try in the Class A eliminations
but couldn’t quite make it.
In the eighteen yeai' history
of the National Invitational
Basketball Tournament, Catholic
colleges have won the title eight
times. With several representa
tive teams already invited this
year, they could make it nine
wins. Look for San Francisco,
Dayton, Marquette, St. Francis
of Brooklyn, Xavier of Ohio,
Holy Cross and one or two oth
er schools to do well in this event
or in the NCAA tourney.

year Belmont went into triple
figures. The Crusaders appear
to have adopted the coliseum as
their own for in their other two
appearances there, they defeat
ed Erskine and the University
of Richmond Spiders. It would
be nice for the Georgia follow
ers of the team if Belmont could
arrange to schedule more games
in this state’ especially if they
could work out a doubleheader
in the Georgia Tech gym now
being erected. In their only
showing in this state this year,
the Abbey team ran head on into
Georgia State Teachers College
and All-American Chester Webb.
On their own court, the Teachers
can really teach.

wound up the season as individu
