Hudson, of Business High School,
president of the Interscholastic
Basketball League, is in the hands
Of the members of the league and
is expected to take effect with the
resignation Of the Business man as
physical director in the high schools.
In letter to members of the cir
cult DIR. Hudson has called a meet
ing of the league for tomorrow, at
which time he has asked Frank New
berry, of the Army and Navy Props,
to preside. A change in the sched-
ule is necessary owing to the pure
food exhibit which will take place at
the Arcade next week. With the
changed schedule came the announce
ment of DR.. Hudson's retirement
from his post at Business High
School and his resignation as head
of the schoolboy league.
The Business High School coach Is
leaving the public schools to practice
medicine and will give up his duties at
the school and as coach CT the Busi-
ness basketball team OH the first OF
the month. 1t Is expected that Paul
White, successful coach of the Bust
ness football and baseball teams. will
take over the coaching job of basket
ball.
1t is not improbable that the Inter-
scholastic Basketball League will re-
fuse to accept DR.. Hudson's reslgna-
tion as head of the circuit. II is known
t.. l.,
among league members and it may be
that Dr. Hudson can he prevailed upon
TO remain. The Business High coach has
been prominently identified with Rth-
letics in the District for number OF
years. He has come to be known as
the father of schoolboy basketball here
as he founded and kept going the In
Lerschol9stic circuit during the past six
years.
Basketball in scholastic ranks has
been placed on high plane owing to
the influence OF DIR. Hudson. 1t is iE-
timated that his interest will be con-
tinued and that his spare time will be
devoted to the sport.
