Nov. 9 iJP) Two mighty football elevens ripped and slashed and tore at each other for 60 action-crammed minutes on the turf of Yankee Stadium today, and when it was over the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame were forced to settle for a scoreless tie and the distinction of having shattered Army'i 25-game winning streak.

The first great postwar college classic, played before a capacity throng of more than 74.000 in perfect football weather, saw the redoubtable Black Knights from West Point threaten repeatedly after recovering Notre Dame fumbles and intercepting wayward Irish passes, but they could not score. Touted as one of the most terrific teams ever to come out of South Bend, the burly Irish powered 84 yards down to Army's three-yard stripe in the second quarter in their only real offensive gesture. Only the one time did they carry the ball past midfield, though twice in the second half they fell upon Army fumbles in Cadet territory and could do nothing with the port unity. Armys all-conquering team, facing its first major test from a team filled with thoughts of revenge for beatings absorbed the past two years, muffed its best scoring chance in the opening period, when it was held for downs on the Notre Dame 13 after Goble Bryant, right tackle, had recovered an Irish fumble on the 24. It was a bruising, breathless Only two Army players.
