Navy Outplays
Favored Cadets
To Earn Draw
By Will Grimsley

Philadelphia, Nov. " -(AP)
Navy caught Army with its
platoons down today and spoiled
the Cadets perfect season with
a 2l-2l tie in an unbelievable
term of football fortunes.
1t was a sweet-tasting moral
victory for the Midshipmen ,
beaten 13 times in a row. Eight
this season and held in such
poor esteem today that the Ca
diets were solid three touchdown
favorites.
The amazing deadlock was IA
shioned with hard, teeth-rattling
football before sell-out crowd
of l02,5S1, including President
Truman. quite an upsetter in his
own right.
Significantly, the President
and his party, including M .
Truman and Margaret, sat on
the side of the underdog sailors
and watched as the Middies stab
bed for quick touchdown in
the opening period and rallied
twice to hold one of the nations
great gridiron powers to a stand
still.
1t was Navy's day as host to
have the President and it was
evident almost from the start
that this was Navy's day in the
long and colorful service game
series that now has seen Army
win 26 games, Navy 10 and four
wind up in ties.
The contest was less than six
minutes old when Pete Williams,
a phantom-hipped Midshipman
from Miami, Fla, took a lateral
from Reaves Baysinger a n d
dashed SO yards to the Army l3.
In three plays Baysinger was
across with a Navy score and
the packed stadium braced it :
self for the battle that 1t knew
was in the offing.
Precisionist Army bounc =
ed back with two touchdowns in
the second period, set up on j.
IDENTICAL pass plays from Arnold
Galiffa to Dave Parrish.
Navy tied the score at 14-14
with a Baysing ger-sparked march
in the third period only to see
Army 60 ahead again with a
touchdown in the first minute of
the final quarter.
The Cadets seven-point advan-
tage at this stage looked trem-
endous until midway of the per-
iod. Then the Midshipmen
launched land drive that would
Mt be denied.
In short, vicious hunks. Full
back Bill Hawkins and Halfback
Jimmy Green started pounding
out yardage through Arny's tir-
ing line.
The Midshipmen moved so
yards downfield, Hawkins scor-
ing the tieing touchdown from
the eight yard line with five min
utes to play. "a
Army took the next kickoff and
desperately smashed to Navy's
35-yard line. But there the Mid
dies stout line pushed back the
charge and the game ended with
the identical score of the 1926
game at Soldier Field in Chica-
go.
Navy had a surprisingly large
edge in statistics. The Middies
rolled up 10 first downs to II
for Army and racked up 287
yards on the ground, compared
with 205 for Army, the leading
rushing team in the nation.
