Hating emric Is Problem
For CIV in Game at UIine's
BY George Huber

George Washington's basket
ball team, fresh from a triumph
over Duquesne in the Steel Bowl
tournament, gets q return crack
against Wake Forest tonight at
Uline Arena.
Game time is 8 pm. with q
junior varsity preliminary at
$50 against George Washington
High School.
Dickie Hemric, the Deacons'
All-America candidate, will be
the big attraction. He had q
hot hand against CIV two weeks
ago when they opened the season
at Wake Forest. contributing IS
points toward his teams 1926
victory.
The 6-foot-6 center. who
weighs 227 pounds. was even
hotter last Saturday with ~
points against Virginia, the best
he ever has scored in one game.
Against Maryland the night be-
fore that. he was limited to IA
points when the Terrapins
guarded him closely and let him
get few shots, but he still is
ahead Of his pace of last
season. when he averaged 24.3
points a game.
Has Variety Of Shots.
Sometimes there's no stopping
him. He's stationed just outside
the foul circle and scores on
either left-handed or right
handed hook shots. tap-ins. lay
ups and Jump shots. About the
only thing he doesn't do is use
outside set shots, mainly because
he never is outside. The Dea-
cons like to have boy Of his size
and ability as close under the
net as the rules allow.
Despite Hemric's heroics,
George Washington has a chance
to reverse things tonight. The
Colonials are q better knit team
than they were on that opening
trip to Wake Forest and bring q
81 record to Uline Arena. They
beat Pitt in the Steel Bowl open
er before taking care of Du-
queSne, 71-64.
Coach Bill Reiphart of CIV
isn't giving away his plans for
guarding Hemric, but his system
doesn't call for putting more
than one man on him. as was
done by Maryland. The Terps
payed so much attention to Hem
ric that they weakened other
areas, allowing such other play
ers as Ernie Virgins and Lefty
Davis to score enough points for
a 62-58 overtime victory.
CIV Looks to Holup, Devlin.
Beside beating Maryland and
CIV, the Deacons have taken
Belmont College and Virginia,
while losing to North Carolina
State, 100-81, for a Al record.
