 Several times here and there about the state, we have heard criticism of the ''too much whistle" aspect Of bask This has been one of the reasons why fans have disliked the game almost generally throughout the cast. The situation as regards this particular objection has been we'll analysed by a writer in the Cornell Alumni News who is the author of a column entitled Sport Stuff" He says:
 This basketball at i's best is great game-fast, exciting and in tense. At it's too frequent worst, it's whistle duet performed by two stout gentlemen ill white pants and pleasing only 10 the perform CTS.
 The popularity of basketball in creases as you go west. The NAistle blowing gets bigger and better as you come east. Tho rules are the same in both sections.
 That's why in parts Of New Eng land the entire crowd frequently arrives in one taxicab That's why out in Indiana championship bas- ketball ticket is harder 10 buy than politician.
 ''The eastern basketball situation ts serious. Yet I'd go slow and be perfectly fair with the officials. I'd compromise with them on a 5o-50 basis. I'd let them keep their white pants. but I'd make them turn in all muslcal instruments and let the boys do all the playing"
 We have had several instances here of too-technical officials who have served to do nothing more than spoil game and in many eases. the contests billed were among the best on the seasons schedule.

North Dakota is to remain in the list

clauses in their state constitutions.
The matter was presented BY an in

Both groups expressed confidence
