THE BATTALION
Army Tops Air Force
In Twelfth Man Bowl
It was a good game, were the
words of coaches for both teams
after the Army toppled the Air
Force 6-0 in the annual Twelfth
Man Bowl game on Kyle Field last
Friday night.
The teams battled all over the
field showing some Tine running
and tackling. Both lines were very
aggressive as the Army demon
strated on the first play from
scrimmage as they jumped the gun
to draw the first penalty of the
game.
The Air Force won the toss and
chose to receive. Don Hoffman
kicked off for the Army to Scott
Brown who fumbled the ball but
recovered it for the Air Force. On
their fourth play the Airmen fum
bled again and big Tom Jones re
covered for the Army on the Air
Force 15.
Army Scores First
The Army failed to score and
after the Airmen took over in their
eight they punted on first down.
Taking over in their own end of
the field the Army drove all the
way for the games only score.

Frank Haynes, quarterback for the
Army handed off to Hoffman on
a delay up the middle and he went
in for the touchdown from the
nine. Hoffman’s try for extra point
was blocked.
The first quarter was over af
ter the kickoff leaving the Air
Force with the ball on their own
30. From here Fred Billings lead
his team on their longest drive of
the game. With the hard running
of Jack Connor, Ronnie Early and
Brown the Flyboys drove to the
Army six. An offside penalty by
the Army put the ball on the 3
but then the Airmen began to lose
yards as the Army line set them
back three plays in a row.
Taking the ball over on downs
the Army made one first down be
fore the gun went off for the half.
Drives Fail
During the second half neither
team could seem to drive on the
other one. Once in the fourth
quarter Woody Earnst) carried the
ball down to the eight yard line of
the Air Force but a clipping pen
alty put the ball back on the 13.
This was the closest either team
came to scoring in the second half.
The defensive game was the
most impressive part of the game
because popping of leather could be
heard clearly by the spectators in
the stands. Leading the defensive
line for the Airmen was Wayland
Ward, Ralph Burton, Tom White,
and Paul Barsotti.
The Army’s forward wall was
