he was as sophomore. He was
injured against Michigan State

then he was hurt against Duke.
It would have made a difference
If he had been with us all the

"Krouse's case was similar. He
had the flu against Georgia and

big boy like that into shape again.
He was hurt. too. and it wasn't
until the end of the season, the
last two games, that we really
were able to get the kind Of play
ing out Of him we would have
liked to have had all along. But
when he was in. shape he was
the best. Petruzzo was the same
way. In spring practice it looked
like we were going to get a lot

he was hurt in fall practice end
that was that. But he'll be back

Maryland wrapped up its foot

for the Terrapins by their more
ardent supporters this season. but

II would like to have a record
like that every year." said Tatum.
1--WE beat some pretty good
teams"
Maryland victories were over
Navy, Michigan State. George
town. Duke. George Washington.
West Virginia and Virginia Tech.
The losses were to Georgia and
North Carolina State and the tie
was with North Carolina.
Michigan State was our best
victory, and the loss to State our
biggest disappointment" Tatum
said last night in discussing the
season. But I think that all in
all we had a good year. We had
some disappointments. naturally,
but also plenty to be proud about.
The schedule had good teams all
the way, but wasn't balanced
enough. We weren't ready for
Georgia in that first game. We
just weren't in shape and the heat
killed us.
Little Mo Filled Gap.
81 would like to start with some
thing bit easier and build up to
stronger teams every week. It's
hard to start with Georgia, Navy
and Michigan State and keep at
a high pitch all season and we
weren't able to do it. Frankly I
like next years schedule better
and I only hope we can do well
with it.
The play of several individuals
gave Tatum his most pleasant mo-
ments during the season. The way
q lot of sophomores came through
particularly pleased the big coach.
"We had q lot Of first-year men
who played as good as any of the
more experienced players. and that
helped a lot" said Tatum. Scar
bath (Johnny Scarbath. quarter
back and Fullerton (Joe Fuller
ton, halfback) were a big help and
think that If we'd had them
against Carolina it wouldn't have
been a tie. We don't cry a lot
about injuries. but when we didn't
have those two 1t hurt.
Little Mo dick Modzelewski
235-pound tackle) was great on
defense. I'd say he was as good
as any lineman I had this year.
I'm glad I have him to take Ray
Krouse's place next year. In fact,
he took 1t this year when Krouse
was sick at iirst and then hurt.
and I had a hard time getting
Krouse back into the lineup after
the great way Mo played.
There was one player all the
sports writer's overlooked con-
tinued Tatum, "and THAT was
Dave Cianelli. Al, our opponents
told US their scouts picked him
as our best line backer, and he
was just that. He is a Junior
and he's another player who will
help us next year. John Alder
ton. our defensive right end, was
another good player a lot of folks
overlooked, but It was nice to have
a sophomore like that break into
the defensive lineup.
Injuries Slowed Several.

center, was another sophomore
who went great, and 50 did Pete

If the game had been called of

not nave been postponed-Ohio

Ohio State won five. lost one;

Fesler stuck by his guns.
