Consider also that Harvard will be playing right on top of a three-hour bus ride; that fullback Karl Lunkenheimer is till out of action and such key performers as Joe Gould, Dudley Blodget, and Bill Schaefer are physically below par; that Williams boasts an undefeated team which last week ended Middlebury's string of 17 straight regular season wins, and you see why Harvard is clearly the underdog...

Chief Roy Wilkins on TV's Meet the Press, he "ought to be on Madison Avenue. He is a public relations man par excellence, and he abounds in the provocative phrase."
