It was the seventh consecutive Salesianum triumph over the Highlets.

The first score came early after one of Stan Gardecki's punts was downed on the Highlet two-yard line. Fred Mitchell dropped behind his cwn goal line to kick, but the pass from center was high and the ball rolled beyond the end zone for an automatic safety even though Mitchell covered the ball and half dozen Sallies covered him.
