There have been tennis
playing buns and bum tennis
players. But Buddy Adair is
one of the few who have gone
to the dogs, and quite sue
cessfully.
Built more like a football
tackle than recquet swinger,
Buddy and partner Dave Lewis
are No. 2 on the current list
of Mid-Atlantic doubles rank
ings. In the Pug division Of
dogdom Buddy ranks higher
thanks to such animals as
Sabbaday, Midas, Paule tie,
Champion Aliens Tom Thumb
and Pugtown Circus Clown.
They've brought a distinctly
blue background to the den in
Buddy's comfortable home in
Gaithersburg.
"Pugs were popular when dad
was a boy" Buddy said, "but
their popularity dwindled and
they all but dropped out of the
picture. Now they're tenth in
the country and still gaining"
Buddy's dad, Chet Adair, a
reformed athlete-hockey, foot
ball, etc. lends a helping
hand with the animals, and it
keeps both busy. Buddy is on
the board of directors of the
Pug Dog Clubs of America and
is show chairman Of the Pug
Dog Clubs of America. 1t keeps
him occupied during the fall
and winter and brings a tenn
porary halt to his tennis. But
& it works out fine, as Pugs can't
be exhibited during the spring
and summer because their
muzzles perspire too freely.
That's when Buddy turns to
tennis.
Its expensive" Buddy says.
He could have meant both dogs
and tennis, but in this case it
was the Pugs. "They get a
half-pound of hamburger daily,
plus dog food, wheat germ and
Vitamin A for the eyes,"
That's better than some
humans fare.
Pugs are distinguished by a
curley-que tail, short, COLBY
face, wide chest and usually
fawn color.
They make wonderful house
pets" Buddy said. They're
not noisey-although they'll LEI

Georgetown's basketball team
might be excused for looking
past tomorrow's game with
Fairleigh-Dickinson to Satur-
days bout with Fordham, but
it won't be if it loses.
While seasons records indi-
cate the Hoyas can handle
Fairleigh-Dickinson wit ou t
taking off their warmup jack
cts, they must put on a good
performance in New York Sat-
urday if they are to attract
the attention of a post-season
tournament committee.
Georgetown embarks tomor-
row on its three-day invasion
of the north, planning to ar
rive in Rutherford, N. j., in
time for the game. The team
will leave Immediately after

York.
While Fairleigh Dickinson,

But it is a good basketball
team which will be called on
in the next two weeks to show

these two battles, the Hoyas

Checkan Gets Chance
Halberstadt, last years lead
ing scorer in the conference,
pumped in 48 points in his two
turns against CIV this season
and currently ranks eighth
with an 1875 average.
GW's Jon Feldman is the
conferences No. 8 scorer at the

brother Jeff or Mike Heron.
Joe Adamitis, '6-8. and Gar

Much of Georgetown's defen-

Marty Dozdenovich and Ray
Fox, who sometimes look like

Louis F. (Weenie) Miller has
five basketball players at Vir-
ginia Military who are taking
pre-med, three studying engi-
neering, two majoring in math,
one in English and another in
chemistry. But Coach Miller of
late has been conducting a
cram course in philosophy.
The Keydets must attain a
philosophical outlook, he fig
ures, if they are going to rescue
anything close to a winning
season. The game with George
Washington tonight in Lexing-
ton serves as the first exam
ination, and they had better
not funk.
VMI rests in seventh place
in the Southern Conference
with three victories and five
losses, and has won four of II
games altogether. These mod
est achievements were per-
formed with Bill Blair in the
lineup. Blair is there no longer.
Has Dislocated Finger
Sometime in the Is days since
the 74-71 decision over William
and Mary, the prize, 6-foot-3
sophomore suffered a COM
pound dislocation of the index
finger on his left hand. VMI
will have to do without its

all.
1--WE all hate it but it's hap
pened and we're not going to
NOPE around about it," Vicente
has said. Were going to take
up the slack and finish strong
without him."
While Miller tries to per-
petrate a philosophical BRAIN
wash on his Keydets, the
memory of Blair remains strong
in the minds of the CIV team.
When VMI surprised George
Washington, 1857, in the Rich
mond Invitational Tournament
late last month, Blair led all
scorers with % points, he fouled
out with 1857 remaining, with
just eight points. Clearly, the
