BASKETBALL CHANGE
The National Basketball Com
mittee of the United States and
Canada on March e made three
major rules changes for basket
bail The charges. recommended
by the National Association of
Basketball Coaches will:
| Eliminate free throws when
a foul is called against a player
on offense and in control of the
ball The fouled team will be
given possession of the ball out
Of bounds as is now done in the
professional leagues.
2 Stop the clock after every
violation in order to give coaches
greater opportunity to make sub
situations. Under the old rule sub
stitutions could be made only
when the ball was dead on the
clock was stopped.
3 Create a neutral or buffer
zone along the free throw lane to
separate the first and second
players by foot when they line
up for free throws. The rules
makers believe this will tend to
loosen showing and iockeying.

Power At Plate, Fast Infield
Promises Success For Academy

Farmville has opened its 1861
baseball campaign with one VIC
tory and one defeat. The win
came Tuesday 90 over Amelia,
while the loss was a "a one at
the hands of Victoria last Friday.
Coach Gilmer has a fairly eX-
pcrlenced nine, with plenty of
power at the plate. One of the
main at the plate. One is get
ting his pitchers IN shape. a prob
lem that is common throughout
the area high schools.
Bad weather. plus a lack of
time. makes it difficult for the
pitchers to work enough to gain
The needed control and self con-
fidence. However. Gilmer is con
fident that his momdsmen will
develop strongly as the season
progresses. Two seniors, Jimmy
Craft and Harold Tate, are Gil
mers number one pitchers, while
a junior. Cliff Jenkins. rounds out
the main pitching staff. Relief
pitchers will include Skeeter Fore
and Donnie Cook.
Lamar Williams, one of the top
hitterS, is holding down the
catchers spot Also working be-
hind the plate is Howard Estes.
sophomore.
The Academy infield is a
woodworking unit. This is veri-
fled by their play against Amelia
At one point the Orioles had the
Eases loaded with only one away.
A hard drive to Shortstop Bobby
Gilmcr resulted in a double play
as he Tipped to Bobby O'Brien at
second. who cut the runner off
at first by six steps. This type of
working together helps the team
out of many tight spots.
Skeeter Fore is the first sack
CT, and Jimmy Harris holds down
the hot corner at third.
In the outfield are Donnie
Cook, left field; Bobby Schmidt,
center: and Frankie Osborn,
right field. Two fine utility men,
who play either infield or out
field are Jerry Frank and Mel
vim Reynolds.
The Wolverines play their first
home game next Friday. April
q. at pm. against CreWe.
The game with Amelia Tuesday
night was nip and tuck all the
way. The Academy got two runs
in the first frame. A walk was
followed by three singles in a row
off the bats of Schmidt, Harris
and Cook.

Bridgewater. Their victory was
a home contest in which they de-
feated Lynchburg 1879 in a wild

the game on ice.
Wayne Cook and Gerald Dun
can hit tWo-run singles in the
eighth to give Hampden-Sydney
the winning punch. W. H. Shirley

scored. Two walks contributed to
the Hornets downfall.
The Tigers biggest rally came
in the fifth inning when two wild
Lynchburg pitchers issued three
walks and hit two batsmen.
Buck Ames struck the only blow
of the rally. but that was a timely
bases loaded double that drove
in three runs.
Before their turn IN the big

This Sldeliner strings along
with the theory of SITTER require

more innovation to the rule. Why
not give physical educational or
other credit to high school ath-
letes who receive letters? To-
days ball players have to do a
lot of extra studying to partici-
pate in varsity sports.
Learning offensive and defen-
sive signals for several positions

Importance on the exams, many
all-male and coed colleges and
universities also have been COM
planning recently along the same
lines.
Various conferences In the
Washington area In past
months have turned up consid-
erable feeling on the part of
educators that the exams do
not always identify the most
well rounded student" the one
who Is consistently a good stu
dent, over g long period Of time.
Very often a good long
range student does not do his
or her best when taking a test,
but at the end Of a four-year
period will turn out to be a bet
ter product than the one who
does well on a test every time
he or she takes one." one edu-
Gator said here recently.
Among the schools in the
Washington area represented at
the convention, which ends to-
day. are National Cathedral
School for Girls, Mount YER

mes School. The Madeira

added.

not want to go to college for
four years. The answer, he con-
tinued. lies in the junior col
leges which provide two i'm.
portant things:
/. They provide q two-year
terminal program for students
not going on . four-year COL
lege program of four or more
years, technical training for
those who do wish to complete
q college program OF four or
more years. technical training
for those who desire to enter
skilled vocational and sub
professional careers, and con-
tinuing education for adults
who want to further their edu-
cations while working.
2. Junior colleges are eco
nomical to attend. Student ex-
penses often are low because
junier colleges. for the most
part, are located within COM
muting distance and thus make
it impossible for students to
live at home, and, If need be, to
work parttime in their own
communities. ~
For that reason, Senator
Case declared, "a dollar spent
in the community college pro-
gram would take care of more
students than a dollar spent on
any other kind of higher edu-
cational institution. @

today by Health, Education
