Put them on the field for thispmidseason ritual and they are suddenly transformed Into Ivy contenders. Bringing a misleading 1-3 record Into the game in Cambridge against 2-1-1 Harvard, the Big Green made it five in a row in this series with a 28-12 victory over the befuddled Crim son, whose offense was so unsettled after the By Ernie Roberts 2 Special to The Globe "Maybe 1 am so short," mused sweat-streaked but smiling Leonard Fontes 2d, "that.i the Harvard quarterback could not see me."

Ernst had played at fullback In this confusing week, but went to wingback and caught four for 43 yards and ran 21 times for 102. He and O'Brien were Harvard's offense. Dartmouth quarterback Frank Polsinello, who completed five of six for 134 yards in the first quarter, found a favoring wind to his liking and went with it. "We thought we'd be able to throw If we got the time," he said. "The wind was a factor all day.

We thought somewhere In the game we could throw a long one. It came earlier than we thought." The first of two bombs went to Jack Daly, arguably the Ivy's best receiver. He ran deep and caught up with Polsinello's throw for a 53-yard gain to the Crimson 12. "I knew he'd have his guy beat," said Polsinello. "I threw It before he came out of his break.

With Jack, you Just have to throw It out there." On third down, Daly jumped to haul in Polsinello's 9-yard touchdown pass. Rich Lena started the next scoring drive with a 33-yard burst out to the Crimson 46. On third and 12 from the 46. Polsinello went to Mattey Lopes. He had to wait for this one.

The Bruins (2-2-1) scored two touchdowns in the second half for a 14-3 victory over Cornell, which now has only a tie with Harvard to show for five games. Cornell's first offensive series was to be Its only scoring one at Brown Stadium, culminated by Peter Baccile's 29-yard field goal. Cornell had moved from Its own 10 to the Brown 1 1 before settling for the kick.

The key play was an improvised 25-yard run by Jamie Potkul. who gained. 117 yards In 15 carries.

Potkul was trapped at the line of scrimmage but broke left and raced to the Cornell 2 before being tossed out of bounds. Heffer-nan's touchdown came on the next play. Brown put It away midway In the final period when quarterback Joe Potter scampered 29 yards on a keeper play right. He cut back sharply and deked two more tacklers to score standing up. Potter had a versatile game, running for 84 yards and completing 16 of 29 for 163 yards.

"Potter Is a complete quarterback that you rarely aee In the Ivy League now." Cornell coach Maxle Baughan said later. There were 17 punts. 10 by Cornell. In this game of constant ball exchanges. But the Brown defense had much to do with the excltemcnt-free game, especially by Its second-half domination.

That Is promising for the Bruins, out-scored. 64-28. in the second half In Its previous four games. It Is a timely awakening because Drown travels to Worcester this Saturday to play undefeated Holy Cross. Ait.
