Weary Terps
To Seek No. 5
Over Hoyas
By MERRELL WHITTLESEY
Star Stan Writer

Maryland's basketball team
finally made it back from Min
neSota last night, weary but
happy oyer its rather unex-
pected early-season successes.
The unbeaten Terps suddenly
find themselves in the 18th
position in the first Associated
Press basketball poll. At the
moment they are the most
talked-about team in the At
lantic Coast Conference.
The conference race suppos-
edly was to be a four-way scrap
among North Cardinals Big
-Four, with Maryland the best
Of the second-divisioh teams.
But on the basis of their VIC
tories over Penn State, Virginia,
George Washington and Min
nesota, the Terps are command
ing more respect.
Point for Classic
Maryland now has an excel
lent chance Of taking an un-
beaten record into the Dixie
Classic December 1881 at Ra-
leigh, N. c., where the Terps
meet North Carolina in the first
round. Villanova, Marquette,
Wyoming and Maryland are the
outside teams against the Tar
Heels, Duke. N. C. State and
Wake Forest.
The Terps' next date is to-
morrow night at Georgetown,
one Of three games tomorrow
for the area teams, in addition
to American University's par
ticipation in the Quantico
tournament.
George Washington figures to
keep its Southern Conference
record clean against william
and Mary in the Colonials' first
game on Uline's new floor. And
Navy will be out to snap a
three-game losing streak when
it plays Gettysburg at $3.50 at
Annapolis.
The only game scheduled
last night. Catholic U. at Mt.
st. Mary's. was rescheduled for
January 81 at Emmjtsburg. The
roads to Emmitsburg were too
risky.
There was no snow in Min
neapolis, where Maryland beat
