 Greatest Gathering
By MURRAY ROSE

NEW YORK, Dec. 3--The football season is finished except for the Bowl festivals and the East-WeSt North-South games, but the thou sands of fans who saw Army's record busting array in action probably will be talking about this peerless grid machine until another fall cam paign rolls around.
 In beating Navy 32-13 Saturday for their ninth straight victory this year and their 18th in a row over two seasons, Coach Earl Blaik's re- beating national champions became the first Cadet corps ever to go through two campaigns with perfect records and the first to win more than Is games in succession.
 It was Doc Blanchard and Glenn Davis again who led the Cadets to victory in their 46th climactic clash with Navy and those two All Americas will be back in Army's colorS next year Between them they scored all five of the Cadets tcuchdowns with the big pile-driving fullback racking up three and the flashy Davis hotfooting it for two The victory was Army's 24th ir the series that started in 1890
 Army scored three touchdowns ir the first period and one each in the third and fourth, while Navy picked up it's touchdowns in the second and fourth periods, the lat ter on a one-foot buck through the middle of Army's varsity line Il was the first time Army regulars had been scored upon by rushing this year
 A sell-out crowd of 102,000 specta- tors, including President Truman saw the service classic in Philadel- phia'S wind-swept municipal sta dium, but the top throng of the day was gathered in Los Angeles Me morial Coliseum where 103, ,000 fans watched Southern California's Tro. jans defeat UCLA, 25-15 and carr the right to meet Alabama in tho Rose Bowl.
 Alabama wound up it's campaign unbeaten and united, slaughterina Mississippi State 55-13 as Harry Gil mer put on another impressive aer- ial display by completing 13 of 1s passes for two tuchdowns.
