before being huunbled in the final,
$40 to 553.

cellar on total pins over Lucky

have to win two or three more than

Small Is Big Surprise
As CoIoniaIs Smear
Navy Cage Slate

Len Small, a 6-foot-1 basket ball
sub from Brooklyn VINO had been
plugging along with three or four
points a game for George Wash
ington, earned a starting role
against Maryland tomorrow night
by his 17-point spree that helped
beat Navy yesterday 43-38.
Coach Art Zahn's Colonials got
their seventh victory in eight starts
against the previously unbeaten
Middles, but as Zahn said today,
Navy was step up In opposition.
The only other top-fight team the
Colonials had played was unde-
feated Seton Hall, which Zahn's
team outscored from the floor, but
lost the game on the foul line.
Small pulled the Colonials out of
a first half deficit with four con-
secutive baskets, and it was pri-
marily through the work of the
freshman guard that G.. w. held a
27-20 halftime lead. The second
half was all George Washington as
Navy pulled up only by scoring the
last five points of the game.
Zahn hurried back from Annapolis
to scout Maryland against Rich
mond last night and he admitted he
didn't see anything to make him
think his team would not open its
Southern Conference campaign with
a victory
BY meeting Navy on Wednesday,
Maryland Friday and Georgetown
next Monday at Uline, the Colonials
make one big bid for top honors in
this section.
