Sporting Editor of The Times:
After reading the newspaper ac-
counts of the basketball games $50

between the Y. NJ. c. \. and Carroll
Institute teams, I wish 10 let the pub
lie know that such scenes are not
necessary. but absolutely against the
basketball and the Amateur Ath-
letic Union rules. under which both
teams are supposed TO play.
If the officials i'm charge know the
rules there is a remedy provided. and
each man should pe punished; in fact.
IL isftompulsory upon the referee and
umpires to impose the penalties, which
would have been ordering the men in
volved from the game and reporting
the case to the chairman Of the regis
tration committee of the South At
lantic Association.

F. M. Collins Sees DANCER in Reversing Re-
suits on Protest by Losers-Captan
SChlOSser Gives Y NJ c. A. Version

from the few games played so far the
interest by both player and spectator
has been very encouraging, and the
winters sport promises TO be both a
very close race and a prosperous event
1t seems. therefore, 10 those who
look I'm from the outside that the board
has made a mistake which IL should
correct. There was only one point for
the board 10 decide. viz. Are We TO
back up the referee in his work and
give the sport a firm footing, or are we
TO throw him down and kill it2 It
seems that they should uphold the
referee in his work unless ne inten-
tionally and deliberately throws a game,
but in no case reverse mis- decisions upon
the Sayso of the players. who should
not have any voice in the meetings OF
the board In any event, where doubt
existed as to the awarding of a game
Ii should be thrown out and new
game played-a much better and fairer
way than giving 1t to one team over
the other.
Let US therefore have no more OF
this dissatisfaction among the various
clements OF the league, let US uphold
the referee in his work, the only way
to preserve the sport and keep 1t on
sound footing
