  Navy Downs Villanoua In Free-Scorinq Game ANNAPOLIS, Md, Sept. 29.-LR Clyde Scott, the kid from Smack over, Ark, dinamited Villanova’s Wildcats with two touchdowns in the first six minutes of play today and Navy’s Midshipmen shuffled along in record-breaking SepteH- Der heat to an easy 49 to 0 foot ball triumph that was not quite as impressive as the score. Lifting the curtain on its version of the Information for the first time, Comdr. Oscar Hagberg’s sailor outfit looked like champion ship club only for the first IA mi utes of the game when Robert Hornschemeyer, the old Indiana flash, was master-minding the Navy eleven and teaming up with Scott in the scoring antics.
