Harvard 28, Dartmouth 0

HANOVER -- Figuratively and literally, Dartmouth's game against Harvard Saturday afternoon was over almost before it began.

The Literal Ending: Played before an announced crowd of 2,028 in heavy winds and an occasional driving rain, the contest was over in a brisk 2 hours, 17 minutes.

The Figurative Ending: Clifton Dawson's 74-yard touchdown run on the first play from scrimmage, a lost fumble that sabotaged a promising opening drive by the Big Green, and Dawson's second touchdown on the first play of the second quarter all but condemned Dartmouth to a 28-0 loss to the nationally ranked Crimson.
