Furthermore. it seems improba-
BILE that Maryland's zone de-
fense will check the fast-cutting
offensive used by the Hoyas.
Freddy Mesmer, Hoya coach, fol-
lows the Elmer Ripley system,
which is patterned along the pro-
fessional variety. That means
slow passing from one to another
in an attempt to outposition the
opponents and, when an opening
is afforded, to have a man break
fast for the basket. take a pass
and shoot without a seconds
hesitation.
Time Is Barrier
And despite Coach Shipley's
aims to switch his defensive
methods. time apparently will
cheat him of his aims. 1t is far
too late to convert his players
from a system to which they
have been accustomed al season
long, many of them for several
years. One doesn't change horses
in mid-stream, but at that Ship
lev might decide to let his team
try the man-to-man defense

down, and therein, I think, lies
the secret to his vote he re-
ceived from the officials.
1t was largely a battle Of left
hands, with Furr starting slowly
and instead of taking victory as
a matter of course, as he has
been known to do to his dis
may, stuck to his knitting and
got under the wire with the nod.
The victory means a new lease
on F'urr's fistic life hereaboutS,
but before he shows around
here again, he expects to do a
little touring with his CONAN
ager, Chris Dundee.
Crowd Not in Accord
Roddy Davis out-lashed Roy
Manley in the unanimous opin-
ion of the triumverate which
passes on such matters, but as
in the Furr decision, there was
some doubt in the minds of
many as to the justice of that
decision. When fights are that
close it is a healthy indication
that fireworks were not lacking.
The Manley-Roddy Davis go
was so well contested, that
Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn was

Jackie Davis, the ninth rank

have forgotten the important
item of letting Phil in on the
idea.
Davis is a coming-in type of
