WILLIAMSPORT, Pa, Dec. l.
Arrival of the basket ball season
brought a prediction today that the
sport would reach new heights dur
ing its 5Oth anniversary celebration.
This ought to be a golden year, "
declared National Rules Commit
teeman j. M. Good. THE fact there's
been such minor changes in the
rules should tend to stabilize the
game"
With observance this year OF
founding of the game by Dr. James
Naismith and special games to raise
funds for a memorial gymnasium to
him, Good said he looked for the
sport to 90 upward and upward in
the future"
mo American sport outdraws bas-
ketball now and more people are
playing it in this country every
year" Good said.
"Intersectional games have done
a lot to help the game. Y. M. G. A
play has progressed by leaps and
bounds the last several years. Hign
school basketball has come along cX-
ceptionally well.
Wen have an all-America team
picked by the Naismith group this
season for the first time. If we can
have a Babe Ruth in the Hall of
Fame we can have a Hank Luisetti
there also. The future Of basket
ball is rosy indeed"
