Fist-Swinging Melee After
Seton Hall's Second Loss
Louisville, Ky. () A fist-
swinging melee that sent two
players to hospitals after Louis
ville's 73-67 basketball victory
over Seton Hall Monday night
was credited to "a mistake
among a couple. of players."
The "mistake," - observers
agreed, came dangerously close
to touching off a bad riot. This
was averted when an alert Uni
versity of Louisville band struck
up The Star-Spangled Banner.
Several players already had
been drawn into the fist-swinging
at the end of a elosely con
tested and roughly played
game that saw Seton Hall ab
sorb its second straight loss
after a record string of 27 vic
tories. Harry Brooks, Seton Hall
gusrd who needed several stitch
es to close a lacerated lip, said
the mistake partly was his.
He said Chet Beam of Louis
ville came running at him after
the game "with his hands out
stretched and hit me on the
shoulder."
"I thought he was trying to
hit me so I swung," Brooks re
lated later. "But then Beam
said, 'hell, I don't want to
fight I just wsnt to shake
bands'."
Brooks said he then suffered
