RULES EXPLAINED
At Big MEETING
Nixon, TObin and Avery, Central
Officials, Hold Busy Session

Leonard Nixon, Nathan Avery and
John Tobin, representing tho Con-
trail Connecticut Board OF Approved
Basketball officials we're the main
targets for hundreds OF questions
concerning the changes in the bas-
ketball rules at the meeting called
for that purpose last night In the
Y. NJ. c. A. building, About rs in
terested basketball fans were pres
ent, the weather probably keeping
as many more away.
Joseph Hergstrom, physical d.
rector, opened the meeting by in
PRODUCING the three officials OF the
board and he turned the session
over to Leonard Nixon, secretary of
the local board. Mr.. Nixon gave a
general outline Of the work which
has been accom- ?ished by the board
during the past two or three years
and explained the purposes and aims
of the organization.
He was followed by John Z. Tobin
who gave an excellent talk on the
violation OF rules. Mr.. Tobin Is one
of the most efficient basketball
referees In these parts and his
knowledge of the rules and regula-
lions of the game Is very complete.
He took the rules as laid down in
the rule book and explained each In
a clear and concise manner.
Nathan Avery then took up the
discussion and explained the per-
sonal fouls. This has been a
stumbling block for many players
and Mr.. Averys explanation of how
they are committed, settled many
differences of opinions among those
present.
The trio was then bombarded with
questions on all angles of the game.
The rules and technical fouls prov
ed to be the points on which most
OF those present were hazy.
Following the meeting, two teams
from p e. +. Corbin Co., started a
game on the gymnasium floor. AS
the teams played along and the
referees whistle was blown, the
game was stopped and the violation
in question was explained to the on
lockers. The meeting was the best
basketball meeting that has been
held In this city In years and will be
productive OF good results as the
season progresses.

This hardy serial hasn't much

of Washington's officialdom. Be-

Hathaway, I have a dangerous
assignment for you," said the CITY
Editor of the Washington Daily

"Come what WILL" replied our
hero, II am ready to do my duty,
SIR
"Spoken like a true Washing

claimed. IT want you to go to
the Navy Department and get a
sample Of the pen-holders they're

THAT shouldn't be hard our
hero laughed. "I will just nosey

desk, and run"

you do" warned his chief. I'VE
can't afford to have you shot,
especially like a dog. The official
Navy pen-holder may furnish. a
valuable clue in the street car
merger mystery. You must get
the pen-holder through the regu-
lar channels. Take your time"
Half an hour later, the doors Of
the Navy building swung open to
admit our hero, who stared at the
stairs and the corridors and was
finally rescued by a Waterman.
II want to get pen-holder, ;"
said Robert.
''oho, you do. do your" said
tile Waterman, his eyes narrow
ing. '''Well, you just come along
to the captain OF the watch"
So they found the captain, who
was busily banging the watch
against wall to make it go.
"Ohov exclaimed the captain,
when Hathaway's mission was ex-
planned to him. "I,ll send you up
to operations. See Lieutenant
Lookey.''
Lieutenant Lookey explained
briefly what Robert was to do to
get the pen-holder
"I'll give you a memo" he said,
to Captain Mivvle, and he'll turn
you over to his second assistant
secretary. who will register you,
and. after a thorough physical
examination, you will be sent to
Yards and Docks, to see the as
sistant chief of the office Of
hawsers, and he'll give you per-
mission to see the chief, who will
give you permission to get per-

to see the chief clerk of the de-
partment, who will give you a
card to the supply officer at New

"Channels?" echoed our hero,
climbing to the window ledge.
