Basketball Squad in Fine Condition for Holiday Tilts
Three Practice Contest Give Opportunity to Each Man
BISHOP AND COX STAR
Coach "Pipp" Allen sent his baskets through a stronuous practice session last night in Robinson gymnasium and then returned to the entire period. Three varsity teams went through a snappy 10 minute scrimmage tilt with three freshmen on each side. After the individual scraps, the men were sent to the showers, and before it was all over, every man had been given an opportunity to show his ability.
The squad came through the initial game with Washburn on Tuesday night without suffering any injuries. The team's first night's practice. Doctor Allen devoured most of his efforts to tutoring players in offensive plays, and passing drill.
The regular first string义词 valsuine quintet composed of Bishop and O'Leary played by Johnson at center tangled with the leading freshman five in the first battle of the practice, and the variety men was a dazzling exhibition of speed and accuracy although at times they were played too easily, and was ragged at intervals and on several occasions the froth broke through to the floor, as were the outstanding performers, both players making several spectacular dashes down the court to ring up a

Naismith Publishes Data on Development of Child
Studies 2000 Children and Finds Age Only Constant
Of the three principal factors of a child's growth—age, height, and weight—the only constant one, and therefore the true basis of measurement is age, according to a copyrighted article in the current number of The Journal of Education, by Dr James Naismith, professor of physical education at the University.
Doctor Naismith, widely known as the inventor of basketball, has made many studies of physical activity as a table for determining more accurately the physical development of a child. While granting that the body is self-regulating, he indicate ill health, Doctor Naismith maintains that more attention should be given to family and racial charge.
(    )
"A boy may grow as much as six inches in a year, while the weights for the various heights are determined by Doctor Naamith says. He would suggest that a child be designated "as tall as the average boy" or 8 years old, and be predicted to age of even 8. Chronologically, the boy might be 7, 8, 9 or 9 years old, the girl 6, 7 or 7 years old, and weight 44 pounds. In most age-health-weight tables, a boy 49.8 inches tall would be indicated as weighing 125 pounds.
Doctor Naismith's charts were prepared from data obtained by himself from his hospital, Iowa, Kansas City, Mo, and Winfield, Kan. In combination with his own studies on the reports by Roberts, Burke, Smedley, and Hastings, and in the Wood-Baldwin
Doctor Nasimh in his article goes to in suggest possibility of charting individuals relative weight-height, but also to strength, endurance, mental ability, emotional stability, social and moral development. He says that some tests he mentions. Some of these tests, he says have already been fairly well established, and others are still in the experimental stage.

ROCKNE FINDS IT DIFFICULT TO OBEY DOCTOR'S ORDERS
Famous Coach Would Never Think of Retiring but for Health; Phibiles Is Ailment
Chicago — (UP) A question heard often in the middle-west these days is: "How much longer will Knute Rocke remain as active head coach at Notre Dame?"
Rockne doubtless would never think
Sport Shots
Kansas is doped to win over Missouri Saturday night at Convention hall in Kansas City.
The Jayhawkers beat the Ichabods 7 to 19 while the Columbia quitter lost close 25 to 24 game to Central.
The Tigers have but two lettermen, Campbell and Huh, having had five men declared ineligible, among them Inman and Collins, last year lettermen.
Both teams have played one nonconference game, the Tigers with Central College and Kansas with Washburn.
The Kansas team is as strong or stronger than last year's while the Missouri squad is considerably weaker. The Big Ten championship year won the Big Six championship.
Last year Kansas defeated Missouri in Kansas City 17 to 12 but the Tigers evaded the score later in the season. In Dallas, Jakeyawhawk it win the conference title.
But the meeting Saturday night should not be dill since a Missouri-Kansas content whether on the cinder block or in the hardwood is weaker a drab affair.
Coach Allen in practice last evening drilled his pupils intensely on defensive plays.
Rocke's aliment is phlebitis. Some of the deeper blood vessels in his legs have dried up and he has to keep his legs wrapped with rubber bandages in order to facilitate circulation. He wraps the bandages every four hours.
Rockie is under physician's orders to keep off his feet while coaching, but he finds it hard to obey. Before the Rockies beat the Yankees, Rockie could not keep off his feet.
Rockie's problem is much the same as Fielding Yout's was at Michigan several years ago. He could have thunk football during the season. Finally, Yout's health be come so precarious that his physicians told him he wouldn't have many years to live. He was coaching. Yout then gave up the job of head coach and became athletic director. Even now, Yout finds it hard to stay away from the Michigan team
Rocke has developed some of the best coaches in the country and has 60 former pupils compete with them. One of this group may come back as active coach, with Rocke retiring to the less strenuous job of athletic director in the not fat one.
On the football field a student manager follows him around with a chair for him to sit down in, but with a tough game ahead Rockne can't still in a chair. He must get in the office, players, show them this, tell them that
Rockin' future may work out something like Yourself. Rookin' is so closely intertwined with the world that it is doubtful if he'll ever be able to get away from it entirely.
In his 14 years at Notre Dame, Rockne's teams have won 16 games but 13 and tied three. He has coached

Exhibition Game Tickets On Sale
Tickets for the Kansas-Missouri basketball game to be played in exhibition games are now on sale in the athletic office.
Nebraska has been Rockey's jinx since he took over the coaching staff in 1928, four games, lost three and tied one with the Irish. No other team has won a majority of games in a series from Nebraska to Iowa. In addition to Nebraska's four victories, the other teams which have played against Nebraska at Camiege Tech twice, Army twice, Wisconsin, Michigan Aggies, Iowa, Georgia Tech and Southern California, the three teams that points on Rockey's teams and that only has been accomplished three times, twice in the league of 1928 by Carroll University, California, and once by Army in 1925.
