...Army beat Navy for the fourth year in a row. This year's less-than-great Army team held Navy scoreless (21-0), which the Blanchard & Davis teams of other years were never able to do. Hero of the day: Rip Rowan, who ran 92 yards for one touchdown, threw a pass for another...
...Knute Rockne (an end) and Gus Dorais (a quarterback) put on a great passing show. Until three years ago, Notre Dame had a top-heavy edge of 22 victories to five losses.

Later on, in the newareel a Columbia end called Swiacki catches several passes from a prose position and beats Army. All in all, there is no grid lack at the U.T. this week...
