Much of the data for the ‘rating zomes from the regular score book, out other items require special ob- ervers, and in some cases two—one to watch and the other to write down numbers. Passing of the ball) from player to player is too rapid for one person to watch and write both. he watcher gives player’s numbers the bal] passes, indicating when 1 shot is made toward the basket, ;and when a score is made. From this record it is possible to determine who passed the ball to the man who scored, and even to give credit to the man who made the second pass previous to the score. What Records Show For example, the records of the Kansas-Baker game show that Pralle made 6 out of his 18 attempts to throw a field goal, and was suc- cessful on all three of his attempts |. for free throw. He made one im- mediate assist, and a secondary one; took the ball from the opponents’ backboard three times and from his own twice, passed the ball 72 times and caught it as many more, for a total of 234 evaluation points, Three times he failed to pass to an open player, twice he made wild passes, and once he fouled, for 19 negative |points. His 215 net points divided ‘by his 27 minutes of playing time | gave him an evaluation point per minute of eight. In the meantime, his teammate, Schmidt, who made only one goal and two free throws (out of two) chances) was making a 7.9 evalua- tion points per minute, largely through his feeding of the ball to players who could take successful shots. Four times he made the im- ‘|mediate assist, and three times the ‘|}secondary. He passed the ball 48 times, and his negative points were only six, two for tapping the ball out of bounds and four for a: wild pass. The method is going to be studied further. Forrest Allen Works on New Scoring Plan Special to The Christian Science Monitor LAWRENCE, Kan., Dec, 23—A rating system by which a basketball player is given points for all work contributing to scoring, and is penalized for. acts which detract from good team records, is being worked out at the University of Kansas by Dr. Forrest G@ Allen, basketball coach, and chairman of the department of physical educa-~ tion.-He is being assisted in the problem, both in the compilation of records and the evaluation of serv-|: ices, by Prof. E.

A. Starts Tee Water Trickle GREAT THAW By WILL. CONNOLLY AW NOT k HERE YET Although the first faint trickle of melted ice water from the great freezeout of 1935 was heard the other day when University of California at Los Angeles admitted Santa Clara to its football schedule, we feel it our duty to warn Hopeful independents not to expect the thaw to come in the immediate future. __.. It would be a shame to lift the expectations of the Northern California untouchables too high, only to dash them to ground, more miserable than before. U. C. L. A. was more anxious to obtain Santa Glara for the No- vember 18 open date in the Los Angeies Coliseum than the Bron- cos were to oblige the Bruins, if the truth were known. Santa Clara was already fixed with the most attractive and representative schedule it has enjoyed in many a season, what with Utah, Texas A. & M., Purdue and Michigan State aligned, in addition te standard rivals, and* the Bronco did the Bruin a mutual favor by agreeing to go south. The U. C. L A. open date was a worry to the management, so much so that University of San Francisco, a new power, and Loy- ola..of Los Angeles, lifted by the appointment of Mike Pecarovich as coach, were solemnly considered before the Broncos were signed. Both U. S. F. and Loyola .asked for the date, but Santa Clara had its oar in front, dating from the time Coach Buck Shaw was inter- viewed by Bruin officials with a view toward interesting him in re- placing Bill Spaulding. Buck politely rejected the honor, - but being a tender man, softened the severity of his refusal by sug- ‘| gesting the Broncos were willing - *, to play the Bruins, just to show no hard feelings existed. The union of Santa Clara and U. C. L. A. for one year only, so far aS we can see, is merely a hot water bottle placed at the cold _feet-of-the- independents and not JOHN BUNN a complete resuscitation from the rigors of exposure. Just yesterday, clined an invitation for a 1940 booking with U. S. F. with thanks, and the possibility of Santa Clara being returned te the California schedule is highly remote until ‘such time as the southern mal- contents, U. S. C. and U. C. L. A. exert their influence to modify the round robin. The Trojans, in particular, now being in the ascendancy, think it beneath their dignity to play be- fore county fair gatherings of - 10,000 or 12,000 souls in the far reaches of Oregon and Washing- ton, University of Washington ex- cepted, when a St. Mary’s or a ‘Santa Clara or even a U.S. F. or _ Loyola game in-the home coliseum Stanford de- | would produce thrice the tariff and no wearisome travel. When the break of the ice jam — does come, if it does, it ‘will be from the Trojans and Bruins, our maligned southern neighbors, who, we are beginning to think, are not /a bad sort after all. ©" An encouraging piece of news is that there is agitation among some of the finer minds of basket~ ball, including Dr. Phineas “Phog” Allen of Kansas, the patriarch, to lift the basket: from its present 10 feet above the floor to 12 feet. These men are inspired to con- sider a change in the practice of concentrating tall or on teams whose 6 foot 4 and 6 foot 5 inches come to the level of the basket rim when they reach for tap-in shots. A 6 foot 4 man, of which there is a plentitude roaming basketball courts, may actually drop the ball ‘into the hoop instead of shooting it upward, ac originally intended by the founders. The presence of so many long fellows has reduced basketball to a freakish demonstration and has put an almost unbearable handi- cap on finer athletes of normal height, say, 5 feet 16 or Il. We have seen tall clowns born without any gift for athletics, prosper in basketball solely on the accident of extreme height. In Continued on Page 3H, Col, 7 \ By WILL CONNOLLY. Continued from Page 1H any other field of sports they would be tied up like a pretzel. Elevating the basket to 12 feet would not work a hardship on the short or medium sized cager be- cause he must shoot upward any- how, and would reduce the unfair advantage that a string bean en- joys not by ability but by a quirk of nature. We confess we are prejudiced against longfellows. They always seem to take their station directly in front of us at parades, fires and auto accidents. No other sport puts such an out- landish premium on height as bas- ketball, and we think it is high ‘time for us short, paunchy citi- zens to organize against mezzanine floor Peeping Toms. Already tall men have a na- tional organization called the “Longfellows’ Association, Ltd.,” whose object is to lobby for longer beds and sheets in hotel rooms and more lengthy accommodations in Pullman berths so they may stretch their legs. Even left-handed golfers have their private annual tournament designed to take care of their mis- fortune, so we don’t see why short men and men of regulation U. S. Army height should not form a social club to bring basketball down to their size, or at least be- yond reach of lanky galoots. We cannot understand why John Bunn, basketball coach emeritus of Stanford, won't join our club. John is dead set against lifting the basket two feet, a puzzling atti- tude inasmuch as John is one of us and couldn’t reach the upper four vest buttons on California’s Biggerstaff, Ogilvie and Chal- mers without standing on a chair.

Lagann. a. 66 HOG” ALLEN has made P basketball his life and his profession so it’s not at all surprising that his enthusiasm has resulted in a method of rating that probably will be followed by all coaches in years to come. As “Phog” says: ‘T get my. kick, and I know other coaches do, out of figuring out new ideas, see- ing them used gradually and finally being in a position to say: ‘Well, I helped pioneer that, ” The University of Kansas bas- ketball coach described his rat- ing system at a session of the physical education meeting Fri- day. He’s quite frank in his ad- mission that the purpose is to help himself and all coaches who use it by providing the players with deeper motives than those of point scoring alone. Study of the system reveals encouragement for team play and, most of all, for fundamentals. Coach Allen calls it bas- ketball batting and fielding averages—“every kid knows baseball and has a respect: for batting and fielding averages. In no sense is it an out and out rating system. Yet by giving points for certain of- fensive and defensive maneu- vers and deducting for lapses, I have found the boys look forward as eagerly to the compilation of their averages as baseball players do to their records.” Briefly, the system gives so many points for certain offen- sive gestures and so many for defensive .work. Likewise, errors are penalized by deduction of points. Perhaps you'd get a better idea of the system if I ran the -| points used: (Positive are plus and negative minus, of course).

Correct evalu- ation of technique requires a fair- ly large staff of helpers Ret “Phog” says: “It’s always possible to draft some former player or some red hot fan, a basketball nut in other words. At Kansas, I used 12 men —six to check and six to write the points. Of course, three of each group checked the offensive work and three defensive.” The averages for the 17 games|y seem reliable for there’s no great variation between seasons. The coach detected a drop in negative offensive tabulation points indicating that the team made fewer mistakes this season than last. “It is possible,” he said, “that the team summary post- ed in the dressing room the day following each game made the individual players -more conscious of their mis- takes.” It will be noted that the pen- alty for a personal foul is almost as great in points as the: reward for a field goal. The reason: “The penalty should be high because if a player commits a foul, he immediately gives the opponents a chance to make five or 10 positive offensive points.” So there’s more to basket- ball than an arching shot from midfloor or from under the mesh. Coach Allen ad- mits that research of this type depends to a great extent up- on the accuracy of the observ- ers but evidently, he made careful selections for he has come to the conclusion that the system is foolproof. He cites these factors that give the study considerable merit: “Tt points out the mistakes dur- ing a game, thus causing the players to be more conscious of them. Besides providing an item- the plan stresses the importance of game fundamentals and makes possible a more accurate means of comparing individuals and teams.’’| ; ik (HE Cid eC HOTELS WHITCOMB Sin Paweiseo- weeny £ eee eS oe ee ‘TS date - Kien: S2 o \JOLDEN GATE INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITION, 1939 : ; fe es Cetesener = 5s Soa i = 2 ON a ERIE SS iE ee pe aS ea EE se SS cease aed Se Ae eS cod ie tel ea es piel is ones zl aaa > eS S © OS OO © ® © © OS O » © © GROUP INSTRUCTION IN TENNIS AND BADMINTON By HARRY D.

Only the states of Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania were chosen for intensive study. These four states were selected because: (1) Each state by statute requires that physical education be taught, (2) Each state has a director of physical education, (3) Each state has a state department for the approval of plans for school buildings, (4) Each state has a minimum time requirement for the physical education program. The book will be of value to state departments of education, architects, superintendents, teachers of physical educa- tion and also school board members. Architects, of course, will find it invaluable in planning school buildings so as to include what are accepted to be essential facilities. Tables and floor plans illustrate the text in detail.

Professor of Physical Education and Chairman of the Department of Physical Education, Mills College fi is a forward thinking contribution on the bases and methods of replanning the school curriculum in physical education for girls of secondary school and college age. The author presents a careful study of the present day girl in relation to her environment. Society today is complex and woman’s place in society has been, of necessity, and is being, redefined. The first part of the book is devoted to explore adolescent needs and to formulate understandings. Then, a method is suggested by which teachers may think and study together in order to plan their own programs, and also, a suggested plan is given for the individual who can plan for her own individual needs and desires. The book will be found most valuable in round table discussions among teachers and students and for collateral reading. The Appendix containing case material and a Bibliography of sources include this stimulating book which points the way for a curriculum which will meet conditions as we know them today.

BAKER Associate Professor of Physical Education FLORENCE M. WARNOCK Formerly Assistant Professor of Physical Education GRACE D. CHRISTENSEN Instructor in Physical Education Univer- sity of Minnesota = physical education program must be based upon funda- mentals and in this new and constructive contribution the authors have outlined a steady progression of fundamentals from grade to grade. The book offers to the teacher sound curriculum pro- cedure so that careful planning may be made for all grades, each in relation to the other. The chief purpose of this book is to: (1) give a steady progression of fundamentals within a grade and from grade to grade, (2) stress pupil ability in objectives in terms of fundamentals and illustrate how activity content and outcomes carry out each objective, (3) integrate basic principles of health with the activity program. The authors in securing background and experience for this book did the actual teaching of this material in an elementary school for two years. Further, a tentative program was made out and this program was tested by twenty other elementary schools. The book, therefore, offers a program that has been tried and tested by actual use.
