Bob Anderson, Thomas Giles, Dave Cowley, Frank Fillman, Rick Heflin, Roger Bort, john Ferguson, jeff Synan. ST. JOHN'S 42-0 The Cadets marched off with DuVal's biggest upset of the season. DuVal's big- gest threat came in the second quarter at St. john's 12 when Tiger Frank Fillman carried 41 and 23 yards as the Tigers moved from their own 21 yard line. Their defense held up to zero scoreage while our offense rallied end- lessly to hold the powerful Cadets in a hopeless battle. OXON HILL 25-12 This was the Clippers first win over the Mighty Tigers since 1961. They built a lead of 19-0 at the end of the second period while DuValians watched with hopes of victory as our Frank Fillman ran 65 yards for one of DuVal's touch- downs, and passing 57 yards to Wayne Schmidt for the other. This was the Tiger's second loss in league play with their fourth setback in five games-but DuValians knew our Mighty Tigers would give extra effort in the next, all important Northwestern game. NORIHWESTERN 33-6 Our Tigers just didn't have enough of steam as the Northwestern Wild- cats ran five touchdowns with extra points to overcome the Tigers in their second upset of the season. After an attempted Wildcat inter- ception, Wayne Schmidt proves true with .the Tiger's ball on the 20 yard line. On the next play, Wayne again performs in the Tiger tra- dition for our only touchdown of the game. 4 9? ri. - , 4 '-fi t fsf. 4 o- jeff Synan gains yardage against North western. 243 ti-1
