Despite a last quarter spurt by a spirited Indian squad, Coach Henry Lamar's Jayvee eleven finally emerged on the long end of a 19 to 13 count in a game played yesterday afternoon on rain-soaked Soldiers Field.
As they entered the third quarter, the Crimson led 13 to 0 and shortly afterward a long pass by Cliff Helman to Hal Tine made it 19 points for the Lamarmen. At this point, the boys from Hanover launched a spectacular passing attack that accounted for two touchdowns in short order and turned what had seemed for a time like a rout into a hard-fought contest that wasn't decided until the final gun.
Helman Leads Crimson
It was all Helman for the Crimson. His running was outstanding and his passing accounted for two of the touch-downs, George Haydock snaring one to score in the first quarter besides the one to Tine.
The other Harvard tally came in the second stanza when Lo Withington went over on a short line buck. Ted Lyman, down from the varsity, accounted for the only point after touch-down with a kick square between the uprights.
Led by Lin Townsend, who played a fine game at end, the Indians opened their passing attack late in the third period and the Crimson backs were helpless against it. Only the final gun prevented more Dartmouth scoring.
