New Fan-Shaped Glass Backboards I i - in iimii i i in it n'miti f'lj The new fan-shaped basketball backboards made of Hercuhte will provide greater free visual area for spectators. Development of the fan-shaped glass backboard came as a result of scientific measurement of places hit by a basketball. The study revealed that the important area is in the shape of a big fan or kidney, which eliminated the necessity of a four by six foot rectangular back board. This latter type has been mandatory on recommendation of the Association of College Basketball Coaches. Fan-shaped backboards already have been approved By the National Basketball Committee and have gained in popularity with high schools and secondary schools. I Long vigorous tests under actual playing conditions have shown that -inch Herculite is four to five times stronger than ordinary glass of the same thickness,.
