NEW RULES LW BASKE7RALL
 MAKE NO DRASTIC CHANGES
Most of Them Are for Pur- !. poses of ,Clarification--
 Steps Taken to Speed Up
 Amateur Play.
By The Associated Prsss.

By The Ahsociated Pren.
 New York. Dec. 5--College basket ball players. starting the season in earnest in another week, will find few changes In the rules, most of the new clauses being added for pur- poses of clarification.
 Definite steps to speed up the amateur game have been taken how ever, and an effort appears to have been made to eliminate some of the whistle blowing that has always in- terrupted the game at frequent in- tervals.
 Referees have been condemned by the crowds when they proved 10 be adept foul locaters and this, together with the constant tossing of the ball after 1t has been gripped by two opponents, has tended to take away from the public the continuity Of play to which 1t is accustomed In other large sports.
 The joint rules committee has de- cided that hereafter a "break" shall be called only when the ball is gripped firmly by two opposing play CTS. Another change is that for a limit oftwenty second on a double foul shot, where hitherto team has found time to rest between tries. Moreover the man fouled must make the try for the point, instead Of de- pending on the teams star foul-tos- scr.
 Two men, rather than one, here after will be on the lookout for ille- gal play, as the umptre's duties have been augmented and 1t will be his powers to call fouls when the referees back is turned. Among the other changes are: Timekeepers may walk on the floor 10 stop contest If their sig nals are NOT heard.
 Substitutes must play when enter ing the game, Under former rules a player might leave the surface to receive a coach's instructions and return before play was resumed. : If a player changes his number during the game he must report 1t both to the referee and scorer in or der that personal fouls may be charged in the proper quarter. If a foul is called while player is trying for goal from the field the ball is dead unless it be in the i air.
 No matter how many men enter the game at the same time and fail | to report only one foul shot will be allowed the opposing team.

Well after Grange had made his first run for a touchdown, ] in- stinctively looked at Yost, wonder ing what he would gay" said Blott. Not word came from his lips, He sucked in about an inch of the black cigar that he was chewing. He also seemed to have trouble swallowing that appeared to stick in l his throat.
 The second time that Grange crossed the line, Tost verbally dashed ithrre players whom he believed should have stopped Grange. He 1 was peeved,
 'IIe hardly had lime .o replace the woll-chewed cigar with a fresh one when Grange started to run wild again. What would his emo. tlons be this time?
 AS Grange cleared the last Michi, gan player, Yost started to laugh a, he does when some one tells a funny story. There was no bunk about it real laughter.

LoVejOy Of Yale Also Measures

(By Billy Evans)

Who will be rated the best foot ball center for 1924?
 Yale offers Lovejoy, the Army presents the great Garbisch, Calfor- nia has Babe" Horrell, Notre Dame Adam Walsh.
 Recently in selecting an All- Big Ten team l nominated Brown of Michigan as the best center in the Western Conference.
 Browns play had impressed mo most fayorably. In addition l had the word Of most Of tho Big Ten coaches that he was the outstanding player at that position.
 Recently l had a couple hours chat with Jack Blott, famous Michi- gan center, universally selected last year for that position on the ex- ports' All-American teams.
 During the fall Blott assisted Coaches Yost and Little at Michigan. Last summer he was a member of the Cincinnati Reds, for Jack was the star catcher as well as crack center at Michigan.
 What about this fellow Brown 2" asked him.
New Britain herald., 1924-12-05

In order to appreciate Yosts ac- lions, one must remember that the Illinois game was probably the one battle that Yost wanted to win.
 The year previous Michigan and Illinois had tied for the title. The fact that Yost had spent many hours drilling his athletes to stop Grange must also be taken into considera- ton.
New Britain herald., 1924-12-05

"He was still doing 1t when Grange started his fourth dash for touchdown. Whats more he kept on smiling even though it hurt" concluded Rlott.
New Britain herald., 1924-12-05

Fielding Yost, director Of ath :. letics at Michigan, is one of the games greatest characters. Just the type of man to be at the head of athletics at a big institution like Michigan.
 Yost believes in making men as well as athletes out of the boys who come out for the competitive sports at Michigan. What is more, he does it.
 Yost has keen sense of humor While he loves 10 win, he is able to see the opposition's worth in defeat. He never offers any alibis for Michi- Gau's failures.
 Knowing Yost as I do, have often wondered how he acted while Grange was making the now famous four runs for touchdowns against Michigan in the opening period of the Illinois game. l asked Blott as to Yost's emotions as Grange was doing the super-man stuff. It so happened that Blott was sitting close by.
New Britain herald., 1924-12-05

Hes the greatest center In the country. The experts were kind enough to rate both Wick and myself Al-America at that position. They are going to kick one if they don't give Brown a similar rating. Hes better than either one of us," wa. Blotts decidedly modest reply. So much for Brown.

STATES CROPS
y ARE LIGHTER
Estimates are for Not More
= Than Half Crop of APP
piles and Wheat

The June 1st crop report for Wash
ington states that the winter wheat
and spring wheat crops were in very
poor condition on that date and with
the total wheat acreage eight per
cent less than last year, the indicated
production is approximately one-half
as large as the record wheat crop of
1923. Paintings of oats and barley
are larger than one year ago, but the
comparatively poor condition of these
two crops on June 1 forecasts some
what smaller production than In 1923.
The report as released by G. S. Ray
of the Federal Division of Crop and
Livestock Estimates, further states
that the condition of the apple crop
indicated slightly more than one-half
full crop, pears were expected to be
slightly less than one-half a crop.
while peaches gave promise of about
one-third of full crop on June L.
The spring drought in Washington
continued throughout May, and up to
June l this spring was the driest on
record for practically all sections of
the state. Except where irrigated,
crops generally deteriorated to a
marked degree during the past month
and on June this year crop condi-
lions probably averaged much lower
than for great many seasons. The
condition figures in this report are
as of June L. Since that date show
ers have fallen in many places in the
state.
Winter wheat dropped % points
in condition during May and on June
/ averaged but So per cent of normal.
This condition forecasts a production
of 20,606,000 bushels as compared to
37015,000 bushels grown last year
and 25,645,000 bushels, the average
production for the five years, 1913
%.
With 100000 acres of spring
wheat I'll per cent less than last
year, and with the crop averaging
but 81 per cent of normal on June
1, the forecast for the spring wheat
crop is 9,690,O00 bushels. In 1923
the spring wheat crop was 24,72S,-
600 bushels while the average for the
five years, 1892, was 14,972 900
bushels.
All wheat. June 1 conditions indi-
Gated crop of 30,296. 900 bushels
as compared with 61,743,00O bushels
in 1923, 32,1O4,00 BUSHES in 1922,
IS, 245, 900 bushels in 1921, Al ,665 900
bushels in 1920, Al 1888, 900 bushels in
1919 and 29,187, 900 bushels in 1918.
Peaches. The low temperature in
January together with hard freezes
in April seriously reduced the peach
crop. On June i it gave promise of
amounting to 405, 900 bushels $50 per
cent of full crop) as compared with
,333, 900 bushels in 1928.
Apples and pears We're injured to
quite an extent by the April freezes.
Apples on June ! gave promise of 55
per cent of full crop while pears
promised As per cent of full produc-
ton. No forecast of production for
these crops will be made until in the
July report. The June condition
figures for the commercial apple crop
in important states are as follows:
Maine IS per cent, New York ~,
Pennsylvania 80, Maryland 3d. Vir-
ginia 80, West Virginia 70, Ohio 80,
