. . . a t the very moment, when the p la y e r “ lifts '1 the b a ll into
shooting position, a miracle takes p la c e : from underneath the
board , a hid den m echanical p o w e r-p la n t propels the “ f o o tb a ll”
onto a m oving f i e l d a n d sets the stage for action.
. . . the plu nger is p u lle d back, aim ed, and . . . out speeds a b a ll
o f silvery steel. Down the fi e l d it races. Dodges. Twists and
turns. Runs in a n d out o f the “ guard pins” . A n d , then, for a split-
second, it is stopped. Blocked. A shout goes up from the crowd,
as the ball, with an elusive twist, spins aw a y and glides into a
c o ve ted N a v y pocket. It's a touchdown for N a v y ! A n d , au to ­
m a tic ally, as i f by magic, the moving p la y i n g -f i e l d snaps the
f o o tb a ll across the goal line.

O n the n e x t p la y, however, the speeding b a ll is i n te rc e p te d by
an A r m y p oc ke t, and it goes for a touchdown. The score is now
6 to 6 . A tie. A n d so the game see-saws back a n d forth. I t ’s nip
