CINCINNATI DISTRICT BOARD

 

Eight meetings during the season, at which time, Coaches and Officials were
present to discuss and interpret the rules.

There were two examinations held during the season.

On December 9th, we held our Annual Banquet and Clinic at the Y.M.C.A., Cen-
tral Branch.

For the season 1932-3 we are classifying our officials as Active and Associ-

ate. The officials who have worked twenty games or more during the past season
will be classed as Active.

PENNSYLVANIA STATE BOARD

 

This Board with its three district boards the past season functioned as a
complete smooth working unit and its operation was automatic.

Although each district is autonomous, yet each conformed to basic state re-
quirements and national committees intent.

The Eastern District Board is composed of five local boards. The Central
Board of one local board. The Western District Board consists of ten local boards.

The finances of the State Board and all the districts and local boards are
in a very satisfactory condition.

A uniform, though flexible, method of approving new applicants throughout the
state was adopted at the State Board meeting in 1927, and is still strictly ob-
served. The state provides that all applicants must submit

(1) to a practical examination
(2) to a written, oral, or both, examination based on the ques-
tions provided by the National Committee.
Details of applying these tests are left to each district or local board according
to local needs and practibility.
