...victory for the Harvard cagers, now 2-4 overall, and coach Frank McLaughlin and his charges must still consider it a big win, especially when they canned 17 of 21 free throws. The Crimson had been damaged in its previous contests by their inability to connect from the charity stripe...

...regrets. Nobel-prizewinning Physicist Luis Alvarez, for example, explained forthrightly that he could not subscribe to the Rev. Sun Myung Moon's exotic mixture of "religion, science, economics and politics." But four other Nobel prizewinners were among the 450 scientists, social scientists and theologians -many of a conservative stripe-who went to San Francisco for a three-day conference on "science and absolute values" sponsored by Moon's Unification Church.

Only when he was caught, tackled one yard shy of the goal by Paul Halas and Fred Cordova, did Rupert do something wrong. In a vain attempt to sneak the nose of the football over the goal stripe, he forgot to hold onto it, and as he lay on the hard polyturf of Schoelkopf Field for that one instant in the fourth quarter here Saturday afternoon, a man without a ball, he struck an image for all Cornell.
