season draws to a close. Goal-Hi encourages the players
of tomorrow to practice whenever possible. What I have said
in the preceding remarks concerning the healthful results of
this exercise applies particularly to these erstwhile stars.

GOAL-HI AND THE HIGH SCHOOL AND UNIVERSITY
STUDENTS

“My previous remarks apply to the older boys and girls
of high school and college age. Americans are definitely
sports minded and conscious of the value of good health and
the need for systematic exercise.

‘In Lawrence, Kansas, where Goal-Hi has been available
on the quadrangle during the out-door season, I have been
agreeably surprised to see the frequent pauses, by both
college men and women when crossing the quadrangle, to
shoot a half dozen or so baskets. This casual relaxation and
exercise has been grasped by lIcne individuals as well as by
groups.

‘In the gymnasium, Goal-Hi is played according to rules,
with the standard teams of five players each or with entire
gymnasium classes. In fact, nothing in our gymnasium has
attracted so much enthusiasm and interest as ihis new game,
which certainly offers excellent possibilities as an intramural
sport. Members of the varsity team have thoroughly enjoyed
practice-shooting at the goal. Absence of a backboard calls
for more accurate shooting, and such accuracy developed
thus early in the year can be put to good use when the regular
basketball season begins.

GOAL-HI AND THE PLAYGROUND

“Goal-Hi is admirably suited for playground use. When
no supervision is available the game can be reduced to its
simplest form, i.e., the passing of the ball and the shooting of
baskets. In the years ahead, any playground will be in-
complete without Goal-Hi. When supervision is provided,
formal games can be played according to the official rules,
with five players on a team; or the rules can easily be modified
to accommodate larger groups. Goal-Hi offers interesting pos-
sibilities for competitive community leagues, which are com-
