...brightest spot on the defense was the performance by Harvard's two inexperienced but quick safeties, Bill Tyson and Tom Williamson. This fellow Marshall had thrown eight long touchdown passes in the last 41/2 games last year, but Saturday he could muster only 120 yards and no touchdowns. He also had two passes intercepted, one by Tyson on the goal line to halt a Lafayette drive...
...Adam is a specialty act salted with social protest. It is played at a feverish pitch by Sammy Davis Jr., who has surrounded himself with such Negro performers as Ossie Davis, Louis Armstrong and, as the girl in his cheering section, a sunburst of shy sepia charm named Cicely Tyson. A handful of jazzmen (Mel Torme, Kai Winding, Nat Adderly) make the score swing but aren't much help otherwise, except as evidence that when Sammy plays a good gig, his pals can be sure of work. Even Frank Sinatra Jr. sits in, tussling with a sappy role...

The Yardlings will depend on the running of Gatto, John Tyson, and Joe McKinney, and the passing combination of quarterback Will Stargel and burly end Steve Ranere. Center Charlie Ames anchors a big offensive line that should give Stargel and his understudy, George Lalich, plenty of time to spot open receivers...

However, John Tyson will return to the secondary today and the Yardlings could be the first team to blunt Yale's vaunted passing attack...
