Brooklyn. This gave Navy the ball
on the Cadets 81. but, after q Is
yard run by Busik had moved the
scrimmage line to the .. Army's line
dug in and took the ball on downs
q yard from the goal.
Cadet Quarterback Henry Makur
of Lowell, Mass, dropped back and
punted from behind his goal line.
Busik received on Army's IS. ran
up to the 20 and Navy pounded
away again. The Middies made a
first down on the IA. but Busik was
hurt and forced to leave the game
With him went Nays drive. Three
line thrusts and pass failed to
gain and Army took the ball.
In the second period, Army looked
almost as superior as Navy looked
In the opening quarter. Perhaps II
was due largely to the presence Of
the No. Q Navy team, although al
season this combination had rivaled
the first-stringers in effectiveness
and sometimes had surpassed them
Anyway, Army appeared stronger
than this No. 2 team.
The Cadets started to roll when
Mazur quick-kicked and Clark
touched the rolling ball. Joe Hen
nessee, a guard from Fort Hancock
N. j., claimed it for Army on the
Middies' 46, and with Mazur pass
ing, Ted Lutryzkowski of Muskegon
Mich, receiving and Johnny Hatch
of Fort Sill, Okla, running, the
Cadets banged down to the H.
yard line.
Army Boys Down.
Here they indulged in some du-
bious quarterbacking. Had 1t
worked, the field general would have
been hailed. With Army ripping
apart the Annapolis line, Sec
ond-down pass was tried and was
incomplete. Then Army went back
to hitting the line, even on fourth
down, and failed to get very FAR,
Navy taking over on the and
kicking out.
Late in the same period, start
ing from their own At, the Cadets
launched an aerial attack with
Hatch passing and Lutryzkowski re-
ceiving. Army got to the IA and
then Werner intercepted, but. as
he was tackled, the Navy back
fumbled and Jim Mckinney, q
tackle from Salem, Greg, recovered
for Army on the 6-yard line anc
West Point was given first down
To stop the clock, Army took
time out and 5-yard penalty fol
too many of these. Then, with 4s
seconds left, Hatch attempted foul
passes from the 11-yard line and
all fell incomplete.
Navy Crosses Again.
That completed Army's offensive
gestures for the day. From then
on the Cadets were back on theil
heels. In the opening minutes oi
the third period, after Navy hac
reached the enemy l9, little Leon
ard tried a field goal while stand
ing on the 81, but missed.
Then, when Army had punted
Clark took up where Busik left
of in the opening minutes. On Z
fake reverse, he broke away fol
rs yards and planted the ball or
Army's 2l. A 5-yard penalty anc
plunge by Malcolm moved il
to the 9 and first-down pass from
Clark to Malcolm was good fol
touchdown. Vitucci kicked thu
extra point and 1t was l4-0.
Navy played it safe, Army Lacked
the punch and the crowd was tor
impatient. That was the story o
the final period and so the forty-firs
Army-Navy game in so years wounc
/ up with the Midshipmen in pos
session of their sixteenth victory
Army has won % and 8 game
ended in ties.
White House Banned Game.
There were lapses over the half
century for various reasons. From
! 1894 through 1898 the game wa
under presidential ban because foot
ball was regarded too rough. Il

difference over eligibility.

New High in Parade.
While scores of special trains still
were emptying thousands of specta
tors from Washington, New Yorl
and other Eastern cities, the corp.
of cadets and the regiment of mid.
shipmen hit new high in a be.
fore-the-game demonstration. Fo,
