Sports Brief NEW YORK, Oct. 21 (AP) The way Ned Irish looks at it, the entries for this year's fall basketball tournament at Madi son Square garden three serv ice teams and one aircraft cor poration may represent a "trend." . . . And it'a a good bet that b.e's right. Most of the coaches partaking of Ned's free groceries yesterday were wondering if they'll havo teams left by the time the season rolls around . . . Artie Musi cant, who turns out big-time teams at Brooklyn college, re marked that he's letting his varsity five take care of itself and devoting most of his time to the Jayvecs so he'll have re placements ready when the boys start marching off to war . . . Which brings to mind that one of the marines now fighting on Guadalcanal Island is Wcs Ben nett, the former Westminster college sharpshooter . . . And you couldn't ask for a better guy to toss bombs into fox holes.
