Dear Dr. Allen:

We have had our equipment man and custodian
search high and low for the basketball trunks you thought
might have been left in our dressing room. We fail to
find any trace of them, and it looks as though Engleman
will have to be playing without his pants.

If they were left in the dressing room at our
place it is entirely possible that some of the youngsters
who hang around the building trying to get autographs
of your team might have picked them up as a souvenir.

ially yours,

W. H. Browne
Basketball Coach

2. RULES INTERPRETATIONS 7
&» On balls which go out of bounds behind the basket, the twelve-foot lane
shall be permitted in which to make the pass back into the court. This, of course,

does not apply to out of bound plays following a field goale

be Whenever a ball is awarded to a team out of bounds in its front court,
the official should hand the ball to the player in the front court, step aside,
and say “Play", and be sure the player is in a position to plays )
Basketball Interpretations, page 2. |

Ge In the three-second count in’ the lane, the fiveesecond count out of bounds,
and the ten-second count in advancing the ball to the front court, it is asked that
the officials use the so-called “artillery man's count". In other words, the coaches
favor a slightly long seoond as they fee] that officials have been hurrying,
particularly the three-sesond and the fiy ond counte it is suggested that
officials practice this count with a stop. witohe

ds The officiel score book for the gue is to be left at the scoring table
at the half. ao

os Attention is called tint the officials take particular pains to see that
the scorer mows on whom the foul has been called. It is recammended that the
officiel in the most favorable position get this information to the scorers

fs In desigmting field goals, it is asked that the official raise both hands
up, as in a touchdowns that one hand be raised up for a free throwe In designating
no goal, iske Wil Geeneed gaseSiel to the fleas, as is the slesed pelt aftur
touchdowns

ge It is asked that the official scorer for each school have printed in the
back of the score book the pertinent rules regarding timing and scoringe

he It is the desire of the coaches that Rule 7, Section 9, relative to
rumiing with the ball, be observed, Especially thet part of the rule which

ie Coaches approve a little slower whistle on held balls. in other words,
a7 want the officials to give Vat one tug that is permissible before held ball

wording thet fumble at the end of a dribble is not a double dribble.

Dear Doc:

Have waited until the last minute thinking something
would break so I wouldn't have to do this,but between the Board of
Education here and our league schedule I am having a tough time.

With eight teams in the League this year we are having to
play two games in the Afternoon and two at Night. When the orginial s
schedule came out we were to play the afternoon of Jan.leth. I would
have been able to get up to Lawrence in plenty of time for your game
with Kansas State. As the schedule stands now we are going to play at
night the 12th. and I won't be able to get there.

Will be up to see your team in action next Tuedday night

Very "ie yours,

R.E.Peters
