humped up now" explained Art Valpey. Although Dike Hyde and Hal Moffic will probably be ready, the status of Chief Bender, John Coan, and Jim Kenary is still doubtful.
Kenary, out of action since the Stanford game, worked for a short while at defensive halfback but did not participate in the offensive session.
Half and Half
Valpey divided the practice time half and half between offense and defense. The freshmen throw passes as the varsity set up defenses to protect against a Yale passing attack which sent 37 aerials against Princeton last Saturday Bill Henry emulated Yale's Stu Tisdale by working with the freshmen from the T formation quarterback's position. He also saw some defensive duty.
The varsity ran its own passing attack against the jayvees, with tailbacks Jim Noonan, Charlie Rocho, and Carroll Lowenstein doing most of the pitching, and sent its runing game against dummies. Nick Athans alternated with Mofile at wingback in the first string backfield, which also included Henry, Noonan or Roche, and fullback Johnny West. In the constant shifting of backfield personnel, Lowenstein also worked some with the number one unit.
The varsity's defensive line, from left to right, consisted of Stretch Mazzone, Howie Boston, Sam Butler, Will Davis, and Pete Leavitt. The second line included Fred Ravreby, Dick Guidera, Bill Rosenau, Doug Bradice, and Bobby Ray. The backers-up were first Phil Isenberg, Paul O'Brien, and West; then Dave Warden, Jerry Kanter, and Chuck Glynn.
The defensive backfield included halfbacks Carl Bottenfield and Paul Shafer, and safety man Roche. Later, Athans and Roche went to the halfback posts and Noonan became safety man. When Kenary worked at one of the halfback slots, Phil Bolster manned the other and Lowenstein played safety.
