Fischer Araray ESiips Davos Scores 1L TE)s By Gene Ward Philadelphia, Nov. 16. For one amazing period Penn pushed Army around here before 78,000 in Franklin Field. And then the Cadets from West Point, led by their great galloper, Glenn Davis, turned on the Quakers, and precipitated a five-touchdown rout which wasn't stemmed until the shadows lengthened deep in the fourth period and the Army line-up was filled with subs. Davis scored twice and had his capable mitts and nimble feet in on two other touchdowns as Army rolled on to triumph by a 34-7 count.

FIRST PERIOD Notre Dame scored in first 5 minutes on an advance of 62 yards, featured by a 31-yard run by Red Sitko. Sitko added eight and 14 yards to put the ball on the six-inch line, from where he bulled over. Early kicked the extra point. Murakowski sparked a 23-yard Wildcat advance after the next kickolf, but the Irish line held and Carle punted out onhe Irish 23. Sitko unreeled a 30-yard run, but two consecutive 15-yard penalties for clipping forced the Irish to kick.

Ashenbrenner, behind fine mass returned Lujacks kick 46 yards to the ND 19, but Lujack intercepted Keef's pass on the goal line and returned to ND's 18. With Gompers carrying, Notre Dame advanced to its 35, where Everest intercepted Lujack's pass. Score: Notre Dame 7, Northwestern 0. SECOND PERIOD The ND second team went in, with the exception of Lujack, and topped the Wildcats, forcing Eschenbrenner to punt into the end zone. The Irish put on a 25-yard advance in a light rain on Consistent line bucks to the right, but the march was checked when Lujack punted to the Wildcat 27.

Northwestern could not gain and, after taking the next punt, Living-ton led a 30-yard advance to the Wildcat 35, where Northwestern took over when fourth down failed to make the required distance. Northwestern took fire and ate up 40 yards on a pass, Keefe to Wilt-Ifen, good for 15 on a tine 21-yard run by Keefe who was stopped by Lujack. Brennanrescued ND with an interception on the 10 and the Irish moved to midfield on two runs by Swistowicz. Score: Notre Dame 7, Northwestern 0. THIRD PERIOD Orlick kicked oft into Ihe ND end zone and Sitko returned 23 yards and was almost loose, but a clipping penalty set the Irish back to their half-yard line.

Notre Dame then put on a remarkable demonstration of rugged power. In 20 plays they advanced 90 yards to the ftorthwestern 10. Twice the Irish gambled on fourth down and made their distance.

The kick was low and was caught by Schwall on the Northwestern 2 who ran behind a free lance of blockers to his 33. Inspired, the Wildcats made two quick first downs on running plays and a short pass, but an offside stalled them and Aschenbrenner, angling for the sideline, punted only 30 yards out of bounds, giving the Irish first down on their 28.

A 15-yard run by Mello put ND on Northwestern's 41 as the period ended. Score: Notre Dame 7, Northwestern 0. FOURTH PERIOD Again using a rugged attack, the Irish went all the way to score. Panelli led the march to the 15 and Gompers broke through to the 2 from which point Panelli scored. Signaigo's kickofF rolled dead on the Northwestern 28.

The ND line threw the Wildcats for a 12-yard loss in three plays and Aschenbren-ner's punt was returned five yards, but a clipping penalty set the Irish back to their 32. Rotterman piloted a substitute backfield of Gompers, Panelli and McGee to another touchdown. A 15-yard penalty for roughness kept the march alive after which McGee traveled to the oneyard line, from where Panelli dove over. Early place-kicked this point. It was Early's 23d completion in 27 attempts this year.

Notre Dame got another chance when Graham fumbled and McGee recovered on Northwestern's 38. This time a third-string backfield went all the way in six plays as Slovak ran the final 18 yards. Early converted again. Final: Notre Dame 27, Northwestern 0. Bonacorsa, Violet halfback, did get off for a 54-yard gallop to the Ram 26 but the Maroon line held.

Score: Fordham 7, NYU 0. SECOND PERIOD The Violets were on their own 20 as this period began and things didn't look rosy, not to say Violety. But on the first play from scrimmage halfback Bonacorsa ran around Fordham's left end, burst through the sad tackling of Ram secondaries and went all the way for the TD. Capozzoli missed the conversion. A couple of minutes later another long NYU dash by Millman from his own 86 was good for 64 yards and another score.

This time he (Continued on next page, col. i) Strictly back on the victory road after being sidetracked by Notre Dame, the Army tallied on two pitch-out pass plays, Arnold Davis handed off the ball to Harold Tavzel, a guard; a patented Doc Blanchard buck and finally a 61-yard pass play to Tom Hayes, sub end. Penn won the toss, received and proceeded to knock the stuffings out of Army for almost the full- first period. The first two running plays as uncorked by the (Quakers, Schneider and Minisi lugging, produced first downs. On the second exchange of punts a sub named Krichling arched a 72- yard boot which went over Tucker's head and out of bounds on the Army 2.

The Penn stands went mad as Army went into action with its back to the goal line. But on third down Davis got off a 51-yard punt to stall off trouble temporarily. DOC MISSES TOUCHDOWN So far it had been all Penn with the exception of a pass marked TD which Blanchard just missed with an open field in front of him. And still Penn went to town. Falcone came in for Lawless at quarterback and the Quakers started quaking the Army with a T-formation.

With the ball on its own 47, Schneider reversed his field and picked up a first down on the Army 40. A Falcone-to-Littleton pass was good to the 27 and a lateral to Minisi put it on the 20. Falcone fumbled, Gerometta recovering. Then Rowan fumbled for Army, Minisi recovering, and it was ball again on the Army 30. With Minisi, -Allen and Deuber running- inside and out, Penn moved up to the 6 as the period ended.

But Allen, who had been stopped inside, tried another spinner. No gain. A Deuber flip to Minisi in the end zone bounced off the lat-ter's fingers. Evans came in for a field goal and blew an angle shot from the 12. CADETS START MARCH From the 20 Army, suddenly catching on fire, went 80 yards with an assortment of runs and passes.

The first play, setting the march in motion, was a fancy reverse, Blanchard to Davis, Glenn galloping for a first down, 31 yards, to the Penn 49. That was Army's initial first down. A Tucker-Gustafason pass gave Army a first down on the 38 and. Army Penn rr.Krlrcnc Apmv Davis. 2-vd.

The next was a TD pass, Davis to Blanchard, who' made a nice catch on the goal line, but the play was nullified by a back-in-motion penalty. However, with the ball on the 29, four Tucker passes in a row, to Foldberg, Hayes, Davis and Davis again, made it first down on the 14.

Blanchard plunged to he 10 and then Tucker, on a pitch-out pass maneuver, tossed to Davis for the TD. PASS GAINS 39 YDS Penn went nowhere and had to punt, Army starting from its own 33. Again the Cadets put together a touchdown parade. Tucker passed to Davis for 22 and then Davis, on a handoff, faded and hurled to Blanchard all alone on the Penn right side. This was good for 39 to the Penn 12.

Blanchard bucked for 4. Tucker passed to Davis for 2. Blanchard nicked up another two yards to the 4 and on fourth down Tucker, faking a handoff to uiancn-ard who drove into the lin, straight ened un and tareeted Davis. Glenn was all alone, aeain on Penn's open right flank, and it was another TD, Davis just loping over. This time Ray's conversion was cood and it was 13-0 a half time, although Army scored again.

It was a Tucker-to-Rowan aerial good for 36 yards and a TD, but a back- in-motion penalty wiped it out again. Pos. ARM I L.E Poole Littleton L-T Tavzel L.G Steft'y Ellis Enos Bednarik R.G. Gerometta RT Bryant Gallatrhcr Foldbers Sppnausrle Q.B Tucker lawless L.H Davis. G.

He went 35 yards and, when hemmed in with Penn players on his shoulders at the Quaker 44, Gleen lateraled to Harold Travzel, a guard, who took the leather the rest of the way along the side lines. Over-all the operation covered 79 yards.

Again Penn was -forced to punt and again Army went the distance, 75 yards, Gustafson was for Tucker who had been shaken up and bruised in the first period. Quaterbacking for Davis, Blanchard and Rowan, Gustafson sent Davis wide for 14v He looped for 14 himself. After short puncnes by Blanchard, with Doc getting a first down on the 2b, Gustatson moved in a pass to Rowan for 7. Rowan toured wide for 13 up to the 2 where Minisi finally knocked him out of bounds. Two lunges by Blanchard and it was a TD, Ray adding his third conversion.

At 2:05 of the fourth quarter Army had another after a short punt by Krichling had carried only 28 yards, going out on the Quaker 38. Army slashed to the 20 but a holding penalty set em back to the 37. So. on the next operation, Davis faded and threw a perfect pass to Haves on the goal line. Deuber was the goat for Penn.

Ray made good with the conversion and it was 34-0. Armv had another TD called back its third mid-way through the final chukker. The Cadets had gotten the ball via Luongo's fumble, recovered by Poole. Gustafsoc toured end to paydirt on the second play but an offside cancelled the score and Penn intercepted 8 fourth-down Gustafson pass in tht end-zone. Penn put on a pass display witt Krichling throwing, but with tht ball on Army's 15, Galiffa, sut Army half back, intercepted in th end zone.

At this point Penn got a con solation tally as Rod Adams blocked punt with a sul end Frank Jenkins chasing th bounding ball into the end zon and plopping on it for a TD. Evan; added, the extra point. Violets Defeat Rams, 33-28, in 4th Period By Joe Trimble Fordham and NYU may be only "small time," but yesterday at the Yankee Stadium they put on a terrific football game that would have done credit to Army-Notre-Dame playing before a packed house. TheS.OOO spectators had one thrill after another with the v- final one a 45-yard" pass play in the next to the last minute deciding the game in favor of the Violets, 33-28. This was Fordham's sixth straight defeat.

FIRST PERIOD The Rams received and fullback Lou Mauro returned the boot to the 31. On the first play Andrejeo broke around his own left end, swivelled through Violet backerups and outran the secondary in a sprint of yara for a TD. Steve Skapinec 'cicki-d the point and Fordham led, 7-0, after only 43 seconds of play. Neither tea a showed any other sustained attacking ability during the next 14 ihinutes and so that was the only productive play. Joe.
