NEW YORK, Dec. New York
rules a 81 favorite over the Red
skins in the first of their two crucial
games tomorrow, but there was an
air of confidence in the wigwam as
the Tribe awaited the kickoff.
The Skins have beaten Steve
Ovens Giants only four times in
their last IA engagements, but one
of those was the playoff for the
Eastern title last year, and the
Giants haven't forgotten. There
may be another playoff this year,
unless one of the two wins both
games. thus eliminating the second
place Philadelphia Eagles from the
Triple Tie Is Possible.
A tie between New York and
Washington today, plus an Eagle
win over the cellar-dwelling Brook
lyn Tigers, would throw the race
into triple tie, and In no event can
it be decided definitely before next
Sunday when the Giants visit
Washington. Philadelphia must
win both of its remaining games
the second with Cleveland-to retain
its chances of getting into playoff
for Eastern honors.
Both the Giants and Skins have
been labeled lucky this season, an
appellation not wholly unjustified,
so any prediction concerning the
outcome of today's game, much less
the series, would be purely guess
work. The Giants strong suit is a
running attack and aging Ken
Strong's place-kiclSing ability, while
the Tribe is expected to pin its
hopes on the throwing arms of
Sammy Baugh and Frank Filchock.
New York's rather stout line prob
ably will be bolstered by the pres
ence of 1t. AL Blozis, all-league
tackle last season who is enjoying
a brief furlough before going over
seas. The Redskins boast new
conner, too, in Halfback Andy Nat
ovich, recently mustered out of the
Army, who will get into the game
briefly in order to qualify for the
championship playoff, If the Skins
make the grade.
Giants Declared at Peak.
The Giants are reported in excel
lent shape for the duel, with Bill
Paschal, leading ground gamer of
the circuit, fully recovered from the
leg injury which bothered him in
the last two games. Washington
has regained big Jim North, who
was out last week with an injured
knee, but may miss Les Dye, pass

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Dec. a.
Notre Danes Fighting Irish ex-
ploded with all the fury of their
football tradition today to crush
Greats Lakes, 28-7 and close their
season with setbacks only by Army
and Navy marring a 10-game cam
paign.
The finale of the Midwestern foot
ball season saw Great Lakes take
a TO lead on the first play of the
second quarter as Quarterback Jim
Youel sneaked across from the l
to cap a 26-yard Bluejacket march.
Jim Mello place-kicked the point.
That merely set a torcn to a fuse
bomb Notre Dame attack. Midway
in the second period, the Irish
zoomed Sc yards for their first
touchdown which came as Quarter
back Frank Dancewicz tossed a 15-
yard pass to Halfback Bob Kelly,
who made leaping catch on the
goal line. Halfback Steve Memeth
booted the first of his four CONVEX
sions and the score was tied at TT.
AS the second half opened, the
rugged Irish line was hitting so
hard Bluejackets were sprawled in
jured almost play after play. 1t
was these smashing tactics that
gave Notre Dame its second touch
down. Halfback Ed Saenz of Great
Lakes was smacked by Guard John
Mastrangelo on the goal line
fumbled, and the ball was recovered
by Irish End Doug Waybright for
score.
The final quarter produced two
Irish touchdowns, the first on a

He returned to action late in the

America tackle candidate, was
bulwark in the line but he
wasn't able alone to stop the
Cadets rushes as typified by
Blanchard and Davis end
sweeps. Once it seemed as if
Blanchard carried the entire
right side of the Navy line on his
back as he rammed for a first
down.
The game didn't come down to
the kicking of Dick Walterhouse
of the Army and Vic Finos of the
Navy but the Cadets kicking
specialist hung up a new COL
legiate record for points after
touchdowns. His three boots
gave him a total of Al for the
season, three more than Clyde

BALTIM E, Dec. 2.-The
story of Army's 23-7 victory over
Navy today is the story of the
deadly ballhawking that has been
the Cadets forte all season, bril-
liant performances by a pair of
plebes, Glenn Davis and Felix
Blanchard, and a line that was
hardly reckoned in class with
the Middies' great forward wall.
Five times the future generals
stepped in to stop Navy threats
with pass interceptions to run
their total for the season to IS.
Two of them led to Army touch
downs and both were made with
in five yards of the same spot.
Herschel Fuson. sub center,
grabbed one of Hal Hamberg's
aerials on the 25-yard line in the
second period. From there the
Cadets drove deep into Navy ter
ritory and, although they failed
to score, they put the Middies in
such a hole that they were unable
to stop the next Army drive.
Davis picked Bob jenkins pass
out of the air on Army's 80 in the
final quarter and from there the
Cadets marched 10 yards. for their
second tally. In between and
afterwards, Blanchard, Hank
Foldberg and Arnold Tucker in
tercepted three other aerials.
Davis and Blanchard were the
individual stars, although little
Hamberg put on a great display
in Navy's touchdown drive. The
two Army plebes gained all ex-
cept two yards of the 10 yards
covered by the Cadets in the drive
for their second touchdown.
Davis went so yards for the final
tally and both were instrumental
in setting the stage for Dale
Halls 24-yard scoring play in the
second period.
Except in the first period and
the third, when penalties and
Navy's forward wall pushed the
cadets back nearly 40 yards, the

The an-civilian Bulldog team

Cadets Alertness Pay OFF.
But it was the alertness Of the
West Pointers that really paid off
and they cashed in on all Of their

Davis ripped around end for IS
yards, then he and Blanchard al
ternated at carrying the pigskin
until they reached the Navy Is.
There the attack begged down and
Navy took over on downs. Little Hal
Hamberg, Navys mighty mite and
outstanding star of the day, quick
kicked out of danger, but the Army
horde came right back.
Halfback Dale Hall ripped through
for II yards in two tries and Blan-
chard bucked the line for 10. Navy's
outstanding tackle, Don Whitrnire,
was injured on Blanchard's smash
and retired and with him went most
of Navy's defense.
On the first play after Whitmire's
injury Davis swung around right
end for 81 yards, and on the next
Hall went over left tackle for "a
yards and the first touchdown.
Navy Goes 79 Yards to Score.
Walterhouse converted, putting
| Army ahead, 7 to 0, and writing his
own name in the record books as
history's most prolific extra point
scorer.
Early in the third period, with
Navy backed deep in its own terri
tory, Army Tackle Arch Arnold Of
Fort Lewis, Wash, broke through to
block a punt by Navy's John Han
sen, the ball rolling into the end
zone. Hansen recovered the ball
there, Arnold tackling him for a
safety and two Army points
I Angry Navy struck right back,
marching 79 yards to its only touch
down after taking a Blanchard punt.
IHamberg, who took over for Half
back Bob Jenkins, star back injured
in the early going, engineered the
Middies' drive.
He ran for Is yards on the first
two plays, then passed to Hansen
and Halfback Bill Barron for first
downs. An offside penalty interrupt
