The Crimson golfers continue to dominate Eastern Intercollegiate golf after defeating Brown yesterday, 7-0. The golf team puts a ten game winning streak on the line today when it tees up against Yale at the Country Club in Brookline.
Yesterday's victory was the fifth shutout for the Crimson this season. And Harvard had little difficulty winning it.
Yank Heisler, playing in the number one position, and Captain Bruce LoPucki at number two, had to play 19 holes before they won their matches, 1-up.
Number three man, Jack Purdy, won easily against Brown's Jim Pagos. Purdy walked off the course after 15th hole with a 4 and 3 victory. Steve Owen, in the number seven position, needed only 13 holes to defeat Bruin Dave Thayer, 6 and 5.
Angry Bulldogs
The Bulldogs have lost only once this season. That loss was handed to them by Priceton, who drubbed the Elis, 7-0. It was the first whitewash give a Yale team since 1948. The Bulldogs could be angry after that loss.
Yale defeated the Crimson golfers last year, 5-2, in a match that saw the Harvard team lose four sudden-death play offs. The '67 encounter wasn't much better. The golf team fell, 4-3. In that defeat, the number seven man for Harvard lost his match when he failed to drop a 2-foot putt on the twentieth hole.
A Pro
Yale's golf dynasty is run by coach Al Wilson, a nervous man who believes in winning--the professional way. In a typical Yale match, Wilson has three assistants with walkie-talkies spread around the course. They report back to him on the standings of all the golfers.
Tommy Wynne, who helped the Harvard football team beat Yale last year, said that the assistants usually unnerved the Crimson golfers. "I would miss a putt and that guy with his walkie-talkie would be whispering back the fact to Wilson," Wynne said.
Many of the golfers are eagerly looking forward to the Yale match this afternoon. "Everybody is really psyched up for this match. Besides, we despise Yalies," Wynne said.
