Believing that Spaulding's varsity
team would have defeated the Norwich
freshmen team had the five men been
\ in the best OF condition, Coach Robert
| Ross laid down a rule Monday to the
members of the basketball squad where
/ bv a member of the school team can
mot take part in games other than
school games during the scheduled sea
son. If any player decides to join the
ranks of another team his suit must
be turned il at once to Mr. Ross, 50
that substitute may be developed
without delay. This means. of course,
| that the player turning Ibis suit VIII
be severed from the lineup for the re-
mainder Of the season. The action
came. as already stated, from the game
with the Norwich freshmen, two of the
| Spaulding players having played IN a
hard game with an independent team
the night previous.
