Well, all the Ivy League schools agreed to add a tenth game to their schedules, and "there aren't too many choices." Harvard coach Joe Restic says. Army, Navy, Air Force, maybe Tulane or Vanderbilt, but not many others. Except William and Mary, for one, and today and next year in Williamsburg, Va., the Crimson will face the Indians...
...when Buckley returned this fall, his original class having already graduated, the quarterback job was no longer his for the asking. So he dueled junior Mike Buchanan and sophomore Ron Cuccia for the job this summer and got Joe Restic's nod for the Columbia game...
Buchanan played gallantly in the next week's 20-12 victory over Cornell, but when he too got hurt, Restic ran out of top quarterbacks. Dartmouth blasted Harvard 30-12, and Princeton snuck by, 7-3. "I keep thinking about that loss to Princeton," Buckley says. Small wonder, Until the final minutes, Harvard had 19 yds. passing against the Tigers...
Buckley wasn't at his best, he concedes, but the the difference in the Crimson squad was obvious. As Restic says, "He makes our stuff go." He gave up a costly interception and fumble, but Buckley did the job, and because of his two screen pass touchdowns, Harvard hung on, 17-16. Was it too late? For Harvard to have any chance of winning the Ivy League, Yale must lose to Cornell or Princeton...

He moved cautiously behind the line and didn't try to go long, evidence that the three weeks off with a knee injury had taken its toll.

Surprisingly, fullback Jim Callinan, outstanding in his 100-yd. rushing performance last week, carried the ball only three times for a total...
