O'LEAR WEISBECK CLARK vied with determination. After the Terrors scored their second touchdown at the end of a seventy yard march, the Bullets came back with their aerial tactics and, on a pass that was good for eighty yards and a touchdown, again tied the score. A few minutes later Neal received the kick-off and ran fifty yards before being downed, thus starting the drive that ended in Western Maryland's last score. Once more Gettysburg resorted to those Bullet passes that had been so successful against the Terror defense, and once more they crossed the goal line. While the fans held their breaths, Spangler missed the winning point and the game ended a few minutes later in a 19-19 tie. Saint Francis was defeated by the Terrors in an uneventful game by a score of 18-0. In the final game of the season Muhlenburg paid dearly for their 6-2 victory of the 1927 season. Neal, Long, and Gomsak, aided by a splendid line, ran roughshod through the Cardinals, accounting for eight touchdowns. So completely was the Muh- lenberg team outclassed that they made only three first downs, and these were against the "subs," while W. M. made twenty-six, showing that the Green Terror machine functioned at its best. Thus ended a season that brought Western Maryland high recognition in football circles. page one h.undred seventy-nine
