Princeton started off well in the battle of the unbeaten on a crisp, clear autumn day, holding onto a halftime lead. Harvard took the lead, however turnovers and mistakes on their part. and some great offense and defense on our part, lead to an exhilarating 31-28 late win. See Game Results for the rest of the great finale.

Among those spotted at the game were Don Roberts and date, and Hal Werner and his wife.

Jerome Coleman and clan and several of the pregame crowd joined the Class of 1971 at a post Harvard homecoming game party in the Library of The Tiger Inn on October 21st, 2006. Our thanks to Bill Lewis '71 for inviting us once again. We were serenaded by the fantastic a cappella group Shere Khan doing a medley of Simon and Garfunkel songs.


Later that day Heather (Queen Bee) and Paul Haaga hosted Classmates for cocktails at their condo at One Markham Place, Princeton. Markham is a right turn off Nassau Street, one block north of the intersection of Harrison and Nassau. Finally for all art lovers, Heather's show of Click to see paintings was on display at the Present Day Club, 72 Stockton Street in Princeton.
