Dear Dr. Allen:

Your letter of August 4th, in regard to the University of
Kansas meeting Rice Institute during the latter part of December,
has been received and the matter discussed with Buster Brannon
our new Basketball Coach.

Buster feels that inasmuch as he is new here he should have
more time to work with our boys before playing against a team as
high in competition as the University of Kansas.

Thank you very much for considering us and I hope that at
some later date we may have the opportunity of meeting.

Yours very truly,

Dear Doctors

I was very glad to get your letter of October 3, and
if you will let me know in a short time I shall be very glad
to provide you demonstration material on December 3, for the
basketball game following your clinic.

I em entitled one more game and when your letter
came I was just about to write you that I had accepted a game
on December 10, so this would come out just right so far as
I am concerned and perhaps we can have some fun.

If you have any particular employment that you would
like for me to develop in either offense or defense to help

your clinic crowd I will be very glad to assist you in demon-
strating the point.

With best wishes, I am

Basketball 's Jitterbug Era.
Can't Stall Phog's Tactics

BY HAROLD _ CLAASSEN
Lawrence, Kan., Jan. 31.—(A.
!P.)—Atop windswept Mount
‘|Oread, the consistent capital of
‘|college basketball, is a man who

‘sticks to horse and buggy coach-
others

ing tactics—and makes
like it.

Dr. Forrest C. (Phog) Allen,
altho as modern and intense as a
1939 jitterbug, keeps his. Kansas
University Jayhawks winning
|titles with tricks used when Pa
and Ma danced the dreamy waltzes
of 1905.

Successful? Twenty-two of his
twenty-eight teams have won con-
ference championships. In twenty-
eight years his teams won 322
games and lost only 70. He is

30 good he overcame his two sons’.

natural doubts of a parent’s wis-
dom and made them playing stars.
Horse-and-Buggy Plays

The advent of the ten-second
rule and the three-second law and
its subsequent modification of the
post play sent other coaches to
athletic apothecaries for. new
“system builders.”

Not so the doctor of Mount
|Oread. His quintets kept winning
on the theory “a, team never won
\ja game in its *life—its opponents
||lost it thru errors in fundamentals
\}and poor judgment.”
|| The debonair but vitrolic coach
|} —he once labeled A. A. U._ offi-
|jclals “quadrennial oceanic hitch-
hikers who chisel their way” to
the Olympic games—hboasts of
|having only a few set plays: and
no distintuishine system.

 

“Adherence to the principles of
sound fundamentals develops con-
fidence in the individual player. If
he knows the pass is going to be
good, he can be thinking of ma-
neuvering along a path that is not
necessarily rehearsed,” is the doc-
tor’s prescription.

“This is not mechanical play,
this is versatile play. It is the
principle of education thru play.”

At every game two assistants
grade the players on fundamentals
—too many bad passes or wrong
pivots and the player flunks out of
the starting lineup.

Since elimination of the center
jump, the pivot on a Kansas team
is the “quarterback” and is sta-
tioned in the backcourt with the
guards.

He calls the signals and handles
the ball first on all offensive
drives. | ‘

Allen is a graduate of an osteo-
pathic’ college but a master of
psychology. None of his teams
has ever taken the floor but that it
knew it was the better aggrega-
tion.

Uses Chaser for Water

The coach himself isn’t always
that collected and serene. The ex-
citement and warmth of the build-
ing make for a dryness of his
throat.

Game time finds him squirming
on the bench, surrounded by water
bottles. A nonconference game is
a six-quart affair. But at a con-
ference game he needs a bracer
—and takes eight quarts.

C. “Phog” Allen of Kansas uni-

“voice in the wilderness,” yet the
chairman of the National Basket
Ball Research committee .seems
to be a lone and forlorn figure
as he demands a drastic. revision
in ‘basket ball rules. -

All. Allen wants to do is in-

whose teams have finished last}
in the Southwest conference the |
last five years, “Leave the rules |

changes that would help us!” -

Allen does not stand absolutely |
alone in his amazing plan to par- |
tition off part of the court. Ken}
Loeffler of Yale would mark off a
semicircle with a 14-foot diameter |
under ‘the baskets. No. player |
would be permitted to enter this
“no man’s land” until’ the ball |
had touched the hoop or the bank- |
boards, and then only for about.
three seconds.

Big Ten Is Satisfied

Diametrically opposed to those
“left wingers” was the report of
Coach Harold G. Olson of Ohio
State: f

“A questionnaire sent to coaches
in all this area, including Ohio,
Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Min-
nesota, Michigan, Kentucky, ,West
Virginia and Pennsylvania, shows
that the coaches are well satis-
fied with the rules as they stand.
We feel we have a game full of

.| spectator’ interest, and we want
to keep it that way.”

There were some minor sugges-
tions that may be incorporated
into new rules. Hank Crisp of
Alabama and Dutch Lonberg of
Northwestern think the game
should be slowed up. Stanfield

| Hitt of Mississippi State believes
the out-of-bounds line should be
four feet back of the basket in-
stead of two.
No Evidence of Harm

Nibs. Price of California and
Everett Dean of Stanford find
fault with ‘the rule which permits
a fouled player to refuse the free
throw and take the ball out of
bounds. George Edwards of. Mis-
souri would increase the size of
the hoops.

From William “Bill” Bernlohr,
athletic director at Capital uni-
versity, Columbus, O., and presi-
dent of the coaches’ association of
the 20-school Ohio conference,
comes this reassuring note:

“Some coaches feel the game is)
too fast and might prove harmful |
to the boys. But, so far as we can
find, there has been no obective
evidence that the game is harm-
ful.7

of the team did not stick to their men closely, thereby leaving an open man cutting

fense that we employ is impotent. Corlis failed to follow the traditional training

that every goard should employ by raising his hand in a threatening gesture,
stomping his feet and using his voice to distract the enemy. Inglenan shot three

or four goals over Corlis' benign bodily movements. Not a cheep, not a thrust,
not a stomp, giving Englenan perfect shooting poise.

“Thousands of time I have said when you are missing pass five times to a
the guards were shooting consistently long shots, but they were very inconsistent

It appeared as if the White team was not willing to work hard enough to work the
ball in, but preferred to mke long shots, then stand as spectators watehing a pley,
while the Red team used the fast break with a long pass out to the deep man and _
Remember that a guard is the bulldog or the watohdog of the basket, and he is
defending that basket, not assaulting the other team's basket. Repeatedly I have
said that the only time a guard goss into the tnsket is on Ikmber 4 or 5 play, or
on a dribble where the basket is wide open. If the guard's drive goalward is
stopped by an opposing player, then the guard pivots, passes out, and imodiately
as soon as he passes he drives deep back into his own territory so thet he is in
@ good position on defense. Renenber this = and do not forget to over mike an
exception to ite

Another rule = when guard shoots either fron the side of the court or from
his defensive position he crouches and immediately moves back at once to the same
defensive position as just described in the preceding play situations ow, if
either guard forgets this very important mandate then he has weakened his teen.
And @ guard shoots only when he has three offensive men in a position to cover
the three rebound offensive areas. Both of our guards shoot and stand still rather
than to immediately move back into a safe defensive position. Then when any of the
rebound mon take the ball off the backboard that guard or the other guard has moved

back into defensive position and will have plenty of time to move forward strategically

 
=e

into a desired location to rescive « pass back.
The great danger of any offensive thrust by the guards is always leaving ~

their basket wide open for a quick thrust by the opponent. The guards will remember

that yesterday I cautioned the especially about dropping tack in a tanden position
and then if necessary coming forward to get into the pley. | o

The éwing play on the offense should always be enployed ty using one guard
tack in the key position in the center of the floor so if a tall is intercepted
thet would cut off a drive to the basket.

While a great desl of discussion has apparently taken place on the inability
of the guards on defense, I want to say now that there is just as glaring a wealness
by the offensive forwards on defense. on one play yesterday after the Thite tean
had scored I counted four men on the Whites with their tacks to tho ball, not one of
‘thon mtehing the loation of the ball while 4t was being brought up the court by
‘the Reds. This is an unpardonable and mforgivable situation by any team. It
shove their utter inaptitule to cope with a vital situation. Here the Whites hed
just scored and they were mentally patting themselves on the back, losfing as they
went baal, SAYER, "Well, we just scored, we will loaf back into a situation of |

self-conplacensy”< What should have been their attitude? They should have been
full of fire, glancing over their shoulders as they ren back, keeping their eyes
first on their opponents and almost instantaneously and collectively upon the ball,
just as @ fielder locks over his shoulder to witoh a long fly thet ts hit deep into
the field, recing back anticipating on arriving at the spot where he will field the
tall and then be in position to wing it on in to the infield to cut off a rumer
trying to advanee after the cateh. Merely rushing out there and fielding a tall
over his shoulder and being in no position for the throw in is jak ta tad on Oe
- defensive inertia shown by the White tean yesterday.

Then there was another play situation almost as bady wien Reid of the thites
would get the tall, ond being erowied for a shot, would make either a one hand shot
or a throw up under @ closely guarded position. The intelligent thing would have
been to have brought the ball to the floor, pivoted, and with a quick pass out given
it to one of the men in safer territory. Here is a dangerous thinge Then you miss
a shot on that play situation the bell goes to the opponents, of course, because
they are closely guarding you. The defense is in there fighting for the ball and
if it is an intelligent defense it is massed around the basket. Therefore, the
odds are against you. Whereas, if your thinking apparatus is working pip
pessing the ell out beyond this congested zone the holder of tis tall is ine
‘nice position to shoot because of the fact that the defense has draw @ cordon of

 

aggressive defenders close in under the basket. This is the difference between a
highly intelligent tem and e group of players who just want to teng tho bell into
the basket when they get hold of ite

GE) Ain CORNERS TE MeN mre
‘College players have learned not to throw the tell around like high school players —
throw 4t. You only get 60 to 70 shots per game, and if you will manipulate the ball
to unguarded areas then your percentage of hits will mount if all other factors are
equale Therefore you must increase your number of shooting chances and that is why
the fast break has been employed = to catch the opponents so that they will be out»

of description that we have used in a finsnejal sot ups I once had a so-called

great player who failed to train, and when it came to the play off dow at Columbia
in 1935 we lost both gemes. That fellow failed to train, and it wasn't the failure
of his physical body but it was the failure of his mental mchine, when he cane
up after those two games that we had lost he said to me, “Doc, I lost the Big Six

should have been the great concern. He sold his om team mites short.

You men playing on this team who are playing with men who do not train and
_ men who do not come up one hundred per eent should yourselves place the odium
upon this player vether than expecting the coach to carry the load, bocause it is
your team and the coach is merely a teacher in a class room trying to get the most

Now for rebound worke I om convineed tint we have got to do better rebound

where we will have to use tall men like Florell and Golays where Golay must leam
that when he jumps to tap the ball into the basket he must keep his hands off his
opponent's shoulder. Florell must learn to play a guard position. Golay goes.
‘back well on the backboard om defensive rebounds. He mst lea to wade through
the opposition end take that tall off the tnekboand ike he did when he was with

 

the Reds yesterday. We must do more defensive reboundings

I have observed that when the varsity or Reds had played 10 to 18 minutes
they seamed to sag physicdlly and mentally, and if they play a good 10 or 12
minutes then the rest of the time is not so fwuitful. Reid got five baskets in
the early part of the game and then he played about 15 or 20 minutes getting only
cme goal in all that time. Only Rnglemn and Golay played at their top game
throughout the whole scrimmage yesterday. I should mention Kappelman, however,
for his spirited play and his comeback fight in which he showed more stuff at
the end of the scrimmage than he showed at the start.

I have sat here in this early Thursday morning hour dicteting these apparent
wealmesses that have shown up on our varsity squad todays I will post these on

observations have been made after a very careful night of thought reinforced by
