cemmmm QUESTIONNAIRE ON TRAINING AND CONDITIONING OF COLLEGE BASKETBALL PLAYERS EXPLANATION: I am anxious to obtain information regarding the training and condition- ing of basketball players representing the various college and university basketball teams, I am submitting the following questionnaire, which will per- mit a more systematic collection of opinions and put the responses in form for statistical tabulation, Filling out this questionnaire may be a contribution to the advancement of sport because there is a dearth of such studies.
