The biggest unknown in the backfield is 214-pound Gianelly. He was well suited for the power play in the single wing, but whether or not he can adapt the speed necessary for the A-Formation will not be known until this afternoon.

In the lines, there is little to choose. Tufts has an advantage in experience with its first line made up of six juniors and one senior, but the Crimson's front wall is potentially the strongest in recent years, led by 207-pound Captain Ted Metropoulos.

At guard, Metro follows the pattern set two years ago by Tim Anderson, and continued by Bill Meigs last season. He is strong, and can be very tough on defense. The other guard is a very promising sophomore named Hal Anderson. Standing 6-3, and weighing 218 pounds he will be very hard to push around.

Another tough sophomore named Bob Shaunessy, a hulk you will not forget for a long time, will start at left tackle, and sophomore Pete Briggs may very well start at the other tackle, unless junior Dave Schein beats him out.

The two weakest positions last year are again sore spots this season. Without much in experience at ends, Jordan brought former quarterback Phil Haughey in to play the position left vacant. In pre-season practice, Haughey has been very encouragaing to the coaching staff, but he is known to be fragile, and an injury would really hurt the Crimson. Tom Hooper will play the other end.

Steady and dependable Mary Lebovitz will be the center. He is fully recovered from his broken leg last season
