The choice paid off within three minutes, as the Crimson was forced to punt and Bruce McIntyre's weak kick, held up by the wind, traveled only six yards. On the Elis first play from scrimmage, quarterback Tom Singleton faked to fullback Bob Blanchard and handed to halfback Ken Wolfe, who went 41 yards for a touchdown behind blocks from Mike Pyle, Ben Balme, and John Hutcherson...

Two times week's game Will centered the to Singleton quite high, forcing quarterback to run. Once he saved by a Princeton off-side the other time he took off tackled 24 yards and a first latter...
...that only people the East will be able to see the game as the NCAA regional television game of the week. Many people the Chicago area would be watching with special attention.
