Field Goals Decisive
Since 1910, following a one
years lapse in football relations,
Army and Navy have played 81
games. In II of these one team
or another has scored by means
of field goals. And farther back
in the series there have been
many goals scored, some of which
merely added to the point totals
without having a definite bear
ing on the outcome of the game.
Jack Dalton. the famous "Three
to Nothing" Jack of Navy, won
for the Navy in 1910 with field
goal, and repeated his feat in
1911. Then came Babe" Brown,
now he is Lieut.. John H. Brown,
graduate manager of athletics at
the Naval Academy. Babe spun
two field goals in 1912 and in
1913 was ever deadlier with his
toe, for he shot three goals from
the field and accounted for all
the points scored by Navy in
that game.
His great feat was in vain, how
ever, for Army won by score of
% to 9, and Woodruff, of West
Point, also got goal from the
field. In 1915 Gene Vidal found
the range of the posts in a 15-to-
7 Army triumph.
Clyde Kings two goals in 1919
started three-year supremacy of
Navy which was broken in 1922,
Eddie Garbisch, transfer from
Washington and Jefferson College
kicking the three points that gave
West Point 17-to-14 triumph. In
1924 at Baltimore, Garbisch did
it again. sending four goals from
the field across to account for all
the points in a 12-to-0 victory for
Army.
Clark Paved Way
Tommy Hamilton kicked a field
goal for Army in 1925. No goal
kicking was done until 1881 when
IT. N. T." Brown, of Army shot a
beauty over the posts. The games
in 1882 and '33 were not marked
for any field goals, but Cutter re-
stored the placement kick to its
former place of glory on Saturday.
1t was Gutter and his accurate
toe who Won the game for Navy,
but it was MidGhipman Bill Clark,
who for two years had punted
valiantly and supported the rush
line in staiWaTt fashion, whose toe
paved the way for the winning
score. And it was Clark, who,
with truly prodigious punt,
drove Army from scoring position
right back to the very shadow Of
its own goal POSTS. It was Clark
who backed up that line with
Robertshaw and kept Army's
ground gained by rushing down
to pitiful minimum.
Clark's first great punt came
just before the close of the open.
ing period. He shot for the corner
and the ball, flying as if from a
cannon's mouth, went out OF
bounds two feet from the goal
line. Dusty Dornin, Navy end,
was down on that ball, crossing
the line between the leather and
the goal line to be sure that the
punt would not roll for touch
back.
His next great effort was in
the fourth period, when after
Army had forced the fight. Navy
got the ball on it's own 24-yard
line. Clark then doomed the
leather down the line 80 yards
and the last chance of Army was
killed.
