...mistake' came near the end of the first half, just as Harvard had begun to turn around the URI-dominated game. Ram forward Mario Pereira slipped past fullback Bob Carey, took a pass from Dave Names and, in the confusion, lined the first goal past Crimson goalkeeper Fred Herold, who played a great game as usual...

Noiret also shows up in MY FRIENDS, a film begun by the witty, raucous Pietro Germi (Divorce-Italian Style), who collaborated on the script but died after hardly a week of filming in 1974, at the age of 60.
