...Harvard got little out of the stand when a 19-yd. Duke Millard punt set Columbia up for its first and only points of the day. Against a Harvard defense that was beginning to sag, Conroy used one play to go 43 yards on a bomb to Steve Wallace for a 19-6 score, just two minutes into the final period. Mazur's kick made...
Defensive depth worries, though, are mild compared to the team's most dramatic problem--the kicking game, where Harvard doesn't even have a full first team. Senior Duke Millard and sophomore Steve Flach should be able to handle the punting: both have had some experience. But the Crimson has no placekicker. That's right, no extra points, field goals or kickoffs...
...powerful. Little experience behind the top men. Defensive backfield Last year's leading tackler, Scott MacLeod, leads a stable unit bolstered by lettermen Mike Jacobs, Terry Trusty and adjuster John Casto. Loss of Steve Potysman and Fred Cordova at the corneres leaves a vacancy outside. Kicking game Senior Duke Millard and sophomore Steve Flach should handle the punting chores.

Overall A close-knit, high-spirited team with a fairly solid defense...

William McKinley, says Edmund Morris in The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt, seemed the perfect picture of a President - but only "from the neck up." McKinley also owned stumpy legs, pulpy hands and a commanding gaze that was mobilized, says Morris, by a tormented effort...
...Democrats took over in 1974, and finally, this year, the Republican gubernatorial nomination. People like him, and many will vote for him--some because he likes the death penalty, some because he favors tax reform, many because he just looks so much like a governor, a stately, silver-maned Millard Fillmore-clone. Back in Montauk, where the fishermen and duck farmers and county lawyers know him best, they will vote for him because they know what Perry is all about. Like so many of the folks back home, Perry hates The City...
