/. III. s. A. A. MEETING
fri HE annual general meeting
of the Indiana High School
1 Athletic Association will be
held Thursday at 10la. m. at the
Manual High School auditorium.
Under the present system there is
no voting on any proposals in this
get-to-gether.
The legislative body will pass
any new regulations ON Wednes-
day evening at the ClaypOOl and
the report of this meeting viii
be announced Thursday NOR
ming.
The legislative body is COM
posed Of four members elected
from each Of the five high school
districts into which the State is
divided and the five members of
the board Of control, making a to-
tai of twenty-one.
There are some rather peculiar
proposals up before the legislators
on Wednesday night Quite few
of them deal with the physical
examination of basketball players.
The number of proposed new
laws regarding basketball in it's
various phases shows how the
wind blows in this State. To
many, especially the smaller
schools. basketball seems to he
he only sport.
An interesting new idea on the
final basketball Journeys is out
lined by Principal Ada Manion of
Brownstown. 1t is as follows: %
(a) Instead of playing to a winner in
ag6 saye p fMS
from each sectional TO go to the region,
IN r on b S t 81 seasons ree
ord, prior TO Feb. 10; Teams wishing
to be considered, for seeding, purposes
(b) Have sixteen regionals and play
TO champion IN each regional, Draw
for games to be- arranged SO that the
cannot meet before the regional final.
lc) The regional winners TO. meet in
State tourney lust as heretofore.
One superintendent wants com
peting teams to carry two uni
forms, Aone of red and another Of
black, the visiting team to wear
the red. Evidently this is meant
to do away with any confusion
which occurs when two teams have
similar colors.
Another proposal is that referees
receive no more than So for a
game and mileage at 3 cents a
mile.
The Vincennes principal wants
the total number of games a
team may play i'm its regular
schedule put at twenty-five.
Another suggestion is that any
school in the L. II. S. A. A. which
has a team good enough to receive
an invitation to the National In
terscholastic Basketball tourney
be permitted to enter the meet.
Under the present rules this is not
permitted.
The list of proposals total TWEEN i.
ty-one and the legislative body
Nill vote on all of them Wednes-
n night 1t is rather doubtful
- any drastic changes will be
made.
The Princeton football captain
will be back i'm the lineup next
Saturday. There isn't any doubt
about the Jungle cats needing
him
@HOSE looking for thrills
surely got them Monday at
- Latonia race track. Rhi-
mock and Boot to Boot ran dead
heat in the Federal Hill handi-
cap, feature Of the card. The
money was split and those who
wagered on either horse got 10
cents back on the dollar.
In the second race General Gin
ton was disqualified after winning,
when it was found the horse had
carried seven pounds less weight
than the 100 pounds called for.
TT was an almost unheard of hap
pening, and investigation showed
1T was due to carelessness. 1t GER
tainly was not intentional, as there
is hardly chance to get by with
fany such action
10 49, q
g Capt. "Chuck" Kassel of Hi
! nOis plays, the violin at odd mo-
Z ments and Coach Zuppke likes
to paint pictures. Next Saturday
"Chuck" would like to play
! funeral march for Michigan and
! Cup would like to paint on the
( scorebOard four large goose eggs
I opposite Michigan-one for each
: quarter-and daub in few other
p, figures for the Illini.
Z It Is rather doubtful whether /,
4. the hopes of either one will be
AaIiZed. YOst is poor host.
