The Unbeatens

Army got past Michigan (20-13) but--unless they found some first-class reserve troops quickly--it looked like the beginning of the end. The soldier who saved the day was brilliant Glenn Davis (junior partner in Davis, Blanchard & Co.), who squirmed through the entire Michigan team for 58 yds. and a touchdown. He tossed seven passes, completed seven; got bruised and tired from playing almost the whole 60 minutes. So did the rest of Army's first stringers. Some of the season's other unbeatens:

P: Notre Dame (TIME, Oct. 14), pointing exclusively for Army, throttled down to the fourth team, drove past Purdue, 49-6.

P: Columbia, with Army next on its list, upended Yale in a 28-20 thriller.

P: Texas--which an A.P. sportswriters' poll rated No. i in the nation--needed all three of Fullback Bobby Layne's triple threats to beat Oklahoma.

P: Pennsylvania, abetted by Halfback Skip Minisi, beat Dartmouth, 39-6.

P: Dazzling U.C.L.A., the West Coast's odds-on Rose Bowl favorite, breezed past Stanford, 26-6.

P: Feminine Skidmore College, which let in men for the first time in its history, held Brown Prep school to a scoreless tie. Probable next opponent: Vassar, which also has a few boys around.
