BUFFALO, N.

that the team would be abandoned unless it showed rapid improvement. There were few protestants of the move among the pathetic gathering of 1847 fans who huddled together for comfort in the eerie vacancy of the Boston Garden last night as the Celtics dropped a 81-76 decision to- the Baltimore Bullets.

Celtics Worst Showing

“That's the worst showing any! Celtic team has put on and that goes as far back as four years ago when we first started” Brown sald disgustedly after watching the game. “We can't expect to draw“anyone unless we win. After that exhibition they put on we can't 'istand it much longer.” Rumors that the Celtics were planning to. fold circulated in National Basketball Association circles earlier this week but were denied by the management. They gained new impetus after last night's fiasco which gave he Celtics undisputed possession of the league cellar. They have won only one game this year.
