12 5 players in the single game of basketball- it was 46 minutes and 24.4 seconds, Using the same method to determine the average amount of activity of Teams I.II,III and IV in the State Class "A" Tournament the amount of activity was found to be as follows- Team I= 41 minutes and 27.8 seconds; Team II- 33 minutes and 53.6 seconds; Team III- 36 minutes and 6.6 seconds and Team IV- 37 min- utes and 18.2 seconds. Comparing the results with those teams out- side of the State Class "A" Tournament it was found that Team II was the least active while Team I was the most active. Table-V indicates the number of times players were active three or more minutes per quarter. Only 9.5 per cent of the total cases timed were active three or more minutes a quarter. The per- centage was small ina state district tournament and in the State Class "A" Tournament. On the average by positions centers were most active followed by forwards and then the guards. In the State District Tournament not a Single forward of the 28 cases timed moved as much as three minutes a quarter, From league and non-league games, 41.6 per cent of all centers timed were active at least three minutes each quarter, TABLE V - THE NUMBER OF POSITIONS TIMED AT WHICH THERE WERE 3 OR MORE MINUTES OF ACTIVITY PR QUARTER WITH THEIR CORRESPONDING PERCENTAGES POSITIONS PERCENTAGES *A= Forwards 5 out of 28 37.8 Centers 10 out of 24 41.6 Guards 5 out of 20 15.0 B= Forwards 6 out of 20 50.0 Centers 3 out of 12 25,0 Guards 3 out of 24 12.5 13 a POSITIONS PERCENTAGES ‘- Forwards 0 out of 28 0.0 Centers 1 out of 32 Set Guerds i out of 20 5.0 De Forwards 4 ovt of 20 20,0 Centers 3 ovt of 20 Loe Guards GS out 3F 86 21.4 Ke Forwards 5 out of 128 59 Centers S$ out of 664 4.6 Guards 4 out or 128 Sen Fe Forwards 20 out of 224 8.0 Centers 20 out of 152 Lo~ek Guards 17 out of 220 Te?

The time necessary to terminate each quarter was less in the State Class "A" Tournament (F-Table IX) than in any other group, The actual playing time according to high school rules is 8 minutes per quarter, The groups in Table IX consumed from £62 to 6.45 more minutes to complete each quarter than according to high school rules.

As indicated one team in its second quarter utilized only 8.5 minutes which is but one«half minute more than the regulation time of a quarter. The greatest elapsed time was 21 minue tes, In this quarter, aside from numerous other interruptions, the team had many substitttions, "time-outs" and a great number of fouls were called, TABLE X + LEAST AND GREATEST ELAPSED TIME DURING ANY QUARTER THROUGHOUT THE SEASON AS COLLECTED FROM 61 GAMES IN MINUTES FIRST SECOND THIRD FOURTH QUARTER QUARTER QUARTER QUARTER LEAST ELAPSED TIME 9,00 8,50 9,00 9350 GREATEST ELAPSED TIMEL7.00 18.00 16.00 . 21,00 The total elapsed time for intermissions and interruptions are specified in Table XI, Only in one event was there less time employed for interruptions than for intermissions., That was in the State Class "A" Tournament. On the average in all the games timed approximately four more minutes were consumed for interruptions than L7 for intermissions, Intermissions are the rest periods between quarte ers and the halves; while interruptions cover time for substithtions, calling of fouls, free throwing, "time-outs" taken by the teams and "time-outs" by the officials, Comparing the different groups of team it was found that less tne was consumed by teams in the State Class "A" Tournament for pM&#ing the game than in any other, although more time was used for intermissions,. Regional tournaments required an average of 66.78 minutes to play a game, whereas, in the State Class "A" Tournament only 60.91 minutes were taken, In the county league tournament, the ro gudation amount of time for quarters and the half allowed by the rules was followed pre- cisely; all other tournaments exceeded that amount, Fouls were recorded in twelve games in a régional tournament and all the games of State Class "A" Tournament, The average number of fouls called was 26.6 in the former and 17.6 for the latter. This difference of nine fouls ver gare naturally has much to do with the amount of total elapsed time used in playing canes, TABLE XI + INDICATES THR AVERAGE TINE oF GANE? INTERRUPTIONS}.

The remaining part of the circle is divided be-= tween intermissions and interruptions (14.38 and 18,02 minutes ree spectively). The averace per cent of activity for all positions in cone nection with the time allowed by rules (8 minutes per quarter) is as follows: First quarter 25 per cent, second quarter 26 percent, third quarter 26.7 per cent and fourth quarter 28,5 per cent. This showed an averagé increase of 3.5 per cent of activity for the last ennieer over that of the first quarter. The average per cent of activity of movements with reference to the total elapsed time was 17.5, 17.2, 17.0 and 16.4, or a decrease of 1.1 per cent of activity between the first and fourth quarters; the per cent readings being from the first to the fourth quarter, This study showed that the proportion of interruptions in- creased as the game progressed - from 30.9 per cent of the total elapsed time for the first quarter to 42.6 per cent for the fourth quarter, an increase of 11.7 per cent for the fourth quarter over the first quarter, The percentage of non-activity showed a deerease of 10,6 per cent for the last quarter over the first quarter, The percent» age of activity, interruptions and non-activity by quarters is shown By four small circle drawings in Plate I=B, The circles represent the average total elapsed time for completing each quarter.

The average movements made by forwards, centers and guards in various groups are shown in Plate III. These groups are "A" repe resenting all cases timed; "B" all cases excluding those of the STATE Class "A" Tournament; "8" are Teams I, Ii, III and IV playing through- out the entire State Class "A" Tournament. ‘The movements of the forwards, centers and guards are the total elapsed time of activity in each quarter of 8 minutes of actual playing time. The greatest average movements in any quarter by positions are those by (1) Be forwards in the second quarter which amounted to 2 minutes and 31 seconds; (2) B= centers in the fourth quarter= 2 minutes and 38 sece onds; and (3) B- guards in the fourth quarter= 2 minutes and 24 sece- oncs, The least amount of activity in any quarter by positions is that of (1) F- forwards in the second quarter= 1 minute and 51 sec- onds; (2) H- centers, second quarter - 1 minute 26.6 seconds; and (3) AMINOlivisS S.4u3iaVvo errno i CARTER’S STATIONERY oe : e1 H- guards, third quarter- 1 minute and 15.3 seconds. The greatest amount of movement was that of Group B and the least by teams who played throughout the entire State Class "A" Tour- nament, & and # groups, DISCUSSION OF DATA Since the greatest number of positions (80) timed in any gropp was in the State Class "A" Tournament, much of this discussion will compare findings of the State Class "A" Tournament with the com- bined findings of positions played in league, non-league games, county , district and regional tournaments. The composite data show that the average time consumed to play a game of Yasketball was 64.4 minutes during which an average of 8.52 minutes was consumed by activity, distributed among four quarters, It might be interesting to state that as the game pro- gressed, the activity increased from quarter to quarter; while the total elapsed time per quarter enlarged. The increase of elapsed time per quarter due to various interruptions, increased at a greater rate than the activity, which showed a gradual decrease in percentage of movement per quarter, This would give the players more time: to recuperate evén though there is on the average an increase in activity, These data bring out the fact that the average activity et each position for players on teams playing in the State Class "A" Tournament in 1940 was less than the activity at each position in other games timed for this study. (Tables 4, II, IfI and Iv,} Perhaps, due to the better playing technique of teams in the State Class "A" Tournament less substitutions were made, therefore the starting players remained longer in the game. It is assumed that these play- 6érs with better methods know how to conserve their energies by ex- pending the least amount of energy to get the desired eaite. Another controlling factor in reducing the amount of action was pri- marily due to the type of offense used by these teams, Set plays were dominant in the State Class "A" Tournament in which passing was used to draw opponents out of position before an attempt to score was made, The time consumed to play a single game was less in the State Class "A" Tournament than was the case in the other games timed, Probable reasons for less consumption of time was perhaps due to two factors (1) less substitutions (2) smaller number of fouls and fewer violations, This study indicates that on the criterion used for activity, high school basketball players consume a relatively small amount of game time in activity. Guards as a group use less time for action than do forwards or centers. The latter two are about equally active unless teams use a post type of offense- in that case the man at the post position moves the less, As previously stated it can be assumed that members of the teams playing in a State Class "a" Tournament have better methods of securing definite goals with the least amount of activity possible, It is presumed for this reason that one finds less time used for act«- ivity during the State Class "A" Tournament games than in games of regular season or games in other tournaments, | St 42 difficult to compare this study with others as very little avaiftable information was found about movements of high school basketball players, As has Been previously stated most studies re- garding basketball players deal with the possible organic injury, therefore, very little compaPison can be made,. Data will present their own facts, 25 It might be interesting to compare some of the findings in this study with the brief report by Dr. James Naismith (4), His criterion for timing the activity made bB¥ players was: "all move- ments made whether walking or otherwise", whereas in this study only activity greater than a walk was recorded, While his figures regard- ing movements cannot be adequately compared with this study because of this fact, they are interesting nevertheless. Dr. Naismith's report shows that players were active 20 minutes and 12 seconds per game as contrasted to 8 minutes and 31.4 seconds of activity in this investigation. Part of the greater amount of activity by high school players in games played in Kansas City, wlissouri (4) was due to the greater length of time allowed to play. Dr, Naismith's study (4) on Kansas City, Missouri high school teams revealed that those games which were 40 minutes in i length required an elapsed time of 69 minutes for completion, This study shows that the games of 32 minutes in length required an elap~ sed time of 64.4 minutes for completion. Since the Kansas City, Missouri games consumed an elapsed time of but 4.6 minutes more in 40 minute games,#&t*ean be assumed that it actually takes a comparate ively greater amount of time to play a game under the existing rules than was the case 15 years ago, Twenty-nine minutes were used for interruptions and intermissions in 1925 while these items were found to consume 32.4 minutes in this study, Comparing the results of this study with that made by Nancy Miner, Pauline Hodgson and Anna Espenschade on girls basketball, with respect to time spent in active play, there is a close relation=} ship of strenuous activity between girls two-court and boys high school games, Their criterion for timing strenuous activity was all 24 movements greater than a walk, which is exactly the same as that used in this report. Both reports use 8 minute quarters of actual playing time; the girls! percentage of average activity was nearly 50 per quarter for the advanced players, while the boys was nearly £1 The probable reason for girls having greater activity lies in the fact that women's rules allow players to dribble but once; for that reason they must move about in order to receive passese SUMMARY The following summary and conclusions may be drawn from the data as presented: . Re 3. 4. Se be 10,5 il, i2 The average activity of high school players in the game of basketball is 8 minutes and 31.4 seconds, Intermissions and interruptions consumed 32,4 minutes, while the actual playing time according to rules is 32 minutes, The average length of time consumed to play thé game of basket- ball was 64,4 minutes, More time used now for interruptions and intermissions than 15 years ago, Guards are the least active players, Less fouls were called in State Class "A" Tournament games than in Regional Tournament gaies. As a game progressed the amount of time of activity of all positions increased per quarter, As a game progressed the average percentage of activity of movement of all positions with reference to total elapsed time decreased, Players playing in the State Class "A" Tournament are less active than players in other games, The least amount of action in any quarter timed at any single position was 49 seconds, The greatest amount of action in any quarter timed at any _ position was 4 minutes and 58 seconds, The least amount of activity in an entire game at a single position was 3 minutes and 39 seconds, 13, 14, i, 16. 25 The greatest amount of activity in an entire game at a single position was 15 minutes and 23 seconds. Time consumed in vlaying each quarter increased as games pro- ‘gressed, Only 9.5 per cent of the players at the various positions were active 3 or more minutes. Accfrding to data gathered the number of interruptions and fouls have a great bearing upon the length of games, CONCLUSION This study was attempted to secure data as to the time high school basket ball players were active during games, These data show that players were active approximately 27 per cent of the actual playing time. Judging entirely upon the amount of time during which players were active, it is reasonable to assume that if the game of basketball is proven harmful to high school players, the basis for this judgment must be on factors other than those relative to the amount of time players are active, Ie Il. lit.
