An expedition from the Ameri.

Is to learn whether any prehistoric

aborigines, or whether mere re.

effort failed.
Navy clearly was the stronger team
in the second half, but like Harvard
lacked punch when within scoring
range. Six times the Middies were
hurt by penalties, chiefly for the back
field being in motion.
Early in the final period Navy ripped
its way to first down on Harvard's

ward wrested the ball away on the rs.
Cooke, battered and weary, was re-

on its own 35. There was time for
only a couple more plays and the
Crimson, desperately striving to shake
one of its backs loose, sent Struck of

Army mule at the start and they
rode him high and wide at the fin

surprised at the simple ease Of the
victory ride. It was Yale's first VIC
tory over Army in eight years and
the old corral was alive and buzzing
with championship talk tonight.
A big second-period push, led by
the great Clint Frank, was the ride
that tanned the Army mule today. A
spectacular catch of a touchdown
pass and safety, gave Yale 9
points in that decisive period. They
added one more touchdown in the
fourth and had one scored against
them, but as far as the result was
concerned it was all over after that
one big ride for life.

score. 1t was such an amazing eaten
