CO Air Power IHlGiirvdiirdl, 54-14 my By Dick Young Boston, Oct. 15. Army's two football teams, magnificently trained as weapons of destruction, threatened to inflict the worst two-fold punishment in Harvard's history as they piled up a 41-0 total on the scoreboard at halftime this afternoon, and a pile of Crim 3 5SL Vj Crj S3 i 10 the Cadets, for Pollack to go over standing from the 7. It wasn't too long before Schultz fine 25-yard runback of a punt st up Army for another drive from Harvard's 40. Pollack and Stephenson alternated on the ground-gobbling to the 17.

There, Blaik pitched to Stephenson, on the right side, and Gil rushed over untouched. Mackmull's placement flew wide to the right, but because Harvard was offside, Jack got another chance to prolong his conversion string. This time, it was blocked, ending his successes at 17 straight. Toward lhe end of the period. JfJ ,11 THSr V5 Army's On the March! son cripples on the sideline.

Slow to start, the Cadet crushers suddenly stunned the 40,000 fans by pushing over their first two TD's within 38 seconds of each other, and from that moment there were just two questions: (1) Would the soldiers surpass the 48-0 drubbing handed Harvard by Yale in 1884, and (2) would Harvard have enough football players left to finish the game in 1949. Army won, 54-14. FIRST PERIOD The suffering in store for the Harvards was indicated on the fiist play. Mackmull kicked off to Roche, who took it on the 3 and sprinted into a wan. wnen tne mass un-piled, the ball was on the 26 and Roche was flat on his back.

The Crimson gave its followers an il-lusionary hope by driving to the Cadet 39 on the toting of Noonan and White, but when Henry passed to Hyde a moment- later, the receiver was hit so stiffly, he fumbled and Galloway recovered for the Cadets on their 29. Then started the terrible drive of attrition. It took 17 plays as the Cadets chewed gains out in short, jarring chunks. Finally, Stephenson slammed into the wearying Harvard line for the final four yards. Gal iff a and Kain, and Kuck-hahn and Fischl had done the heavy work.

There, with the ball on the 4, Stephenson took it over the line. Mackmull toed his 14th straight conversion for Army. On the ensuing kickoff, Noonan was rocked so fiercely by Trent as he ran it back, he fumbled Stone recovering for Army on the Harvard 15. Two plays, and it was another TD 38 seconds from the previous score. First Fischl knifed to the 3 on a quick opener, then Stephenson again squirmed over the right side.

Mackmull's toe made is 14-0. Late in the quarter, Army Unbeaten Army scored early and often against Harvard at Cambridge, Mass. Here two hapless Crimson tacklers grab Army fullback Gil Stephenson (37) fore and aft, but they can't stop his touchdown march from four-yard line in first period. Yale at Its Bulldog Best, But Big Red Romps48-14 By Dana Mozley New Haven, Oct. 15.

Since the Yale Bulldog was at his growling best this afternoon, the fact that mighty Cornell had already rolled to a commanding 20-7 lead by halftime gave some 45,000 Bowl fans a good insight into the big Red team from Ithaca which is battling Army for the Eastern Army Harvard Tor. L. L. L. E.G.

SECOND PERIOD. With Stephenson's fumble having averted another Army TD just before the period opened, the Cadets were scoreless for longer than necessary in the second stanza. Blaik's second back-field, wjth his son, Bob, handling it found the Harvards with dimiir ishing strength but continued spirit. Almost every time a Crimson made a fine tackle, or caught a pass, his next move was off the field with help. Finally, after Shira had belted Noonan and le-covered the resultant fumble on Harvard's 27, the Cadets went over.

Score: Cornell .20, Yale 7- TniRD PERIOD As soon as Chollet had run back a Jackson punt 25 yards to the Yale 45 early in the session, the Red second backfield took over and luarched all the way. It took six plays, with Babula, who'd twice skirted left and for 25 yards, bull ing four over for the score.

Three minutes later, at 7:54, Cornell had another. And again it could thank Chollet. He intercepted a long pass by Robertson with a leaping, operhead catch and ran 20 yards to the Yale 34. Hull and Babula got it to the. 15, Dorset hit Hull with a sideline pass on the one and Fleischmann took it over from there.

With Jackson and Tisdale taking turns pitching, Yale moved up 60 yards near the end of the period, only to have this snuffed out when Marchant, a third-string Cornell back, thefted a Jackson pass on the 10.

Final: Cornell 48, Yale 14. championship. Cornell won, 48-14. "With the heavier Cornell line charging as if unopposed, with Hil-liary Chollet and Frank Miller running amok and with Lynn Dorset passing unerringly to his downfield targets, Cornell scored early in the first quarter, again on the first play of the second and repeated, via a Chollet show, just before intermis- i sion. A short pass, Stu Tisdale to end Johnny Setear, produced Yale's TD in the second period, after a brilliant Sl-yard kickoff return by Bob Raines had set it up.

FIRST PERIOD Cornell, which must have known something, elected to receive the kickoff and thereupon went all the way for a touchdown. A brilliant 56-year return by Chollet, from his own five to the Eli 39, set it up. The New Orieans Hash grabbed the ball midway between the stripes, angled to the left sideline and was finally knocked ut of bounds by Raines. Seven plays later, they had a touchdown. Two short Dorset aerials helped move them up to the 23, from whence Dorsett hit Bruska with a pass.

Bruska scampered the last eight into the end zone. Kirks attempted conversion was short at 2:34. Score: Cornell 6, Yale 0. SECOND PERIOD On the first play, Fleischmann cracked over left guard for the score. Kirk converted and Cornell led, 13-0.

The second brilliant kick-off return of the game, this time by Yale's soon culminated in the Klis breaking tne ice. promoted to the regulars in place of Nadherny this week, Raines grabbed Kirk's towering boot on his 10, faked toward the left sideline, cut back through a gaping hole up the middle and went 81 yards to the enemy nine before Fleischmann brought him down from behind. Five plays later, Tisdale, after faking a handoff to Spears, lobbed a high four-yard pass to Setear in the end zone. That came at 2:25, and Palmer's placekick made it 13-7. Chollet, who was doing sonie mighty good defensive work as well as neiping miner ana leiscnmann scramble the Eli line, was on both ends of his team's third TD drive.

He intercepted a Tisdale pass at midfield and ran it to the Yale 37.
