...guard Phil Shaw, who sank 9 of 13 shots, all from 15 feet out or farther, Tufts hit on a fantastic 53 per cent from the field, 27 of 51. Shaw was high scorer with 24 points, but the man who damaged Harvard the most was a lanky 6-6 center, Pete Stanley...

In two terms he received only one day's punishment, and might well have avoided a second rude admonition had it not been for a young lady who came to call...
