Cox apparently had earned a slight
margin, staggering Somerville in the
second round. but Brockman vi
stoned it the other way, much to the
disgust of Maryland supporters.
Marylands chances seemingly
faded when Ken Rathbun, Virginia
light heavyweight, outpointed his
former buddy at Baltimore Poly,
Josh Hughes. Hughes wearied in
the third round after matching
Rathbun blow for blow in the sec
ond session.
That gave Virginia a 4-3 lead and

Maryland Five Starts Badly.
Maryland attempted to make
gift of the basket ball game to
Hopkins, missing a continuous sue
cession of shots to such an ex-
tent the spectators howled at their
amazing inability in failing to con-
meet.
Hopkins. though, was unable to
fathom Maryland's zone defense to
any appreciable degree during that
first half and the Terps forged
ahead after being tied at 8-8 to
snatch a 17-12 half-time lead.
Merle DuVall had kept MARYLAND
in the game until that point, but
it was then that George Dewitt,
the lanky Western High product.
grasped the reins for the Terps
and piloted them to triumph with
one of the most spectacular brands
of shooting ever witnessed here.
De witt. who scored only one field
goal in the first half, located the
net for nine more in the second
half. Seven of these came in Sue
cession for Maryland as he staged
private duel with Hopkins Irving
Tannenbaum, who scored two foul
shots and five field goals in sue
cession for the Baltimore quint.
Dewitt scored 20 points for the
Terps and Tannenbaum registered
13 for Hopkins.
Terps' Spurt Decides.
Maryland spurted into 25-12 lead
Immediately after the opening of
the second half, but it was then that
Lee Moore, Hopkins center, put his
team back in the running with three
successive field goals and a foul
shot, reducing Maryland's margin to
1924 before he was forced to leave
the game via the foul route.
De Witt and Tannenbaum went
into action at that juncture and pro-
vided spectators with an amazing
shooting exhibition. Tannenbaum
matched De Witt goal for goal down
the stretch to keep Hopkins within
a 7-point reach of Maryland until
the last two minutes. Then De Witt,
Woodward and Duvall Gagged field
goals to present the Terps their
final margin.
