EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken on November 10,1928, we witness a historic clash between Notre Dame and Army at the iconic Yankee Stadium in New York City. The atmosphere is electric as Jack Chevigny of Notre Dame charges forward, making an impressive twenty-five yard gain against the formidable Army team. This game holds particular significance as it took place shortly after Knute Rockne's legendary "Win One For The Gipper" speech. As fate would have it, Chevigny later scored a crucial touchdown to tie the game and exclaimed with determination, "That's one for the Gipper". This powerful moment symbolized the indomitable spirit of Notre Dame and fueled their eventual victory with a final score of 12-6. However, amidst these triumphs lies a tragic twist. Jack Chevigny's life was cut short during World War II when he valiantly fought in the battle of Iwo Jima. His bravery on both the football field and battlefield serves as a poignant reminder of his unwavering dedication to his country. This vintage photograph captures not only an intense football match but also echoes an era defined by passion for sportsmanship and patriotism. It stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of athletes like Jack Chevigny who embodied courage both on and off the field.
