Thirty seconds later Lewis flew past Carr and Mueller and completed his hat trick with a bull skimmer into the lower right corner.

Everyone Off Form

Just as no one had stood out in Harvard's victories, all were equally off form in defeat. The only exceptions were Gurry and penalty killers Dwight Ware and Chip Otness, who even combined on a break-away try in the third period. Ware's performance prompted the biggest applause by the Harvard fans, many of whom would like to see the Crimson junior taking regular turns.

But Harvard's poor play was all to Cornell's credit. Pete Tufford, centering the all-junior line, as good a forward as there is in the East, and the five sophomore forwards from Ontario--all of whom scored last night--make Cornell's fast-breaking attack a constant threat.

But the big difference between Cornell and every team Harvard has played to date is defense. If Captain Skip Stanowski (the only senior on Cornell's squad!) is not the best collegiate defenseman in the country, it would be because his partner, junior Bruce Pattison, is. And sophomore Dwayne Ferguson is not that far behind.

Harvard goalie Bill Diercks, whose average but not reputation was marred, recorded 28 saves: 8-8-12
