...last four years, the 1969 football class has been stupendous. Their style, their imagination, their guts need no history book. In their professional excellence, the team inspired pennants, obscenity and full, raucous Bowl audiences. They have brought the Old Blue, with their bulletproof glasses and thick tweed coats, and the skinny long-haired juniors with their glazed eyes together when they couldn't get together anywhere else. The men from Wall Street and the men from Olivia's went to the Bowl together and sat, side by side, loving...
Harvard's defense is the only question mark at this point. Coach Cooney Weiland only has junior Chris Gurry returning from last year's corps. With the loss of Terry Flaman, McManama moved back to the blue line with Gurry, and Skip Freman joined sophomore Dave Jones on the second unit...

On the CBS Sunday Evening News, Harry Reasoner reported the outcome of the game: "Heidi married the goatherder." The ABC Evening News staged its own electronic "bedtime story," with Anchorman Frank Reynolds reading excerpts from Heidi while Sportscaster Howard Cosell repeatedly interrupted with film clips of the game and suitably frantic commentary. Sounding very much like a quarterback caught in his own end zone, NBC President Julian Goodman said lamely: "It was a forgivable error committed by humans who were concerned about children expecting...
