Press basketball coaches ratines
Despite the startling upset de
feat at the hands of unheralded
Georgia Tech last weekend. Ken
tucky topped the United Press

third straight week.
However, the Wildcats' defeat,
coupled with second-ranked Du

place , votes from the 35-man
United Press ratina board, com

NCAA Likes
Status Quo
New York flJ.R) Members of
the NCAA Football Rules com
mittee took the view today that
"we have , a wonderful game"
under the present rules and
"we're inclined to keep the sta
tus quo unless someone shows
us a very good reason to
change."
Herbert O. (Fritz) Crisler of
Michigan, chairman of the Rules
committee, pointed out that the
group was "not opposed to prog
ress, but he said many of the
45 rule changes proposed so far
were impractical.
"One proposed change was
that we use innings instead of
periods," he said. "If all the
rules that were suggested would
be adopted, you would not rec
ognize the game of football."
Nevertheless, the Rules com
mittee will take up at today's
session a suggestion to change
the rule that would help curb
the sucker shift." Crisler said
the proposed change was a com
plicated and long drawn-out one.
During Monday's session,
which opened the scheduled
three-day meeting, the Rules
committee discussed the substi
tution rule change which the
American Football Coaches , as
sociation proposed last week.
The coaches suggested at their
own convention that any play
er who starts a period should
be allowed to go out of and re
enter the game once each pe
riod. Coach Ray Eliot of Illinois,
newly elected president of the
Football Coaches' association,
spoke in behalf of the rule at
Monday's session. ;
Lights on EP
Field Installed
Eagle Point Lighting of the
Eagle Point high school football
and baseball field has been com
pleted, according to Glen Hale,
school superintendent. :
The lights will be used dur
ing the coming baseball season,
he added. The material arrived
too late for erection for the
football season.
The field is lighted by 10 poles
and is the only combination
football-baseball field that is
lighted in the county.
Coach Jerry Mosby and stu
dents have done some work on
the baseball field for the coming
season, and will work on the
track as soon as the weather
permits, Hale said.

75-POINT MARGIN
Does anyone recall a higher

a wider margin than, the; 49

the 75-point bulge of 79 to 4
for Medford over Merrill in
1929. High scores came harder
in that day.
There was no center jump aft

two-free shot rule for the final
three minutes, no one and one"
free heave regulation and no 10
second limit for getting the ball
past midcourt. .,'
SEEK PERFECTION
That practice makes perfect is
