After scrambling to a first down only to fumble, Keyte came back to complete two passes to Jerry Rappaport at the close to the third quarter, putting Harvard on the Brown four yardline. Al Altieri plowed across the line four plays later to put six more points on the board for the Crimson and Tony Cimmarusti added the extra point...

Penicillin would save her, but the Army held the existing supply of the wonder drug. Paul phoned the Surgeon General, talked him into releasing the antibiotic, and had it rushed to the hospital in a Journal-American radio car.
