AND FINAL RALLY

Freak Army Strategy and
Overcome Lead in Daz

By ALAN could.
(Associated Press Sport Editor)
NEW YORK, DJ. 2.AF) Turn
ing an apparent rout Into an astound
ing victory, Notre Dame'si hitherto
' battered and baffled green shlrta
pulled themaelvee back from the
depth of a dlaastroua campaign to
day to overcome Army' two-touchdown
lead In a 'dazzling fourth pe
riod rally and amaah the winning
atreak of the cadets In the biggest
upset of the 1933 college football wa
gon. The final score was 18 to 12 as
the fighting Irish, In the space of
leas than five minutes, wiped out
West Point's big lead and pulled the
game out of the fire with a comeback
that was as swift as It was startling
to a near-capacity crowd of 76,000.
The breaks were a long time coming
to the underdogs from South Bend,
harassed and outplayed for three pe
riods by an unbeaten soldier team,
but when they came they exploded
with bombshell effect In one of the
wildest gridiron llnlehea New York
has ever witnessed.
It was a marvelous triumph for a
team that had tasted little previously
this season except football bitter
ness, especially as it came In the last
period ot the last game against tneir
most cherished rival, nut it. was
nattering climax for an army team
that had whipped everything else all
season and which looked to be headed
toward West Point's first clean slate
' in 17 years.
The blow was. hardly softened by
the fact that Army's tactics, In de
fense of Its ia-polnt lead appeared
questionable and that a substitute
for all-America Jack Buckler, Mau
rice Simons, was the victim of the
play that decided the game. Buckler
wae on the sidelines, preparatory to
being rushed back Into the game,
when Simons' attempted punt from
behind the cadet goal-line was block
ed by a wall of green from the left
aide of the Notre Dame line and re
eovered for the second touchdown by
Wayne Mlllner, Salem, Mass.
A Sub Is Crashed.
Mlllner, followed by big Ed Krsuse,
tar tackle, swarmed over the substi
tute Army halfback as he dropped
the ball to. his toe. It looked like
questionable strategy by the cadets,
who might have pulled themselves
out of the hole with an Intentional
safety, but they elected to take the
chance and suffered Its dlsaatrous
effects. When the pile waa untsn
gled Just over the goal line, Mlllner
was found to have the ball firmly In
hi grasp for the six points that
put Notre Dame In front and clinched
the ball game.
This was the climax of a comeback
that was wildly thrilling and almost
berserk In Its Intensity, as the Irish
fought for a victory that goes a long
way toward making thorn forget their
previous string or reverses, but loom'
lng In the background wae the drop,
kick for extra point, made by Rey
man Bonar, quarterback from Bel.
lelre, Ohio, after Nick lAikata ot
Perth Amboy, N. J., had lugged the
ball over Army's goal Una for Notre
Dame a first touchdown.
The Point That Counted.
Bonar, who emerged heiolcally In
the triumph and whose "fight-talk"
seemed to Inspire his teammates In
the last period, took extra time In
preparing for the kick that proved so
all-Important In the final reckoning.
Succeeding, where Army's Jack Buck
ler twice had failed to convert, Bo
nar aent the crowd Into the wildest
kind of an outburst and lit the spark
to the concluding explosion.
The Cadeta were hevliur some trou
ble holding their opponents' runilng
attack, but they were playing smarter
football, taking advantage of the
breaks and seemingly so confident,
once they got Into the lead, that
Beany Johnson deigned completely
the risk of returning any of the long
punts booted by Lukate, Banas or
other Irish kickers. Aa It turned out,
this doubtful strategy helped put
Army finally Into a hole that It tailed
to escape from, as Luksts' punt In the
fourth period rolled deed on Army's
and put Simons on the spot aa his
goal-line punt waa smothered.
After this debacle, Buckler and
other Army regulars were rushed back
Into the game, but It was too late
then to stop the wild charge of the
Notre Dame forces who we not to
be denied their long-sought conquest
once they gained the upper hsnd.
The Cadets never were able to get
within scoring range again and the
final whistle blew with the Irish on
Army 18, aa Itobln. subatltute back.
