To Members,
National Basketball Committee;

PLEASE ANSWER

The diagram below is an attempt to crystallize the sentiments expressed by com-
mittee members relative to a modified backboard. The cut-out below the basket ring
is contingent on developing a basket which will fasten to the lower edge of the
board with braces to the 3 inch fly.

‘As a guide for experimentation ond for inclusion in the almanac section, would you
sanction such a size and shape?

 

 

 

TO KBEP YOU POSTED

 

Ihe editor and Secretary labored in the wee hours in the days following the meet-
ing to fit the jigesaw modifications into a bug-proof picture (We hope). Copy for
the summer school edition is now in the hands of the printer. In ten days or

two weeks, each member will receive book with the ink still wet.

No special effort is being made to advertise the summer school edition. Each
member may choose to pass the word along to coaching schools in his locality.
Would-be purchasers may write the National Federation, 11 South LaSalle 5t.,
Chicago. The price will be 20¢ per copy or $1.65 per dozen copics.

The Play Situations Book will be ready about Juno lst.

Yours truly,

Nee
