Barton took the shot, a drive from the pivot position, and the score was tied 53-53. Scully, however, hit two more fouls and Harvard led again. Then came the key play. Steve Spahn of Dartmouth missed a short jump, Scully wrestled the ball free, dribbled down court, and whipped in a jump shot from the foul line. Gene Augustine's two free throws offset Coker's jump in the waning seconds...

Just as Faulkner locates the center of a writer's philosophical contribution in the writer's official statements of belief, he also recognizes the individual rather than society as the pivot of moral action. Harvard, product and producer of so many individuals of moral courage could have hardly desired a more honorable or a safer keeper of its place in the imaginative literature of America that The Sound and the Fury.
