Allen. (President National liasketball Coaches AssoeialPtn. ) Shall we make more changes in the present rules? Hasket ball standpall ei's say: "Certainly not. Why should we change them ?" P a h k e t ball progressive says: "Yes, because we need a more im proved game." And so it has always been. Hut two extremes often develop a hap py mean. Often, when a team pulls some Uesiinah1c play, which is the product of the brain of its foxy coach, the referee, as well as the rival coaches, shout, "Illegal!'' "Well, show me a rule agahiht it !" retorts the wily coach. Th" rule "book seems not to contain on-"'. And so it goes. I'sualiy, such plays aro found to be just outside the precincts of ethical basketball and just-within the rules. Consequent, ly, a change in the rules is sup posed to be the only means of blocking these Illegal "pet" plays. The evolution or the game of basket b:il stems to necessitate new offensive mid new defen.-ive measures. The offense, usually, utltspeeds the defence. . The joint basketball rules com mittee has mn ile some excellent changes in the rules and these changes should aid the game. Hut they will not give r the help lhat they should unless the official cun solve the difficulty encountered in their interpretations and in iheir enforcements of lite rules. Dribbling. Tho dribble rule has caused more, agitation than all of tho others combined. This year the responsi bility is put on the dribbler. He must go clearly around his guard ami avoid personal contact. put In the dozen or so early collegiate games that I have witnessed this year, the officials are working the driUble rule exactly as they worked It InM year. They are allowing the dribbler to plow through, and also to body-block while dribblint:. . I doubt if the advance of the season will find the averpgo of ficial of the game changing his lust year's habits mtilnrially. Hot this new anti-block rule is a .plrdld one. if enforced. Wmmling From the Hear. The change in the rules on "guarding from the rear" i an other good example of the failure of many ofh-ials to e.irry out the idea formulated by tlu rules com mittee.

I the rules, "the mere fact that the i defensive player is attempt ing to ! play the ball does Dot justify him in placing one or both arms over i his opponent's shoulder. if, ly so ! doing, he causes personal contact." j This infraction is "getting by" re peatedly without being called. ! Stalling. I'udoubtedly, it is the though of' i Ihe rules committee that public I , opinion will curb .-stalling lhat 1 - spectators will not pay to sec ac-! ' tionbss games. t : This committee has done much i to prevent stalling. Hoth the one-i yard rule and the hulldogging m-! 'freezing the ball rule have been j contributed as an aid to curb stall ; ing. i Tin; one-yard rule declares that ! "as soon as an opponent takes a i position close to (say within a yard ! of the player with the ball, the i latter must g-t the ball into play." i To date, I have seen some of the 1 n :i t Ion's best officials at work in , the game, but I have not seen one; ; of them call a single phiy of this . kind. Hut thi! infraction has oc- I curr-'d a score of times. r The rules committee has further I : decree that there shall be no ! "bulldogging or freezing the ball." t Hy this is meant that on a jump ba!l. the player may tap and catch the ball, but if ho then holds it until another held ball is declared, 1 ho may not tap and catch it on the i ensuing jump ball. This rub1. If ! enforced, will aid in preventing I 1 stalling. I ; A Xrw .Mental Trick. j j In most situations of lift, "the old order changeth, giving place to j . new." I am wondering as I write, if. before tho basketball season is : too old. these changes in the rules will bo made effective. Officials j have been calling the plays a long ! time under the old rules, and theyi seem a bit calloused to the pro- : gross! vo changes. Kvidently, they have developed a habit a reflex. I ' which will take time to replace. J J For instance, tho play in this one j yard rule is such n rapid one that J the referee's decision will require ! the development of a new mental j ! track. Old grooves are worn deep ; ly; and the men in charge of the 'game are not apt to develop new eyes and new tracks for a little white. ; Psychologically, in times of strcst: I and excitement, we revert to habits j j :ind action of the pant. Thus do . our splendid and we-nieanig of-1 ficials overlook many of the new interpretations. 0 which stars from New York, on March 31. The training cutnp Is to be i opened on or about March 1 1 .

FACULTY-STUDENT SKATT1..IS, Jan. 2 1 . W Whether Knoeh Hagshaw is to remain as head football coach of Ihe I'tlt ver.sity of Washington was still a ouestioii today, with tho student board of control insisting that he be ousted and the faculty athletic commission as strongly determined that he remain. With the two bodies to whom arc responsible deadlocked. It was up to President M. l.yle Spencer 1 decide whether ' Hagshaw will finish the three remaining years of his contract. Dr. Spencer has said that be will be guided entirely by the legal phases of the dispute. Confronted with a compromise proposal" of the faculty committee to add a back field coach to the staff and keep the "Little Giant" at the head, the student board turn ed to a lawyer for legal advice In the event Dr. Spencer denies their pleas. A special committee worked yes terday formulating a bill of par ticulars reciting students' griev ances against Hagshaw. This is to be presented to Dr. Spencer by a special committee consisting of the nine sttulcnt members of tho board of control as soon as he grants them an interview. Copies are also to he sent to the university board of regents. Meanwhile the fueulty committee sut tight on Its refusal to approve the board's ouster. fJAHY, Ind.. .Ian 21. oTV--Skl jumping is increasing in popular ity in the middlewest.
