With Beatrice working left on pitchouts from Smerczynski, Harvard began to drive upfield. On a second and five from the 47, Smerczynski was sacked and limped off the field. Joe Lahti then entered the game and immediately ossed a 17-yd. bullet that Richie Horner snared with a leaping grab at the sidelines on the Big Red 40-yd. stripe...
...drive then died--again with a Harvard miscue--as Paul Connors fumbled the handoff from Lahti on a slant right. Cornell's Mike Cobb jumped on it at the Harvard 45. The Big Red proceeded to roll once again, racking up big rushing yardage. An incomplete Ryan-to-Decker first-down toss at the Harvard 25 again brought out kicker Rejda for the field goal try. But this time he missed from 32 yards...

A key third and two at Harvard's 32 became disaster when the Crimson clipped and made it a third and seventeen.
