ball Dick Burgee Subbed for him
on defense. Bernie came back in
with the rest of the first team
early in the second quarter when
Alabama had first down on the
Maryland 12-yard line. He bat
ted down a pass in the end zone,
almost intercepting it.
Faloney completed a pass to
Hanulak on the play on which
he was hurt. but as he went
down it was obvious that Bernie
was in great pain. He was helped
to the sidelines and tried to put
weight on the knee, but it gave
way.
Faloney came back in sweat
clothes for the second half. and
was half carried from the dress
room to the bench.
Coach Jim Tatum ran up and
down the sidelineS. trying to
catch an officials ear to claim
Alabama had roughed up Fall
oney. He gave the unnecessary
roughness salute but nobody
would listen. Wyre tried to tell
the officials, but they waved him
away.
After the game Tatum did not
wish to pursue the matter any
further. He said it was closed
incident. Faloney said Youngel-
man hit him when he was off
balance and his leg gave way.
Wyre bandaged Faloney's knee
after the game and will examine
1t further this morning at $50.
He said it will require a long
rest, which means Faloney will
not work with the team when it
resumes practice for the Orange
Bowl.
Boxold Handicapped.
Charley Boxold. Faloney's re-
placement, moved the Terps only
once for a touchdown after
Bernie was hurt.
Tommy Mont. the TerpS' back
field coach on offense. explained
that BoXold is not familiar with
the f1rst-team backf1eld and his
count may be fraction of a
second off and his handoffs
slightly different. The Maryland
coaches believe he has the
ability, and he will be working
with the first backf1eld when it
resumes practice.
Boxold will come closer to
matching Faloney on offense
than on defense. Bernie has few
equals in the Nation as a defen-
sive back.
The Maryland dressing room
again lacked celebration. After
all. this team has won 20 of
its last 81 games. Two years
ago Tatum was thrown into the
shower when Maryland COM
pleted it's first unbeaten season.
There was no thought of that
yesterday. In fact the biggest
topic was the Notre Dame-Iowa
score, which the players at first
enormously learned was 14-7
for Iowa. There was a letdown
when they heard the correct
14-14 final.
Tatum had praise for almost
everybody and bear hugs for
Stanley Jones and Blubber Nor
gan. the tackles who were the
strong men of Maryland's goal
line stands. After all, Tatum
himself was a tackle.
Tatum Proud of Shutouts.
who would have ever thought
we'd go through this schedule
with six shutouts?" Tatum
asked out loud. six shutouts,
think Of that" he repeated, as
the defensive coach came out
in him.
Red Drew (the Alabama
coach) said he never had seen
such goal-line stands" Tatum
said. He said we had a great
team, one Of the greatest he's
ever seen" And Drew. SO years
old, has been around a long
time.
Somebody mentioned that
Morgan had played his greatest
game at tackle and two of the
Maryland coaches butted in.
His greatest camel" one of
them said. HE played one of
the best games I've ever seen at
tackle. Morgan was terrific, and
how about that Jones and Bill
Walker?"
Fred Heffner, the end who
went through the season know
ing he would be used only as a
pNnting specialist. drew back
