Jeanette Out
*
AT Georgetown
After FourYear
By BILL FUCHS

Four years after Buddy jean
nette was welcomed with open
arms as a possible cure-all for
one of the most complex college
coaching situations in the coun-
TRY, he is out as basketball
coach at Georgetown Univer-
sity. The ak struck yesterday
and, at Jeannette's own insist
lence, it was with a sharp edge
Georgetown officials were
forced to admit Jeannette's con-
tract was not renewed because
they. did not feel he "had pro-
Iduced teams representative to the
material on hand" In making
the announcement, the Rev
Richard C. Law, faculty moder-
ator of athletics and of alumni
affairs, said he believed jean
nette's full-time job in Balti-
more prevented him from devot-
ling sufficient time to bringing
along individual Hoya perform
ers.
A produce salesman by day,
Jeanette committed from Bal
Itimore to coach at night. Fa-
Their Law said: "a college pro-
lgram demands that coach give
considerable time to his men,
both on and of the practice
court. The situation, with jean
lnette holding what in effect
amounted to two full-time jobs,
Just was not working out for
Ius."
Gets Record Straight
Officials had hoped to escape
the embarrassment of a public
dismissal, but Jeannette's last
lact at McDonough Gymnasium
was to make it clear he was not
leaving Of his own volition. u
would like this straight for the
record" he said. 81 didn't quit.
Jeanette, ex-star and coach
lof the old pro Baltimore Bullets,
succeeded Buddy O'Grady, who
resigned after three seasons.
O'Grady had succeeded Elmer
Ripley in 1949-50 and the future
looked rosy as the result of q
great season by the freshmen
team that year. BIT as varsity
players, the once fabulous fresh
men were indispensable. Jack
Hagerty, graduate manager, Of
athletics. commented at the
time: Zone game they look like
the Harlem Globetrotters and
the next they look like an intra-
mural team"
Jeanette, noted as q fiery
competitor and a miracle-workel
as a coach-he led the Bullets to
a surprising championship in the
Basketball Association of Amer
lea in 1948-was hailed as the
cure for what allied Georgetown
and he was an immediate success
taking his first Hoya team tc

NEW YORK, Mar. R.-
Charles P. Grimes, attorney for
Yves Santee, ace American miller
banned from further track COM
petition for life, asked for an
Injunction today in the State
Supreme Court to prevent the
Amateur Athletic Union from
carrying out its ban.
A hearing was scheduled at 8
pm. before Supreme Court JUS
tice James Mentally.
Santee was suspended by a
special committee of the AAU
February 10 on charges that he
received money in excess of al
lowable expenses for three track
appearances in California last
year.
Santee's attorney said the re-
|straining order was sought on
the following grounds:
/. That the special seven-man
committee which reviewed 9
previous Santee suspension was
without constituted authority.
2. That there was no quorum
present when the special COM
mittee was set up by the AAU.
3. That the AAU's custom OF
permitting $15-a-day expenses
plus transportation was q dead
letter" issue and waived many
times by AAU authorities.
Grimes said Santee planned
to arrive in New York tomor-
row with the idea of running in
the Knights of Columbus Games
Saturday at Madison Square
Garden.
Our request for an injunction
today specifically is for the pur-
pose Of getting Santee eligible
