Columbia Trims Novy, % to ID
On | 16-Point Rally in Last Half
By Lewis F. Atchison

NEW YORK, oct. 5.-A Navy
eleven that gave a commendable
performance Of Lion tanning in the
first half Of its game with Columbia
today, lost its whip In the second
and In the resulting scramble went
down to its first defeat of the sea-
son, 23-14.
The Lions, of to a roaring start
in Q .73-yard foray for touchdown
after taking the opening kickon,
had been gentle, almost docile, un-
der Nays expert handling the rest
of the first two periods. But CO.
|lumbia, envisioning Its first win over
Navy since 1899, went on scoring
rampage. Navy, which had led 14-7
at iaalftime, WAS powerlesS to curb III

punch over the tying touchdown In
the third period, and add another
six-pointer and q game-clinc ching
field goal in the final quarter. It
was a doubly sweet morsal for Little
because 1t was Nays coach, Capt.
Tom Hamilton, who kicked a field
goal to beat Little's 1926 George
town eleven, 10-7, at Annapolis.
Navy's Efforts Futile.
Navy struggled flIriously but
futilely to bring itself to even keel,
but the situation was completely
out of hand In the final period.
Lou Kusserow and Ventan YAH
lonsh did all of Columbia's scor-
ing, and Gene Rossides, the Lions
highly-touted star. played an i'm
portant role in the victory. But
one of the most important cogs in
the backf1eld was Jack Nork, q
stocky youngster from Shenan-
doah, Pa. Listed In the program
as a 178-pounder, Nork generated
the power that kept Columbia mov-
ing toward its second score when
Navy's line shackled his better
known mates. He was q S to Is
yard threat every time he got his
paws on the pigskin.
Statistics give Columbia the edge,
but Navy actually might have won
the game and had something to
spare but for q couple Of bad
breaks. They forced Hamilton's
crew to take the risks while Co
lumbia laid back to wait for the
breaks, breaks that came and were
converted into victory.
The first occurred early In the
third period when Navy set sail
from its own SO to Columbia's 10
yard line. Bill Hawkins then
plowed through to the 1-yard line.
Six points for. Navy seemed in
eyitable. But instead, the Tars
drew an offside penalty and when
the Lions refused to yield, Newby
Smith tried a 21-yard field goal
that was wide.
Turning Point Of Game.
The real turning point Of the
game, however, occurred near the
end of the same period when Navy

ing halt on its 2-inch line on fourth

on the next play and Yablonsh's
kick tied the score at 14-all.
A few minutes later another break

was under the complete direction
of Neil Scott and was financed

Because of the inclement wea-

granted by the City of New York

August 18th, the Isaac Woodland

The delay because Of inclement
weather necessitated additional
expense for promotion, advertising
and other particulars necessary to
make the show a success on Sun
