81 in IA carries, including his
touchdown gallop, which was
actually forced on him.
Leading, 30, early in the
second period, Navy faced a
third-and-9 situation on the
Army 20. Staubach ia ded
to pass but couldn't find a re-
ceiver open. Thus, he began
weaving his way goalward, fl
nally cutting to his right and
going into the end zone stand
ing up.
Three Navy touchdowns were
against the Regulars and two
against the Chinese Bandits.
Cadets Tainted
Navy again tainted Army
with slogans. In honor of the
Chinese Bandits, the Middies
wore beat Army on their he'll
mets-written in Chinese. They
also wore the jolly Roger on
the front of their headgear,
which may have inspired them
to play like pirates.
They recovered three Army
fumbles and intercepted two
passes, turning the final inter
ception into Nays last touch
down.
Army tried something new in
football attire also, but white
football shoes couldn't make
the Cadets run any faster.
Neither could Dietzel's appar-
emily new theory of complete
rest before playing Navy.
Army hadn't worked out in
two days before the squad
trotted on to the brightly dyed
turf just before kickoff time.
The Cadets didn't go through
much more than a brief Timber
ing-up drill, a strategem that
might have backfired when
Grasfeder heaved the ball
through his legs out of the end
Zone for the safety.
President losses Coin
The game opened ominously
for Army. With President Ken
nedy Tipping the coin. Navy
Captain Steve Hoy guessed
correctly and won the toss,
electing to receive.
Navy couldn't move and Full
back Pat Donnelly quick kicked
from the 10 on third down.
After two plays Melted the
Cadets minus yardage. they de-
cided to punt on third down
from their Is and Navy had its
first score on the safety.
Navy worked past midfield
after taking the free kick, but
the drive stalled. Army crossed
into Navy territory, Couldn't
get any deeper than the 81 and
Dick Heydt, who made four of
five field-goal attempts this
season, missed from the 81.
Taking the ball on the 20,
Navy then moved 80 yards in
nine plays, with Staubach hit
ting Henderson on the goal
line. 1t was only the second
pass Henderson caught this
season and no doubt the most
satisfying. Going for the two
point conversion, Staubach
missed his receiver after a
Navy penalty had nullified the
two points, and Navy now was
ahead. 80.
Navy Goes SO Yards
! Army again couldn't move
the ball and Peterson kicked to
the Navy 81. The Middies then
moved SO yards in nine plays,
climaxed by Staubach's litter
bugging dash through the Reg
ulars for the touchdown early
in the second period. Won
Sydow's kick was good, and the
Middies lead was increased to
$50.
Army got on the scoreboald
late in the half on a 54-yard
drive that took only three plays.
After Joe Ince, Nays punter,
kicked to the Army as, Lewis
hit Fullback Bob Wright on the
80. Wright dashed TO the Navy
2 as Donnelly caught him
from behind. Wright drove TO
the and then PARCELS took
II over.
Lewis tried to hit PARCELS
with a pass for the conversion
but Donnelly broke 1t up and
Navy led. 1915, at the half.
Markoff Takes OFF
After an exchange of fumbles
early in the third quarter, Army
gave up the ball on downs on
the Navy 38. On third and 10,
Staubach spotted Markoff as
unprotected as If he were on a
sleeper play.
Markoff grabbed 1t. numbered
down the field. looked as If he
could be caught by Johnny
johnson, a corner back, out
Henderson cut johnson down
at about the 10 and Markoff
