Army Closes 1920 1930 Illinois Football Scheduling Pact
New York April 4 UR Seeking to fit the hole in the schedule the Army signed a home contract with the University of Illinois for football in 1920 and 1930. The arrangement approved by the secretary of war has the Army travel to Urbana to meet the Illini in November with Minow expected for the return game at New York or West Point. Notre Dame appears on the 1924-25 slate, while future changes could shift opponents, including a possible Nebraska swap. This marks Army’s first Western inter sectional game and its first clash with a Big Ten team since Chicago’s 1920 defeat at West Point.
