Army 21, Navy 21

The Army-Navy game was moved out of the East for the first time as 110,000 fans crammed inside the newly dedicated Soldier Field to witness one of the truly classic editions of this storied rivalry. Navy jumped out to a 14-0 lead as Army coach Biff Jones started his second unit to “soften” the Navy team for his own first unit. The Black Knights quickly tied the score with their first teamers on the field as “Lighthorse” Harry Wilson and Skip Harold found the Navy end zone. Army took a 21-14 lead late until late in the fourth quarter, when Navy’s Tom Hamilton worked a slick reverse that sprang Alan Shapley untouched toward the Army goal. Hamilton then calmly drop-kicked the extra point.
