Coach Hal Lahar, a pleasant gentleman who guides the fortunes of the Colgate University football team, has faced a particularly difficult problem in his two years as head coach at Hamilton.
The trouble started a year ago when a Maroon try for an extra point went wide and the Crimson edged Colgate, 21 to 20, in the Stadium. If you were down in the Stadium a week ago you saw that things up in New York State haven't improved very much--once again the Red Raiders lost by the fraction of a toe. By this time Lahar had become very unhappy, and because there is the possibility that Colgate may someday play Harvard again, he practiced extra points last Saturday. That Dartmouth happened to be the Colgate opponent didn't help matters much. Lahar used four different men, and got the same result four times--a downward cross of the official's arms. But Colgate won anyway, 24 to 14.
Speaking of Maroon, Colgate has been doing some social climbing this year. The schedule includes five Ivy League teams--Harvard, Yale, Cornell, Dartmouth, and Brown.
Dartmouth is pointing for Harvard as the big game this year. The Indians, bothered by key injuries and an incredible schedule--Holy Cross, Army, Navy and Cornell as well as the Big Three--feel that this is the game to win.
Rumor from Hanover has it that Jim Miller, top Green quarterback, is being saved for Saturday's game. Ticket sales have amazed everyone--but if you have a friend at the H.A.A. and a few dollars, you still may be able to get into the Stadium.
