Everybody remembers how the tide of the game went, and every Western Marylander has his own the- ory as to how the Green Terrors could have saved a game that was in their grasp. Except for the last few minutes, Western Maryland's first string was fighting during the whole game. And if you don't believe that, you should have been in the dressing room ten minutes after the final whistle blew. There were almost tears from some of the fellows as they dragged their weary bodies out of sweat-soaked uni- forms. A fighting Terror team went down before a team that had better reserve strength and a great passer. By the time the fourth quarter rolled around, the eleven iron men couldn't take advantage of the breaks and stop a fresh Maryland offensive. The Ter- ror substitutes were not equal to the task of holding the Terps, and conse- quently the Maryland gang went to town in the last round up. Weidinger Led Terps Despite their "wheel chair brigade" the Terps had a capable crew of sub- stitutes to send in. However, Weid- inger, quarterback, and Albarano, tackle, never left the game, but filled the Terror ranks with increasing woe. Charlie Weidinger certainly lived up to his name as nu_mber one man of the Terps. 1939 will see the two teams meet for the 29th time in the oldest athletic rivalry of either school. The Terrors will have to wait till then to cut down on the two game lead that the Terps have now acquired. Fourth QUarter Games western Maryland wasn't the only team that lost last Saturday in the closing: stages of the game. S~m'e footliall ang~i must ha';e changed its mind at 4 o'clock or thereabouts that day . Yale over- took Navy in the fourth frame with a touchdown and a field goal to win the game, 9-7. Syracuse scored three goals with nine min- utes to play to defeat Cornell, 19-17. Minnesota overtook Mich- igan, 7-6, in the fourth Quarter. A pass at the end of the game gave Army a, 20-17, victory over Har- vard. Several more similar games throughout the country can be cited.
