8 Takeaways From Harvard’s Task Force Reports
Sweeping through all opposition, the University polo team defeated the Danvers Riding Club trio, 17 1-2 to 7 1-2, in an unusually interesting contest, at the Commonwealth Armory, last Saturday.
Two minutes after the starting whistle had blown, E. T. Gerry '31 drove in the initial goal. G. O. Clark '31 followed up with another tally immediately afterward, and a Harvard pony kicked in the third score of the contest a few minutes later from a scrimmage in front of the Danvers goal.
The second chukker was marked by hard riding and the third ended with the Crimson malletmen leading by 6 1-2 goals. With both teams mounted on fresh ponies the Harvard trio launched a fast attack, which was featured by three scores apiece by the Clark brothers.
In the last two chukkers G. O. Clark scored three goals, while Captain F. A. Clark '29 tallied two more.
The summary follows: Score--Harvard 17 1-2, Danvers 7 1-2, Goals--G. O. Clark S. F. A. Clark S. F. T. Gerry, pony (Harvard), pony (Danvers). Penalties--Harvard 3, Danvers 3. Handicap--Danvers 8 goals. Time Six 5-minute chukkers. Referee 1, Brigham. Time J. B. Howard.
