Crimson defensemen Bob Anderson and Harry Howell and goalie Bob Bland were named to the first all-Ivy sextet. Selected from Harvard to the second team were forwards Jim Dwinell, Dave Morse, and Stew Forbes. Anderson and Forbes, this year's captain, are seniors; Bland, Dwinell, and Morse are juniors; and Howell is a sophomore...
With Anderson, Howell and Bland on the first team are forwards Bob Moore and Jake Haertl of Dartmouth and John Cook of Princeton--the League's three eading scorers. Moore, a senior, and Cook, a sophomore, tied for the League's individual scoring lead with 24 points each. Haertl, a senior, trailed by only one point with 23 for second place in the scoring race...

...second period Bland took the spotlight away from Forstman, turning away six shots including one by John Schley, who broke away on a solo flight and faked cleverly from Bland's right to left before shooting from a few feet out. Yale fought especially hard during the second period, and tried hard to capitalize on two Harvard penalties which overlapped and for 26 seconds dwindled the Crimson attack to a forward and two defensemen...
