Narrow Victory
Points up Big
Terp Weakness
Shue's Late Basket
Gives Maryland Win
Over Stubborn Hoyos
By Bill Fuchs

The highly-regarded basket
ball teams of Maryland and
George Washington Universities
have th!er work cut out for them
from here on in and Maryland,
particularly, could see it's hopes
come crashing down.
Both teams entertain a similar
long-range ambition-the NCAA
championship. Maryland has
only two regularly scheduled
games neutrality-suspicious. CIV
Tuesday and William and Mary
Thursday--before taking off for
Raleigh and the Atlantic Coast
Conference tournament starting
March 4.
And there are no more soft
touches for the Colonials, either.
They take on Wake Forest at
$3.50 O'Clock tonight at Uline
Arena, and after facing the Terps
must meet North Carolina State
a week from tomorrow and
Georgetown March 2. Then CIV
will play in the Southern Con-
ference tournament at Morgan
town, w. Va, a somewhat easier
task than that facing the Terps.
Seek Playoff Berth.
The winners of these two
tournaments will play for a
berth in an NCAA regional play
off in Philadelphia. The Phila-
delphia winner will advance to
the final playoffs in Kansas City.
Maryland's $3.50 victory over
Georgetown last night at Ritchie
Coliseum again demonstrated
the teams big weakness-it has
only one Gene Shue.
That's true" Coach Bud Mil
likan admits, but we do have a
tremendous unit. When this
team plays as a unit, it can be
hard to beat. Now if we could
play as we'll during an entire
ball game as we did against
Wake Forest during the first
half, we'd be all right. We were
as near to perfect as a team can
be during that first half"
The Terps beat Wake Forest,
74-53. The Deacons, led by
Dickie Hemric, 6-foot-6 scoring
leader in the ACC. have a 1879
record against good opposition.
Terps Inconsistent.
Maryland's trouble is this-no
team can be expected to come
up with one perfect game after
another. That's why the Terps'
first-half play against Wake
Forest stands out.
Wed have to be lucky to- win
the tournament" Millikan says.
You've got to come up with
three consecutive real good
games to win
Looking past the AC tourna-
ment to the more coveted NCAA
title, Millikan says: mo, I don't
think we can play that con-
sistently to 60 all the way"
Maryland was ranked No. IL
