Junior college All-American Archer was at Baltimore's City Hall as Mayor Clarence "Du" Burns was trying to convince him to attend Maryland . . . "Miss Baltimore" was also with the Mayor . . . Finally, after Burns had exhausted himself, the 6-1 passing wizard, considered the best new Division I point guard prospect in the country, offered the Mayor the final touch by announcing that he had already signed with Coach Wade the day before . . . Archer was at City Hall to receive a key to the city and a mayoral proclamation making it "Rudy Archer Day" ... He also received a resolution from the City Council for the positive image he has presented of the city through his play at Allegany ... He was the most-sought after point guard in the nation, according to Eastern Basketball magazine . . . Howard Garfinkel, the basketball guru who runs the popular Five Star camps said after Archer's signing, "now that gives Maryland the best point guard in the country and the best big man," referring to Archer and Brian Williams, the 6-10 high school All-American from Santa Monica, CA . . . His coming to Maryland is the first by a Baltimorean since Wade, then the Dunbar coach, sent Ernie Graham to the Terps ten years ago . . . Archer had narrowed his choice to Maryland, Ohio State and Nevada-Las Vegas . . . At Southwestern, he was named the team's MVP and was a first team All-Met selection.
