Gattuso, Navy's leading scorer during the4 regular season, ac counted for two touchdowns, and Weaver, a third-string quar terback until midway in the season when he was switched to halfback, scored one and kicked' three extra points.

The game was Navy's first ap pearance in the Sugar Bowl and its second post-season game in history. In 1924 it played Wash ington to a 14-14 tie in the Rose Bowl. So apt was Navy's defense that Mississippi penetrated the Navy territory only three times all afternoon, once against Navy's third team in the waning minutes of the game.
