According to an AP report,
Nat Holman, coach o '.he City
College of New Vork, said re
cently he did not allow one of
his players to attempt a Jast
minute free throw because he
wanted to to"
the bookmakers
attending the
Madison Square

was a 6 to 8 fa

who wanted to

his chips bet on
City College he

points; if the same gent wanted

teived six markers.
Bill Levine of C. C. N. Y.
was fouled with only seconds
to so and with City College
leaning by a comfortable six
points. If Levine sunk the ex
tra bucket the C. C. N. V. mar-,
gin would have been seven
and the bookies would have
collected all stray lettuce.
' Instead, Holman ordered Le
vin to waive the free throw .
under the pretense that it
was good basketball and his
team took possession of the
onion at midcourt and stalled
until the gun amid the boos of
the crowd.
These tactics seem downright
silly to us. Afterwards Holman
said, "Of course, I knew what
the odds were and so did my
kids. When it comes to the point
that the betting fraternity runs
basketball games, I want to get
out."
W sympathize deeply with
Brother Holman, but what
business was it of his, or his
"kids" either, whether they
- were favored by eight points
or eighty? For a guy that has
such a deep aversion to gam
bling. Brother Holman keeps
mighty close track of the oddsl

Jandreau picked up seven points

T"
quarterback was standing before
the pass from center to deter
mine whether he intended to go
out after a pass. If he was less
man a yard Denina me center,
the quarterback was ineligible Id
receive a pass.
Under a new rule adopted by
the rules committee of the Na
tional Federation of High School
Athletic associations at its. ses
sion here, the quarterback now
is an etigioie pass receiver re
gardless of where he stands be
fore the center-snap.
That rule makes six men
eligible as pass receivers at all
times the four backs and the
two ends. It -will allow the
?uarterback to take the ball
rom the center, toss it to anoth
er back and cut through the line
as a receiver, and it brings up a
host of other possibilities to add
impetus to the offense.
The rule change was one of
four passed by the committee be
fore it adjourned late Saturday.
The others:
1. Any kick going over a goal
line becomes an automatic touch-
back, regardless of whether it
receives added impetus before
crossing the goal.
2. The penalty for intentional
ly discarding a-headgear will be
loss of five yards. Previously, a
time out was charged for the ol
fense.
3. Any kick passing the line
of scrimmage and touching a re
ceiver, becomes an automatic
first down if recovered by the
kicking team, regardless of on
which side of the scrimmage line
it is recovered.
The committee also discussed
a rule change that would permit
the defending team to advance
with a fumble, but shelved the
proposal until next year.

Rapid Robert" Feller, the kid
from Van Meter, 111., who was
the smoke ball king of the ma

United States today with the
conviction that baseball "is one
of the American ideals we in

Chief Specialist Feller made
port yesterday, after an 18
months' tour of duty which
took him into both Pacific and

he said, he would head for

Sailors Tangle
With Marines
Tuesday Night
Tuesday night at the Klamath
naval air station, the pugilistic
sailors will take on a bevy of
fighting marines from the Ma
rine Barracks in a first-rate box
ing show.
These bouts will be open to
servicemen only, but it is
thought that if sufficient inter
est is shown a card will be
staged at the armory open to
the public at a later date.
In the fights tomorrow night,
Mike Alfano will swap leather
with Sailor Al Burkhardt, who
fought professionally under the
monicker of "Kid Silk," in the
main event. Both boys are in
the 160-nound class.
Other marines who will throw i
punches in the clambake are
Frank Dallapiazzo, Rudy Saler
zo, John Wlnningham, George
Cox, Lito Perez and Jack Cur
tis. J. B. Stefan, coach of the ma
rine boxers, is a former Golden
Glove and CYO champion and
nas tne reputation of never hav
ing lost an amateur battle. Stef
an fought in the 112-pound class
from 1938-41 and won three
Golden Glove titles.
In a slug-fest held at the arm
ory some weeks ago the sailors
emerged victorious over the ma
rines, and the boys from the
Barracks will be going all out
to even matters tomorrow night.
