If I hadn't seen this game with my own two oyes I would nover. have believed it was possible for any football team to have as many scoring chances as the Army... and yet bo lucky, and glad, to scrape through to a face-saving 2-1 victory. The whole thing had to be seen to be believed. The soldiers should have won by a cricket score. They attackeil the Jardine's goal- for more than three quarters of the game and yet the only two goals they managed to chalk up were both the direct result of bad errors by goalkeeper Tam Woon-cheuk... and at the other end McNicol joined the frolic by losing a 'queer' goal that probably haunted his sleep last night.

Over Senators
New York, May 18. The New York Yankees, getting a pair of thrillingly-pitched games before a crowd that included Vice-President Richard Nixon, ballooned their American League lead to 61⁄2 games on Sunday when they scored 5-2 and 3-0 triumphs over the Washington Senators. The second-place Kansas City Athletics, with a 13-12 record, are the only other team in the League over 500. The Yankees, who have won six straight and 10 of 11 games, are 14 games over 500 with a 19-5 record.
