BOSTON SUNDAY GLOBE October 31, 1976 It was there for Harvard to take 6w Brown took it it. By Harry Eisenberg -Globe Correspondent You needed your pocket calculator to count the mistakes. Eighteen penalties, seven fumbles, four interceptions, uncounted dropped passes. And this was supposed to be the cream of the Ivy League Brown and Harvard. Yet, when all was said and done and Brown had emerged with a 16-14 victory yesterday there was one error that was remembered, one mistake that seemed to have been pivotal.

Brown, leading 9-7 early in the fourth quarter, had to punt from its own 37. Tom Thurow was roughed as he got off a weak kick, allowing Brown to retain possession getting the ball at the Harvard 48. The Crimson held for three plays and Thurow kicked again, this time with the ball being downed at the Harvard three. Two plays later Jim Kubacki fumbled. Brown recovered at the three and scored on the next play.

"A key that roughing the kicker penalty, a key play," said Harvard coach Joe Restic. "We had field position. He didn't get off a very good kick. All we needed was three points. Then we lose our field position, get pinned back in our own end and lose the football." 1 Brown coach John Anderson admitted, "I breathed a little easier after that call." Anderson wasn't breathing quite so easily as the third quarter opened with Harvard ahead, 7-0.

Then Brown started to get its offense into gear. "In the first half we tried to get cur running game going," said An-t cron, "but Harvard took away our insice running attack. That's the best run defense we've faced this year. But we had intended to throw and that's what we came out doing." Quarterback Paul Michalko threw on the first four downs after the second-half kickoff as Brown began maving the football, with Michalko finally throwing a 10-yard scoring pass to Bob Farnham. "We began hitting the curls," covered the curls we hit the slide man underneath." Brown added a 45-yard field goal later in the quarter, then sealed the victory with the fourth-period fumble recovery and touchdown.

"This was just a weird ballgame," Restic said. "It really defies description. There were so many detached tilings you could pick out at different parts of the ball game that could have turned it around. We could have cracked the game open at a couple of points. We just didn't capitalize when we had good field position." One of the stranger developments of the game although nothing Restic does these days should come as a surprise to those who follow Harvard's razzle-dazzle, anything-goes offense was the Crimson's use of the single wing for several plays during the second quarter.

That was soon abandoned for the more traditional triple-slot, man-in-mo-tion stuff, after two snap bobbles, offside and illegal procedure penalties and a sack of (but more often quarterback) tailback Jim Kubacki. "Certainly, we weren't counting on the single wing," Anderson said. "It caught us by surprise, but I think they hurt themselves with that" "Let me tell you," Restic said of the single-wing revival, "it was all there. We just didn't capitalize. I'm just sorry for one thing and that's that we didn't use it more.

We didn't get out of it because it wouldn't do "what we thought it would do. We just got into a position where we had to throw the ball more. "But it was there. Let me tell you. It was all there." v.

so rWWW0 1 rnm-'mmmm fEri1 wmi Dartmouth 34 S5 JV' If Columbia 14 By Jack Craig Globe Staff HANOVER, N.H. While 10,600 enjoyed watching ,7 Dartmouth rumble over Columbia here yesterday, their biggest cheers were saved for late-game up-dates of Brown's squeaker over Harvard, which kept the Eig Creen alive and dangerous for the Ivy League title. And in the Dartmouth dressing room after the igarhe, almost the entire squad was gathered around a radio listening to Ned Martin describe the final seconds 't of Brown's victory, which drew a rousing cheer from athletes because it gives meaning to their visit to -Providence next Saturday to confront Brown. "We just can't make those mistakes next week," Jake Crouthamel said of the victory over Colum bia, which was not quite as routine as the final score might suggest. With 11:45 left to play Columbia had the ball on the Dartmouth 7, third and three, trailing by 13 points.

iThen senior John Muglebee fell on a Columbia fumble, making the big play of his career, because from there i. Dartmouth marched 93 yards to score and assure lumbia of its fourth straight loss. Crouthamel was not exaggerating about his team's Dartmouth had two passes intercepted, lost two fumbles, had a punt blocked and received nine penalty calls en route to its fifth victory in seven games. Still, there were some positive developments. Split end Harry Wilson caught seven passes, giving him 20 in three games.

One of them was pure gold resulting in the Iiirst touchdown of the game, a one-handed grab on the Columbia 12 of a bomb from quarterback Kevin Case Wilson ran in for a touchdown. Yale eludes Cornell, 14-6 By Bob Monahan Globe Staff NEW HAVEN Yale remained tied for first place in the Ivy League here yesterday at Yale Bowl, but not before receiving a scare from an aroused Cornell team, which, pushed the Eli to the limit before bowing, 14-6, before 22,519. Yale, which entered the game with a 5-1 record, was expected to romp over 1-5 Cornell. The oddsmakers in New York figured Yale was 17 points better, and the conservative Boston group figured 13 points. Cornell, down 14-0 after three periods, scored in the fourth quarter on a nine-yard burst around right end by Tim LaBeau.

The point-after attempt failed because of a bad snap from center. There was plenty of time left. The Big Red got possession again and drove from its 25 to the Yale five. That's when' Yale's heralded defense stood extremely tall and held. Yale killed the final 52 seconds.

But what frustrated Cornell was that Yale also had stopped it on the Eli five early in the third quarter, and Yale's alert defense picked off four interceptions. Cornell did move the ball (well against a superior defense and played its best defensive game of the season. Yale's highly regarded John Pagliaro, who scored both of his club's touchdowns on short plunges, carried 20 times, but was held to 63 yards. With 9:20 left in the first quarter, Yale had a third-and-12 situation. Quarterback Stone Phillips faded and spotted speedy John Spagnola far down field.

Phillips gunned him a 62-yarder, and Spagnola was banged out of bounds at the two. On the first play from scrimmage, Pagliaro banged over the middle, and Randy Carter kicked the first of two conversions. The rest of the quarter was strictly a punting contest as neither club could get a' drive going. Yale pulled ahead, 14-0, at 3:10 of the second when Pagliaro clicked again, this time on a one-yarder to climax an eight-play, 50-yard drive. The two big plays in that drive were a 17-yard pass from Phillips to Spagnola and a 26-yarder to Greg Hall which carried to.

the Cornell 10. Late in the second quarter, Cornell's John Riley, a halfback, threw a 39-yard pass to Bob Hendrickson, who carried to the Yale 17. Cornell reached the nine, but was pushed back as Yale held. The Yale crowd gave the defense a standing ovation for that one. Big Red quarterback Jim Hofher went to work midway through the third quarter and sparked a 75-yard drive to the Yale five.

Hofher passed and ran well and the pressure was on Yale. But when Cornell needed the big play, Yale end Pete Bonacum made one of his own and tossed Hofher for a nine-yard loss. Threat ended. Cornell controlled the ball the rest of the way, but couldn't put points on th board. Yale coach Carmen Cozza said: "You have to credit that Cornell team.

They tplayed an inspired game. I was very pleased with our passing game, and I thought Phillips did an excellent job. "I am disturbed over some penalties that we got in critical situations. We can't allow those things. The game was so close," Cozza added.

"As far as pure defense goes, we played pretty well, but not as well as usual. We're better defensive team than what we showed today." Harvard's Bill Emper grabs Brown pass on his own one yard line in thivd quarter and puts an end to one Bruin touchdown drive. Pass was intended for Bob Farnham. (Globe photo by Frank O'Brien) "I'm not kidding, I practice one handed catches," Wilson said. He had two other big catches that set up his team's next two touchdowns, each a difficult grab in a crowd.

The first was for 19 yards to the Columbia four 'that enabled the Big Green to go up 17-0 just before the half. The other put the ball on the Lion's four again, also on a third-down play, for a fourth period period TD Brown turns Crimson blue at Harvard TEAM STATISTICS Brown Harvard FIRST DOWNS: Total is 16 and a 27-7 lead that settled the issue.

Quarterback Bob Graustein i passed seven yards to Jim Cioffredi with 17 seconds left yesterday to lead Pennsylvania to a 10-9 victory over Princeton. Graustein's last minute heroics redeemed a series of mistakes by the quarterback that appeared to assure Princeton a victory. Graustein threw three interceptions and fumbled times to enable Princeton to take a 9-3 lead and $1 blunt three second-half Penn drives. v- But, with one minute and 41 seconds remaining, got the ball on its own 30 and Graustein led the I-Quakers in eight plays to the winning touchdown after running out of time outs on a 24-yard pass to Cioffredi. to the seven with 47 seconds left.

Then he nailed his speeding flanker, Steve Richards, on a 51-yard play.

With the ball at the Colgate nine, Geiger handed off to BU's top rusher, Roger Strandberg, who gained five yards in successive thrusts at a defense which had allowed an average of only 10 points a game. Geiger then delivered a scoring pass to split end Tom Hailey waiting in the end zone's front corner. Bruce Rich added the conversion by placekick for a 7-7 tie with 2:41 to play in the half. Rich then kicked off through the end zone and Col-gale returned to hard labor on offense. The Raiders got a big break on fourth down when Rich, playing safety, fumbled Jerry Andrewlavage's punt and Henry White recovered for the hosts at the BU 37.

Three plays later, Colgate fumbled back to the visitors with linebacker Andy Rakowski pouncing the ball at the Colgate 42. Geiger returned and connected with Hailey 38 yards uway at the Colgate four, and BU quickly signaled timeout with 1:06 remaining. From there, junior halfback Mike Morrison plunged for one yard and then carried Geiger's pitchout the remaining three yards to send BU ahead with 51 seconds left. Rich added the conversion. BU had fine field position throughout the third quarter as Andrewlavage and BU's Matt Silverman waged a long-distance punting duel, but BU's punch slipped to a 2-5 season record.

"We had passing opportunities in the second quarter," noted BU coach Paul Kemp. "Geiger was throwing the ball well then, but he didn't throw well in the second half." Morrison, who replaced Charley Hall early, rein-jured an ankle early in the fourth quarter after gaining 40 yards on seven carries. Strandberg had had 71 yards with 26 carries, and Malverty led all rushers with 81 yards on 15 plyi. By Bill Higdon Utica Observer-Dispatch HAMILTON, N.Y. Colgate quarterback Bob Relph, harrassed most of the game, turned a fierce Boston University pass rush to his own advantage, passing for one fourth-quarter touchdown and running for another yesterday afternoon.

The resulting 21-14 Colgate football victory marked the fifth straight game in which the Red Raiders came from behind in the final quarter. Colgate, 7-0, tallied the equalizing touchdown at 8:59 in ti.e final period on a 65-yard pass play from Relph to sophomore fullback Bruce Malverty. Relph later ran 46 yards off a scrambling effort and set up his winning score on a rollout run from the BU three with 27 seconds left. The Colgate junior quarterback described his big pass to Malverty as a "simple play-action pass. They weie sending so many people at me there just had to be an opening in the secondary.

Malverty usually runs to the middle of the defense for his passes, only this time we had (halfback) Jim Comforti go there and told Bruce to go deep." Malverty, a sensation in the past three games since replacing injured Pat Ilcaly, was alone as he caught Relph's throw at the BU 35. Malverty, who shook loose for a 43-yard TD run off tackle in the first quarter to get Colgate an early lead, scored the winning touchdowns against both Princeton and Lafayette. None of six previous opponents managed a touchdown in the first half, but the aroused Terriers scored a pair off ciuarterback Greg Gcigcr's passes late in the second quarter. With the home team nursing the lead, BU took possession at its 26 following a punt, and Geiger went to work.
