BASKET BALL SECRETS
BY Sol Metzger-
To Prevent FuInblins.

Good basket ball players frequently
get into n slump. Plumbing passes Is
one proof OF this. Usually a falling
off in form is due to a neglect of some
fundamentai. When player discov-
erS he is not catching passes a good
tip to follow TO remedy the difficulty
is for this player to pay attention to
his meth"d OF receiving the ball. Hold
the hands one above the other when
taking pass. as in the illustration
on the left. Then he will find that
he will clamp the ball between his
two hands and that by having a hand
underneath it he can quickly eradi-
cate this error in play. Don't hold
the hands apart and parallel to the
floor. as in the illustration on the
right. The ball is likely to slip
through the fingers, and there is no
palm underneath to stop it until il
can he grasped. as is the case when
the other system of catching it is used.
