Twenty six of the Yale staff journeyed to Cambridge for the get-together this year. Luncheon at the Varsity Club started the festivities, with Ducky Pond, Yale grid coach, presenting Dick Harlow with highly prized Cassowary egg, similar in size to the football that Yale less willingly relinquished last November at Soldiers Field.
