Booing Is Worst Basket Ball
Foe. Allen Tells Association

DR.. Allen said that In foot ball the
players are separated some distance
from the 'raucous-voiced fanatic who
would care to hurl personal epithets
at them on account of some act the
said rooters disliked"
The University Of Kansas athletic
director and head coach made q plea
for education of the public against
booing; urged dissemination of infor-
nation to amateur athletes warning
against competition with professional
teams, especially in view of the fact
basket ball will be part of the Olympic
program for the first time in 1896, and
the best amateur talent will be needed
on the United States team, and plead
ed for uniform box score patterned
after the base ball box.
For basket ball Allen suggested a
four column box carrying goals, free
throws. missed free throws and per-
Sonal fouls.
"The four-column box would give a
complete picture of the part each
player had in the game" he said.
