Late Score by Tufts Booters Ties Crimson

A Tufts goal in the last 70 seconds of play deprived the Crimson soccer team of its first victory yesterday on the Business School field, as the Jumbos tied Bruce Munro's booters, 2 to 2. It was the first tie for Harvard gainst one defeat.

With his team leading, 2 to 1, in the final minutes of play, Bruce Munro substituted freely in order to test some new players under fire, and the victory seemed to be assured. But Jose Reis, Jumbo center forward, nudged a rebound off the hands of a fullback into the nets, after a melee in front of the Crimson goal.

Although Tufts scored first, at 8:15 of the opening period, right inside Johnny Beer put the Crimson back into the game when he sent a long low shot into the left hand corner of the cage from about 15 yards out, as the culmination of a good play involving Win Knowlton and Marv Weiss.

Beer, now at left inside, put Harvard ahead in the middle of the last period when he and center forward Maurice Toro combined to convert a loose ball which dribbled out of a scramble in front of the Jumbo cage into the Crimson's second goal.

Harvard looked considerably better this game, and although in the first period Tufts was beating the Crimson players to the ball, the last three periods showed that the Crimson potentialities are beginning to develop.

Yardlings Beat Milton, 1 to 0

It took over 20 shots to their opponents' four to sink one, but thanks to Dick Fisher the freshman soccer team is still undefeated. Milton Academy succumbed, 1 to 0, to the Yardling's uncontrolled barrage on the Business School field yesterday.

The Crimson got off to a fast start and held the upper hand throughout the game. But it wasn't until 14:36 of the second period that Milton goalie Jim Perkins dove on the ball during a scuffle, and missed it. Fisher then kicked the ball into the nets for the lone tally.

The Yardlings failed to score again; as Coach Poley Guyda ruefully said afterwards, "We're certainly not deadly in front of the goal." However, his men played aggressively and he found a promising outside right in former inside Bill Lingelbach. Offsides cost the Crimson a goal in the opening period.

The Orange and Blue suffered from inexperience--Perkins has played soccer a scant two weeks--and seemed overly impressed playing college freshmen.
