Ben Clime

Benjamin Sidney Clime was born on October 14, 1891, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He attended Central High School in Philadelphia. On November 16, 1912, the Quakers beat Bucknell 14–13. A report published a few days after the game noted that "Ben Clime saved the day for Swathmore. The lanky Captain was a whole team in himself. Time and again he tore through the line for good gains and his dashes around the end were the feature. He gained over half of the ground made by his team, and also put up a wonderful game on the defense. His playing Saturday placed him in line for a place on the All-American team this year." Clime was a multi-year team captain while at Swathmore. ==Professional career==
