...punter, standing 15 yds. back of the line of scrimmage, is safe any more. Kickers who used to count on 1.5 sec. to get the ball away now find that they must boot it within 1.2 sec.; this season in the N.F.L., no fewer than ten punts and 28 field-goal attempts have been deflected by onrushing defenders...

Because of Singleterry, almost the whole first half was played in Crusader territory, but Harvard was unable to shift its offense out of neutral. The Crimson got close enough for one field-goal try, but the kick by Jim Reynolds was short and to the left.
