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,
