PRINCETON--Harvard's two-year Ivy soccer dynasty is at an end. Princeton, by virtue of a lucky goal that never should have happened, guaranteed itself undisputed possession of the League crown with a 1-0 defeat of the varsity Saturday in Tigertown.

Thus the Crimson's gallant bid to retain its title in the face of prohibitive odds fell short. Coach Bruce Monro's varsity began to fly danger signals in its 7-3 win over Columbia, and it seemed that the roof fell in as the Crimson bowed to Dartmouth, 5 to 3. Still, a triumph Saturday would have kept the Crimson hopes alive, and it almost materialized.

Tigers Score Lone Goal

But a tainted goal by inside Jim Wadsworth at 13:45 of the first period stood up for 70 hard-fought minutes and gave Princeton a 6-0 record and the Ivy title. Even if the Tigers lose their last game to Yale, they are in.

Wardsworth launched a shot from about 15 yards out that sailed right down the middle, straight at Crimson goalie Bob Forbush. Forbush batted the ball twice, but unbelievably, it bounced over his head and into the nets for the goal that meant the game.

In the second period, left wing Mike Kramer and left halfback Bill King controlled their side of the field and initiated Crimson drives that nearly produced scores. Aided at times by inside Tadhg Sweeney, Kramer rambled half the length of the field on several occasions and twice just missed connections on passes to center forward Seamus Malin.

Princeton continued ot use a three-back defense in the second half, and fullbacks Sinclair Hatch and Dan Rifkin and halfback Jim Zug effectively bottled up the middle. Thus, the Crimson had to go to the outside, but in the third period it was right wing Dick McIntosh, instead of left wing Kramer, who led the offense.

Still not entirely at home at wing, McIntosh had some bad moments early in the game. But he picked up considerably, and by the end of the contest could look back on the best game he has ever played.

In the hectic third period, when the varsity threatened to tie the score at any moment, McIntosh was magnificent. Faking and dribbling beautifully, he was unstoppable as he made his way down the sideline through the Tiger defense. His passes and shots were on the mark, but something always happened to foll his attempts.

When the varsity's interior linemen weren't blowing chances, Tiger goalie Mickey Michael managed to stop Crimson shots. Malin came to close on a head-in of a pass from left wing, and right inside Teddy Wendell got off a fine shot that Michel saved. During the third period, rival insides Sweeney of Harvard and Lew van Amerongen of Princeton stood out on defense and showed an equal disregard for opponents in their way.

By the fourth quarter, the varsity was beaten, and only some fine fullbacking by Tim Morgan kept Princeton from scoring. Forbush looked strangely helpless in the nets.

In the freshman contest, Chris O'Hiri tallied several incredible goals to lead the Yardlings to a 9-4 win. The freshmen broke up a 3-3 tie just before halftime and were never in trouble.
