80 BOSTON SUNDAY GLOBE OCTOBER 3, 1982 EG hoHs'oi Irmy mies to dump i v-r TZZ stv r'k Harvard drive By Joe Concannon Globe Staff 4 If, 1 play late in the first half. That touchdown made up for; another drive that expired when Army's Kevin Murphy picked off Allard's short toss on the 2-yard line. Bob Wood recovered a fumbled, handoff on Harvard's 40 three mln-. utes into the third quarter and a 29-yard pass put the ball on the Crimson 11. With fourth and two at the 3.

Craig Stopa kicked a field goal for a 10-7 lead. Harvard responded conservatively, notably when coach Joe Res-tic chose to punt on fourth and 2, feet from midfleld. Three times in the period Harvard had a first down around midfleld but did not threaten. Allard fumbled when blindslded on the first play of the final quarter, and Army moved, almost in slow motion, for the decisive touchdown. Dowri 10 points with four mln--utes remaining and its offense in reverse gear.

Harvard almost stole a victory. During its 93-yard drive Allard completed five passes, the final one 24 yards to Wally Rutecki alone in the left corner of the end zone. Harvard's two-point attempt failed but its onside kick did not and Allard was back under center at midfleld with 94 seconds to play. He almost pulled it off. too, but a shoe-string tackle tripped him up at the Army 16 when he seemed to be running free to the goal.

Allard had three more shots with 29 ticks left on the clock and on the final play tight end Ed Far-rell appeared clear on the 5-yard line but the ball was low," said Porter, who also came, up with two Interceptions. Andrie, who accounted for a good chunk of; Yale's yardage with 101 yards on 27 carries, 15 yards on two recep-, tions. two punt returns for 23, yards and three kickoff returns for 51 yards, left and never returned. "I was trying to cut inside." he" said, "and he (Porter) nailed me." With Andrie watching from the sidelines, quarterback Joe Dufek. was caught for a 2-yard loss and, on fourth and four from the 35., Porter Co.

stopped tight end Ron Jadin shy of the first down. "I was scared." said Porter. "1 didn't think I did. It was five or six inches short (of the first down) and I was really nervous." Yale's defenses were set to stop, the outside option game that wrecked Dartmouth last week in a 28-12 verdict. "They did a good job stunting on us.

and their defense was better than we expected," ob. served Carter. "I think our defense did a good job of shutting down their outside game." said Yale coach Carm Cozza. "I saw our de-! fense grow up." -Pete Muldoon. the Crusader's sophomore quarterback, completed four passes for 57 yards In a 69-( yard, 15-play drive, and Sanford.

Dufek stayed entirely on the ground in a third-quarter. 11 -play. 45-yard drive and Andrie went the; final 2 yards over right tackle, to cut it to 7-6. When Jeff Arons' missed the extra point, the possibli-' ity of a tie was dimmed.

Holy Cross in the second year of its football, renaissance and Yale sliding Into a dark age In Its recent history. "I felt." interjected Holy Cross coach Rick Carter, "we were going hunting for a wounded animal, I'm not a big-game hunter, but ve read where the wounded animal Is sometimes the toughest to get" Well.

Carter's unbeaten band from Worcester eventually bagged the wounded and wlnless Bulldogs and escaped with a 10-6 victory be- fore 19.200 yesterday, in the Yale Bowl in a game that was about as exciting as watching milk curdle. If the delightful: show these two teams put on last year in a 29-28 Yale win was a 9 on a scale of 10. this was no more than a 2. Translated, htrwever.Jt marked the first time thf Crusaders have won four in a row to start a season since a 5-0 start in 1978. and It-marked the first time Yale has lost Its first three games to start a season since the sport was first played here In 1872, or six years before Walter Camp.

Yale's glorious 2j-4 run of the past three seasons is but a cheering memory in the face of an 0-3 start to '82. Still, the issue wasn't settled until the Holy Cross defense balled out a punchless offense on Yale's last-gasp, fourth-quarter; bid, and It may have taken a double-team knockout punch by defenders Rob Porter and Tim Galloway to do it. They closed in on Yale's Paul An-drie on a pitch, stopped him two yards shy of a first down at their 33 and knocked him out of the By; Jack Craig Glpbe llWEST POINT. N.Y.

But Harvard turned as fiery as ttielandscape in the final four minutes, going 93 yards for one touchdown and returning to the shadow of Army's goal when time ran out. sf.If there was a moral in the match it was how a game can turn cm a single play, which occurred in the final 13 seconds of the first half when Army's Elton Atkins made a diVing. juggling catch of a pass just before sliding over the back line of the end zone. The 34-yard TD play, the Cadets'- only offensive gesture until then, let them escape at the half tied. 7-7.

i "It was a big play; it sure gave us a lift," Army coach Ed Cavan-augh said later. It was especially timely because the Cadets were still smarting from a 62-8 thumping from North Carolina last week. the play preceding Army's touchdown, quarterback Bryan AI-lem hit Andre Cuerington for 30 yards. Outside of those two gainers. Army's combined run-pass attack in the first half totalled 47 yards.

That's where one of those anonymous support troops, an offensive lineman named Bill Legg. suddenly became famous. Uh, make that notorious. West Virginia's starting center, Dve Johnson, had suffered a sprained ankle in the third quarter. His backup, Andre Gist, was playing on a bad knee and was available tihly for limited duty.

Finally. Legg. who had a bad knee of his own and hadn't snapped the ball In practice all week, was forced to take center stage. "Poor Bill Legg shouldn't even have been in there." said West Virginia coach Don Nehlen. Poor Bill Legg and poor Jeff Hostetler missed connections on the snap and the ball rolled to Pitt's Dan Short at the West Virginia 48.

The Eagles scored on their opening possession and appeared to be headed toward two more first-period scores.

Flutie loosened up the Owls on that first 77-yard march wlth.two quick strikes. 14 yards to Brennan and 24 to Jon Schoen. Then he stayed on the ground for the last 38 yards, gaining nine himself and thumping Biestek and Steve Strachan inside the Temple ends until the latter hurdled over from the 1 with only five minutes gone. When Vic Crawford Intercepted Tim Riordan at Temple's 41 a bit later, things looked easy for the Eagles. But Flutie suddenly lost his touch from first-down position on the Temple 27, threw three bad passes and finally conceded with a punt from the 32-yard line.

And when Kevin Ross Intercepted Flutie on 1 his 5 and ran it out of danger, you could see the to Snow's go-ahead field goal 2:07 into that final; quarter. That 32-yard boot by the transfer student; from Worcester State (his fifth field goal in sev- en attempts since coming aboard the BC wagon; this fall) looked to be the difference in the con-; test until Flutie's surprising scoring run. The 5-foot-10 Natick sophomore had moved BC from its 15 to the Temple 34 with fourj passes. So on second down and 10, Temple wast expecting the pass and blitzed. But Flutie pulled a quarterback draw, starting his then flying up the center and going 34 yards; unscathed.

"Defense was the key to the win, shutting them down in the second half," BC coach Jack Bicknell was to say later. He was correct, for after marching with the second-half kickoff to BC's 28 and just missing on a 47-yard field goal, Temple was not to mount a real threat again until the Eagles were up.
