BECKETT REQUESTS
ADVISERS TO SET
LIMIT FOR GAMES

Action by the faculty advisers Il
asked in setting the time limit OF the
halves in basketball games now being
played in the High School League. c.
Edward Beckett. OF the Y. NJ. c. A..
who Ii also one OF the officials for the
circuit Is putting the question UP to
the athletic authorities.
The rules call for eight-minute
periods and siXteen-miuute halves for
secondary schools. Some of the games
to date have been played with twenty
minute halves and others with sixteen
minute halves. Still another game
went on with seven-minute quarters
On account OF the failure of the teams
to take the floor on scheduled time.
1t has been pointed out that the
Y. NJ. e. A. floor is unusually long for
court work by schoolboys and that on
this account the games consist OF con-
slderably more running than basket
shooting. The actual floor length is
ninety feet while the regulation
calls for from fifty to seventy.
Prof. Beckett Is supported in the
contention that ten-minute quarters
are a bit too long by at least two OF
the high school coaches. Faculty ad-
vtsers may act on the matter later. In
football the rules call for quarters of
not more than ten minutes, while in
basketball there has been no stipula-
ton
