Every year basketball officials are

and changes, just as the rules COM
mittees Of football and other sports
are besieged. This year is no excep-

Newspaper reports Of experiments

these tests to the future Of the game
is SO great that interest provoked is
well merited.
AS coach at the College OF the City
OF New York, J. have watched these
experiments with interest.
On the Pacific coast, an entire
league is playing its games without
use OF the center-tap except at the
start Of each half. After each basket

the ball out Of bounds beneath Its

At another college, several games

Fortunately, the defect OF permit

another way. Legislation outlawing
stationary positions in the basket
