A Yardling soccer team lacking both depth and aggressiveness may find the going rough against Dartmouth here this Friday.

Since the freshmen have already lost their first game, 3 to 2, at Exeter last Wednesday, they have no chance of equalling the record of last year's undefeated squad. Yardling Coach Poley Guyda attributed the relative weakness of this year's eleven to lack of reserves and to less experience players.

Guyda explained that Exeter won because the freshmen lost their accuracy and began to pass wildly after the first quarter. "The team didn't have enough drive," Guyda added. "Instead of forcing the man with the ball to act, it stayed back and allowed him to plan his next move."

Nevertheless, Guyda feels that he has the material for a potentially good team. He cited Floyd Malloy as the sparkplug of an otherwise average squad. Malloy, a left fullback, is a tall, aggressive competitor, who plays an excellent offensive and defensive game and controls the ball skillfully. The right fullback spot will be held by either Larry Pratt or John Welsch, both dependable men on defense.

Art Atkinson, George Robinson, and John Kirkendall play left, center, and right half respectively. Robinson, the playmaker of the team, leads Guyda's short passing attack.

Guyda ranks goalies Dick Pille and John Adams on an even par. Both are tall and can get off a long kick after a save.

Insides Bill Stone and John Hamlin from the backbone of the line. Stone, who booted one of the Crimson's goals against Exeter, has "a knack" of getting points," scoring frequently during scrimmage. Hamlin's main assets are his passing and adeptness in maneuvering the ball.

Walcott Tuckerman, who made the second goal against Exeter, has a "great" soccer instinct and "should be quite a center forward once he develops a hard shot to match his wonderful ball control," Guyda said.
