Though Johnny Brunette, forward,
who scored Is points, was the only

The ball is held by the finger and
thumb tips That is the way basket
ball is played these days. Knute
Rockne uses the tips of the fingers
and thumbs of his Notre Dame foot
ball players in much the same way.
1t makes for accuracy and speed in
handling a ball.
The reason for the tips being used
is apparent to anyone when it is re-
called that in them is the sense of
touch. The blind are taught to read
with them.
To make the shot the ball Is held
chest high and then propelled so it
will loop into the basket and not
just slide over its near rim. The
finger tips impart the loop and back
spin. The player must glue his eyes
on the basket and keep them there
during the shot.

Basket Ball Problems
by OSWALD TOWER
Member Joint Rules Committee

Question-How long should the ref
cree wait before calling held ball when
the player with the ball is closely
guarded?
Answer-Held ball should not be
called until it is evident the player
cannot, or does not intend to get rid
of the ball. Time should be allowed
for his teammates to get into position
for a pass The amount of time will
vary with the conditions in each case
but it should be emphasized that this
is not quick whistle play" Officials
should wait until they are convinced
the player is withholding the ball from
play.

Superiority at center, more speed and
greater accuracy in shooting enabled
Randolph Macon to defeat Maryland
in a game that lacked much from an
artistic basket ball standpoint.
Woodson of Randolph Macon got the
tap-off most of the time and played a
much better floor game than the three
men Maryland used at center, and this
was the main factor in the victory of
the AShlanders
Maryland, on the other hand, was
of in its passing and shooting, blow
ing many easy shots in the first half,
when it could easily have piled up
commanding lead. Instead it was
ahead only ii to. Is at intermission and
when the Randolph scored three
times on pot shots to start the second
20 minutes of play it took the lead and
stayed there.
Woodson was Randolph Macon's lead
ing player in general work and in scor-
ing, making II points, but Trader, at
guard, ran him a close second.
Gaylor, with points, was Marylands
best scorer, but Radice and Dean. who
played fine floor games, trimmed the
basket time after time, only to have
the ball drop outside.

The tWo-hand chest shot that
Michigan uses on its famous held
ball play is the shot most used in
basket ball for scoring goals. The
player making the shot takes step
forward, pointing both feet at the
basket. He grips the ball as shown
in the illustration, the hands being
directly opposite each other, so
neither will throw the ball off line.
