"Hey, weenie arm, yoo hoo!" called the Harvard dugout as Dartmouth reliever Ted Friel survived a one-run outburst in the ninth inning yesterday to save a 5-4 victory over the Crimson. But it was Harvard's pitching that told the story.

In the third inning, Crimson starter John Scott the ball right past his catcher to let a Dartmouth run come in from third.

Two innings later, Scott repeated the performance for another run. And between Scott and Jim McCandlish, who followed him on the mound, Harvard granted enough walks during the inning for still another Dartmouth score. Dartmouth stayed in the lead to give starter Jim Shaw the win.

It looked in the beginning like Scott's day. After allowing Dartmouth their first score in the second inning, the tall right-hander pardoned himself by tripling in two runs in the bottom of the inning.

But that was just the beginning. After two Dartmouth singles in the third, Scott's first wild 'pitch tied it up. Then, with two on and one out in the fourth, Harvard went for the double play--and blew it, allowing the third Dartmouth run to score.

The fifth inning produced Dartmouth's fourth and fifth runs, Scott's departure, and a little comedy. Dartmouth's Bill Bower led off with a triple, immediately followed by that second wild pitch. There was a walk, another single--and then an interesting encounter at first base.

Skip Falcone had caught a line drive and scooped the ball to shortstop Tom Bilodeau at second for a double play. But Bilodeau, trying to catch Dartmouth's Dick Horton off first base, threw the ball over first baseman Joe O'Cornell's head. As O'Connell turned to chase the ball and Horton started toward second base, a major collision occurred.

For 15 seconds Horton pushed and O'Connell shoved as both kicked up plenty of dust and neither got any closer to his goal. In the end, Horton slithered by just in time to make it to second base.

Scott issued one more walk and was replaced by McCandlish, who walked two more to force in a run. Only when Dartmouth's Frank Ota tried to steal home did the inning end.

Dartmouth had at that point a 5-3 lead that Harvard only at the rest of the afternoon. Tom Dockery, Dan Hootstein, and Bilodeau all singled in the bottom of the fifth to bring in one run, and Dockery, O'Donnell, and Hootstein produced another trio of singles for the Crimson's last run in, the ninth. Bilodeau popped up, however, to end the last inning rally.
