Maryland as the area Big Three

this season might be interpreted
as meaning the best of a losing

Maryland has lost all four

victory in four tries and CIV
has dropped two since winning
its opener against william g.
Mary.
Until a 74-73 loss at Virginia
Military two nights ago, CIV
was regarded the Big Three
member holding the best chance
to field a winner. 1t wasn't so
much the Colonials' victory over
william & Mary as the manner
in which they lost at Cincinnati
last Saturday which was re-
sponsible for perking up this
notion.

Both organizations studied
the Presidents words carefully

Byers claimed the AAU had
rejected the agreement reached

"The rejection Of these prin-

the AAU has repudiated the

Hull also repeated the AAU'i

ports represent items which do
