him as one of the highest types of msn
in college athletics" said Adams this

kind of thing he represents in athletics,
is best shown by the fact that he is the
first coach from another college ever IN
vited by any Maryland alumni group TO
attend q function as an honor guest.
I'VE feel that he deserves the recog-
milton and that Georgetown Is very Tor
tunate to have man OF his caliner In
charge Of athletics"
