After a scoreless first quarter, the Elis struck for two second period touchdowns as Mike Phillips and Wally Pflug scored. Early in the third period Mike Green sprung free on a trap play and romped 87 yards...
...Garen's job is highly competent, if not brilliant profound, and the same can be said of three of his actors: George Maharis (Green Eyes), Vic Morrow (Lefranc), and Athan Karras (Guard). The fourth actor is Harold Scott '57, and his Maurice is brilliant or very near it. Even allowing for his substantial growth as an artist since he first played the part, his performance is evidence that the best Harvard acting is easily at home on the professional stage.

Interviewed at their training hideout deep in the Green Mountains, their chaperone and captain stated that "the Kirkland House Arson and General Hooraw Society has offered to protect us with a squad of Pinkerton men, and besides, can't you see what would happen if some cops tried to arrest us right there in the middle of the Stadium? Gentlemen, we have faith that if such an outrage was threatened, Harvard undergraduates would not sit idly...
