Back's Anger Plagues Green; Nixon Buttons Outsell Kennedy's

By Michael S. Lottman

Bruce MacIntyre was fuming by the time he got into Saturday's game. Last Monday, the senior halfback failed to show up for practice, probably out of general discouragement. And then, after two years of playing behind Chet Boulris, he found himself on the bench again, as Hobie Armstrong drew the starting left half assignment.

So Maclntyre was not in a particularly jovial mood when he took over for Armstrong midway in the first quarter. On his first running play, he gained 15 yards, and soon after, with second and 22 on the Harvard 24, he tossed a 23-yard pass to Larry Repsher.

Everybody knows how Maclntyre lofted a perfect 20-yard pass to end Bert Messenbaugh in the third period to win the game. His fine punting--a 33-yarder that rolled dead on the Dartmouth three, and two 52-yard efforts--held the Indians at bay all afternoon. Perhaps all Maclntyre really needed was to get mad sooner; as Vic Johnson, Boston Herald cartoonist, observed, "The moral of the story is: Never rouse the ire of a MacIntyre."

After the game MacIntyre's teammates presented him with the game ball, and be made an incongruous figure as the walked around the locker room wrapped in a towel, with the football tucked under his arm.

Another player who looked happy in the post-game celebration was junior and Pete Hart, who finally broke into the lineup after being sidelined by as injured hand. Hart performed well in his few minutes of action, but may have a tough time replacing Messenbaugh among the starters now that the Okia-homan has begun to shine.

Halaby's Triumphant

Sam Halaby '60, brother of Ted, the current No. 1 varsity quarterback, was jubilant after the contest. His brother played a solid, heads-up game, with the result that the Crimson did not fumble once during the entire game.

Roy Williams' number 11 was missing from the bench Saturday. It was confirmed yesterday that the fine runner and passer from Oklahoma has quit the team.

Outside the Stadium Saturday, a vendor was running a "Galloping Poll." Before the game, his count showed Sen. Kennedy slightly ahead with about 150 buttons and badges sold, but by the end of the afternoon, Nixon had taken a slim edge with a total nearing 260.

In all the excitement, Charlie Ravenel was almost forgotten. He limped into the crowded Dillon Field House long after the game had ended and most of the players bad departed. Nobody seemed to notice him.
