thirty yards at the close of the Hrst
quarter and sent the Navy on its way.
Soon after the start Of the second period
another great pass---to Conroy-made
twenty yards and put the Navy only
twelve yards from the West Pointers
goal line.
1t took only one play to put the score
over. Mckee caught the ball on the
direct pass used by the Navy all through
the game and with splendid Interference
ckirted the left flank for a touchdown.
Barchet plac kicked the seventh point
into the record and the Navy was lead
Ing. The Army was yet TO be heard
from.
The cadets then kicked or, but the
Navy could do nothing, and had TO re-
turn the ball. Sinythe took 1t and ran
thirty yards on one of those twisting.
zig-zag journeys of his. That brought
the ball 10 the Nays 81 yard mark.
Wood lost three yards and made them
back But this was getting nowhere.
This was a jump shift and n flve yard
gain. But this was nullihed by a Ave
yard penalty for offslde. There was
another jump SHIFT and no gain. The
Navy was holding, even as the Army
held later. Garbisch was called back
from center to kick goal from place
ment from forty-fve yards, and now
the Navy's lead was only points. But
II would take touchdown TO discount
those four points. Another field goal
would not do.
And so they stood until the close of
the first half. AS the second period
waned the Army put on a great drive
and marched twenty-nine yards. 1t got
as far as the Navy yard mark, and
then time was called The half was
over. Why the Army did not try for an
other field goal when II knew that time
was SO short was mystery.
A poor punt by Cullen early n the
third quarter started the Army toward
its first touchdown and the lead. Cui-
len kicked poorly and Smythe ran Il
back expertly for twenty yards-so that
the Navy found the Cadets on the
Nays 80 yard mark. Smythe failed
in punch at the line, but pass from
Wood TO Smythe TO White gained thirty
yards and came near meaning n touch
down. Three Navy men sat on Whites
neck Just as ne was about to cross the
sacred goal line.
Wood tried left tackle. but met with
stiff opposition there and could claim
only yard.
There were three more punches avail

the Navy was watching Wood Law
renee crashed through center and Just
over the line. Garbisch placekicked
the extra point into the score. Now It
was Army 10; Navy. Z.
Army Holds.
II was not long after this score that
the Army Showed its defensive power
and held the Navy for downs on the
West Pointers twenty-five yard line.
Wood kicked Immediately. The Navv
made some progress. but again IL was
stopped and kicked. Several Army men
fumbled the ball and let II roll along
TO be recovered by the Navy on tho
Army's twenty two yard mark That
was the big break of the game and It
came near being the fatal break for
the Cadets. The Navy marched stead
lily. but when IL got to that one yard
mark. the Army held il again.
They crossed the third period with
the Army leading by 10 to Z.
But the fourth session was not very
old before the Navy got Its second
touchdown. and again took away the
lead The Macy was on the Arny's
forty-three yard post when the final
quarter started. A forward pass to
Parr netted twenty-one yards. and the
Army was In danger. Conroy failed to
gain, but another forward pass to Gull

Norris got seven yards off right

got four around left end for a first
down on the Arnys one yard mark.
