COLLEGF BASKFTBALL COACHFS OF AMERICA
From The
Fastern College Basketball

Coaches Association

In an effort to obtain completely accurate data as to coaches! preferences in
such vital items of playing equipment as backboards and bells, this questionnaire
is being mailed to every college basketball coach in the country.

‘The National Basketball Rules Committce recently urged rapid transition to the
patented fan-shaped backboard and moulded ball with a view to making these imple-
ments the sole official equipment in the near future. |

This questionnaire is for no other purpose than to determine whether such a
radical and hasty change is desirable, anc whether it is in accorc with the wishes
of a majority of the. college coaches. ,

Information compiled from the questionnaire will be submitted to the board of
directors of the Netional Association of Basketball Couches anc to the National
Basketball Rules Committee for their guidance.

Please fill out the questionnaire and mail it to me at your earliest convenience.
