vised by Dr. F, GC. Allen, University | J}
of Kansas basketball coach, had its

ball players from Mt. Oread and/s.
other schools ° composed opposing |

The Wildcats and the Jayhawk- | i:
ers staged a rough and tough milling
game around the one basket in the
game which is played on a circular
field. The premiere took place |

“in favor of the Jayhawkers. “Goal-

Hi” is strenuous because of the fact | |
there is no let-up as in a basketball
game. ° Every Player is Shooting at
the same goal and after a score is |
made the Opposing team attempts

to grab the ball and score also.

Using a white basketball, the game |
is played. on “a field fifty feet in
diameter,*° A 6-foot circle is around
the goal post, which has no back
board, and no player is allowed in
this area without penalty. The
second area is limited by a space
thirty feet in diameter and is known
as the free throw area and this terri- |.
tory is in play at all times. The
outside area composes the remaining
Part of the field and corresponds to
the space between the free throw
lines of a regular basketball court.

The goal is an open target from
any place on the Playing field. The
ball upon entering the goal is re-
flected out into the court’ imme-
diately by.a meta] cone, thereby |
making the play continuous. If any
penalties are committed the one
committing the penalty is placed in ;
& penalty box for a time, as in j
hockey, and the number of players
is thereby reduced for a period.

Tonight’s same was played under;
regular basketball rules the first two’
periods and under the new “Goal-Hi” | €
rules the last two periods. t

versity player, was the star of the
