Meanwhile, Crimson setbacks Steve Harrison and Tom Miller were going absolutely nowhere, but sophomore halfback Ted DeMars picked up 18 yards in the fourth quarter and produced by far the game's prettiest play.

On a second and 22 situation from the Harvard 15. DeMars took a swing pass from Crone and, feinting masterfully, raced 75 yards through the Dartmouth secondary for the Crimson's final score.

Indian halfback Vence Lewis will not soon forget that play. As Lewis tried desperately to catch DeMars at the Dartmouth 23, Crimson flanker Rich Gatto swung back from across field and leveled Lewis with a perfectly-timed block.

Foster played the first two series of the second half, but was again replaced by Crone when Dartmouth went ahead 21-0 following a 34-yard punt from the Harvard ten.

Short carried five consecutive times for 39 yards on that drive, but fullback Stuart Simms got the touchdown on a one-yard plunge.

Crone was unable to move the Crimson offense on his first series of the third quarter, and another short punt led to a 33-yard field goal by Pirmann on the second play of the fourth quarter.

Following the kickoff, Crone put Harvard on the scoreboard with a three-yard pass to Freeman that capped a 76-yard drive-the Crimson's only sustained thrust of the day.

Blackman mercilessly returned his first string to the game and Chasey directed a time-consuming 80-yard scorning drive that culminated in a six-yard pass to Short.

The game ended with Dartmouth on the Harvard 17, trying to maintain the momentum that carries them into next week's game against Yale undefeated, untied and unshaken by a hollow Harvard attempt to upset them.
