...hand and still have fingers left, but regardless, football reigns supreme at Harvard. The only real arena is Harvard Stadium and the only real gladiators are the starting football players. The best proof of this was last spring, when opposing baseball teams would refer to Brown as "the quarterback," when he had been one of the better pitchers in the Ivies for two years...
LARRY BROWN, senior quarterback. A third team All-American baseball pitcher in the offseason, the right-handed signalcaller will look to improve on his impressive signalcalling performance of '78 (see profile, page 42).

Split end Mark Farnham, league leader in receptions, is a sure all-Ivy candidate, and backs JoJo Jamiel and Marty Moran are both swift and solid.

All Penn does is run, and an experienced interior line should be more than adequate. Penn gained a school record 2504 yards on the ground last autumn and looks to improve on that this year...
