STOEKEL PLAYED WELL again against Penn, directing a balanced offense that scored four touchdowns, but Harvard's pass defense was awesomely bad. The Quaker's second string quarterback, Gary Shue, picked apart the secondary for 392 yards and four TD's, and one end alone, Doug Clune, left his coverage groveling in the astro-turf eight times for 284 yards.

Parker's concern stems not so much from fraternal sympathy for Quaker coach Ted Nash as from the fact that the seeding now puts Penn in the same heat with Harvard, not the most desirable morning rival. Were the Quakers seeded either second or third, Harvard's major trial heat opponent would have been Northeastern, with Princeton, Yale and Boston University added for savage amusement. Definitely a less worrisome group...
