game ended with the Terrors having the ball on the Gettysburg 27 yard line. The following Friday night in Wilmington, Western Maryland tried vainly to stop the winning streak of Delaware's Blue Hens that had reached twenty-seven before the Terrors entered the ball park. The demoralizing play of the game occurred when Delaware's end, Thompson, returned AI Malone's kickoff ninety- eight yards for a touchdown. In the second half the strong Blue Hens scored almost at will, as four of the Terror starting linemen were out with iniuries. Kittner's knee injury sidelined him for the remainder of the season.

It appeared that the She-men would upset the Terrors since the Green attack would bog down when the ball was deep in the Washington territory. Corrado tied the score with a twa-yard buck in the last quarter and Joe Giannelli sent the Westminster team ahead when he ran twenty-two yards for a touchdown. Corrado place-kicked the extra point and that was the ball qome.
