Tho coumittce sinccrely hopes that teachers of the gnme
are mking every effort not only to take pictures of their ganes but slso
obtaining the proper cquinucnt vhich vill_cnable thom to build
a snorts library in thoir chosen snort, This past season, to be
more specific, wo at City Colleze purchased a dirst class projector
md sercen. This being: the oxclusive property of the Physical
Education Dopartment and used for the showing of pictures in the ficld
of snorts and personal hy:ione lectures, To say thet visual aids have
holped immeasurably in getting our playcrs to SEE the positive ond
nog-tive apnroach to a team situation is to put it to you rather
mildly. Definite arrangzemonts have been made at the end of various
practice sessions to screen actual gmc pictures vhero emphasis has
been placed on offensive and defensive technique. Some playcrs
develop faster through practical demonstration, Others througn
ouditory and visual aids, Ht is diffialt to dcotermine thich one
is more effective,

Many probloms still remain betvcon tho coach and his
ercotest realization of tho nossibilitics of the motion pnicturo for
the general advancoment of th some,

1. Tho searcity of film metorials for instructional
ournoses. For producers hrve bothercd to focus on the spurts markot
and as a result tho films availablo do not moet the exactin, domends
of the coachin,: profession.

3, Tho nroblen of prover eveluction of prosent basketbell

Association snorts library, but the probler is 2 large one and one
which should be met both individually ond collectively for the mmy
conches vho are constontly seckin> materinl in the ficld for instruct-
ional vurmosces.

4, The lack of adaqunite projection cquipment. While there
hes been a creat incronse in the past tvo or throc years in the use
of projection cquipont in schools, far too many schools remain with
out facilities, It is honed thet educators and especially those in
tho fiold of Physicel Educction covering varsit: ond intracural svorts
prograas will soon reelize with unanimity the immortaace of visual
aids. loo many of our schools are livin: in the stage conch or magic
lantern days of projection cquiniacnt, There scoms to bo 1 definite
rolationshin betveon the availnoility of sood basketball fils for
our teachers of the sport’ and tho availability of cquipmont., ach is
dependent unon the other for the nrover measure of oducational and
social usefulness. Loaders in the ficld of cducntion, leaders in the
field of snort, lenders in tho nrofession:l filu industry should
vielcome now iders ond suggestions whereby the product, our anne of
basketball, can vc improved and large audience neods at least be
partially sotisficd,
