The Irish weren’t perfect against / Army. They lost two touchdoWns because they got their signals mixed up on the Cadet 2-yard line early in the game and because no one got doWnfield to block for Johnny Yonakor when he shared a 68-yard pass from Johnny Lujack. These errors might have ratified another / team. but the Ramblers overcame them with ease and it is doubtful if many in the crowd of 10000 at Yankee Stadium realized they had slipped up. - Blaik Sweet on Lujack.
