But they have been coming in here late

The purpose is to encourage de-

With Maryland owning the
Nations newest indoor stadium,
1904 individual seats with

ton and four radio stations from
Kentucky will broadcast the
game, with Ray Michael han-
ding the play-by-play for WRC
starting at 3 o'clock.
Seats Still Available
In a 6:l5 preliminary, possibly
the best Maryland freshman
team in many years will meet
Roslyn On. Y.) ALB. which has
Don Moran, an ex-Terp, as its
player-coach.
Maryland is hoping for q
CAPACITY crowd, but seats still are
on sale at College Park and the
usual ticket locations, and UNI
doubtedly will be available at
game time.
The feature attraction matches
youthful Bud Millikan, with five
years experience as head coach
at Maryland, against the fiery
Adolph Rupp, a demonstrative
veteran of rs years as head coach
of the Wildcats. Rupp's teams
have averaged just short of vim

The fact that Kentucky has q
defeat in its first three games
comes as a major surprise, par.
ticularly in view that the loss
was suffered at Louisville. Ken

last year, and prior to that had
won 129 straight on its home
