Starting raggedly and losing the ball to the Jayvees on a fumble in midfield, the Varsity was put on the defensive in the early part of the afternoon. But right then the whole team tightened up, and from that time on it was rough going for the Jayvees. For the Varsity held Jimmy Knex's boys for downs and got the ball again on their own 40. They drove through to a first down on the 50, Don Jackson turned in a sweet little sprint to the Jayvees' 18, and Tommy Bilodeau added three more spaces. Chet Litman did what...
...which the Varsity scored twice over the Jayvees. Both tallies came on passes, the first from Chet Litman to Bob Haley and the second from George Ford to George Hedblom. The Varsity started well, after receiving the ball on their own 30 yard line, but hit a snag in midfield when several plays turned into fumbles and missed assignments. So the Jayvees took charge of the pigskin and staged their best march of the year to the 5 yard line...
...Yankee Stadium Army made two touchdowns, thanks to Quarterback '"Beany" Johnson and Halfback "Texas Jack" Buckler. The outcome seemed so certain that nobody worried much when both Buckler's kicks for extra point failed. The break came in the final period after a march from midfield. Notre Dame's smiling Halfback Nick Lukats ripped through and around Army's line, did not stop until he had rammed over Army's goal. Quarterback Bonar kicked the extra point. A few minutes later Lukats sent a prodigious kick 70 yd. to Army's 8-yd. line...
...Thereafter Princeton settled down to the business of driving through four touchdowns. The first went to a hard-hitting tackle named Charles Ceppi who blocked a Yale kick on the 35-yd. line, scooped up the ball and raced across the line. The second started with a march from midfield by crack Halfback '"Garry" Le Van and Fullback "Pepper" Constable, and ended with a lateral pass to Halfback Spoffard from the 6-yd. line. Five plays carried the ball 54 yd. for Le Van to score the third. A whippet-tank march from the 35-yd. line made...
...hardly started when "Beany" Johnson, Army quarterback, caught a punt on his 18-yd. line and, with perfect interference, dashed along an 82-yd. highway to Navy's goal. The try for point failed. Before the period was over, Navy Halfbacks "Red" Baumberger and "Buzz" Berries started at midfield, had the ball over the line in three swift plays. Then, in his single play of the game, Dick Bull ran in and kicked the extra point...
