BETHLEHEM, Pa.—Maybe someone has finally figured out a way to stop Clifton Dawson: cue the Lehigh defense.But the way to slow down the rest of the No. 21 Harvard football team? That still went unanswered on Saturday, as the Crimson (3-0, 1-0 Ivy) squeaked by the Mountain Hawks (1-3, 0-0 Patriot) by a 35-33 score in front of 10,680 fans at Goodman Stadium in Bethlehem, Pa.Although Dawson was held relatively in check—he gained just 94 yards on 31 carries—he did move into...

After Toci’s speech, an as-yet unnamed player performed a skit suggesting that running back Clifton G. Dawson ’07 had performed oral sex on Murphy.
