come fewer times during the
week.
Basket shooting, guarding foul
shooting and working out signals
make up the backbone of the
practice period.
Warm up for a few minutes I'M
der the basket. Then have each
man take turn at the basket.
This kind of work develops men
fast and puts the team into the
spirit of offensive play.
A great deal of care must be
given to close guarding. Close
guarding keeps the score down
but it goes a long way towards
winning the game. To guard eff
fectively get the body as near to
the opponent as possible, which
makes it harder for the man with
the ball to pass accurately.
Do not attempt foul guarding,
holding or tripping in game. 1t
is often possible in the excite
ment of the game when several
players are massed to put some
thing over" on the officials, but in
the long run it does not pay. In
the first place it is unsportsman-
like, and il there is anything q
sport like basketball should teach
it is sportsmanlike conduct in a
game.
Then one foul may lose a game.
If it is detected the other fellow
may get the one point which will
in the end determine the score.
A good goal shooter is a great
asset to any team. Often a foul
wins a game. Take at least 20
shots apiece from the foul line.
AS soon as the most accurate
player is found have him practice
daily on goal shooting. AS soon
as he can put in 20 in succession
without a slip he can be classed a
top-notcher.

President Ball Of the bdg league
club to make a deal whereby Wal
ter McCredie of the Salt Lake
team will get his services during
1918.
Ball offered Williams con-
tract with an advance of $75 per
month over the figures he had on
his Portland contract last season.
That boost was not satisfactory
to Williams, and, as Dunn an
nounced that the contract offered
the outfielder contained the best
terms he could make, Williams is
not keen to play big league ball
