BULLETIN
The University of Detroit athletic board at a meeting
last night voted unanimously to back Coach Harding.
DETROIT (A' -- The University of Detroit's entire varsity
basketball team - three white and 13 black players -- have
announced that they will no longer play under Coach Jim
Harding.
In a letter to Father Malcolm J. Carron, S.J., the univer-
sity president, the players charged that Harding's "failure to
recognize us as human beings with human feelings, wants and
Sdesires has driven us to the point of psychological depres-
sion.
As long as Harding is coach, the players said, they will
not remain on the team. _____________
Informed of ths players' state-
ment, Harding said: "Thsn they
won't remain on the team long. I
am the head basketball coach and
will be for the next three years.''
Harding has taken a hard line
towards his squad's revolt, which
began when the 13 black players
boycotted practice Monday over
the suspension of two fellow-
players. At the time, Harding re-
fused to divulge his reasons f o r
suspending Gerald Smith and Ian
Agee.
A delegation of 25 players, in-
cluding .several members of t h e
freshman team, met with Father
Carron Wednesday to discuss their
grievances with Harding, but the
'president said no decision except
to Harding himself.epaer ak

Harding, who coached the Min-'
Basketbal Association befor cm

is known as a strict disciplinar-'

volt over "extremely severe" prac-
tice sessions. |

In their statement, the players
referred to that revolt, saying that
"Lhe problems. which drove us
niearly to the brink last year still
prevail."
They said "everyone of us lives
and wants to play," basketball, but
