...next play, aided by the perfect interference of Lockwood and Clark, made the second touchdown. That Coach Fisher was dissatisfied with the way that his team has been using the forward pass this season was shown by the fact that he kept his men continually trying this method of attack which resulted in the third tally. In the last few minutes of play, Wharton made a wonderful catch of a pass from Hamilton and scampered 10 yards across the goal line...
Perhaps this knowledge is what made Coach Roper decide to spend the entire week in trying to bolster up his line and to take such infinite pains with his forward pass formations. At any rate, it seems that the Tiger eleven is pretty successful with this kind of attack. In the second quarter of the Navy game Lourie shot a forward pass of 38 yards to Davis; later he sent another beautifully accurate pass to Raymond for a gain of 15 yards, and several other times during the struggle he sent short heaves which invariably brought the necessary gains...
