spseioI pispa,eh TO The s,or


CHARLOTTESVILLE. Dec. B.
Gus Tebell, director of athletics
at the University of Virginia. re-
turned home today from a bas-
ketball trip to Nashville and was
startled to learn of the break in
athletic relations with William
and Mary.
President Alvin Chandler of the
Williamsburg school announced
yesterday that it was dropping all
intercollegiate athletics with Vir-
ginia because the Cavaliers
dropped William and Mary from
next falls football schedule.
Tebell termed ridiculous" the
fact that William and Mary was
notified only last Friday that Vir-
ginia would not meet the Indians
in football next season. Accord
ing to the Associated Press, Presi-
dent Chandler said a letter re-
ceived December 5 was William
and Mary's first notice of the
fact that it would not be on
Virginias football schedule for
1858. nor for a period of two to
three years.
Seeks Rotation System.
"We played the other five men,
bers of the Big Six this season for
!, the first time" Tebell said, but
we have been trying for years to
set up a rotation system and play
only three Virginia schools each
year and have the others do the
: same"
, Next year Virginia's tentative
, schedule calls for State games
5 with VMI, VPI and Washington
and Lee. but not Richmond OF
!, William and Mary.
. We've told officials at William
and Mary on a number of occa-
5 sions that we did not intend tt
, play them next year." Tebell said
"They attended the meeting where
we tried to set up the rotation
schedule, and have known it since
! then"
Tebell said one reason William
+ and Mary was omitted from the
! schedule was because he had beer
ordered by the president, Colgate
Darden. jr., and the athletic coun.
Gil, to reduce the schedule from
10 to 9 games. We've beer
i, playing William and Mary on tina
last date Of the season, and. wher
we cut the schedule to nine games
that's the game we omitted" Te'
- bell said.

American Hopes
For Davis Cup
Given Big Boost
Captains Steady PIoy
Brings U. S. First Win
In Tourney Since '37
BY the Associoied Press

" "N SssS~sAiS0 VfOeS
MELBOURNE, Australia, Dec. 8.
Crafty Vic Seixas of Philadel-
Iphia. whose chances were consid-
cred next to nil" stunned this
tennis-mad nation today by whip
ping Frank Sedgman, 8-6, 3-6,
I6-3, Ga. to win the Victorian
championship.
Seixas' brilliant victory, on
court made slick by a weekend
rain, rocketed American hopes in
the Davis Cup challenge round,
set for December 29-31-and
proved to the 5000 fans in Koo-
yong Stadium that Sedgman is
not unbeatable.
| Before the match, Australian
newspaper men had said Seixas'
chances were next to nil" against
the clever Sedgman, holder of the
United States and Wimbledon
championships.
But the Philadelphian, hitting
the very peak of his game, played
a steady, resourceful brand of
tennis to down his curly-haired
opponent.
In becoming the second Ameri-
can to win the title-Don Bulge
did it in 1937-Seixas ended Seig-
mans two-year hold on this
crown. The Aussie ace, in fact,
had not lost a match on Kooyong
court in three years.
But today SeiXas was the mas
| ter.
Maureen Also Takes Title.
The United States Davis Cup
captain shared honors with Maui
reen Connolly. the San Diego
(Calif.) lass who won the women's
crown by defeating Julie Simpson
of San Marlno. Calf, GO, 6-3.
Seixas took advantage of the
slippery footing. He often drove
to a damp patch on the courts
northern end, making the ball
hard to play. At times it bounced
like an over-ripe peach.
In the third set, when he took
the lead for good, Seixas moved
into a 80 advantage with the
help of the wet surface. He chop
ped and sliced the ball and Sedg-
man had difficulty in handling it.,
as it rose unevenly from the moist
surface.
The first set was a see saw af-
fair until SeiXas broke Sedgman' S
serve in the 18th game after the
Aussie netted three times. Then
Vic held his service to take a 10
lead.
In the second set, Sedgman got
hot and ran up a Al lead, break
ing through Seixas in the fourth
game after the American led,
I40-15. They kept their serves and
ISedgman won, 6-3.
Seixas then captured the third
set for a 81 lead with his tricky
Ishotmaking.
Seixas Breaks Through.
In the fourth set, both players
fought hard but unsuccessfully fol
an early service break. The score
went to 3-3 with neither able tt
reach deuce when the other was
serving.
Seixas broke through Sedgmar

The Flying Enterprise, en- route
from Hamburg to New York, ran
into Christmas hurricane and
suffered a deck crack December 81
The passengers and crew, aban-
doned ship December %, but Capt
lCarlsen insisted on staying aboard
Last Saturday the tug Turmoil
out of Falmouth, England, after
getting Mr.. Dancy aboard the
Enterprise, started towing the
Ifreighter toward Falmouth. The
two proceeded perilously at times
but well for the most part, until
the new ocean swells, 20 to Is feet
high, began beating in last night
and today.
When not on deck, Capt. Carl
sen and Mr.. Dancy stayed inside
one Of the deck rooms-using one
wall for a floor and the opposite
wall for a ceiling.
Except for an occasional rain
fsquaH, weather at the scene was
clear and visibility unlimited. This
afternoon the barometer was ris-
ling, the Associated Press staff on
la tug at the scene reported. That
gave hope that the heavy swells
soon would die down.
The Enterprise was about 80
miles from Lizard Head.
It was as if the elements were
determined that Capt. Carlson
would not win his epic battle, now
going on virtually two full weeks.
Wait for Quieter Seas.
The Keith radioed that Capt
Carlson and Mr.. Dancy worked
|frantically to hacksaw away the
main shackle of the snapped tow
line. They finally cleared the
shackle from the chock used tc
secure the tow cable, but said they
would have to wait until the seas
Iquieted down before trying to take
a new line aboard.
This report was timed short
ly after 10 am. Greenwich mean
time Is am, EST. It reached
United States naval headquarters
in London by way Of a British
shore radio station three hours
later.
The Keith said the wind then
was blowing 20 knots, or about %
miles an hour The Turmoil, il
said, "is awaiting wave OF a life

ready signal to approach the bow

1t was necessary for Capt. Carlson

The Cornish coast has claimed
many a ship. One of the most
famous to go around there was
the British battleship Warspite,
She broke her towlines while be-

pounded to pieces by a storm in
April, 1947.
Capt. Carlson. saving his weak
ened radio batteries for emer-
|gency messages, reported to the
Keith only once during the night
At 3 am. he told the destroyer
he had so far been unable to in
spect the frayed tow line "due to

prise"
After a discussion with Capt.
Parker, it was decided to post

was reported to have reaffirmed
solid British support for the
project.
The Prime Minister was to leave
by train at 2 pm. today for New
York before going on to Canada
He plans to return here next
Tuesday afternoon by plane and
probably see Mr.. Truman again
before addressing joint session
of Congress Thursday, January
II. He will leave for London the
last of next week.
Mr.. Eden, who arrived here with
Mr.. Churchill last Saturday, will
remain until Friday for further
talks with Secretary Acheson.
Officials said a primary aim of
the Acheson- Eden talks is to get
American and British policies in
the Middle East and Far East as
closely in line as possible SO as to
prevent crossing each other up
in the future.
1t was emphasized that no basic
policy shifts are to be expected,
however. A major difference now
is in relations with Communist
China. which Britain recognizes
and the United States does not.
It was made clear to the British
that the American non-recogni-
ton .7 policy will not change.
Neither is any immediate shift by
the British seen.
Consideration Of the crises in
Egypt and Iran may bear more
immediate fruit so far as align
ment OF British and American pol
icies are concerned. British dis
putes with Iran over oil nationali-
zation and with Egypt over Egyp-
tian demands for British with
drawal from the Suez Canal and
the Sudan now are deadlocked
1t was recognized at the White
H ouse conferences, informants
said, that the United States and
Britain must see eye-to-eye on
these problems if they ever are
to be solved.
Differences in Views.
On these and other issues, Off
c1als said. there have been differ
ences in view and analysis. But
a clear determination that the
maximum must be done to har-
monize British and American pol
icies developed in the Truman
Churchill talks. it was said.
The guiding principal, an in
formant explained, now is to stick
to what is real" and not let Sec
ondary differences upset relations
between the two countries. One
of the most real things was de-
scribed as the threat of Commu-
mist aggression.
In advance of the conference
there had been some speculation
that Mr.. Churchill might propose
a new effort to get together with
Soviet Premier Stalin-somethine
which Mr.. Truman has frowned
upon.
But no differences developed in
the conferences here on this point,
lnformants said. It was understood
that Mr.. Churchill and Mr.. Tru-
man talked over m one of their
informal meetings away from the
conference table the possibility of
a meeting with Stain, but agreed
that now is not the time to seek
'it.
AS the Prime Minister left the
White House last night, he told
reporters:
"All good wishes for the good
fortune of the American people
and the progress of the great mis-
sion they are discharging, not for
the welfare of themselves or any
other nation. but for all man
kind"
