...Jack Hunter who climaxed this drive by skimming over the 220 yard lows through quagmire conditions to clinch the meet for the Crimson. During the same drive, Hugh de Fries, running his last 880 for the Crimson, slogged home ahead of the field in 2.04, after putting Duncan Blanchard of Tufts out of the race with a 59 first quarter...

...Manhattan's Madison Square Garden, West Point's track & field men ran away with the I.C. 4-A indoor championships. They began demoralizing the opposition by taking first, second and third in the first event, the shot put. Felix ("Muscles") Blanchard, the 220-lb. plebe, set the pace with a 48 ft. 3½-in. heave. The Cadets took only two other firsts-against four, and one tie, for Navy-but Army placed in 13 events to pile up a record 73½-points. Navy, second with 55½, also topped the I.C.4-A winner's mark...

Davis breaking loose, Blanchard bulling through (and knocking down, punting, kicking off into the end zone, tackling for keeps, intercepting Navy passes) these were the stars of the year's best backfield, and they lived up to every pre-game adjective. But West Point had a line as well as a backfield. Any doubt about that, and there was some, was short-lived. The Cadets had the best of it up front, as elsewhere. The score-Army 23, Navy 7-fairly measured the edge of the whole Army team, with its tremendous reserve strength, over Navy minus Whitmire...
