Some broccoli shipped from Rose
burg to Portland has been inferior
and difficult to move at any price,
according to statements recently pub
lished by teevcraft Portland news
papers. "The main broccoli crop has not
begun to nead and what is being cut
now is from one single strain which
has not been widely planted and much
of which is producing small heads,"
says Prof. Bouquet of the department
of vegetable gardening at O. A. C.

at the root of the evil. He eliminat
ed tackling by allowing the player to
run when he does not have the ball;
and by having the ball passed with
hands only, he did away with kick
ing. When the question of goals came
up Doctor Naismith decided he must
have receptacles in which to throw
the ball. This idea was borrowed
from the old game of "Duck on the
Rock." The upright type of goal ob
viously could not be used, nor any
goal which would allow the game to
become strenuous by permitting ex
cessive force in scoring.
The superintendent of grounds was
asked to furnish two boxes, eighteen
inches square. But these were not
available just then and two peach
baskets were offered. Doctor Nais
mith took these and hung one a t
each end of the court, using the gal
lery for support. Since the height of
the gallery heppened to be ten feet,
that is the present height of the goal.
Lacrosse furnished the plan for ar
ranging the men on the court. The
inventor decided to have the game
started by throwing up the ball and
one man from each side jump u p
at it. The team consfsted of nine
men at first. The number was reduc
ed to seven and later to five, as the
skill of the men developed.
Doctor Naismith was born in Can
ada. He is a graduate of MsGill Uni-
versity and also of the Gross Medical
School. He came to the University
of Kansas as associate professor of
physical education in 1898, becoming
a full professor in 1908. During the
war he served with the Y. M. C. A.
