Klondykes continued their winning

the land. This became necessary
because the old forms of attack
were being mastered by defense.
AS yet, no standard offense has
been produced, as was the case with
defense a decade ago, when practi-
cally all teams adopted the flve-man
scheme for stopping drive for
their basket. So. this series Of
articles covering the various sue
cesful plays of the season will first
outline the various offensive systems
that were in vogue the past year.
One of the foremost was used In
Indiana, a State that is more devoted
to the court game than any other.
It is known as the three-lane or
ree-men-parallel attack and Is of
value only when the center Is fast,
quick at pivoting and sound shot
from near the foul line. He is the
man around whom this attack
centers. He, with his two forwards,
Nos. /, and 8, respectively, in the
diagram, drive up court in three
lanes, the forwards on the side,
feeding the ball to the center In the
middle.
The first play is for one of the
forwards (No. in the diagram) to
elude his guard, take a pass from
No. /, dribble in and shoot. Tomor-
row-how the play is worked If the
forwards are blocked.
