•• T the beginning of the 1935 football season many eyes turned to A Western Maryland College, for the football set-up here was enig- matic, to say the least. The previous season Dick Harlow had given the press plenty to write about by turning out an undefeated team and by supplying the nation's leading college scorer of the season in Bill Shep- herd. But this year the layout was much different, and fans began to wonder how the 1935 Terrors would compare to the magnificent eleven of the 1934 campaign Harlow had accepted the post of head coach at Harvard University, and in his stead, "Charley" Havens, former Terror AIl,Maryland center, held the coaching reins. To assist him illlhis first year at this institution Havens selected "Goose" Doughty, a former Western Maryland back- field star, and Bruce Ferguson, ace blocking back of the 1934 team, as CHARLIE HAVENS his immediate aids. Another member of the undefeated eleven, "Joe" Head Coach Lipsky, was appointed coach of the frosh team. The new staff had a man-sized job before it. Most of the football regulars had been graduated. Gone were "Bill" Shepherd, an All, American halfl-aok, and his running mates, McNally. Scbwieker. and Mergo. Gone was Ferguson, a most important cog in that famous back- field "Charley" had no men like "Bernie" Kaplan and "Horse" Kaplan to plug the holes in the forward wall "Andy" Gorski, Webster Lucas, "Clem" Marks, "Joe" Lipsky. and "Johnny" Blissman had played their last games for the Green and Gold. Havens was faced with, the task of building a sophomore eleven with only a sprinkling of veterans to use as a nucleus. Although the outlook was dark, there were some bright spots in it. Captain "Nick" Campofreda, who had played guard the previous season Lesh. Cce.Drrenai. Haynes and had been one of the seven towers of the "Iron Man" eleven, was Second Row Mgr. Beauchamp, Keyser, slated to play tackle this year. Louis Lassahn, sophomore end of 1934, Commerford, Lassahn. was counted on to hold down one flank. In the backfield were "Jim" Woodbury, Capt Campo- freda, Draper. Lathrop. Woodbury. "Bull" Draper. and "Cliff" Latrop. all of whom had seen Graham. Pontecorvo, Mgr While nirdRaw Asst.
