six straight first downs the last of them on the Cornell 1 and sent Langhurst driving through the middle from there Scott added the extra point and it looked very much as if the Western Conference team was on its way to revenge for last year's trimming But the steam went out of them in a hum and Cornell regained its composure and with it control of the game Halted once when Scott knocked down a fourth-down pass the Ithacans came racing back the next time they had the ball and covered 47 yards in three plays the last 33 on it forward pass from Hal McCullough to Jim Schmuck which paid off

McCullough late in the third quarter Three plays by this sparkplug covered 4 yards and took the ball to the 5 from where Lou Butz lino wPnt over on the first play of the final period McCullough came back in again and set up the clincher by making one of Cornell's five pass interceptions which he returned from the Ohio 37 to the 15 From there it was Bufalino again all the way on a reverse that started wide then cut back over the Buckeye right tackle Drahos who together with Bud Finneran at center and Matuszczak played 60 minutes kicked the extra points after both of these touchdowns and
