After a frustrating first half, coach Yovicsin started experimenting. He alternated his halfbacks and allowed quarterback Ric Zimmerman to open up the attack.

...situations in the second half, when Harvard needed to put a drive together and take some pressure off its defense, the Crimson offense netted a total of seven yards. On the picture's other side, Harvard made more mistakes on offense than it has in the past, and Cornell quarterback Bill Robertson dropped from his 16-for-20 completion mark against Princeton to a 5-for-20 first-half mark against the Crimson...
