...military students seem less Edwardian than determined. Air Academy-man Hosmer (No. 1 in his class) is backed by West Pointers Jim Ray (No. 2 in his class), Stan Karanowski (No. 3), Powell Hutton (No. 4), Mike Gillette (No. 23) and Pete Dawkins (No. 10), West Point's celebrated Ail-American halfback and first captain of cadets. Dawkins will play Rugby only for his intramural Brasenose College team ("not with a splash, but gradually"). Hosmer will do some wistful spare-time flying ("All my classmates are in pilot training"). The real job is Oxford's challenging labor...
...gave the Crimson a scare in 1911, holding the powerful varsity to one touchdown in a 5-3 Harvard triumph. In 1911, the varsity suffered its third defeat under Haughton's coaching, as it dropped an 18-15 decision to the Carlisle Indians, led that season by the immortal Jim Thorpe. The big Indian ran well against a tough Harvard line, and drop-kicked four field goals and one conversion to give the Carlisle eleven its winning margin...

The next fall, Harvard succumbed to the paralyzing Dartmouth offense led by halfbacks Jim Burke and Jake Crouthamel and lost, 26 to 0. Nevertheless, Crimson adherents could claim a larger victory in 1957--a glorious triumph in the Battle of the Big Drum. It was in that year that a group of Dartmouth students nearly succeeded in hauling away the Band's big brass drum, only to be halted by Band members wielding trumpets...
Harvard pass defense may get the boost it needs today with the return of Jim Nelson, defensive hero of the Bucknell game, and Albie Cullen, a good runner but an even better defenseman...
...freshman meet, the Yardlings should triumph. UMass' number one freshman, Dave Hasbrock, ran two and three-fourths miles against UConn and B.U. in a fair 15:02. The Crimson's Ed Hamlin should take first today, and Glen Rodgers, Jim Bonnar, and Tony Voorheis should provide ample support...
