In the third quarter, Syracuse's dusky Wilmeth Sidat-Singh, reputedly the only Hindu footballer in the U. S., caught a pass from his teammate, Olympic Sprinter Marty Glickman, faded back and hurled the ball high over the Cornell tacklers, apparently into space but actually into the waiting hands of the same Marty Glickman, who a few plays later was able to make his second touchdown of the day. Syracuse 14, Cornell...
