...Lawrence F. O'Donnell '49, a former CRIMSON editor, now at the Harvard Law School, undertook the tedious chore of enlisting Harvard sympathies for a Boston election. Partly because of the cosmopolitan group here and more because of an apathy even among the Boston residents, the work was slow. Now, O'Donnell reports, there is more interest in Hynes here, but there is still lots of room for anyone who wants to join the group.

On a technical level, it was a "stunted" defense, wherein the Green backerups charged right into the holes even before the play opened, mangling the blocking assignments and wreaking havoc on the slow-opening Crimson offense. An excellent set of defensive halfbacks and a good safety man permitted Tuss McLaughry to treat the traditional concept of line backing this cavalierly...
