(Stickles, of Notre Dame kicked the extra point to make it a 7-0 ballgame.) Scene shifts to presentation of the Heisman trophy to halfback, John David Crow, of Texas A&M on December 11, 1957.

Another unusual 1957 game is shown in which the players contend with rain and mud that makes play practically impossible.
