Those who believe the Ivy League is the province of genteel
souls imbued with good sportsmanship must have missed the
Harvard-Cornell hockey game this week.  Harvard won 3-2 in
sudden-death overtime as a prelude to a major brawl.  The
brawl started when two spectators threw a wine bottle and
a beer can at Cornell goalie Darren Eliot.  The game also was
interrupted earlier when when spectators-most of them Harvard
fans-bombarded the rink with 350 tennis balls and a live
chicken that had been painted pink.  Harvard coach Billy Cleary
noted the behavior is hardly one-sided.  In a game played at
Cornell, fans bombarded the Harvard players with more than
100 pounds of fish.
