JOSEPH NEWS-PRESS AFTERNOON AND SUNDAY St. Joseph Gazette MORNING C.M.PALMER, PRESIDENT HENRY D. BRADLEY, PustisHer ST. JOSEPH, MISSOURI EDITORIAL ROOMS ARTHUR V. BURROWES, EDITOR Jane2s Dear Phog; I was wondering if what I wrote about the game would reach you and what your reaction would be. I sent Elliott a clipping hoping that it would fall into your hands as 1 think people should know what is being said about them. Your remark about DeVictor was out of character and unworthy of youe I know 4 number of the men at Columbia but have never had the pleasure of meeting Mr.DeVictor,\ty§ ideas were strictly my own, without any prompting, altho to be t&ruthful I was watching for some things as the result of comments by basketball fans here who had seen Kansas earlier in the season. It is my understanding of the rules that a trainer or coach can go on the floor any time that time has been called and when he received recognition from the referees AND that the referee should be with him when he is administering to the team or a player. Am I wrong? My column, as much as referred to the trainer bn therefloor, was based on my assumption. I noted that Nesmith did not ask for permission or recognition during the first game and not iny the second until id Ellis had called him on it, Maybe Nesmith isn't a basketball player but 1 noted that while he was on the bench that he was continually coaching the players nea@ him. If he doesn't know any more about the game than you indi cated you are taking an awful risk in letting him yell out advice, I am heartily with you on the idea of letting players communicate when theygenter the game. (here is no way of é@enfppneing a rule against it so why have such a rule’. As to the trainer transmitting informa- tion and advice that isn't the point. If the rules say he should be accompanied by an official either the rule should be enfa ced or dropped from the book. It seems a silly rule anyhow but if it is in the book something should be done about, A couple of years ago after a football game at Lawrence I asked Gwinn Henry what a coach could drum into his players’ heads in the final huddle that he hadn't already taught them and his reply was "nothing". that cottncided with my own idea and I think the pre-game and pre-half huddles around a coach are being overdone in all lies of sport. Snthusiasm on the bench and in the game is commendable but isn't -ST. JOSEPH NEWS-PRESS AFTERNOON AND SUNDAY - St. Joseph Gazette MORNING C.M.PALMER, PRESIDENT HENRY D. BRADLEY, PustisHer ST. JOSEPH, MISSOURI EDITORIAL ROOMS ARTHUR V. BURROWES, EDITOR page 2 it carrying it a bit too far to have players calling the fouls all during a game, particularly in unison? To my mind it has either one of two effects on the officials. If they are easily swayed they are liable to react wéthpthe players. If they are not susceptible isn't coyjtinued heckling, which it actually amounts to, liable to make the official a bit mad and likely to call the plays the other way? I have seen both reactions in different games and it is my theory that the less said to an official about and during his handling of the game the better he will work as he is able to concentrate on his job. ith is my thought that honest criticism is good for any game. if there are things that need to be corrected there is little like- lihoed of their being corrected unless criticism is made. Of course nothing is perfect and criticism can be @overdone. A man should be able to see the good side as well as the bad and 1 think that L made it quite clear that I admired the efficiency and sportsmanship of yourself and your team. If I did not I apologize. I don't get to see your basketball teams as often as I would bike, due to my working schedule, but it has always been a pleasure to see them play and I hope to have numerous opportunities in the future. I appreciated your comment on what I said in the column and if ft am wrong on any point I appreciate correction as no one can learn except by receiving information 8pmm someone who knows more than he doese Sincerely ant Arthur F Hughes Mareh 15, 1943.
