Lathrop's running and Campbell's tossing keeping the hosts on their toes, but they lacked that vital punch within the five yard line. Undismayed, the Green and Gold again invaded Pennsylvania to play Penn State on the latter's field. The Nirrany Lions had a fairly powerful team but the Terrors were expected to beat them. An un- fortunate safety was the cause of the Terror defeat. The Lions stalked off the gridiron with a 2 to 0 victory. On October 19 the Terrors were host to Bucknell University at the Caplaill CAMPOFREDA Baltimore Stadium. The Bisons, aways strong, had fought stubbornly in the 1934 contest before succumbing to Western Maryland by a 6 to 0 score. This year they brought to Baltimore three members of their 1934 starting backfield. Sitarsky, Miller, and Smith. All three were large, fast, hard-running backs. Both teams were afflicted with minor injuries but none of them were sufF.cient to keep any regulars out of the lineup. The game was disappointingly slow. The Green and Gold played W.M.47-0Shenandoah sloppily, and the vaunted Bison attack was missing.

There was talk that the Emmittsburg team W. M. 14-10 Georgetown would no longer be a setup for the Westmjnster eleven. Rieth was W. M. 7-22 Univ. of Md. definitely out, but during the week before the game this handicap was somewhat offset by the Mount's loss of the services of Corning Smyth, backfield ace. The Terrors met a revamped Mount team and broke their losing streak, but only after a stubborn cattle. Lathrop scored the only touchdown of the day when he bucked over from the two yard line in the first half. Brennan kicked the point, and the Terrors hung up a 7 to 0 triumph. The pass defense that Havens had stressed was very effective against the Lawlcrmen. Then came the second "breather."
