...loss of Robertson would have been damaging to the Crimson's hopes of defeating Cornell this Saturday at Ithaca. The lanky junior's replacement, sophomore Bill Bellows who did a competent job filling in for the second half last weekend, broke his collar-bone Monday in practice and will be out for several weeks...

Across the street is the Pennant Grille. When the Sox clinched the pennant two Sundays ago, the Grille broke loose in a wild brawl that brought half a dozen mounted police men galloping to the scene. Now the Grille is almost empty--the television off, the jukebox playing a tinny polka. Huge autographed photos of former Red Sox stars line the walls Ted Williams, Pumpsie Green, Johnny Pesky, Dom DiMaggio-but the men at the bar are discussing boxing. "You know goddamn well we're going to be up there again next year," a drunk in a back booth shouts...

If there were any lingering effects, they certainly did not show. Boston's one real hit was a fluke homer by Pitcher Jose Santiago; only six other Red Sox batters even got to first, and in the strikeout column stood ten big Ks. With...

...wasn't until the 14-minute mark in the first period that the Crimson broke the scoring ice. Richie Hardy, the sophomore center halfback who has been a very pleasant surprise for Munro so far this year, passed through a pack of Techmen in front of their goal. Harvard inside Bruce Detora kicked the ball toward the goalie, Jeff Reynolds, who batted it right into the waiting foot of Ahmed Yehia. A second later, Yehia had tallied his fifth goal of the young season...
