NEW YORK, January 11.-Showing
superior stamina and speed Marty Gal
peined the decision over Johnny Crosse
Of Mount Vernon, N. Y, last night in
the semi-wind-up TO the Paulino-Von
Porat bout in Madison Square Garden.
In two previous bouts Crosse has
been awarded the decision over Gala
cher, but the washington battler went
through last nights 10 grueling rounds
in a manner that left no doubt as to
the best man.
For the first five rounds the bout
was fairly even but toward the last
Gallagher's superiority became marked.

CENTER PLAY NOT
LIKED AT PRESENT
May Elevate Baskets tc
Change Game-TriaIs of
New Plans Urged.
BY FORREST C. "PHoG" ALLEN.

BY FORREST Z. "PHOG" ALLEN.
ERHAPS the next bit of i'm
- portant extirpation for the rules
surgeons of basket ball will be
the elimination, or modification
of the center jump or tip-of play.
The National Basket Ball Coaches
Association has made definite recon-
to the joint basket ball rules
committee regarding this important
feature.
Already high school, college and uni
versity teams have tried out these CEN
ter-play changes in regular games and
reports coming in indicate their enthu-
siasm for a change from the old rule.
However tall rangy and versatile basket
ball players will always be at pre-
MUM.
I predict that within one or two years
baskets will be raised to a height of II
or IL feet instead of 10 feet-the pres
ent height.
The coaches agreed that new plans
should be tried in practice and match
games during the coming season and
that reports be submitted to the COM
mittee. It suggested two major plans
as basis for trial.
Suggestion No. 1.
/. Eliminate the center Jump.
2. Toss a coin for possession of ball
out Of bounds.
8. The winner is given ball on de-
fensive end line, out of bounds, within
9 feet of basket on either side.
4. Play then begins within seconds
as in the present rule on out-of-bounds
ball.
S. On all field or foul goal baskets
the official secures ball and gives 1t to
a member of the side scored upon, out
of bounds. under the opponents goal,
or defensive end line.
6. In case of double fouls or technical
fouls it is suggested the official desig-
nate the two players who will jump for
ball at center.
z. It is thought this scheme may aid
in curbing stalling. by giving the ball
to TIN team that Is scored upon.
Suggestion No. 2.
/. Draw two circles on either side of
the present center circle.
2. The player who Is to put the ball
in play stands in the circle which is
farthest from his basket, with his own
team behind him
3. The other team must remain be-
hind the other circle until referee calls
play"
4. The player in the circle must put
the ball in play by passing to team
mate promptly after the referee gives
the signal to start play.
Still another suggestion retains the
jump at center, but zones the other four
men away from center.
This last suggestion comes from men
who have had much experience with
the professional game Of basket ball.
Blocking is emphasized in the profess
sional game.

swerves in to take short pass from

of No. 3.
AS he passes he rushes On a dead line

momentarily occupies the attention of
his immediate opponent, B. But before
B gets under way No. has nice lead
on him. He turns and takes a quick

first concert Of the New York
Philharmonic Symphony Orches-
ira on Tuesday afternoon at Con-
Stitution Hall at 4:30, bringing
us all the fire Of his genius that
has caused him to be chosen the
worlds greatest conductor. Last

greatest compliments any conduc-
tor could receive.
His program will include the
beautiful Unfinished" Symphony

second number is Bach's famous
Passacaglia originally written for
organ and arranged for orchestra
by Respighi. This Is one Of the

HELEN HAYES
GIVEN Al
SUPPORT

Z Gilbert Miller has assembled q
notable cast for Helen Hayes
new play "Petticoat Influence" :"
which is having its American
premiere at the Shubert- -Belasco
Theater this week.
Not often does a single cast
boast such a roster Of sterling
players-Henry Stephenson, Reg
inald Owen, Valerie Taylor, never
forgetting Washington's own tai.
ented protege, Helen Hayes.
Two such seasoned players as
Henry Stephenson and Reginald
Owen need little introduction to
American audiences, their splen-
did acting, based upon years of
untiring work in a host Of varied
plays, places them in the fore.
most ranks Of their profession.
Miss Valerie Taylor is a young
English girl who made her dra-
matte bow on American soil last
season in Gilbert Miller's produc-
ton Of Berkeley Square" When
this piece was given its premiere
in London. there was young
lady Of theatrical fame, Jean
orbes-Robertson in the cast and
so faultlessly did she interpret
the character of Kate PettigreW
In Mr.. Balderson's unusual play,
that Mr.. Miller was most anxious
to bring her to this country for
the American opening. However,
Miss Forbes.R Robertson could not
be lured from her native haunts
and so Miss Valerie Taylor was
chosen to portray the role in the
American company. 1t seemed
impossible that any actress could
equal Miss Forbes Robertson's
performance. but Miss Taylor did
just that and won q tremendous
personal success amid q COM
pany Of players whose every
member was a shining light in
the theater Of today.
