Early in the contest it did not seem unlikely that the Bruins could upset Harvard. Goalie Burns, on whom the Crimson had scored eight times before, was impenetrable. He weathered a two-man deficit in the opening period and gained strength as the game went on, turning away ten shots in the first period, 18 in the second, and 19 in the third for a total of 47 saves...

Humphrey, long tormented by his low marks among college students but helped by the leadership of organized labor, got a far better reception from kids at Malone College in Canton, Ohio, than among the steelworkers in western Pennsylvania. Though still...
