Halfback
No. 29
North Carolina State
"Alex is a halfback who runs like a fullback and nails passes like an end. A series of injuries curtailed some of his 1959 activities. He gained 250 yards as a carrier and 381 as a pass receiver.
Alex was first drafted by Washington in '53 but he failed to impress the coaches. He went to the Canadian League where he was a top player for two seasons, becoming a Giant in '55.
Born in Kearney, New Jersey, Alex is a bread-and-butter banger who gets the call when clutch yardage is needed."
