Coach Says Game Today
Has No Use for Names
Like Guard, Forward.
By the Associated Press.

N ICHMOND. Va, Nov. 30.-The
- University of Richmond will
N have basket ball team this
a season, but there won't be
any guards, forwards or centers on it..
Coach Malcolm U. Pitt, whose sue
cess with Richmond court teams
caused his admirers to dub his style of
play the Pitt 'em in system, said
he would substitute the numbers l.,
2, 3, 4 and for the conventional
designation OF players by position.

New Play Demands Change.

,ALLING a player guard gives
-: him defensive complex" Pitt
said, and may make him timid about
shooting at the basket. Conversely
forwards may forget they have other
duties than swishing the ball through
the hoop.
1T was all right to talk about
guards in the old days when guards
were primarily defensive players" Pitt
said. 1T was all right to talk about
forwards when they were actually al
ways in the forefront of the battle.
But all that has changed now
In the fast game now being played
it is necessary that every man be a
forward when his team has posses
sion of the ball. But by George he'd
better become guard in a hurry
when the other fellow has it."

of Agriculture Henry Wallace said to-

to be prevented, ~ see no alternative
to the widespread adoption of land
use practices that will prevent excess
sive run-offs and control soil losses
ANY other course is going to be
much more expensive and probably
disastrous in the long rum" he said
in an address before a gathering OF
thousands of farmers, farm special
lists and other interested persons as a
climax to his inspection of soil con-
servations projects in this vicinity.
Erosion" he said, lis most severe
in the Piedmont portion of the State
in this rolling country that slopes
from the mountains to the coastal
plains"
The cabinet members said accord
ing to the best available information"
erosion was now removing on the
average of the Piedmont enough fer
tile soil to cut down the gross income
crop yields at the rate of about A
cents an acre each year. Throughout
the Piedmont this reduced productive
ty means an average loss to farmers
of around $1,628,OOO."
