Goal Storts Terps
On Path to Defeat
BY BURTON HAWKINS.

forms of Abisha (Bosh) Pritchard
and Joe Muha of " M. I. yesterday
at College Park and another defeat
developed for the Terps. This time
the score was 27-0, with Pritchard
and Muha distributing the scoring
between them.
1t was a large afternoon for 164-
pound Pritchard and the burly 210-
pound Muha. They had been adj
vertised as likely to create consid-
erable trouble for the Terps, but
Maryland wasn't expecting they'd
dominate the proceedings so thor
oughly.
Each scored two touchdownS, with
Muha twice converting and Muha
adding the final point from place
ment. When they weren't scoring
they were gobbling up huge hunks
of ground for the Cadets, who
we're achieving their third victory
and their largest score of the season
before 5000 fans.
The prodigious punting of End
Duke Alexander kept Maryland in
the game during the first period
the noted high jumper on one oc-
casion booting IS yards from the
line of scrimmage-buti in the second
period the Terps received a bitter
break and v. M. 1. capitalized on
II to start the rout.
Returns Punt to Score.
That break. which was tantamount
to compound fracture, came mid
way in the second period when
Marylands Bernie Ulman was
charged with clipping Tackle Clyde
Ellington. The infraction occurred
on Maryland's 10-yard line and the
Terps were set back to their own l.
Alexander booted out to Pritchard
on the Maryland 35 and he tucked
in the ball. headed for the sidelines,
bounced off three Terps at the 20
and scooted the remaining distance
untouched. Nelson Catlett's attempt
ed conversion was wide, which en-
abled Pritchard and Muha TO ham
die the scoring exclusively.
v. M. l., held pointless only once
this season and a producer of three
touchdoWns against Army, struck
through the air later in that second
period and again it was Pritchard
and Muha who collaborated in the
scoring
Aided by an offside penalty on
fourth down that moved them to
Maryland's 40, the Cadets again
grasped the breaks to score. Pritch-
ard drifted back from the 40 and
fired long, soaring pass to Muha,
who caught the ball in spectacular
overtime he-shoulder h on while
stumbling on the 5-yard line. He
romped the remaining yardage while
struggling to stay on his feet, then
converted to present V. M. l. 1870
half-time lead.
Terrapin Attack Stalls.
Maryland showed signs of making
q close battle of it when Elmer Rigby
returned Muha's third-period kick
off SO yards to the V. M. I. At, but
that attack stalled and later in the
session the Cadets launched drive
from their own 35.
Muha clicked off 7 yards and
Pritchard passed to End Billy Clark
for y more. Catlett, Muha and
Pritchard pounded the tackles and
guards to move to the Is and Char
ley Parkins lugged to the 9 on an
end-around maneuver Muha sliced
through tackle for yards, then
plowed over right guard to score
from yard out. Again Muha con-
verted.
The Terps, with Rigby, Ulman,
Tommy Mont and Jack Mier clicking
nicely, moved 81 yards to the V. M. l.
10 after Ulman had recovered Emil
Sotnyk's tumble on the Cadets Al.
Rigbys fourth-down bid fell inches
short of a first down at the 10 and
v. M. I. took over.
Twice Maryland throttled V. M. I.
scoring attempts with game goal
line stands in the final period before
the Cadets clicked for their fourth
touchdown. The first V. M. I. surge
downfield was checked when Catlett
fumbled in the end zone and Mary
land recovered, while the second
attempt choked on the 1-foot line.
Jarm0ska Sprains Leg.
That second gallant goal-line
stand sent Center George Jarmoska
to the Maryland infirmary with a
severely sprained left leg and it was
ironical when the Cadets bounced
back anyway to produce their final
score.
The stage was set for that when
Pritchard returned Ulman's punt 10
yards to Marylands 81. Pritchard
then tipped a crisp pass to Muha,
who stepped out of bounds on the
5-yard line Muha hit left guard for
2 yards, then Pritchard streaked
around left end to score on reverse.
Pritchard also converted.
Maryland outgained V. NJ. I. on
the ground-101 yards to 95-but it
was In the air that the Cadets
showed marked superiority. The
Cadets completed II of 10 passes for
l63 yards, while Maryland clicked
on 9 of 20 aerials to gain SO yards.
