After Getting Tally
In Second Period
BY LEWIS F. ATCHIsON,

BALTIMORE, Nov. II. - Navy
wound up preparations for the Army
game today by slugging Wisconsin,
SO to Z, for its second victory in two
weeks over Big Ten rival.
With Miami Bruce Smith at the
helm, the Midshipmen tramped II
and 80 yards for two touchdowns in
the first period, eased up in the
next two, then turned on the power
again for 16-point fourth quarter
that clinched matters.
Jim Pettit's 70-yard touchdown
run in the final period, and Bill Bar
ron's 54-yard romp for a six-pointer
in the second were scoring features.
In between, the Midshipmen dis
played steady, crunching attack
that gradually wore down the Badg-
ers resistance. ~
Lop-sided as the score was, Wis
consin made it interesting for the
81, ,616 fans, mainly through the ef-
forts of 158-pound Jerry Thompson.
His l8-yard pass to George Fuchs
in the end zone eliminated Wiscon-
SINS 53-yard touchdown drive in the
second period.
Bartos Scores Early for Tars.
In between, the kid with the
Singer Midget physique gave the
Midshipmen bad case of jitters.
He dived into the line and disap-
peared, suddenly surfacing deep in
Navy's territory for sizeable gains.
But Thompson couldn't carry the
whole load and the Badgers didn't
have the power, passing or kicking
to balance his work.
Big Joe Bartos scored Nays first
two touchdowns. A 2-yard plunge
climaxed the Sailors 71-yard marcn
which was featured by the dual
efforts Of Bartos and Clyde Scott.
The latter's 24-yard return of Rex
Johns punt, putting the ball on
Wisconsin's 80, set up the second
score. Bartos went over standing
up from the 8.
Bob Jenkins recoverd Don Kindt's
tumble on Navy's Al to pave the way
fT Barrons scintillating touch
down run. The same Kindt's 81
yard run to Navy's "a was re-
sponsible for Wisconsins only in
trusion in Sailor territory in the
first period.
| Thompson SparKed the attack
that carried Wisconsin to Nays 20
yard stripe early in the third period,
piling up 38 yards. But the little
fellow fumbled at that point and
John Coppedge recovered for Navy.
t Navy Rolls Up Count. .. =
| Again Wisconsin barged into Navy
territory, but this attack, led by
Ben Bendrick and Kindt, was
broken up when Scott intercepted
Thompson's pass on the Is.
| Wisconsin stood on one Navy
thrust early in the final period. but
was scored upon twice in rapid Or
der Immediately thereafter. Jim
Darlington broke through and
blocked Johns punt on the II and
the ball rolled out of the end zone
for an automatic safety.
On the subsequent kickoff, Pete
Williams raced 54 yards to Wiscon-
sins Is. A forward-lateral, Welsh
to Carnahan to Barron, was good
for is yards and Navy's fourth
touchdown finally came from a pass,
Welsh to Williams.
The scoring ended with Petit 8
spectacular 70-yard run. He broke
to the right, rounded the end, and
when crowded to the sideline he
knitted his way across the field and
romped in.
Bill Koch and Bob Hanley at end
and Clarence Esser, 174-pound
tackle, were outstanding in the
Badger line, while Capt. Dick Duden
stole the show from the Navy for
wards. Duden was particularly
effective in diagnosing and breaking
up Wisconsin's screen passes.
