Army Navy break may end sooner than thought
By Alan J. Gould Associated Press Sports Writer, New York Sept 28. The historic army navy break in athletic relations from the 1928 season may be patched up sooner than expected. Reconciliation and a return to play on the gridiron could occur despite rugged, independent schedules. If not, football relations would be on a primary basis, with Navy likely to concede West Point's right to play regardless of past college experience.
