Free Throws Aid SAE's
Sigma Alpha Epsilon used the
same weapon it used to defeat
the Straub Frosh last week in the
semi-finals, free throws and a
non-fouling defense. The SAE's
hit only six field goals to 15 for
the Phi Delts. but they sank 24
out of 29 free throws for a fabul
ous .828 percecnt. The Phi Delts.
who were whistled down for per
sonal fouls 16 times to two for
SAE, sank 2 out of 4 free throws.

spurt came in the second quar

while holding the Phi Delts to
five, increasing their 10-8 first
period lead to 22-1S at half
time. Stan Savage dropped in
six points in the second chap
ter. —
The Phi Delts were trailing.
28-19, late in the thin! quarter,
when Bob Wagner sank a free
throw and field goal and Quincy
Powers hit a jump shot to pull
the Phi Delts up to only 28-24
at the start of the last period.
Rex Davis sank a pair of
free throws at the start of the
fourth quarter to give SAE
their last points in the regular
game. Harry Johnson dropped
in a pair of field goals from
around the key, and Dick
Sohlosstein sank a long push
shot for the Phi Delts with
3:10 seconds to go to tie the i
score at 30-30 at the end of
the regular game.
In the overtime SAE's deadli
ness from the free throw line
paid off. Rex Davis, whp had 8
for 8 for the game, sank 4 for 4
in the overtime, and Joyle Dahl,
who also had 8 for 8 in regular
play, sank a pair, to provide
SAE with its winning margin.

a field goal, a long jump shot
by Powers.

point honors in the contest with
12 points apiece. Davis added two
field goals to his eight free

Hobson Offers
HoopRuleldeas
NEW YOKK (API College
basketball will get a proposal to
set up Its own rules If the pres
ent national rules committee
fails to come up with a .satisfac
tory playing code this spring.
Howard Hobson, Yale coach
who is to retire from the rules
committee this year, satd he will
make the proposal in his report
to the basketball' coaches con
vention.
At the same time he will
recommend a series of changes
designed to eliminate freer log
the ball for long periods, In
tcnlonul fouling and too many
time-consuming free throws.
Bobson, who makes a hobby of
basketball research, outlined his
program at a meeting of the
Metropolitan Basketball Writers
after a number of local coaches
had discussed last week’s "ex
perimental” game between NYU
and Manhattan under profession
al rules.
The changes he vs ill recom
mend will Include widening the
foul lane, adoption of a time
limit for shooting by a team
in possession of bull and u new
system of awarding foul shots.
He would give one free *hrow
counting two points for each
foul committed by t h«" defensive
team, whether or not the pluyor
fouled was In the act of shoot
ing, and the treat offensive fouls
or those made when the hall was
free hh violations.
In the latter caae, the offend
ing player would be charged with
a personal foul and the other
team would be given possession
of the ball.
"If they are good rliiutgcs,
we should consider timing
them adopted on the college
level and not let tile high
schools dictate to us liorausc
they can't adapt to them,”
Hobson said.
