Hoyas Score,
S2-73, Over
kuh|enberg
BY LEWIS r. ATCHISON
star staff Writer

Georgetown's hot and cold
basketball team got hot Just
often enough to hand Mullen
berg an 82-73 defeat last night
before 1000 fans at McDon-
ough Gym,
1t was the Hoyas' first vic
tory in almost a month. ending
a four-game losing streak.
| Trailing. 1894, at the half,
the Mules battled back in the
second half an dshocked their
hosts by forging ahead. 67-66.
But 1t wasn't enough, and with
Puddy Sheehan sparkling a
counterattack, G georgetown n
pulled away.
Sheehan's 20 points led
Georgetown's scoring. He also
manufactured the games most
exciting play. stealing the ball
to set UP a field goal by Jim
Carrino.
Jack Superka was high for
the Pennsylvanians with 18
points, but the Mules lost him,
as well as Chris Hiotis--who
contributed II -points-on per-
sonal}fouls in the last period.
Georgetown, which hadn't
won a game since beating
Louisiana Tech at Shreveport
late last month. was at its best
when Tom roleman. Carrino,
Sheehan, Paul Tagliabue and
Tom Matan were on the floor.
Coleman and Tagliabue did
yeoman work under the back
boards and the group seemed
to have more fire and zest than
any other GU combination.
It was Muhlenberg's fourth
straight defeat, giving at a 2-l2
record for the season.
Ron Hossman, Superka and
George GilfaIlon clicked in sue
cession to give Muhlenberg the
lead for the first time with
about eight minutes to play.
But with Druckenmiller already
on the sideline, and Hiotis soon
to follow, the Mules couldn't
hold the advantage.
In the preliminary, Balm
bridge Naval Training Station
defeated the Georgetow n
Freshmen, 91-82.
Frank Prestleo's sharpshoot-
ing, plus the ball hawking of
Dave Wickham. who grabbed
25 rebounds for cambridge. was
too much for the GU Frosh.

Although snow still covered

Riders Blocked
On Dropping
Appeal

In a surprise move that may
spell out future prosecution
strategy in freedom rider"
trials, the state Wednesday
blocked convicted riders from
dropping appeals filed in CO.
unity court.
In effect, a ruling by Coun-
ty Judge Russell Moore fore
es defendants in the rider
cases to stand trial in his
court or plead guilty to the
breach of peace charges a.
gainSt them.
The ruling wa. made in
Judge Moore's chambers We'd
nesday Afternoon when Alex
ander Nathan Anderson, So
year old Negro minister of
Nashville, attempted to with
draw his appeal.
City prosecutor Jack Travis
objected to a motion to with
draw and Judge Moore over
ruled the motion on grounds
that the state Supreme Court
has held cases similar to this
are being tried on the same
grounds as in the city court
and charges can not be dis
missed.
If this ruling is applied to
some 100 cases still on the
docket it will greatly inter
fere with plea by the Con-
gress of Racial Equality for
freedom riders to give up
on appeals and serve out their
original Jail terms.
Following Judge Moore's
ruling Anderson was tried and
convicted with the state call
ing two witnesses and the de
tense resting its case with only
cross examinations. Anderson
received the same sentence
imposed on other convicted
riders" - four months in
jail and a 5000 fine. He is ex-
pected to be released after
posting a 81, 500 appeal bond.
Earlier a white freedom
rider, Zev Aelony, % of Palo
Alto, Calf, was tried on SIM
liar charges and convicted.
