Scoring were Buddy Dike-with a plunge, Marvin LaSater with another plunge, Dick Finney on a quarterback sneaker for 49 yards, and Jim Shofner' on another short drive. But most of the touchdowns -were set up by long jaunts or passes. LaSater, a sophomore from San Angelo, Texas, drove the Alabama eleven wild with tre, mendous gains, and broke the back of the Southeastern Conference team with a 63-yard pass-run to the three that set up the second touchdown and put TCU out of the reach of the Crimson Tide.

Enroute, Frank Gifford, the Giants' great running back, and Eddie LeBaron, Washington's brilliant quarterback, were the names on the tongues of Tampans. At 5 o'clock this afternoon it was changed to such previously unknowns as Robert Williams, Monty Stickles, Bob Anderson and Pete Dawkins.

These boys did it for the Irish and for the Army as Notre Dame outscored the Cadets, 23-21. Now, the Tampans wonder? what is Anderson doing at West Point? How come he isn't at Florida, FSU, Miami or Tampa? It is a moot question. Robert, Irish rose up in true George Gipp fashion and tumbled the mighty Black Knights from the banks of the Hudson. But, you had to be here to really enjoy this meeting of these two behemoths of the football field. Enjoy it, the Touchdowners did.
