![]() In between halves this same lad was chuckling to himself. On the next play Stuhldreher tossed a 25 yard pass to Layden for a score. ![]() Some time later Notre Dame was again stopped and again this non-Catholic called on the boys for a Hail Mary. In the huddle the boys were surprised to hear the non-Catholic say: 'C'mon fellows let's have a 'Hail Mary.' The boys said the quick prayer and on the next play Jimmy Crowley dashed 30 yards for a touchdown. ![]() After the game, Kizer said, "Say, that Hail Mary is the best play we've got." An account written in 1935 presented a variation on the 1922 "Hail Mary" play as follows: On the next possession, Kizer said, "Let's have another Hail Mary," and Layden scored another touchdown. Noble Kizer, the one Presbyterian player on the Notre Dame team, stopped play and said to his teammates, "Boys, let's have a Hail Mary." They all prayed, and Elmer Layden scored a touchdown. Notre Dame trailed 3–0 in the second half and had been unable to move the ball effectively.
