Other standouts Saturday were Line Coach Ted Schmitt's 814-pound tackle quartet of Bill Frate, John Maher, Orville Tice, and Dick Koch. The end play was also good, with Bob Cochran in the limelight again and with Bob Morrison playing perhaps his most and best ball of the season...
After Gianelly picked up three yards on first down, reserve tailback Bing Crosby headed off tackle and reached the two before the ball was knocked out of his arms into the end zone and finally recovered by Cochran for a touchdown. End Joe Ross, who had led the line charge on Agnew, booted the extra point giving the varsity its 7-6 half-time lead...
...made by the Crimson second line. While it was abundantly clear that a substitute line does not a stone wall make, its offensive play was good--so good, in fact, that one no longer continues to take the work of Bill Meigs, Orville Tice, John Maher, Tim Anderson, Bob Cochran, Bill Frate, et al, almost for granted. The quality of their work is statistically evident, for they opened holes often enough to allow a predominantly sopho- more backfield to rack up 20 first downs. And most of those were gained without the services of sophomore tailback Matt Botsford, who suffered...
...under center in the A-formation. The 6'4" sophomore's first two tries were incomplete, but then he connected with another sophomore, tail-back Jimmy Joslin, for a 16-yard gain to the Green 46. After Cowles made two yards Haughey fired a 36 yard pass to Bob Cochran who caught the ball as he fell between the defenders on the eight. After a Sam Fyock to Jerry Marsh pass which had put the ball on the goal line was nullified by a penalty, Fyock hit Cochran on the four, and the senior end drove over for the score...
...completed ten of 15 for a total of 136 yards. The varsity, mean-while, surprised the large crowd of 32,000 by trying 22 passes; it completed seven for a total of 106-yards--36 of this total coming on a long pitch from Phil Haughey to Bob Cochran, Dartmouth was able, however, to take advantage of three interceptions, while the Crimson falled to intercept any of Beagle's passes. Beagle called a surprisingly conservative game, rarely passing in his own territory. Despite the superiority of Harvard's line he used line plays rather than risk on interception...
