Princeton's Harold Rabinovitz defeated Tom Loring 6-4, 6-4 at number four and Bill Colson rallied from a 5-3 first-set deficit to dominate Harvard's Harris Masterson at number one, 7-6, 6-3. But Crimson freshman John Ingard whipped Mike Shapiro, 7-6, 6-3, at number five, and co-captain Chris Nielsen dumped Brad Wyche...
Meanwhile, Colson's younger brother Dean and Ken Lindner were fighting an epic match at the second spot, and Randy Barnett was extending Princeton's Rich Rampell into a third set at number five.

...Ingard and Nielsen couldn't hold together at the last, and the Princeton twosome won the final set, 6-4, giving the Tigers the fifth point they needed for the match. Moments later Masterson and Lindner, playing brilliantly, rallied to take a second set tie-breaker from the feline Colson brothers and broke them in the third to earn a magnificent 6-7, 7-6, 6-3 triumph. Sadly Barnett and Loring had beaten Rampell and Doug Shaeffer at third doubles, 6-3, 7-6, making Harvard's near miss all the more frustrating...
Tiger Captain Bill Colson is back for his third year at first singles, and his brother Dean, a sophomore, has moved in at number two. Harold Rabinowitz did not play singles against Dartmouth yesterday and may be at less than full strength, but Harvard's Inguard will still be a definite underdog...
...Colson brothers will be tough to beat at first doubles, especially if Lindner's shoulder is still bothering him, but Harvard should have the edge at second and third doubles against Shapiro and Rabinowitz and Rampell and Doug Shaeffer...
