BASKET BALL TIPS
BY SOL METZGER.

Many basket ball players are at a
loss to know how one may legally
block an opponent. The rules dis
tinctly prohibit body contact. Yet
every high ranking five uses block
plays in order to free players near
the basket, pass the ball to them
and thus score.
A simple example of how this
block is worked will suffice. Player
No. in the sketch is guarded by
the player in the white suit. The
play requires that No. 2 be freed.
