Football, Soccer Teams End Sixth, Fourth in Standings

The Associated Press and the Harvard Athletic Association officially put the padlock on the 1947 fall sports system with final tabulations of the autumn records of Crimson teams released over the post-Thanksgiving weekend. Rating the Quakers from Pennsylvania first in the Ivy League, the AP's standings showed the Crimson in a tie with Brown for sixth place in the League with a record of one win against three losses in Ivy games.

Skippy Minisi, one-time Navy back and current Quaker star, led the League in scoring with 36 points while Venton Yablonski, Columbia's big fullback, counted more points than anyone in the Ivy group if non-Ivy League games are included.
