Entwistle Withdrew
The regular captain of the Canterbury men’s basketball team, R. Entwistle, was not included in the team to play I the touring Adelaide Uni- | versity side at Cowles Stadium on Saturday evening [because he had already withdrawn from the training squad. “I had withdrawn from the squad before the team was announced,” Entwistle explained yesterday. Entwistle said he had never expected to be considered for Saturday’s game. He confirmed that he would not be available for Canterbury again this season. Next season he hopes to concentrate a little more on the coaching side of the game, although he will still continue to play seriously. “I intend to put a lot back into basketball,” he said.
