Harvard was able to break the big play, however, Mark Wheeler, a very fast transfer halfback who ran amuck all afternoon, broke one for a touchdown on the first play of the game. Taking a pitchout from starting quarterback Eric Crone.

...flourishes of his own. The Crimson offense will once again feature multiple sets, backs in motion and a lot of passing. Captain Ted DeMars, last season's rushing leader with 704 yards, will hold down one halfback shot and will handle the bulk of the ball carrying. Transfer Mark Wheeler, back in action after sitting out last year, will start at the other halfback position.

Harvard's running backs performed very capably. Mark Wheeler, a transfer student who played with Sonny Sixkiller at Washington, picked up only 35 yards in nine carries, but his (and the) best run of the day, a twisting 33-yarder good for a TD, was nullified by a penalty.

Mayberg broke a 47-yard touchdown run, while Dart ate up 48 yards in five rushes. Captain Ted DeMars carried the ball only four aimes...
