Associated Press Sports Editor


POLO GROUNDS. y. Y, November
26.-Kalying from poor start,
Army conquered the Navy today, IA
to 8, under the indomitable leader
ship of the blond and battling cadet
captain. Light Horse" Harry Wilson.
While a colorful, wildly yelling
crowd of 5000 looked on, Wilson
tween halves. came out to lead a
charge that saw him twice cross the
Navy goal line and then stand fore
most in the defense that checked the
desperate and dangerous closing squirt
of the Sailors.
AfmyS victory over gallant Navy
team that played superior foot ball
in all but the third period was a per.
sonal triumph for the veteran Wilson,
playing his last year for the Army
and his seventh against the Navy in
a varsity career that began in 1921
at Penn State.
Navy Stopped Twice Near Goal.
1t was Wilson who plunged in and
tackled with his forwards as they
put up stonewall defensive barrier
in the first half, beaten back and
once yielding a safety on a blocked
kick. but also twice stopping the
Navy at the threshold of the goal
line.
Once the Middies were turned hack
with only ; yards to go. but even
more diSheartening, in the second
period. was the Navy thrust that was
stopped by the Cadets only foot
short Of touchdown.
1t was Wilson who came trotting
out in the second half to lead
thrust that turned the tide and
clinched the game. Light Horse
Harry" was a whr,ing dervish as he
took Navy punt on the latter's 46
yard line and dashed IS yards. then
carried the ball scross the Middies
goal in five successive dashes. Side.
stepping and straight-arming, Wilson
frequently dragged three or four
tacklers along with him as he reeled
off 2S yards to the goal line.

nited. Red" eagle. fieet.running mate

tunity--in the form of an intercept
ed pass-and raced 36 yards to the
Navy's four-yard mark. 1t took only
two bucks by Wilson to put the ball
over and eagles toe added the extra
point for the second time.
Outplayed i'm First Half.
1t was just as we'll for the Army
that they produced this third period
scoring punch, for they had been out
played decisively by the Midshipmen
iE the first half and in the final quar-.
ter they were menaced by a Navy
comeback that netted one touchdown
and threatened another before the
la st whistle blew.
This Navy touchdown. throwing the
brigade of midshipmen into historical |
excitement as the end of the game
neared, was accomplished by spec.
tacular forward pass. Hurled by
Whitley" Lloyd from near midfield. il
was grabbed by Ted" Sloane, former
Drake end, as he slid across the goal
line to complete the most thrilling play
Of the game. The Middies had the

time, but Lloyd's tremendous heave
