It's Not Stalling Any More, Court
Coaches Decide! It's Freeze Play!
- This Is the fourth of a series
. of articles written by Forrest C.
f "Phog"- Allen, director of ath
letics at the University of Kan
sas and, nntlonntiy known bas-
. ketball coach.
By Forrest C. Allen
LAWRENCE, Kan., Jan. ' 29 (Pr
Members of the vast nrmy or basket
ball players In the United States and
othor countries, numbering some
18.000,000 men and boys, have a
commdn purpose namely, to throw
a leather inflated sphere through a
basket- and to prevent opponents
from doing likewise. :
But this great multitude is far
from united when It comes to the
terminology of the game. There Is
a wide variation in the terms ap
plied to plays, situations of the
game and the apparatus used.
At last year's meeting of the Na
tional . Association of Basketball
Coaches in New York the coaches
agreed upon a uniform basketball
terminology for the United States.
Next year these- newly accepted
terms -will bo made . public In the
rule book. - .
For instance, a play in which a
player slips away from, his guard
and scores a bosket unmolested Is
described as a set-up. Other names
given this samp play In various
states aro crips, Sunday shots, guts,
snow birds, lay ups, dogs, suckers,
bunnys, sleepers and pot shots.
COIUtlJCT T Hit MS " '
j .The word now accepted by the
coaches as correct terminology. In
the lists which f ol low, Is quoted .
The othor1 are colloquialisms and
barbarisms: ,
When the referee tosses the ball
up , at center on a "held ball," tho
play following is known as "tlp-otf,"
tap-off, tap, Jump ball, tosr., center
tap or center Jump.
In case a winning team desires to
withhold the ball from the oppo
nents during play in the waning
moments of the gnmo it is called a
"freeze," stall, bulldogglng, roping,
book court game or delayed offense
Describing the defensive type of
play so often spoken of as the man
to man stylo, "shifting" was voted
correct, with trading, switching, ex
changing, sliding and man -to man
preferred in the order named.
Tho boards back of the baskets
are to bo known as "bank boards"
or "back boards" or back stops,,
boards or banks.
"Basket" is given first rating with
buckets, rims, Irons, rings, hoops,
nets and strings following In order.
"Zone defense" rotes first, ahead
of mass, set,- territorial; accordion
and elastic band, pot terms used In
numy sections, - I

Formerly wo heard much of the
legal block, which , doesn't exist.
However, "blocking," checking, pick
ing off, smothering and spiking are
used to denote fouls.
"Screening" 1b a new term used
to designate a legal play wherein a
player '''pnsseBr between an' opponent
with tho intention of legally releas
ing his' teammate fop a shot at goal.

However, If screening je hades into
contact it is termed Diacxmg ana a
foul result.
In a situation where player "A'
passes to his own' teammate and
player "A" receives the return pass,
tho play is called the "return pass,"
1-3-1 pass, the shuttle or tne tri
angle pass. .
The "back court" is the half of
tho court away from the player's
basket. Back half Is the other term
applied to this area.

wisecracks when a wolf appeared In
tho outskirts of Moscow. The beast,
bewildered by his surroundings, bit
a policeman and a little girl before
It was shot.
Some, with a pessimistic turn of
mind, mentioned the wolf at the
door. Others thought of little Red
Riding Hood. Still others claimed
that tho wolf didn't like tho five
year plon for exporting furs and
showed his disapproval by nipping
tne policeman.'
Abroad wolves are often coupled
with the word Russia, but they ore
