While being held to the first deadlock In its 26-game -series with the Cadets, the Crimson opened in sluggish fashion and closed with a furious aerial surge that probably would have produced the winning touchdown if the clock 'had not rushed to the hard-pressed Army's rescue. Harvard faltered and frittered away all of its early opportunities against the almost equally uncertain Cadets but after yearling Henry Hazur, irom nearby Lowell, raced 40 yards to register the Army's points in the third period, the Crimson sprang to action.

Mazur was the only offensive threat the Army displayed during the entire game but even he was unable to get anywhtre until he started his touchdown dash after being apparently trapped while trying to pass from Harvard's 40.

Spreyer's accurate heaves to MacKinney and Joe Koufman, the other winger, had much to do with setting the stage for the Crimson's score for it wiped out about 40 vards before the Cadets checked it bv covering all receivers and holding for downs on their 16-yard line.

At that stage, Mazur was resting on the sidelines and Clyde Thompson was doing the Army's kicking. His hurried punt went outside on Army's 34 just as the third period ended. That break was the one the Har-vards were awaiting. By that Nme they were convinced that it was futile to continue battering the Army's stubborn line and they took to the air. Cadets Stop Rush.

Spreyer's passes clicked twice in a series that ended with the Cadets holding for downs on their 24. Then, despite the fact they had only a touchdown lead, they attempted to pass and Burgy Ayres, the Crimson's second-string center, intercepted and lateraled to Koufman, who got as far as the scrimmage line. Thereupon Spreyer resumed his pitching and his third consecutive completion, launched from the eight-yard line, set up MacKinney's tying touchdown. Less than a minute remained when he moved Harvard from its 35 to Army's one-yard line bv contacting Koufman and MacKlnnev with 45 and 18 yard heaves. The Crimson tried to beat the clock by drawing a penalty for an extra time out but alert Cadets batted down his final pass and retired with honors even.

19, (AP.1 Rhode Island State evened its 18-year football series with Massachusetts State today, spotting the home team a second period field goal and then coming back to score all Its points In the third period for a 9-3 victory. Each team now has eight victories and two ties in the long series. A fumble killed a drive by Massachusetts State In the second period, forcing Larkin to drop back and boot a 20-yard placement field goal that put the Statesmen temporarily in the lead. Rhode Island took over, however, in the next period after a see-saw punting duel as Abruzzi heaved a 20-yard pass to Narducci, who took it on the 15-yard line and carried it over standing up. In on him as he faded back to launch an aerial to Left End Louis Seith, about the onlv play Army attempted that met with any previous success.

Just as the fast-charging Crimsonites were about to swarm over him. the speedv Mazur side-stepped each in rapid turn, raced to the right and. after spotting an opening, reversed his field and sped through it. He had to zig-zag through the rest of the Harvard team but. despite the fact that every rival had an onen shot.

Again Yale came back, with Anderson pitching strikes to Captain Hal Whiteman and the sensational Alan Bartholemy, but again Dartmouth held fast and took the ball on the five yard line. The third time Pond's charges swept from past midfield. It was less than a minute to play when Anderson whipped a long pass to Bartholemy, who made a miraculous snare on the 23. Two plays later Anderson was hurt and Harrison was dropped back on the 27 by Harry Gerber, Green end, on his first of dom.

The Indians, furious at this turn of events, threw Yale back to the nine on four plays with a fourth-down pass bounding into the end zone and Dartmouth taking over on the 20. Dartmouth's savage defensive work continued and it ultimately paid off with a touchdown near the end of the third period. Yaie was penalized from midfield to its own 35 for clipping, Anderson was thrown back on the 33 and then Harry Detchon, a substitute who later did some effective ball-carrying, froze In the clutch by fumbling a snap back in kick formation, and. though he finally recovered. Bob Krumm pounced down on him on the 19.

Detchon had another chance and got this kick off but it carried only to the 45. Wolfe Scores For Green. The eleven from Hanover struck quickly. One play for four yards and Ed Kast passed far down the sidelines to Wolfe who outran Anderson and knifed into the end zone. Young place-kicked the seventh point.

Yale was deep in Dartmouth territory all through the final, thrill-packed quarter, but for a long time it looked as though the last-ditch defenses of the Hanoverians would hold off the repeated Blue surges. The first march, started in the third period, went 78 yards to the three yard line before Krumm smeared Detchon on a lateral play and Howie Kaye's attempted field goal from the 21 was blocked by three pass attempts. The second heave went again to Bartholemy, who made another great catch on the seven. One plunge and Harrison flipped to Reid for the touchdown that left the customers gasping. Little did it matter that Harrison's place-kick was blocked.
