Closest call for Army came in the dying moments of the first half when Illinois missed a field goal attempt from the 15 after slamming to within seven yards of pay dirt.

The backfield for the Cadets was composed of Gustafson, quarterback; Stuart and Shelley at the halfs, and Rowan at full. Gustafson called for line smashes and Rowan and Stuart alternated to slam out a first down on the 24.

At this point, however, an off-side against the Army stalled the Cadet attack and the drive finally ended on the 20 when Cunz, Illinois lineman, barged through and knocked down Gustafson a fourth-down aerial. After another exchange of punts, Army again got a break in the form of a short Illinois boot. But from the Illinois 34 the Cadets couldn't get farther than the 27. hey tried no aerials and the Illini line halted ground plays.
