Bullets Plan Continuance of Policy
The Baltimore Bullets will continue their coach policy for at least another season after Paul Seymour resigned Monday. The 38 year old said family and business obligations in Syracuse come first. Owners want a decision before the May draft but won’t rush. Seymour may assist in the draft after playoffs. The Bullets trail the Hawks 2-0 in the Western Division semifinals with next game in St. Louis Wednesday. The split with owners including Arnold Heft was amicable after a season of a 38-42 record, their best since moving here in 1963-64.
