Registration of Officials

Previously registered football and basketball of-
ficials have received their renewel application cards
for the 1955-56 school year. Approximately seventy
officials failed to file their 1954-55 reports on or be-
fore the deadline set by the Board of Control for
the submitting of reports, and it was necessary to
impose a fine on each official who thus failed to
comply with Association rules. It is an Association
requirement that each registered official attend a
clinic in the sport in which he is registered. Six-
teen football officials and thirty-five basketball of-
ficials were suspended in 1954-55 for failure to
attend clinics. Unless an official plans to attend
one or more clinics during the season and to file
his report on member schools promptly at the end
of the season, he should not apply for registration
in the Officials' Division of the Association.

dent Russell Williamson; Directors James L. Cobb,

of the National Federation held at York Harbor,
Maine, on June 26-30. A report of the meet-
ing will appear in the September issue of the

Protection Fund Credit

The Board of Control in its April meeting voted
a dividend credit out of State Basketball Tourna-
ment funds in the amount of $30.00 to each school
insuring its athletes in the K. H. S. A. A. Protection
Fund for 1955-56. This is the fourth year in which

National Federation Annual Meeting

The thirty-sixth annual meeting of the
National Federation of State High School
Athletic Associations was held at York Har-
bor, Maine, on June 26-29, 1955. Forty-four
State Associations and two Canadian Affil-
iated Associations were represented. Fifty-
one State Executive Officers or Assistant
Executive Officers, forty-seven State As-
sociation Board of Control officers and sixty-
one Board of Control members were in at-
tendance. The total individual attendance
was 438. This represents a new high record
of number of states represented and total
attendance.

Kentucky was represented at the meeting
by K.H.S.A.A. President Carlos Oakley;
Vice-President Russell Williamson ; Directors
James L. Cobb, Roy G. Eversole, W. B.
Jones, Louis Litchfield, and Jack Dawson;
Commissioner Theo. A. Sanford ; and Assist-
ant Commissioner J. B. Mansfield. At their
respective sessions for Executive Officers
and Board of Control members. Commission-
er Sanford and Director Cobb gave reports
on "State Association Owned Buildings."

The meeting was made the occasion for
announcements concerning several Executive
Officers. William W. Russell is the Secretary-
elect of the California Interscholastic Feder-
ation, succeeding A. B. Ingham, who has an-
nounced his retirement as of July 1, 1955.
Lawrence B. Graves is the Executive Secre-
tary of the South Carolina High School
League, succeeding E. W. Stokes, who re-
signed from that position to accept a posi-
tion with a school supply firm in that area.
R. S. Locke, principal of the hieh school at
Barrington, is Chairman of the Rhode Island
Secondary School Principals' Association,
succeeding Charles H. Abbott, who has re-
tired from active school administration work.
H. A. Swaffield, formerly president of the
Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Con-
ference, Inc., is the executive consultant who
is serving on a part-time basis on the Connec-
ticut Board of Control. James F. Miller, who
at various times has served on the Missouri
State High School Activities Association

Board of Control, will begin his duties as
Assistant Secretary of the Missouri State
High School Activities Association on July 1.
He will assist Secretary T. L. Noel in Associa-
tion work, especially in connection with the
rules training program and related activities.

An impressive initiation ceremony was
conducted. Secretary J. J. Devitt (Maine),
Secretary J. Robert Eddy (New Hampshire) ,
Secretary J. K. Fagans (California Inter-
scholastic Federation Southern Section) and
Secretary-Elect C. C. Thompson (Nebraska)
came through with flying colors and none
the worse for wear.

Speakers and others who had an active
part in the program included many of the
State Executive Officers and Board of Con-
trol officers or members. In addition, ex-
cellent presentations were made by Dr.
Clarence P. Houston, Vice-President of Tufts
College, Medford, Massachusetts, and newly
elected President of the National Collegiate
Athletic Association; by Dr. Parmer Evdng,
city Superintendent of Schools in Buffalo,
New Fork; and by Dr. Clair Turner of the
National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis.

Program and entertainment details were
ably supervised by committees. Their work
was coordinated by the General Planning
Committee, made up of W. R. Fugitt, Chair-
man, Joseph Devitt, J. Robert Eddy and F.
H. Pierce. All members of the executive
staffs and boards of control of the three
states which served as direct hosts (Maine,
New Hampshire and Massachusetts) and of
the other states in the host section (Con-
necticut, Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey,
New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Ver-
mont and West Virginia) gave valuable as-
sistance. These states made up a fund of
more than $400.00 to provide special features
for the entertainment of the group.

An impressive memorial ceremony for
those who have passed away since the last
annual meeting was ably conducted by Ex-
ecutive Committee member H. F. Keller. A
delightful welcoming pageant was produced

ops, the K.H.S.A.A. staff will move to the
new building early in October. Present
plans call for an "open house" at the K.H.S.
A.A. Building on Saturday afternoon, Oct. 22.

Basketball Tournament Trophies

The 1955 Delegate Assemblv amended
Tournament Rule XV to provide that the
Board of Control be authorized to select,
standardize, and purchase trophies for all
district and regional ba.sketball tournaments,
the cost of the trophies to be borne by the
respective districts and rea-ions. On the pres-
ent Trophv Committee of the Board are
Chairman W. B. Jones. Director Jack Daw-
son, Director K. G. Gillasnie, and Commis-
sioner Theo. A. Sanford. Specifications are
now being written for the trophies, and bids
will be taken bv the committee during the
next few weeks. Firms interested in sub-
mitting bids on the tournament trophies
should write to the Commissioner for infor-
mation.

Basketball Clinics

Charlie Vettiner, veteran K.H.S.A.A.
basketball clinic director, will be in charge
of the 1955-56 rules meetings. Under Associa-
tion rules clinic attendance is required of all
repristered officials.

Coaches and athletic directors are urged
to attend the fortbcominff series of state and
regional clinics. Although the meetings are
held primarilv for the training of officials,
the relationship between officials and coaches
should be improved if both groups attend
the clinics and receive the same interpreta-

tions of the rules.

The dates and sites of the meetings which
will be conducted by Mr. Vettiner are as
follows :

October 2, Louisville Y.M.C.A., 2:00 P. M.

Use of Registered Officials
K.H.S.A.A. By-Law 25 says: "Member
schools shall use registered officials in all
football and basketball games. Failure to
comply with this regulation makes the home
school liable for suspension." The attention
of principals and coaches is called to the lists
of registered football and basketball officials
which appear in this issue of the ATHLETE.
School men should study the current lists to
determine whether or not all officials with
whom contracts have been signed have regis-
tered this fall. Supplementary lists of of-
ficials will appear in subsequent issues of
the magazine. If there is any Question about
registration, the official should be asked to
present his card.

School for Officials

The seventh annual School for Basketball
Officials was held on August 14-15 at the
Phoenix Hotel and the Lafayette High
School gymnasium, Lexington. The School
was directed by Charlie Vettiner.

The sixteen officials and the regions which
they represented were: Rex Alexander,
Region 1 ; Amos Teague, Region 2 ; Larue

Ernie Chattin, Region 16.

Through the cooperation of Coach Ralph
Carlisle, members of the Lafayette High
School basketball team were used in the
demonstration game.

In the first session of the School, held
on the afternoon of August 14, the subject
for discussion was "New Rules Study and
Rules in General." In the evening session,
the subject was "How to Teach Officials
Coming to Your Regional Schools." On the
morning of August 15, a demonstration game
was played at the Lafayette High School
gj^mnasium, with each of the sixteen regional
representatives having an opportunity to
work for a short period of time. In the Mon-
day afternoon session, play situations of the
morning game were analyzed.

The services of the sixteen regional representa-
tives will be available to member schools of the
Kentucky High School Athletic Association through-
out the forthcoming basketball season. These men
will conduct schools, clinics, demonstration games
and assembly programs at the requests of school
administrators and coaches. They will also assist
new officials in becoming registered. It is hoped that
school men will take advantage of this Association
service, which has for its purpose uniformity in
officiating and the teaching of the rules of the game
to all those who can profit by such instruction.

Football Examinations

Part II of the National Federation Football
Examination for Officials will be given in
Kentucky on Monday, October 3. An official
who has been registered for at least one year
prior to the current season is eligible to take
the examination and work for a higher ra-
ting. Officials who hold the "Approved"
rating in football are required to make a
minimum percentage grade of 80 in order to
maintain the rating from year to year. Of-
ficials who hold the "Certefied" rating keep
this rating by attending one or more foot-
ball clinics each year. Eligible officials who
wish to take the test should write to the
State Office.

Delegate Assembly

Article IV, Section 2-b, of the K.H.S.A.A.
Constitution, provides that members to the
Delegate Assembly at the annual meeting

shall be elected by the principals of each
basketball district on ballots distributed by
the Commissioner before October 1 and re-
turned on or before November 15. Delegates
serve for a period of one year, beginning
January 1 immediately following their elec-
tion.

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR SEPTEMBER, 1955

The Flying Dutchman

A lot of things happened in the "School
for Basketball Officials" on August 14 and
15, which you will want to know about.

Probably the most enthusiastic discussions
which have ever come up took place in this
year's school at Lexington. Our new regional
representatives, Ben Topmiller, Amos
Teague, Bob Miller and John Crosthwaite,
added a lot to the value of the school by their
suggestions and assistance.

All officials and coaches over Kentucky
will now be advised that every rule in the
book will be enforced in every section of
Kentucky, especially the one dealing with
coaching from the sideline and verbal abuse
directed toward the officials. It is now man-
datory for every Kentucky official to first
warn a coach who is guilty of sideline
coaching, and then call a technical foul upon
repetition of such action. It is also manda-
tory for all officials to call technical fouls
on coaches for unsportsmanlike conduct of
any kind, and immediately notify the Com-
missioner's office in writing that a technical
foul was called on a certain coach and what
it was for.

There were several questions revolving
about the new rules which will require of-
ficial interpretation from H. V. Porter. At
this writing, Mr. Porter is out of his office
and such interpretation will not be available
until the next issue of the ATHLETE.

When the Dutchman makes his circuit
of Kentucky in October conducting the an-
nual basketball clinics, he will carry with
him a new film on basketball officiating done
in color, which should go far toward enlight-
ening our officials on proper officiating
techniques. In the afternoon clinics, which
are scheduled for 2:00 p.m., it will be neces-
sary to sart one-half hour early, showing
the picture at 1:30 p.m.

Out of this year's School for Basketball
Officials has come this memorandum for
the Kentucky officials: The sixteen regional
official representatives have direct jurisdic-
tion over everything which happens in the
way of officiating in their respective areas.
In the schools which they will conduct, the
word which is passed on must be respected
and followed. Each representative is directly
responsible to the Association Office for see-
ing that all rules and regulations are kept.

The first Com Cob Pipes of our new season
are on their way to Johnny Edelen and John
Saltzman of Bardstown, Kentucky. These
two gentlemen have gotten squarely behind

the Game Guy project and through their ef-
forts much work is being accomplished in
encouraging physically handicapped young
men to overcome those handicaps and have
fun like other young people. It was through
their efforts that Joe Wycoff was recognized
and finally selected as Game Guy of 1954.

MEMORIAL SERVICE

Presented by Leonard T. Havig (North Dakota)

at the York Harbor National Federation Meeting

on June 26, 1955

It is ordained that all must die, for in the
words of the Bible's first letter of Peter, "All
flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man
as the flower of grass. The grass withers,
and the flower thereof falls away."

The lapse of a year reveals that several of
our associates of the National Federation and
of our State Associations have forever laid
down their earthly burdens.

As a token of our appreciation for their
efforts in the Federation and for the esteem
in which they were held in their state or-
ganizations, it is entirely fitting that we
share a few words of final tribute.

Each of these faithful servants gave un-
selfishly of his time for the benefit of youth
in order that their lives might be made more
enjoyable and at the same time be streng-
thened for the game of life. It was not fi-
nancial rewards which motivated their ef-
forts but rather it was a desire to serve their
fellow men. The lessons they taught and the
leadership they exerted are an encourage-
ment to us who carry on to look forward to
new horizons of activity. Working together
in a common cause has made us all brothers
and their deeds have become a part of our
lives. They brought esteem and strength to
the organizations with which they were as-
sociated. I call the roll of our departed com-
panions.

H. R. ADAMS (Hyrum, Utah) was a mem-
ber of the National Federation Executive
Committee from 1938 to 1944 and a respected
member of the Utah High School Association.
He passed away at his home on March 2.

MR. AND MRS. FRED BROUGHER (Dan-
ville, Illinois) attended Federation annual
meetings each year since 1950 and made
many friends in the group. They lost their
lives in a crash of their privately-owned air-
plane near Mt. Vernon, Illinois, on February
27.

C. J. GLUDT (Killdeer, North Dakota) was
a prominent member of the North Dakota
Board of Control. He was a school adminis-
trator for twenty years and was the first

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR SEPTEMBER, 1955

Page Five

President of the Administrator's Association
of North Dakota. He passed away on March
28.

WILLIAM E. KINGSOLVER (Ft. Knox,
Kentucky) has attended a number of Na-
tional Federation meetings. He was a promi-
nent member of the Board of Control of the
Kentucky High School Athletic Association.
He lost his life when he accidentally fell into
an abandoned well on the Ft. Knox firing
range on November 7.

W. E. PARSONS (Roanoke, Virginia) was
a member of the Board of Control of the
Virginia State High School League for many
years. He had the distinction of having been
present and active at thirty consecutive an-
nual meetings of the Virginia League. He
passed away on March 31.

For each of our departed associates we
can apply individually these words of Grant-
land Rice :

I do not know what I shall find on out beyond

the final fight,

I do not know what I shall meet beyond the

last barrage of night ;

Nor do I care — but this I know — if I but

serve within the fold

And play the game — I'll be prepared for all

the endless years may hold.

On by the skyline, faint and vague, in that

Far Country all must know,

No laurel crown of fame may wait beyond

the sunset glow;

But life has given me the chance to train and

serve within the fold,

To meet the test — and be prepared for all

the endless years may hold.

Life gave them the chance, they served,
they met the test and they were prepared
for the endless years. Their memory is a
benediction.

Ticket Survey

Coach Bob Miller of the Newport High
School made recently a survey of football
ticket prices in various parts of the state.
He found a difference between student and
adult prices in most of the school districts
which reported to him.

Seven schools reported a student price of
$1.00 for each of their home games. These
were Bowling Green, Mayfield, Middlesboro,
Owensboro, Owensboro Catholic, Paducah
and Pineville. Charges of 50c were made by
Bardstown, Catlettsburg, Danville, Harlan
and Harlan County schools, Henderson,
Marion, Madisonville, Morganfield, Mt. Sterl-
ing, Murray, Old Kentucky Home, Pikeville

and area schools, Prestonsburg, Providence,
Sturgis, and Winchester. Henry Clay and
Somerset charge students 35c for each of
their home games, Lafayette has a price of
40c, Corbin charges 60 and the student ad-
mission price at most Northern Kentucky
games is 75c. Ashland charges both students
and adults $1.25.

All of the other schools mentioned have
an adult price of $1.00 except Bardstown,
Henderson, Henry Clay, Madisonville, Mar-
ion, Morganfield, Mt. Sterling, Old Kentucky
Home, Providence, Somerset, Sturgis, and
most Northern Kentucky schools. These
have an adult price of 75c.

Although Bowling Green, Mayfield, Owens-
boro, Owensboro Catholic and Paducah
charge students $1.00 at the gate, tickets
bought by students in advance cost only 50c.
Bardstown, most Northern Kentucky schools,
Ashland and Catlettsburg have advance
prices to students of 35c, 35c 40c, and 40c,
respectively. Several schools have season or
student activity tickets which range in price
from $2.40 to $6.50.

State Association Owned Buildings

Editor's Note: This report, based on a survey made by the
K.H.S.A.A., was made by Commissioner Theo. A. Sanford and
Director James L. Cobb at their respective sessions for Execu-
tive Officers and Board of Control members during the York
Harbor meeting of the National Federation.

Forty-seven completed questionnaires concerning
State Association owned buildings were returned by
National Federation members to the offices of the
Kentucky High School Athletic Association. A study
of these questionnaires brings out interesting facts.

Seven Associations now own their own buildings
or are in the process of building construction. These
are California, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Kansas, Ken-
tucky and Pennsylvania. The Florida and Kentucky
buildings are under construction.

Thirty-three State Secretaries indicated that their
Associations had not considered seriously the possi-
bility of purchasing or constructing their own build-
ings. Thi'ee said that building construction had been
considered seriously and two indicated that discus-
sions had been held concerning the matter. Reasons
given by this group for preventing the purchase
of buildings to date were finances, present cheap
rent, present location preferable, and inability to
find suitable location to date.

Thirty-two Executive Secretaries stated that there
was little possibility of their Associations purchas-
ing or constructing headquarters office buildings at
any time within the near future. Sixteen indicated
that they were presently housed in quarters owned
by the state, a teachers' group, or a similar organi-
zation. Fifteen of this group said that the arrange-
ments were satisfactory. Two qualified this by add-
ing "so far", and two others said that they were
in crowded quarters.

Eleven Associations pay no rent for their offices.
The highest rent paid is $6,800.00 per year (Illinois).
The number of persons employed in the state office
ranges from one part-time worker to thirteen (Iowa).

Following are a few other facts gleaned from the
survey:

Early Season Football Questions

Editor's Note: These rulings do not set aside or
modify any rule. They are interpretations on some
of the early season situations which have been
presented.

1. Play: What is the relation of a foul to first
touching of a kick by K?

Ruling: A few fundamentals make this relation-
ship clear. (1) First touching of a kick by K is not a
foul but is similar to any other legal act. (2) Any
foul at any time during the down causes the first
touching of a kick by K to be ignored provided the
penalty for the foul is accepted. (3) Any foul by
R which occurs after R has touched the kick causes
the first touching of the kick by K to be ignored
even when penalty for the foul is declined. This
item 3 is the only circumstance in which the re-
lationship of first touching to a foul is slightly dif-
ferent from that of other legal acts.

2. Play: Scrimmage-kick by Kl comes down on R's
20 where it is first touched by K2, after which it is
muffed by K3 on R's 25, and finally recovered by
K4 on R's 15. Is there more than one spot of "first
touching" ?

Ruling: There are three spots of first touching.
In the case cited, R would choose to take the ball
on their 25.

3. Play: Have any errors or omissions been dis-
covered in the 1955 ruleh publications?

Ruling: The following corrections should be made.
IN THE RULES BOOK: In the last sentence of
1-5-1, "of" should be changed to "or." Also, in the
6th line of 10-5-2. "opponent's" should be inserted
after "their."

4. Play: Is the rule which specifies that a foul
by B during a try is penalized on the kick-off an
exception to the fundamental that the penalty for
any single foul may be declined?

Ruling. No. Such penalty may be declined. How-
ever, the advantage of acceptance is so obvious that
the Referee does not ask the Captain to choose. If
the Captain should desire to decline, he must take
the initiative. Note that the last sentence of 8-3-4
now uses the word "measurement" instead of the
former "enforced." If there is any measurement, it
is from the succeeding spot, i.e., from spot where
the kick-off would have been made if there had been
no foul.

5. Play: What is the difference between the terms
"enforced", "administered", "inflicted", "assessed"
and "measured", as applied to penalties?

Ruling: At one time, these different terms were
used in an attempt to avoid confusion as to whether
the statement applied to an accepted penalty or to
a declined penalty or to both. Under the current
code, any penalty for a single foul may be accepted
or declined and the only penalties are loss of dis-
tance. Under these circumstances, there should be
no difficulty regarding any statement about penal-
ties. In general, since all penalties are loss of dis-

tance, the term "measurement" seems to be the most
descriptive.

6. Play: Forward pass infractions once included
"loss of down" with the penalty statement. It now
refers to the fact that "the down counts." What is
the reason for the change in method of treatment?

Ruling: The use of the term "loss of down" was
never accurate although there was some excuse for
the statement in the years when a forward pass
incompletion was considered a foul. In those days,
the foul for incompletion had a penalty of "loss of
down." At present, an incompletion is not a foul.
The down counts the same as it counts for any other
completed play. If there is a down in which there is
a forward pass infraction, the down counts, regard-
less of whether the penalty for the infraction is
accepted or declined. Procedure is covered in Rule
5 which outlines all of the situations in which the
number of the down is affected. The counting of the
dovm is not a part of the penalty since the down
also counts in many cases where there is no penalty.
All coverage for situations which involve the num-
ber of the down are now covered in Rule 5 and there
is no good purpose served by reference to it in the
section which covers foi-ward pass infractions. For
convenience, it has been thought desirable to retain
a statement about the matter in the foi-ward pass
section. This may be useful during the transition
period but is not actually needed since the entire
matter is now covered in Rule 5.

7. Play: During 4th down, there is a legal forward
pass by Al. A2 illegally interferes with Bl beyond
the line. The pass is batted backward and is caught
by A3 behind the line. Does the down count?

Ruling. The down counts regardless of whether
the penalty for interference is accepted or declined.
If declined, a new series is awarded B at spot where
ball becomes dead. If accepted, a new series is
awarded B 15 yards behind the previous spot.

8. Play: 4th on the 50. A legal forward pass by Al
is intercepted by Bl and advanced to A's 40 where
fumble by Bl is recovered by A2. In an attempted
advance, A2 throws an illegal foi-ward pass from
his 40 and this illegal forward pass touches the
ground. What is the number of the next down ?

Ruling: Since the foul occurred after a change of
team possession, a new series is awarded, regard-
less of whether the penalty for the foul is accepted
or declined. If declined, it is 1st and 10 for A from
his 40. If accepted, it is 1st and 10 for A on their
35.

9. Play: Legal fonvard pass by Al is intercepted
by Bl. In attempting to advance Bl throws illegal
pass which strikes the ground. What is the distance
to be gained after the loss of 5 yards is assessed?

Ruling: It is 1st and 10 for B.

10. Play: 2nd and 10 on the 50. Al advances to
B's 30 where he throws an illegal forward pass

Henrietta Avent, physical education director,
was in charge of the clinic, which had as its
theme "How to lead yells and how to prac-
tice good sportsmanshiD in cheerleading."

Corrections
FOOTBALL RULES BOOK

Rule 1-5-1 : In the 7th line, change "of" to
"or."

Rule 10-5-2: In the 6th line, insert "op-
ponents" after "their." This is the only cor-
rection needed if it is assumed that the ante-
cedent of "their" in the last clause is the
team which committed the foul.

FOOTBALL CASE BOOK

Play 247: In the 2nd line, substitute
"reaching" for "reading."

Play 303-A: The 2nd foul, as outlined, is
not part of a double foul since penalty for the
offside was automatically accepted or declin-
ed as soon as ball became dead.

Play 427: Ruling is correct as printed if
it is assumed that the situation is not com-
plicated by a score which results in automatic
acceptance or declination of the offside pen-
alty.

FOOTBALL MEETING FOLDER

Correct answer to item (d) of question 3
is "no." For a foul during a loose ball, spot
of enforcement is the previous spot.

FOOTBALL PLAYER HANDBOOK

Ruling for 2nd play on Page 14 is correct,
provided touching by ineligible A2 was in or
behind the neutral zone.

In first line of question 6 on Page 36, it is
assumed that the antecedent of "it" is the
"muff." On this assumption, the key is cor-
rect.

Key on Page 52: Answer to question 16
on Page 9 is inadvertently omitted. Correct
answer is "yes."

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR OCTOBER, 1955

The Flying Dutchman

With the October basketball clinics in the
offing, a special effort must be exerted in
all parts of Kentucky to get all of our coaches
to attend. It is lamentable that in past years
only a few coaches have taken part with the
officials in studying and understanding the
rules in the state-wide clinics.

If our coaches attend this season's ses-
sions, it is a safe assumption that there will
be fewer differerxes of opinion and a closer
unity between the men who must make the
decisions and those who teach the boys.
While the Dutchman will try in the follow-
ing paragraphs to explain the new rule
written to prevent stalling by the dribbler,
we all know that various questions will arise
which can only be answered effectively in
the clinics themselves.

That new rule states that "Held ball may
occur when a closely guarded dribbler con-
trols the ball in the front court in an
OBVIOUS attempt to consume time or to
tantalize an opponent." Because we had a lot
of trouble with this rule in our School for
Officials in August, the Dutchman made a
trip to Chicago to get it thoroughly ironed
out with H. V. Porter, "Mr. Interpreter for
the Nation," and here's the "dope."

The only area in which a dribbler may
have a 5-second held ball called on him, if
he cannot elude a close guard, is between the
mid-court dividing line and an imaginary line
drawn through the nearest point of the foul
circle in his team's front court.

This area is not considered to be a reason-
able scoring area so the 5-second count is on
until the dribbler can place enough distance
between him and his guard that the official
no longer considers him to be closely guard-
ed. Then, when he is again under close
guard, a new 5-second count begins.

In his team's front court in the area from
the imaginary line through the point men-
tioned on the foul circle to the end line a
dribbler is never to have the 5-second count
put on him unless he uses boundary lines to
force his opponent to go out of bounds to
reach the bouncing ball.

After this lengthy written discourse on
this one "toughie" you can see why our
coaches just must join our officials in this
season's clinic to get straight on this inter-
pretation.

Now let's look at some other interpreta-
tions which you won't find in either your
rule or case book but which are now official
after my meeting with H. V. Porter:

1. PLAY: Al shoots at mid-court, travels,
and the ball goes in the basket. Is the ball
]uit in play at mid-court by Team R or out-
of-bounds under the basket?

RULING : Point nearest the traveling.

2. PLAY: Al, out-of-tounds behind his
backboard, hits the back of board on throw-
in. The ball rebounds to him and he gets it
in play legally before five seconds are up.
Is this 0. K.?

RULING: Legal.

3. PLAY: Same situation except ball was
thrown out-of-bounds across the court with-
out touching another player.

RULING : Same as above except that this
would nearly always consume 5 seconds.

4. PLAY: On jump ball between Al and
Bl, A2 is in the cylinder simultaneously with
the tapping of the ball. Is this a violation?

RULING : No. To be a violation, the entry
must be "before" the tap.

5. PLAY: Al stalls for four seconds by
dribbling. He then brings his dribble to an
end and feints a pass toward scoring area
but does not pass. Does the five second count
continue or does the attempt to pass stop
the count?

RULING : The five second count continues.

6. PLAY: On jump ball, A2 is in the cylin-
der too soon. Players do not hear the whistle
and play continues with the timer erroneous-
ly starting the clock. Should the officials
order the clock to be set back?

RULING : Under ordinary circumstances,
the lesser of several evils is to assume that
no correction can be made. However, in
certain cases where, with only a few seconds
remaining the error is especially significant,
the referee would have authority to arbi-
trarily state that a given number of seconds
remain to be played. This would be done
only in extreme cases where it is obvious
that the outcome of the game may be deter-
mined by the error.

7. PLAY: Define close guarding of a
player.

RULING : A guard must be in a customary
guarding stance and within reaching dis-
tance of his opponent. It must be remem-
bered that a guard may be within reaching
distance even though his hands during his
adopted stance would not reach his oppon-
ent until he lunged forward to g:in advant-
age of his full stretch. Officials will give the
guard full advantage of his stretch in meet-
ing the requirement of reaching distance.

8. PLAY: Al and Bl get into a fight
during a live ball or during a dead ball.
How many foul shots are awarded?

Page Eight

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR OCTOBER, 1955

RULING : If dui'ing a live ball the players
are disqualified and their substitutes shoot
one foul shot each ; but if during a dead ball
their substitutes get two foul shots each
since flagrant technical fouls draw two free
throws under the new rules.

Now we leave rules, to remind everybody
of the three purposes of the Flying Dutch-
man activities: (1) To recognize an indivi-
dual rendering unselfish service to others
with the Corn Cob Pipe or Honor award,
which has something new added this year
in that the tiny pipe adorns the neck of a
beautiful Kentucky Thoroughbred ; (2) to
recognize physically handicapped athletes
who show determination by their participa-
tion in sports; (3) to salute communities go-
ing out of their way to promote good sports-
manship and good neighbor practices by the
presentation of the Abou Ben Adhem certi-
ficate.

Mail your recommendations to the Flying
Dutchman, Armory Building, Louisville 2,
Kentucky.

And now for the Corn Cob Pipe of Honor
winner for October. The "little stinker" is
on its way to Buss Kirchdorfer of Shively
who has been named MR. RECREATION OF
KENTUCKY FOR 1955 for his outstanding
service to young people through his volun-
teer work in setting up youth centers, parks,
trips, and teams ; and for his invaluable as-
sistance, which helped make the Youth Am-
bassador of Good Will Flight to Cuba this
summer possible.

You'll be surprised how much real pleasure
you'll get yourself from seeing people or
communities you recommend for recognition
receive the honor. It will be more fun when
you see how much even small recognition
means to them.

Here and There

MORE OR LESS PERSONAL : The many
friends of Secretary LaFayette Golden (Flor-
ida) regret that illness took him out of the
office for several weeks during August.
Everyone connected with the Federation
hopes that the heart condition will soon be
corrected.

Stephen Epler, originator of 6-man foot-
ball, has been made President of Reedley
College at Reedley, California.

A new baseball motion picture to be titled
"Better Baseball" has been authorized. The
scenes will be set up in Florida during April
and the new picture will be available for the
school year 1956-57. Full cooperation has
been promised by Professional Baseball of-
ficers and by College Baseball authorities.
The picture will probably be made in the vic-
inity of St. Petersburg and some of the
scenes will show widely known Professional
players. The major portion of the demonstra-
tions will be by high school players.

SAFETY DEVICES: The emphasis which
has been given to the need for wider use of
some type of mouth or face protector has
resulted in a great increase in number of
players which will be equipped with such
device during the 1955 season. Several facts
have been revealed by recent studies. More
than half of all listed injuries in football
have been to the mouth or face. Many of
these have been broken or cracked teeth.
Dental reports indicate that for each listed
tooth injury, there are probably several
other tooth injuries which are not revealed
unless the mouth is X-rayed. These delayed
discovery injuries may be chipped enamel or
a tooth crack which is revealed at a later
date. It is obvious that some type of mouth
protector is desirable. The most commonly
used type of protector is a face mask. Such
mask will protect the teeth from a frontal
blow but it is not claimed that it will protect
them when there is a blow on the chin or
the top of the head. To give protection
against such blows, some type of elastic ma-
terial must be used between the upper and
lower teeth. There are three commonly used
types of mouth protector. One type fits over
the upper teeth through use of a type of
dental wax which insures a proper fit. The
second is a hinged rubber tooth guard which
fits over both the upper and lower teeth.
The hinge in the back of the mouth is de-
signed to keep the device in proper position.
A third type is held between the front teeth
and extends over the lips. This type is usually
fastened to the chin strap so that it can be

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR OCTOBER, 1955

Page Nine

removed during the period between downs.

Opinions differ as to which is least un-
comfortable in the mouth and as to which
is most effective in giving full protection.
The type of mouth guard which is fitted
through use of dental wax has been in use
long enough to provide some interesting
data. Last season, one manufacturer of this
type of guard issued an insurance policy
with each guard. This policy guaranteed to
pay the dental bill for any injury which
might occur while the boy is wearing the
guard. For the 20,000 players who were
equipped in this manner, there was only one
claim for injury and the circumstances con-
cerning this were such as to leave some
question as to whether the guard was ac-
tually in place at the time of the injury.

Progress continues to be made toward the
adequate padding of braces and shoulder pro-
tectors. Several manufacturers have, through
their research departments, produced a type
of soft material which appears to be durable
and which has the quality of spreading the
effects of a shock. In some cases shoulder
pads and thigh pads are now covered with a
thick layer of such material so that it cush-
ions the shock for the wearer and also for
the player who is blocked or tackled.

Progress has also been made in connection
with the development of shoe cleats which
are less dangerous than those used in the
past. The developments include considerable
progress in the making of a type of cleat
which does not develop cutting edges and
also a type which can be molded into the sole
of the shoe. Hundreds of pairs of such shoes
will be used during the current season and
data secured from their use should give valu-
able information as to whether there are
real advantages in use of such cleats which
have no metal posts and, consequently, have
no tendency to chip or crack in such a way
as to expose sharp metal spikes.

A survey which was made at the end of
last season by the Ohio Athletic Association
reveals that of the 24,000 players included
in the survey, 2500 wore some type of face
protector. Among the Ohio coaches who were
included in the survey, 106 favored making
the wearing of such protectors mandatory
and 355 did not favor mandatory use.

BASKETBALL INTEREST: The United
States has more reasonably good school
basketball courts than any other country in
the world. However, some of the other coun-
tries have individual courts which surpass
any in the United States. A recent basket-
ball tournament was held in Rio deJaneiro in

a stadium which seats 35,000 and which has
a type of roof suspension which eliminates
obstructing posts. For this and related tour-
naments, a capacity crowd observed the
games.

OLYMPIC DAY: The United States Con-
gress has designated the third week in Octo-
ber as "Olympic Week" and Saturday, Octo-
ber 22, as "Olympic Day." Because of an
established policy of opposition to the use
of high school teams in charity or fund rais-
ing games, it is not recommended that pro-
ceeds from school games be used for any
purpose other than for helping to finance
the school athetic program. However, this
policy does not deter schools from arranging
for collection of voluntary contributions for
the Olympics or for any other good cause.
Such collections may be sent to any state
chairman of the Olympic Committee. In case
of doubt, contact may be made with Execu-
tive Director J. Lyman Bingham at the
Biltmore Hotel in New York City.

Regardless of viewpoints concerning the
relative merits of Olympic values and of
different methods of financing Olympic ac-
tivities, those trained in athletic procedures
are confident that the program is currently
in excellent hands. The roster of officers in-
cludes many of the most highly respected
men in the world of sports.

THE BASKETBALL SIGNAL ILLUS-
TRATIONS as used on the back cover of the
Basketball Case Book were made by Mal-
colm Hancock of Great Falls, Montana. His
friends will recall that his artistic talent
became apparent during his stay in the hos-
pital following his accident in Wisconsin.
Malcolm's recovery has been as rapid as
could be expected after such a serious fall
but he is still under a doctor's care and uses
special equipment in moving about. He is
completing his high school course and is ex-
ercising his artistic talent in a ceramics
project and in illustrative work for the high
school yearbook and the Great Falls news-
paper.

FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME : The New
Jersey State Association is cooperating in
the Football Hall of Fame project to the ex-
tent of suggesting to member schools that
they arrange for receiving voluntary dona-
tions at one of their football games.

CANADA: New Brunswick has recently
adopted a limitation on length of season for
each of the major sports. Member schools
are expected to refrain from scheduling any
game before or after the listed season limits,

FOOTBALL QUESTIONS

(Continued from Page One)

which is s'l'ounded. Does the down fount if B accepts
01' declines the penalty?

Ruling: In either case, the down counts but the
counting of the down has no significance since a
new series is awarded as soon as acceptance or de-
clination of the penalty leaves the ball in A's
possession in advance of the linc-to-gain.

11. Play: Would there be advantage in removing
the provision that the down counts when penalty for
a forward pass infraction is accepted ?

Ruling: A good case might be made for such
removal. At one time, the forward pass was gov-
erned by a set of rules which were quite different
from those which apply to other situations. Under
the current method of handling the matter, all
general penalty rules apply to the forward pass.
It is possible that provisions concerning the num-
ber of down could also be made to apply to forward
pass infractions without creating- inequitable situa-
tions. The matter deserves further study.

12. Play: During try-for-point, Bl is offside and
Al is charged with illegal piling on after ball becomes
dead and the kick is successful. Does the point count
and what is the procedure ?

Ruling: The point counts. A foul by B during a
try-for-point is always accepted since the loss of
distance is measured on the next kick-off when-
ever the try is successful. The foul by A, therefore,
occurred after the automatic acceptance. Both dis-
tances are enforced but in actual practice the
Referee will subtract the lesser distance from the
greater and measure the difference.

13. Play: Has the change in the double and
multiple foul rules introduced a new situation in
which a Referee might find it necessary to step off
a penalty in one direction and then step off another
penalty in the other direction ?

Ruling: There has always been the possibility of
such a situation. Fortunately, the occasion seldom
arises. The change in the double and multiple foul
rule slightly increases the chance for such an oc-
currence. In practically all cases, the Official will
merely subtract one distance from the other.

14. Play: Does the "short free-kick" differ from
other fouls connected with a kick ?

Ruling: There is no difference in administration
unless it is in the fact that the act of kicking the ball
erratically is considered the foul and it cannot be de-
termined whether the act is a foul until the down has
ended. This is significant only in the infrequent case
where a free-kick by Kl bounces backward and be-
comes dead behind the free-kick line when recovered
by K2. Since the erratic kick is considered the foul,
spot of the foul is the same as spot of the kick,
rather than where the kick is recovered by K2.

15. Play: Is a snapper permitted to move a foot
backward at the same time he snaps the ball ?

Ruling: The rights of the snapper in this connec-
tion are the same as for any other player of A.
Any player may move as soon as the ball is moved
to start the snap. In past years, there were additional
restrictions on the snapper. This was based on the
belief that the force applied to the ball should come
entirely from the hand movement rather than from
the movement of the body. In the current game, it
is not practical to require the snapper to keep his
body stationary after the opponent has started his
change.

16. Play: Center takes one step backward as he

snaps ball and hands off to a back. Is this legal
under the new wording of Rule 7-2-7 ?

Ruling: If the snap is between the feet and the
motion is a quick "swipe" this can be a legal mo-
tion. If the snap is outside the feet and with a turn
of the body, it is doubtful whether the snap can
be considered a quick "swipe" and since it is "bor-
derline", it is recommended that it be prohibited
until such time as controlled experimentation might
prove that it can do no harm.

17. Play: What changes in officiating signals
have been authorized?

Ruling: The illustrations on page 81 of the Foot-
ball Rules Book show all authorized signals. A
complete list of penalties on page 61 indicates the
number of the signal which should be used for any
infraction. The new illustrations are primarily for
better classification of the signals and to give com-
plete coverage as to which signals should be used
for certain infractions which were not illustrated in
past years. About the only significant difference
from last year is in the use of one sig'nal for any
type of illegal holding or illegal use of hand or arm.
Since the Official always points to the team which
is charged with the holding and since the distance
penalty is now the same for either offensive or de-
fensive holding, it is desirable to use one signal,
rather than one for offensive holding and one for
defensive holding. The chopping of the wrist of the
left hand with the open right hand is the signal
which should be used for these acts.

The signal plate has a few numbers missing.
The reason for this is that the numbers for the
different penalties are kept the same as those used
in the Collegiate Code. Because the Federation Code
has no foul which results in loss of ball and because
there is no "free ball", some of the signals used
for the Collegiate Code are not necessary in admin-
istering the Federation Code.

18. Play: What is the significance of the changed
wording in Section 1 of Rule 10 concerning en-
foi'cement of penalty ?

Ruling: In past years, coverage for the procedure
in the administering of penalties has never been
adequate. There was no authority for the Official
to assume that a penalty is automatically declined
or accepted, even in the most obvious cases. Also,
there was no adequate coverage to indicate the sig-
nificance of cei-tain types of declination. It was im-
plied that when a penalty is declined, procedure is
the same as if the foul had not occurred. This im-
plication was not entirely accurate. An illustration
is the illegal forward pass. Even when the distance
penalty is declined, the procedure is not the same
as if the illegal pass had not been thrown. The new
wording is intended to be in harmony with pro-
cedures in the current game.

19. Play: Dui-ing a try-for-point, Bl is offside and
the try is: (a) successful; or (b) not successful. In
either case, B2 commits an unsportsmanlike foul
after the try has ended. Do the fouls by Bl and B2
constitute a multiple foul so that A has a choice?

Ruling: It is not a multiple foul in either (a) or
(b). In (a), the penalties of loss of 5 and loss of
15 are added and enforced on the succeeding kick-
off. In (b), penalty for the offside by Bl is measur-
ed, after which the try is attempted again. The 15-
yard penalty for the foul by B2 is then enforced on
the succeeding kick-off.

20. Play: Have any changes in the field markings
been authorized?

Ruling: The new diagram on page 4 suggests

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR OCTOBER, 1955

Page Eleven

markers at each end of each inbounds line. The pur-
pose is to aid the Official in case the hash marks
are erased by snow or mud. Also, an engineer has
suggested that it would aid those who follow a
game by television if the hash marks were to ap-
pear only on that side of each yardline which is
away from the 50 yardline and toward the nearer
goal line.

21. Play: Under second paragraph of 5-3-2, how
is ball placed when a new series in awarded: (a)
after a touchback; or (b) after a 4th down forward
pass is incomplete ?

Ruling: No specific coverage is given. In (a),
the ball should be placed with its foremost point
on the 20 so that the line-to-gain is the 30. In (b),
when possession changes, the ball remains in the
same position as at the start of the down. The fore-
most point of the ball becomes the rear point when
the direction' of the offense is changed.

22. Play: 3rd on the 50. Runner Al advances to
B's 30 where he throws an illegal fonvard pass.
The illegal pass is muffed toward the 50 where it
is caught by A2. A2 is downed on his 40. If B de-
clines the penalty for the illegal foi-ward pass, may
they choose to have it 4th down for A on their 40 ?

Ruling: No. Since the down did not end with the
ball in possession of B, it would be A's ball at spot
of the illegal pass if B declines the 5-yard penalty.

Comment: A good case could be made for giving
B the choice of having the ball put in play at the
spot where it becomes dead. However, an exception
would have to be made for an illegal forward pass
which is incomplete. In such case, the ball might
become dead through striking the ground at some
distance from the spot of the illegal pass. The situa-
tion outlined in this play is such a i-emote possibility
that it has not been thought desirable to provide
the more complicated coverage. As far as equity is
concerned, present coverage is in harmony with the
tendency to permit a team to retain distance which
has been legally gained before the throwing of the
illegal pass.

23. Play. Doesn't the first sentence of 10-5-2 "an
illegal forward pass from the end zone is a safety"
conflict with Play 4 of 8-5-2? The ruling states
"Safety whether penalty is accepted or declined."
Can this be declined?

Ruling: The penalty can be declined but it is still
a safety because the play leaves the ball behind
the goal line. The fii-st sentence of 10-5-2 covers
only the case when penalty is accepted. 8-5-2c
covers when declined.

24. Play: Does fair catch interference cease after
Rl touches or bobbles the kick but does not com-
plete catch?

Ruling: Yes. However, a fair catch may still be
made.

25. Play: Doesn't the ruling in Case Book No. 143
(b) "... point where it crossed plane of sideline"
conflict with 2-19-2 "... ball touches anything
which is on or outside a sideline or endline" ?

Ruling: There is no conflict. Ball becomes dead
when it touches but it is put in play where it
crossed sideline. A kick might touch 20 yards away
from where it crossed plane.

26. Play: 3rd on A's 10. Al receives the snap
near his goal line, advcnces to his 5 and throws an
illegal foi-ward pass which is caught by A2. A2
moves backward and is downed in his end zone.
May B decline the penalty for the illegal foi-ward
pass and choose a safety?

Ruling: No. Since the down did not end with ball

in possession of B, the ball is returned to spot of
the illegal pass if the 5-yard penalty is declined.

Comment: See Play 22 above for comment con-
cerning present coverage.

27. Play: May a school use colored streamers on
the goal post or the crossbar?

Ruling: The rules do not mention this. It is fairly
common practice for schools to use colored crepe
paper or bunting on the goal posts. Quite often these
are in the colors of the two contesting schools. Use
of such material on the crossbar might disconcert
a kicker and it is recommended that it be kept free
from any decorations, either painted or through
wrapping.

28. Play: On a dive play, quarter-back Al hands
the ball foi^ward to a half-back who is near the line
of scrimmage when the hand-off occurs. Is this
illegal forward handing? Also, if there is a fumble,
may the ball be advanced by any player or is it
an illegal forward pass ?

Ruling: If the hand-off is actually made, the
Official must determine whether the exchange was
made behind the line of scrimmage or in advance of
it. In most cases, it will probably be behind the
line. If so, such hand-off is legal. If there should
be a fumble, it is ruled the same as for any fumble.
It is assumed that the dropping of the ball is
accidental. Consequently, it could not be considered
a forward pass.

29. Play: The Cleveland Browns and other teams
often split their line after the quarter-back has
started his count. Is this legal ? Also, if there is a
variation in the counting rhythm in situations of
this kind to permit the splitting of the line for
better blocking positions, should this be ruled a
false start?

Ruling: There is nothing illegal about linemen
changing their postions provided all players come
to a complete stop for at least one second after they
make the change and provided the movement to a
new position is not a quick start which simulates
action at the snap. There is no good reason why
this move cannot be accomplished by a somewhat
leisurely pulling out of the first position unless the
primary purpose in making the move is to cause
the Defense to think that the ball is going to be
snapped. The changing of the rhythm for the count
is not, in itself, illeg-al. There may be a legitimate
reason for changing the rhythm. However, if it is
coupled with some quick charging motion by a
player of A, it is a suspicious circumstance which
will justify having the Official call it a false start.
If the linemen plan to move into a new position,
they ought to make a special effort to make the
initial movement such that it does not resemble the
quick charging motion which accompanies the
actual snap.

It must be admitted that some judgment is
necessary on the part of the Official. His judgment
will be based on the type of movement with which
the change in position is made.

30. Play: Since there has been a change in the
rules concerning the ignoring of first touching of a
kick when there is a foul by R after the kick has
been touched, could the last clause of Rule 10-5-2
be eliminated?

Ruling: From a practical standpoint, it could
probably be eliminated. However, if it were elimi-
nated, there would be no answer to the question
as to what the result would be if A should accept
the penalty in a case where B commits holding or
some similar foul while Al is running for a touch-

down. While there is no practical reason why A
would desire to accept such a penalty, the rules
give him the right to accept it. If the last clause
of 10-5-2 were removed, thei-e would be nothing to
indicate the procedure if he did. Retention of the
clause, if justified at all, is on the basis of desire
to have complete coverage for cases which should
not happen, but might.

31. Play: Over the past several years, there has
been a progressive movement in the direction of
ignoring first touching of a kick if R commits a
foul. Are there possibilities for further movement in
this direction ?

Ruling: The first step in this direction was taken
several years ago when it was decided to ignore
the first touching if there is a foul by R after R
has had possession of the kick. The second step
was to advance the dividing line to the time the
kick is touched by R. If there should be further
movement in this direction, the next step would be
to ignore first touching in any case where R com-
mits a foul after the first touching by K. A more
extreme step would be to provide that if R com-
mits a foul any time during or just prior to the
down, any first touching will be ignored. Both of
these provisions may receive some considei'ation by
the National Football Committee. The game ad-
ministration committee will study the possible ad-
vantages and disadvantages of each of these sug-
gested steps.

32. Play: 2nd and 5 on B's 1-yardline. Bl is off-
side. After enforcement of the 1/2-yard penalty, is
a new series awarded to A ?

Ruling. No. If this were in the field of play, the
penalty of 5 yards would carry the ball to the line-
to-gain, but in the case cited, the goal line is the
line-to-gain and the penalty does not carry the ball
to that point.

33. Play: In the following formations, which
players are eligible to receive a forward hand-off
without turning?

(a) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
0x000

(b) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
0x00000

Ruling: In (a) 1 and 7. In (b) and (c) only 7
may receive a forward hand-off without turning.
Any other lineman may receive such hand-off by
properly turning and being one yard back.

34. Play: Federation Rule 10-1 recognizes the
right of the Referee to consider a penalty as being
automatically accepted or declined in certain ob-
vious situations. Does this mean that a Captain can-
not accept or decline in these situations?

Ruling: A Captain may always accept or decline
a penalty but in certain situations he must take
the initiative if his desires are different from those
anticipated by the Referee. At one time, it was
considered good officiating practice by the Referee
to call the Captains together in all cases even though
the advantage of accepting or declining might be
obvious. This seems to be a waste of time, especially
since the adoption of the 3 and 1 system of penalty
enforcement eliminates nearly all cases where it is
necessary for a team to decline a penalty. The fol-
lowing is an illustration: Runner Al advances 10
.yards to the 50 and Bl holds during the run. Since
A retains the distance gained and is awarded an
additional 15 yards for the foul, it would be an

absurdity to ask the offended Captain whether he
desires to accept the penalty. Currently, it is com-
mon practice for the Referee to omit the time con-
suming procedure of calling the Captains together
in a situation of this kind.

35. Play: Al receives snap in his end zone and
throws an illegal forward pass. What happens if
Bl intercepts and declines ? Also, is this in conflict
with the last clause of 8-5-2-c?

Ruling: There is no conflict. The key to the last
clause of 8-5-2-c is "to leave him in possession at
spot of illegal pass." The only illegal foi-ward pass
which could do this would be an incomplete illegal
pass, i.e., one which is intentionally thrown to the
ground. In that case, it would be impossible for B
to intercept. The only other possibility of an illegal
forward pass from the passer's end zone is an illegal
forward pass after there have been two changes of
team possession. In this infrequent case, B might
intercept and score a touchdown. Such a situation is
not included in the last clause of 8-5-2-c because,
by Rule 7-5-4, the ball is not returned to the spot
of the illegal pass if B chooses to keep it where it
becomes dead in their possession.

36. Play: Right end Al goes to a position near the
line of scrimmage but he intentionally faces the
wrong direction so he is not "on the line." Just be-
fore the snap, he starts in motion backward and is
1 or 2 yards behind the line at the snap. Is this an
illegal position?

Ruling: Not if the current rule is interpreted
literally. Since Al was not "on the line", his move-
ment to a new position is not a shift. Also, he is
not required to be 5 yards behind the line when the
snap is made. Sentiment concerning whether this
should be prohibited differs. Some contend that
when Al is clearly not on the line, this is sufficient
warning to the Defense that he may become the
man in motion. If his position is such that there
might be some doubt as to whether he is actually
"on the line," he must gamble on the Official not
noticing that he has deliberately avoided being on
the line. Under these circumstances, the possible
advantage to Al may be more imagined than real.
Others are of the opinion that the rule should be
interpreted so that any player who takes a position
within reasonable distance of the line of scrimmage
should be considered "on the line" as far as ad-
ministration of the shift and man in motion rules
are concerned.

Comment: Further study of the two viewpoints
is urged. If restriction is attempted, it will be nec-
essary to set up guides as for the meaning of "near
the line." Reports should be made to the State Of-
fice so that they may be relayed to the National
Federation Football Committee.

37. Play: When and where will matters pertain-
ing to safety equipment and to the rules for the
1956 season be considered ?

Ruling: A meeting with equipment manufactuiers
is scheduled for Chicago on Monday, December 19.
Representatives of the Safety and Equipment Com-
mittees of the National Federation Football Com-
mittee will be present. The rules for 1956 will be
made at the meeting of the Federation Football
Committee to be held in Nashville, Tennessee on
Thursday and Friday, January 5 and (!, 1956. Foot-
ball questionnaires will be distributed during Nov-
ember to provide opportunity for everyone to in-
dicate sentiment and to make suggestions.

NEW HOME OF THE K. H. S. A. A.

On October 22 an "open house" was held in the new K.H.S.A.A. build-
ing-, located at 763 Rose Street, Lexington, to which school administrators,
coaches, officials, and press-radio-television representatives were invited.

New Building Represents Dream Come True

The new K. H. S. A. A. Building which was in-
spected by school men, officials, and the public on
October 22 represents a dream come true for Board
of Conti-ol members and the Association staff.
Over a long- period of time, while the annual re-
ceipts of the Association were considerably in
excess of the annual disbursements, the funds were
allowed to accumulate, it being thought that the
reserve would finally be enough to pay for building
one of the finest association headquarters buildings
in America. The Board of Control has done just
that.

Members of tTie Building Committee, who were
charged by the Board of Control with the responsi-
bility of planning the building and supervising its
construction, were Chairman James L. Cobb (for-
mer Director whose term on the Board expired on
June 30, 195.5). Director W. B. Jones, Director Jack
Dawson, and Commissioner Theo. A. Sanford. The
full membershin of the Board decided upon the
stvle of the buildinir, anprovod the final plans and
snecifications, and let the contract with the builder.
Other school men who wei-e on the Board when
the deci.sion to construct the building was made
were Carlos Oakley (former President, whose term
ex-oired on Ju"e 30. 1955). Russell Williamson (for-
i"e>- Vice-President, now President of the K. H. S.
A. A.), Roy G. Eversole (former Director, currently

Vice-President of the Association), Director Louis
Litchfield, and Director W. H. Crowdus.

Mr. Cobb gave his final report as chairman of
the Building Committee at a Board of Control
meeting- held on the morning of October 22. The
Board of Conti'ol accepted the report and discharged
the committee after commending its members for
their work. Mr. Cobb reported that the new head-
quaters building- had been constructed at a cost of
$72,000.00. The Board had paid $18,000.00 for the
lot on which the building is located. Approximately
$4,000.00 had been spent for new equipment after
deducting for some of the old equipment which
was traded in.

The building is one story and of modern design.
It has a full basement. On the main floor are the
Board of Control meeting room, a foyer or lobby,
a general office, offices for the Commissioner and
Assistant Commissioner, and a workroom. There
are five rooms in the basement, including a small
kitchen and the boiler room. One of the larger
rooms is finished. The other rooms will be used
mostly for storage. The building has a hot water
heating system and air conditioning.

All school men, officials, and other interested
persons, who have not found it possible to inspect
the new building as yet, are urged to pay a visit
to the Association headquarters at the first oppor-
tunity.

Early Season Basketball Questions — Installment 1

Editor's Note: These rulings do not set aside or modify any covercd in the curreiit basketball pubHca-

of the early season j . o

tions :

Ruling: BASKETBALL CASE BOOK: In
second line of Play 381 "but" should be sub-
stituted for "out." BASKETBALL MEET-
ING FOLDER: In Play 1 on page 5, omit
last sentence of ruling. See Play 330 in the
Case Book for correct procedure. In Play 18
on Page 9, reverse Al and Bl in second line.
In Key on page 11, change second answer to
Question 7 from "yes" to "no." In the for-
mulae on point values on page 12, omit
"plus .48" in third item and change total
point value for a 2-throw foul to .72.

4. Play: During dead ball, Al and Bl flag-
rantly foul each other. Is this a double foul?
How many free throws are awarded? How
is ball put in play after the last throw?

Ruling : It takes two personal fouls to make
a double foul. Since the outlined fouls oc-
cur during dead ball, they are technical. It
is not a double foul t)ut a false double foul.
Each foul carries its own penalty, i.e., two
free throws for each. After the last throw,
the ball is put in play by center jump.

5. Play: If two free throws are awarded
for a technical foul, is player always dis-
qualified ?

Ruling : Yes. The only time two free throws
are awarded for a technical foul is when
the foul is flagrant. If a foul is flagrant,
player must be disqualified in accordance
with second paragraph of penalty under
10-6.

Comment: Whether the Official considers
a foul as being flagrant is dependent on sever-
ity and related circumstances. An act such
as slugging is always flagrant. Use of abus-
ive language is also flagrant. An act such
as intentionally pushing an opponent might
be considered flagrant or it might not, de-
pending on severity and conditions. In the
case of a personal foul in which a player in-
tentionally pushes an opponent, two free
throws are always awarded because of the
intentional feature but the player might not

(Continued on Page Nine)

1. Play: What aids may be given the Of-
ficial in administering the 5-second held ball
limitation ?

Ruling: The second and third paragraphs
of the comments on held ball on page 30 of
the Rules Book and Plays 225 and 230 in the
Case Book should be used as a guide. For
practical administration the following speci-
fic statements might be helpful.

a. If a player in control is closely guarded
in the front court in the floor area within
about 15 feet of the center division line, he is
expected to pass the ball or dribble out of
this area within 5 seconds.

b. If he is successful in getting out of this
general area, the count is off since it is as-
sumed that in such circumstances he has
eluded his guard or that the opponent has
retreated into a type of zone defense. If he
then dribbles back into the restricted 1 5-foot
area, a new 5-second count may begin.

c. Dribbling alon'g the sideline is no dif-
ferent from dribbling farther in the court
unless the dribbler is penned in a corner or
in such a way that the opponent cannot reach
the ball without going out of bounds. In
such a situation the 5-second time limit ap-
plies.

Comment : This time limit has been adopt-
ed in the hope that the threat will be suffi-
cient to eliminate any necessity for enforce-
ment. Most coaches and players will realize
that it is a poor gamble for a team to de-
pend on one player to "run out the clock."
If, despite the rule, a dribbler attempts this,
it gives the defense a slightly better chance
to get action without the necessity of com-
mitting a foul.

2. Play: With respect to the roughly out-
lined areas which apply to the 5-second time
limit on dribbling in the front court, is it
safe to assume that they also apply to a play-
er who is holding the ball instead of drib-
bling?

Ruling: Yes.

3. Play: What irregularities have been dis-

State Tournament Reservations

The 1956 State High School Basketball
Tournament will be held in Lexington on
March 14-17. On October 24 each principal
of a K.H.S.A.A. member school a.\iA all city
and county superintendents were mailed an-
nouncements concerning reservations for
lodging during tournament time. In this
announcement it was stated that the period
of November 1-15 has been designated as the
First Priority Period in the matter of mak-
ing reservations for rooms.

A Housing Committee, set up by the
Lexington Chamber of Commerce, will as-
sist with lodging reservations, giving first
consideration to school representatives who
live in distant parts of the state and to those
whose reservations begin on Wednesday
night, March 14. Requests for lodging reser-
vations should be addressed to: Lexington
Chamber of Commerce, Tournament Reser-
vations, 152 East High Street, Lexington,
Kentucky.

The second Priority Period will be from
November 15 to December 1, and will apply
to others who plan to attend the tournament.
School officials should advise their patrons
concerning this period through articles in
their local or county newspapers.

National Federation Basketball Test

Part II of the National Federation basket-
ball examination will be given all over Ken-
tucky on Monday, December 5, to officials
who wish to work for the "approved" and
"certified" ratings. Officials registered with
the K.H.S.A.A. for the first time this year,
and who have not been registered previously

in any other state associations, are not elig-
ible to take the test. Those interested should
advise the State Office immediately in order
that necessary arrangements can be made
with the school administrators who will
supervise the taking of the exam. Officials
living in Kentucky need not suggest the
name of an examiner, since it is probable
that one examiner for each county will be
named. The "approved" rating does not
carry forward from year to year, but must
be earned each year. After an official has
received the "certified" rating, he keeps this
rating by attending clinics without having
to continue to take the exam each year.
Approved and Certified Officials

Nineteen football officials have qualified
for the "Certified" rating this fall, and
seven for the "Approved" rating. These of-
ficials are:

Certified Officials — Jim Barlow, Thomas
P. Bell, Howard Bennett, Richard Betz,
Travis Combs, Layton Cox, John S. Crosth-
waite, Jr., Jack H. Durkin, Gene Harris,
Fletcher Holeman, Bernard Johnson, Ray-
mond Kraesig, Carl Lawson, Bob McCollum,
Bill Nau, K. F. Schmitt, Joseph R. Schuh-
mann, John H. Shaw, Edward H. Weber.

Approved Officials — George W. Brown,
Edwin C. Caiman, Jr., John B. Jeter, James
M. Johnson, Douglas Noland, A. L. Perry,
Bill Scott.

Protection Fund News

Two hundred ten member schools of the
K.H.S.A.A. had insured their athletes with
the Protection Fund at the time this issue
of the magazine went to press. One hundred
thirty-two claims, totaling $2,562.09, have
been paid since July 1.

Employment Bureaus

Sixteen employment bureaus for officials,
one in each basketball region, have been es-
tablished. Each registered official should file

The 1955-1956 Basketball Rules

Comment by the Editorial Committee of tlie
National Basketball Committee

FROM THE COACHING STANDPOINT,
there are three changes which are signifi-
cant, i.e., the elimination of the 2-throw pen-
alty for a foul in the last three minutes, the
expanding of the 5-second held ball rule to
include the dribble under outlined circum-
stances, and the widening of the free throw
lane for college and A.A.U. courts. Most of
the other changes are in the nature of code
organization improvements or of simplifying
procedures in administering the game. In
common with all change from traditional pro-
cedures, these have ramifications which are
certain to raise questions whenever rules
matters are discussed. The following com-
ments are an attempt to anticipate .such prob-
lems and to outline the proper solution.

JUMP BALL •
The provision for delayed whistle for a
jump ball violation has been abolished. A
jump ball violation now kills the ball at the
instant it is committed or if the ball is already
dead, the violation causes it to remain dead.

(a) On a jump ball, non-jumper Bl is in
the restraining circle too soon but the ball
is tapped. Ruling: B's violation caused the
ball to remain dead. Award the ball to Team
A at out of bounds point nearest the viola-
tion.

(b) Jumper Bl is not in legal jumping
position, or he taps the ball before it reaches
its highest point. Ruling: Same as in (a),
except that B's tap on the way up may have
been due to a bad toss, in which case the ball
should be tossed again.

(c) Jump violation occurs on jump ball in
Team A's free throw circle. The uall is tapped
into A's basket. Ruling: No goal because the
violation caused the ball to remain dead;
ball awarded to offended team at the out of
bounds point nearest the violation. On a
regulation court, this would be at the end
line.

AWARD OF BALL AFTER VIOLATION
The penalty following Rule 9, Section 9,
formerly contained an exception which speci-
fied that the ball must be put in play on the

sideline when the ball went in the basket
after violations listed in Sections 2 to 9. This
exception has been deleted and the ball is
awarded out of bounds at the nearest point.
For instance, if A runs with the ball, then
throws the ball into the basket, no goal is
scored and the ball goes to B at the out of
bounds point nearest the violation. In so.ae
cases, the nearest point will be at the end.
The ball must be thrown in at the indicated
point and the thrower-in does not have the
right to pass the ball to another out of bounds
player, or to move along the line, as after a

The foregoing does not affect free throw
violations covered in 9-1. For these, the ball
is awarded out of bounds on the sidehne as
in the past.

STARTING THE CLOCK
For a jump ball, the clock is started when
the ball is legally tapped. This change con-
serves a few seconds of playing time in the
course of a game and might be important
in close games in which a second or two may
be vital. Officials should check timers prior
to each game to make sure that they under-
stand this new provision.

There may be a jump ball violation just
prior to the tap or an illegal tap. If the clock
is started in the belief that play has begun
legally, the official should signal time-out. If
an out of bounds penalty is imposed, the clock
should be restarted on the throw-in when the
ball touches a player in the court. If, instead
of a throw-in, the officials order a re-jump,
the clock should be started when the ball is
legally tapped.

FLAGRANT TECHNICAL FOULS
A flagrant technical foul now calls for the
awarding of two free throws, plus disqualifi-
cation.

Al and Bl flagrantly foul each other dur-
ing dead ball. The fouls are technical because
they occur during dead ball. Two free throws
are awarded to each team and the offenders
are disqualified. Any player of the respective
teams may attempt the free throws. This is
not a double foul situation because by defini-
tion, the term double foul applies only to
personal fouls, that is, personal contact while
the ball is alive.

PUTTING THE BALL IN PLAY AT START
OF GAME AND PERIODS
Rule 6, Section 2, states that the ball shall
be put in play at the beginning of each
quarter (or half) and each extra period by
a center jump between two opponents. Un-

The Flying Dutchman

The annual basketball clinics continue to
bring out more interesting- facts each year.
There is always something new happening.
After The Dutchman completed his 1900-
mile circuit of Kentucky this year for his
fourteenth annual session of clinics, he feels
that it may now correctly be assumed that
everything has happened in the way on con-
ducting the rules meetings that can happen.

Over the years, clinics have been held in
gymnasiums where basketball practice was
going on simultaneously with the rules ses-
sion, carpenters were at work in another
place sawing and hammering, and shop
classes were in operation with buzz saws go-
ing, but it remained for "Moose" Zachem to
come up with the "gem of them all" when,
in the midst of an explanation of stalling by
the dribbler, the personable chap cut in on
the school's loud speaker system to announce,
"There will be a meeting of the Rainbow
Girls tonight and all of you are invited."
The school men over Kentucky are to be
highly complimented for the cooperation
which they have all given to make the clinics
more successful each year. They have all
been superb.

The Game Guy project, which was started
in 1949, got a "shot in the arm" this year
when Bob Kirchdorfer, who was the first
winner of the Game Guy Plaque in that
year, accompanied The Dutchman on his
sashay through Northern and Eastern Ken-
tucky. Bob, who is paralyzed from his hips
down with polio, won the hearts of every-
body as he spoke to them, asking that they
interest themselves in young men with phys-
ical handicaps and recommend them for The
Flying Dutchman Award.

It was Joe Gilly, Harlan's popular coach
of all sports, who made the first nomination
for the Game Guy Award of 1956 when he
recommended that a Lionheart Lapel But-
ton be sent to one of his star athletes, Tony
Halbumt. Tony had the misfortune of los-
ing some of the fingers of one hand in an
accident this summer, but he refuses to be
beaten by his handicap. Everybody is cheer-
ing the courageous youngster who is cur-
rently playing football and is expected to
reach new heights on the hardwood this
winter. Tony's Lionheart Lapel Button will
be presented to him in an appropriate cere-
mony in the mountain city. Let's follow Bob
Kirchdorfer's suggestion that you find out
who these game guys are, where they live
and notify The Flying Dutchman, Armory

,d^SB

/ -

Building, Louisville, Kentucky, so that each
may receive his lapel button award and be
eligible for the Game Guy Plaque, which will
be presented at the annual K.H.S.A.A. dinner
during K.E.A.

Be sure to take a look at the picture of
the race horse with the Corn Cob Pipe around
its neck which is the attractive paper weight
which will be sent to people rendering un-
selfish service to others. Already these Ken-
tucky Thoroughbreds have gone to Charlie
Forsythe, Commissioner, and Dave Arnold,
Assistant Commissioner, of the Michigan
High School Athletic Association ; L. V.
Phillips, Commissioner, and Bob Hinshaw,
Assistant Commissioner, of the Indiana
High School Athletic Association. Three
more are on their way this month to Ernie
Chattin, of Ashland, who has devoted years
of his life to unselfish service to young
people ; Stanley Arnzen, who has gone far
beyond the call of duty to make things
pleasant in the annual basketball clinics at
Newport; and to James A. Pursifull, Prin-
cipal of Bell County High School, who set an
outstanding example of developing friendly
relations between communities at this year's
basketball session at Bell County High
School.

Jimmy Pursifull did something which the
officials and coaches proclaimed "tops." He
had sandwiches of all kinds, cakes, coffee,
and soft drinks on hand as a compliment
from Bell County to everybody in attend-
ance. The manner in which everybody took
part in this social occasion was ample evi-
dence of their appreciation of his unselfish
service.

We picked up a lot of information as we
drove through the mountains and valleys of
Kentucky. Elvis Hall, veteran official who
roams the area surrounding Owensboro,
Hartford and Henderson, will shortly pack
his bag for a trip to Venezuela, where he will
umpire in the winter baseball league. Glen
McDowell, for many years an outstanding
official in the mountain area surrounding
Pikeville, is back in the coaching business
at John's Creek High School. Bob McLeod,
the popular young Somerset pediatrician, did
double duty at Somerset as he supervised the
basketball clinic and a Polio Clinic for chil-
dren at the same time.

Dr. Bob McLeod is one of Kentucky's most
efficient and unusual officials. He officiates
strictly because he loves the game of basket-
ball and wants to keep contact with the young
men who play it. Every youngster on the
street calls a friendly greeting, "Hello, Doc-
tor Bob!" as he passes. At the clinic the
football players were having a field day
kidding him about a stiff knee caused by an
operation on some tendons. The more they
kid Bob, the better he likes it and they like
him. A most unusual fellow!

All officials should adopt Bob's happy
philosophy that officiating is a hobby. While
it is true that it may at times be a profitable
one, the men who get the most from the ac-
tivity are those who do it to remain young
with the boys who play. While all of us feel
that officials must be properly compensated
for their time and effort, everybody, includ-
ing the officials, must realize that the great-
est returns come from serving the boys,
rather than from cashing the checks. While
we were in Mayfield, the news broke that
Kelly Thompson, long associated with West-
ern Kentucky State College, had been named
the President of the Hilltop institution.
The news was enthusiastically received be-
cause Kelly richly deserves the post and a
nicer iguy could not have been selected for
the high honor. Kelly has always been a
friend of high school athletics and has never
missed a night clinic in the forteen years
The Dutchman has been making the rounds.
He has our best wishes.

One thing was obvious over the state, that
being there is either a shortage of officials
in an area or there is an over abundance.
New officials must be encouraged and de-
veloped. Possibly the best example of the
right attitude to be instilled in young offi-
cials was manifested by Billy Riggs, of Mor-
ganfield, who set forth to properly train

The K.H.S.A.A. has rented several prints
of the new basketball film, BETTER
BASKETBALL, and has placed these on
loan with the Department of Extension,
University of Kentucky. The film was shown
at the basketball clinics, recently conducted
by Charlie Vettiner, and received much fav-
orable comment.

The film is produced under the sanction
of the National Federation of State High
School Athletic Associations and in coopera-
tion with the National Basketball Commit-
tee and the National Association of Basket-
ball Coaches.

The production is made possible by two
good friends of school athletics : General
Mills, Inc., Wheaties "Breakfast of Champ-
ions"; and Wilson Sporting Goods Co.,
World's Largest Manufacturer of Sports
Equipment.

The film demonstrates original rules and
current rules. It portrays good officiating
procedure, continuing motion, time limits,
responsibility during screens and dribbles,
basket interference with animation, floor and
free throw violations, player and team con-
trol, substitution procedure, colorful action
by skilled high school and university players,
crowd scenes, and humor in costumes and
action of by-gone days.

Current Swimming Rules

Editorial Note : For a number of years, the
swimming rules have remained almost the
same from year to year. For the 1955-56
season, a rule which has been widely dis-
cussed for several years has been changed.
Director C. E. Foi'sythe (Michigan), who is
the National Federation representative on
the Swimming Rules Committe, has sum-
marized the rules action authorized at the
last meeting of the National Committee.
Questions concerning details may be direct-
ed to Mr. Forsythe.

SWIMMING RULES FOR 1955-56
By Director C. E. Forsythe (Michigan)

At the 1955 meeting of the National
Swimming Rules Committee, there were sev-
eral significant actions. Decisions were in-
fluenced by recommendations or surveys
made by the Interscholastic Swimming
Coaches' Association or by a member of
members of the National Committee. In the
case of action which involves high school
swimming, all State Offices were contacted
prior to the meeting so that sentiment con-
cerning the proposed change was available.
The following action may be of general in-
terest.

ELIMINATION OF HAND TOUCH IN
FREESTYLE EVENTS— There was consid-
erable discussion of the modification of this
Rule which would eliminate the hand touch
in freestyle events. It had been proposed at
several meetings but had not been adopted
by the Committee. This year it was decided
that a poll should be conducted among the
members of the Interscholastic Swimming
Coaches' Association to determine whether
there was sufficient sentiment to warrant
the change in this Rule for interscholastic
swimming. Such a poll was conducted and
there were 73 affirmative votes and 25 in the
negative. As a result of this expression of
opinion. Chairman Royer of the N.C.A.A.
Swimming Committee again contacted mem-
bers of the Committee itself on the proposed
change and the vote was 6 favoring the
elimination of the hand touch, 1 abstention,
and 3 opposed to the change. As a result of
the majority opinion of the members of the
Committee, the Chairman has declared that
the hand touch is to be eliminated from inter-
scholastic swimming freestyle events be-
ginning with the 1955-56 season.

BREASTSTROKE (Rule X)— The Com-
mittee approved the retention of the present
100 yard butterfly breaststroke for inter-
scholastic swimming.

INDIVIDUAL MEDLEY— The interschol-
astic individual medley shall be 150 yards
with the first leg butterfly or breaststroke
to be used interchangeably or any combina-
tion thereof; the second leg is to be back-
stroke; and the last leg, any stroke other
than butterfly, breaststroke or backstroke.

MEDLEY RELAY— The interscholastic
medley relay race is to become a 200 yard
four-stroke relay. Four swimmers on each
team — with each to swim one-fourth of the
distance continuously; first: backstroke; sec-
ond: breaststroke as prescribed in Rule 9,
Section 1, Page 139, of the 1955 Guide ; third :
optional-butterfly or butterfly breaststroke;
fourth : a stroke other than backstroke, but-
terfly, butterfly breaststroke, or breast-

SCo'rING IN MEDLEY RELAY— The
scoring in the interscholastic medley relay
at dual meets is to be the same as for the
freestyle relay composed of four men (7-0).
Championships - six finalists: 14, 10, 8, 6, 4,
2 ; five finalists : 12, 8, 6, 4, 2 ; four f malists :
10, 6, 4, 2.

FALSE START ELIMINATION— Provis-
ions of Rule V, Section 4, Page 136 of the
1955 Guide, do not apply to interscholastic
dual meets.

THE 1955-1956 BASKETBALL RULES

(Continued from Page Five)
der the new provision whereby the ball be-
comes alive and the clock starts when the
ball is legally tapped, instead of when the
ball leaves the official's hands on the toss,
there is more possibility for a violation be-
fore the ball becomes alive and greater pos-
sibility for starting a period with a throw-in.
Illustration: At the start of a period. Jump-
er Bl taps the ball before it reaches its higii-
est point. It not a legal tap and therefore
the ball is awarded to an opponent for a
throw-in and the clock starts when the
throw-in touches a player in the court. The
ball remains dead when the violation occurs.
The same procedure follows other violations
that occur before the ball is legally tapped.
If, because of a slow whistle, the clock is
started, it should be stopped and re-started
when the throw-in is touched.

The foregoing applies only to violations.
If a technical foul occurs before the ball is
legally tapped, it is treated as though it were
a foul during intermission. The free throw
is attempted after which it is a jump ball at
center.

HELD BALL

Changes in the definition of Held Ball

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR NOVEMBER, 1955

Page Nine

(4-10) provide that it is a held ball after 5
seconds if a player in his front court, in an
obvious attempt to consume time and while
closely guarded, controls the ball without a
reasonable effort to pass or shoot. Formerly
the word "holds" was used but now it ap-
plies to a player who is holding or dribbling
the ball. The definition is amplified in the
COMMENTS ON THE RULES under the
caption HELD BALL. If the comments are
studied, there should be no difficulty in ad-
ministering the change. The fact that this
additional restriction has been placed on
player control of the ball will probably dis-
courage this type of control. The risk of los-
ing the ball will deter players from using
such tactics, just as infractions of the three-
seconds and ten-seconds rules seldom occur.
The change gives the trailing team a slight-
ly better chance to combat a "freeze."

EARLY SEASON BASKETBALL QUESTIONS

(Continued from Page One)
be disqualified. However, if it is a situation
in which a player intentionally pushes an
opponent in the back when he is driving in
for a try, it is usually considered a flagrant
act and the player is disqualified.

6. Play: Why was the double free throw
for a foul in the last three minutes elimi-
nated?

Ruling: This was a compromise between
those who have contended that the old pen-
alty of one free throw for each common
foul is severe enough and those who have
contended that the penalty for a foul must
be so severe that a player cannot afford to
gamble on committing a foul. The bonus
penalty is about 50 7o more severe than the
1-throw penalty. The double-throw penalty
as used last year during the last three min-
utes is about 400% more severe than the
1-throw penalty. It was almost 300% more
severe than the bonus penalty. Developments
during the season will determine whether
the bonus penalty is severe enough to cause
players to use every reasonable means to
avoid committing a foul.

7. Play: Rule 6-2 states that each period
begins with a jump ball. Does this mean that
if there is a violation of the jump rules prior
to the first jump, you ignore the violation?

Ruling: No. The new definition of the
meaning of "a rule" (4-16A) makes it clear
that any rules statement is made on the as-
sumption that it is not complicated by a foul
or a violation unless so stated or implied.
The statement in 6-2 is, therefore, correct.

But if a foul or violation occurs, the specific
rule concerning such foul or violation is to
be used. In the case of a jump ball violation,
the violation penalty should be enforced and
the period will then start with the throw-in.
If a technical foul precedes the jump ball,
the specific rule 8-5 is the one which is fol-
lowed. This rule makes an exception for a
foul which precedes a jump ball, it might be
claimed that there is lack of consistency in
handling the violation and the foul. The
Rules Committee will probably consider this
matter at the next meeting. It is possible
that the exception in 8-5 should be eliminat-
ed. This would be a step in the direction of
avoiding exceptions wherever possible. The
occurrence is so rare that it would not make
much difference in actual practice.

8. Play: Can basket interference ever oc-
cur at a player's own basket?

Ruling: No. Basket interference is a tech-
nical term which includes those acts which
are covered in Rule 9-10 ad 11. Illegal touch-
ing of a free throw when it is in flight to-
ward the basket or when it is on the ring
are free throw violations with the usual free
throw violation penalty. They are not in-
cluded in the acts as outlined in Sections 10
and 11.

9. Play: Is it possible to commit a "goal
tending" violation during a free throw?

Ruling: Not if the technical meaning of
"goal tending" is used. "Goal tending" ap-
plies to the acts outlined in Rule 9-11. They
do not apply to a free throw.

10. Play: If a court is marked to show
both the narrow and the wide free throw
lanes, is it legal to use different colors for
these markings?

Ruling: Yes. The rules do not specify any
color for floor markings. There may be some
advantage in having different colors if both
types of lane are marked.

11. Play: If the 12-foot wide lane is being
used, may players step into the lane as soon
as the ball leaves the free thrower's hand ?

Ruling: No. The Professional League has
a modified rule of this type but in all other
groups, it is necessary for players to avoid
touching the floor in the lane before the ball
has touched the basket or backboard.

12. Play: Is the front face and each edge
of a backboard treated the same as the floor
inbounds ?

Ruling: In most respects, it is the same.

Page Ten

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR NOVEMBER, 1955

It differs in two ways, (a) If a player throws
the ball to the floor and touches it again,
it is a dribble but if he throws it against his
own backboard, it is not a dribble, (b) If a
try for field goal or free throw touches the
floor, the try is ended but if it touches the
face or edge of the backboard, the try is not
ended.

13. Play: On jump ball between Al and Bl,
A2 is in the cylinder simultaneously with the
tapping of the ball. Is this a violation?

Ruling: No. To be a violation, the entry
must be "before" the tap.

14. Play: On jump ball, A2 is in the
cylinder too soon. Players do not hear the
whistle and play continues with the timer
erroneously starting the clock and allowing
it to run. Should the Officials order the clock
set back?

Ruling: Usually the lesser of several evils
is to assume that no correction can be made.
However, in certain cases where, with only
a few seconds remaining, the error is es-
pecially significant, the Official has author-
ity to arbitrarily state that a given number
of seconds remain to be played. He will do
this only in extreme cases where it is ob-
vious that the outcome of the game may be
determined by the error.

15. Play: What experimental projects are
being sponsored?

Ruling: Several large high school groups
are experimenting with the wide free throw
lane. Data is being collected concerning
basketball nets so that the most advantag-
eous net length and distance from the ring
to the nearest knotted loops can be deter-
mined. Because of the potential danger in
the lower part of the rectangular backboard,
a study is being made to determine whether
the lower part of such backboard should be
eliminated. Various types of time limit on
control in the front court are being tried.
A further expansion of the 5-second limit
on a dribble in the front court is being ob-
served. This would apply the 5-second limit
to any situation which appears to involve an
attempt to consume time and regardless of
where it occurs in the front court.

16. Play: Is a properly constructed rubber-
covered basketball legal ? Also, what is the
meaning of "properly constructed"?

Ruling: For the current season, a rubber-
covered basketball can be used only when
both teams agree to its use. Beginning with
the season of 1956-57, such ball will have the
same standing as a leather-covered basket-

ball as far as high school and Y.M.C.A. are
concerned. To avoid the difficulties which
might come from attempts to use a poorly
constructed beach ball, the high school or-
ganization conducts a testing and approval
plan so that only those balls which have the
proper reaction are included in the term
"properly constructed." A list of the trade
names and numbers of such balls may be
secured from the National Federation or the
State High School Association office.

17. Play: Are the scenes and rulings in
the new film "Better Basketball" approved?

Ruling: Yes. This film was supervised by
representatives of the National Federation,
the National Basketball Committee and the
National Basketball Coaches' Association.
All rulings are in accordance with the of-
ficial rules.

18. Play: Since a jump ball does not start
until the ball is legally tapped, do violations
such as being in the cylinder too soon occur
during dead ball (before the jump) or dur-
ing live ball (during or after the jump) ?

Ruling: They occur during dead ball and
prior to the jump. The use of the term "dur-
ing the jump" as used in 9-6 must be inter-
preted to mean "during activity connected
with the jump ball." This also has a bearing
on violations which occur just prior to the
starting of a period. In previous years, the
violation occurred after the ball became alive
and the period had started. Now they occur
before the live ball and this raises questions
about whether a period may start with a
throw-in. See Play 7 above for comment.

*~19. Play: If Al and Bl flagrantly foul
each other during dead ball so that 2 throws
are awarded for each foul and the players
disqualified, who may throw the free throws ?

Ruling: Any other player or entering sub-
stitute. There might be a different free
thrower for each throw. The last throw is
followed by jump ball at center as after any
false double foul. Official will ordinarily take
ball to the free throw line nearest spot of the
foul for the first pair of throws.

20. Play: If the above false double foul
occurs just prior to the starting of a 2nd
extra period, is the extra period played?

Ruling: If one team scores 2 points on the
free throws and the other team does not, it
results in a team scoring 2 points "after the
first extra period has ended" (5-7) and the
game is ended. Otherwise, the 2nd extra
period is played.

MORE OR LESS PERSONAL : C. W. Whit-
ten celebrated his 84th birthday last Aug-
ust at his home at 121 Kingston Street,
South, in St. Petersburg, Florida.

P. F. Neverman, formerly Secretary of the
Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Associa-
tion, is enjoying his retirement at his home
in Marinette, Wisconsin. He maintains his
usual interest in all matters pertaining to
school athletic activities.

Secretary LaFayette Golden (Florida) is
back on the job for a short time each week,
after having been confined to a hospital with
a heart ailment. Headquarters are now in
the newly constructed office building which
is owned by the Florida Association.

Mitchel (Mitch) Ferguson, who served as
President of the Florida Association for a
number of years, is now connected with the
State Department of Public Instruction with
headquarters at Tallahassee.

Principal John Sexton of Northeast High
School in St. Petersburg, Florida, will as-
sist with the filming of the new baseball pic-
ture. He helped supervise the picture "Foot-
ball-by-the-Code" which was made in St.
Petersburg several years ago..

PUBLICATION DEVELOPMENTS: The
North Dakota Association is the latest to
make the transition to a monthly printed
magazine. The first "Activities Bulletin" was
issued in September. It is attractively print-
ed in a 2-color cover and a 3-column make-up.
The first issue was 8 printed pages in a size
of 81/2 by 11.

The West Virginia "Interscholastic" made
its appearance in September. It replaces the
West Virginia "Athlete." The new publica-
tion is attractively made up with a 2-column
make-up and 20 printed pages. One way in
which this magazine differs from most of the
other State Association publications is in the
fact that the make-up for page 1 is such as
to be a substitute for a cover. The masthead
is attractive and incorporates a new artistic
design for the State Association seal.

BASEBALL ACTIVITY: The National
Federation Baseball Committee met in Chi-
cago on October 17 and 18. The rules for the
season of 1956 were made up and plans were
made for baseball activity to be conducted
during the year. These activities include the
making of a new baseball film under the di-
rection of the Official Sports Film Service.
A. A. Schabinjger and William Runyon will
jointly direct the film. Mr. Runyon will be-
come associated with the Official Sports Film

Service, beginning January 1. The filming
will be done in the vicinity of St. Petersburg,
Florida during the latter part of April. The
film will be ready for preview in time for
the annual Federation meeting in June.

Dot Harkins acted as Secretary in the ab-
sence of Loyce Meadows at our sectional
meeting of the Fall Conference of the K.A.H.
P.E.R., held at Kenlake Hotel on October
7-9. Plans were made for a student-sponsor
meeting of all G.S.A.'s in the state, to be held
in the Western College gym, Bowling Green,
November 5.

By the time this issue of the ATHLETE
comes from the press, the Bowling Green
meeting will have been held. It was hoped
that a large representation from throughout
the state would be present in order that dis-
trict representatives could be appointed.
Each of the eleven districts of the state has
one faculty and one student representative.
If invitations failed to reach any Girls Sports
Associations, those interested in receiving
more information concerning the state or-
ganization should send cards of inquiry to
Betty Langley, College High School, Bowling
Green.

At the present time we have fourteen paid
members in our newly formed Kentucky
Federation of High School Girls Sports As-
sociations. Following is a list of sponsors
and member schools:

similar to that which has been in effect for
the past several years has been outlined
and will be followed provided it is approved
by the Professional Baseball organization.
Professional Baseball has subsidized this
program to encourage giving baseball atten-
tion similar to that which has been accorded
football and basketball.

The new baseball pul:lications will be
printed during December and early January
in time for use at meetings which precede
the opening of the baseball season.

JANUARY MEETINGS: Several import-
ant meetings are being held at Nashville,
Tennessee during the period from January
4 to January 7. The National Federation
Executive Committee will meet Wednesday
morning and afternoon, January 4. State
Executives who are interested in non-athletic
activities will have a conference on Wednes-
day night, January 4. The National Federa-
tion Football Committee will meet Thursday
morning and afternoon and Friday morning
and afternoon, January 5 and 6. The State
Executive Officers will meet on Friday night
and Saturday morning, January 6 and 7. The
Program Committee for the non-athletic ac-
tivities is made up of M. F. Sprunger
(Illinois), Chairman; A. Oden Hawes (Ore-
gon); and J. F. Jiacoletti (Wyoming). The
Program Committee for the Executive Of-
ficers Session is made up of Secretary Fos-
ter Bridges (Tennessee) ; Commissioner T.
A. Sanford (Kentucky) ; and the National
Federation Executive Secretary.

FOOTBALL ACTIVITY: Several import-
ant safety projects are being sponsored.
One of these includes a detailed study of dif-
ferent types of mouthguards and face pro-
tectors. Data are being collected concerning
the advantages and disadvantages of each
type of protector. Another study involves a
survev of all serious injuries. In past years,
data have been collected to determine the
exact cause of those injuries which resulted
in death. The new survey has been expanded
to include an injury which involves a long
period of medical care. Through this survey,
it will be possible to determine the exact
type of play during which the injury occurs
and possible related causes.

All of the above data will be made avail-
able for an equipment conference which is
being held in (Chicago on Monday, December
19. At this conference, representatives from
manufacturers of athletic equipment will be
in attendance. The Federation will be repre-

sented by the chairmen of those committees
which are directly interested in safety fac-
tors and by others from nearby State As-
sociations. The conference is designed to
provide full information as to recent activi-
ties to make the game safer and to permit
the adoption of minimum standards for items
such as face protectors, shoe cleats and other
apparatus. Following the equipment confer-
ence, full report will be made at the meeting
of the National Federation Football Com-
mittee at Nashville. Tennessee on January 5.

the School for Officials in Lexington, and
then showed up for the training clinics at
both Owensboro and Henderson Young of-
ficials wanting to break into officiating
would do well to follow Billy's example, get
as much training as possible, and officiate
at every opportunity, whether for pay or
experience.

More than 2500 officials, coaches, players
and spectators jammed into the fourteen
sessions which were held. To this group at
Hazard we should add twenty-five young
ladies who lead the cheers in the mountain
area. Their presence was gratifyinq: because
cheerleaders can do much toward developing
and maintaining the proper attitude of
sportsmanship among the spectators. Every-
body in attendance was in accord in »cclaim-
in? the motion picture film on officiating,
which was shown, to be one of the finest ad-
ditions ever made to the annual rules ses-
sions.

Early Season Basketball Questions — Installment 2

24. Play: A 6 foot 10 inch player stands in the
outer half of his free throw circle or in that vicinity
and holds the ball above his head so that no oppon-
ent can reach it without committing' a foul. It is a
situation where it is to his advantage to consume
time. Does the 5-second held ball rule apply?

Ruling: The Note under Rule 4-10 states that
the 5-second time limit "normally" does not apply
to such area. In the outlined situation, any Official
would be justified in regarding it as an "abnormal"
situation and he has authority to apply the 5-second
time limit.

25. Play: On a last free throw which is missed
or on a try for field goal which is missed, A2 gets
the rebound in his front court. He then dribbles to
his back court. Is this legal ?

Ruling: No.

26. Play: On throw-in by Al from outside his
back court, the pass is near the center division line
when A2 leaps from his front court, catches the ball
and alights in his back court. Is this a violation?

Ruling: Yes. Since the position of A2 while in
flight is the same as it was when he last touched
the floor, A2 is in the front court when he first
touches the ball. This is in accordance with Rule
4-13. When he then alights in the back court, the
ball is in the back court and it has been caused to
go there by A2 who was in control as soon as he
caught the ball.

Comment: A similar situation might occur
when A2 is in his front court when he taps the
throw-in and it goes into the back coui-t. However,
in this latter situation, the legality of the play de-
pends on whether A2 was in control when he tapped
the ball. Ordinarily, in the case of the ball being
tapped, the Official leans toward calling it an un-
controlled tap, i.e., an attempt to get the ball in a
position where control can be secured. If there is no
control, the outlined action is not a violation.

27. Play: Wliile ball is rolling on the floor, Al
requests time-out and the Official inadvertently
grants it. What is the penalty?

Ruling: No penalty is prescribed since this is an
error by the Official. The time-out should be
charged to the requesting team and the full one
minute should be allowed. Several years ago this
resulted in a triple penalty, i.e., a technical foul as
well as a charged time-out and cancellation of the
rest period which usually follows the granting of
a time-out. It was felt that such a penalty was not
justified. Responsibility is now placed on the Official
to avoid granting a time-out unless there is player
control, i.e., unless a player of the requesting team
is either holding or dribbling the ball.

28. Play: Al travels and ball is awarded out
of bounds to Bl. At the time, 3 seconds remain to
be played. On the throw-in, B2 gets the ball and
scores. The Timer failed to start the clock. Should
the score count ?

(Continued on Page Ten)

Editor's Note: These rulings do not set aside or modify any
rule. They are interpretations on some of the early season
situations which have been presented.

21. Play: During jump between Al and Bl,
Al jumps through the plane of the circle dividing
line and into Bl. Contact is made: (a) on the way
up; or (b) as jumpers come down after the tap.

Ruling: Under current rule, ball does not become
alive until it has been legally tapped. Hence, if con-
tact is made while jumpers are rising as in (a),
it occurs during dead ball. If the contact is con-
sidered illegal, it is a technical foul. In most cases
of this kind, the contact will be because of an at-
tempt to gain an advantage through unbalancing- the
opponent. If so, a technical foul should be called.
In (b), it is a foul during live ball and results in a
bonus penalty.

Comment: The modified rule which specifies
that the ball does not become alive until it is legally
tapped, has resulted in a number of related changes.
It is possible that there would be fewer irregular
situations if the rule were changed to specify that
the ball becomes alive when it leaves the Official's
hand on a toss, even though the clock does not start
until it has been legally tapped. This matter will be
studied for possible action at the next meeting of
the Rules Committee.

22. Play: On jump ball between Al and Bl,
ball is legally tapped: (a) by Al; or (b) simultan-
eously by both jumpers. In either case, it goes direct-
ly out of bounds. Are these legal taps ? And when
does the clock start?

Ruling: In either case, it is a legal tap and the
clock starts with the tap. In (a), it continues to run
during the throw-in unless the clock is stopped be-
cause it rolls into the crowd and causes delay. In
(b), it stops as soon as ball is out of bounds be-
cause it results in another jump ball.

23. Play: During jump between Al and Bl in
A's free throw circle, Bl illegally jumps into Al
while he is in the act of tapping the ball. The tapped
ball: (a) goes in the basket, or (b) misses the
basket. Does the foul kill the ball ? How many free
throws are awarded ?

Ruling: Since the act of batting the ball to-
ward the basket is included as a part of "continuing
motion" as outlined in the Note under 10-7, the foul
does not kill the ball. Since the foul occurs before
the tap, it is a dead ball foul and, therefore, tech-
nical. One free throw is awarded.

Comment: If this foul were personal, some un-
usual problems would be created. If the tapped ball
fell in the basket, the goal would count unless it is
ruled that it is a "controlled bat" and, therefore, a
try for field goal. If it is so ruled, Al has violated
the jumping rule because of having "caught" the
tossed ball. If it is not a controlled bat and, hence,
is not a try for goal, it is not a foul against a
thrower. The bonus penalty would be assessed even
though a goal has been scored.

State Y.M.C.A. Youth Day

The Fifth Annual Youth Day and Cheerleaders'
Clinic on Sportsmanship, under the auspices of the
Kentucky State Y.M.C.A., was held on Saturday,
November 12, at the University of Kentucky. More
than three thousand high school students attended.
Three concurrent meetings were held, beginning at
10:00 A. M. Cheerleaders met in Alumni Gymnas-
ium, majorettes in Guignol Theatre, and all other
students in the Coliseum.

The purpose of the Youth Day was to en-
courage high school students to go to college, and to
give them an idea of what the University of Ken-
tucky offers students. An excellent program had
been prepared, which included the University brass
choir, troupers, short addresses, demonstration by
the varsity basketball team, a short concert by the
Men's Glee Club, and a dramatic skit. Walter Hall,
Warren Lutz, and Don Wilson were in charge of
the session for majorettes.

The purpose of the clinic for cheerleaders was
to build greater sportsmanship in high school ath-
letics. A. D. Litchfield, State Secretary of the
Y.M.C.A. of Kentucky, presided. Members of his
panel were: Bemie A. Shively, Director of Athletics,
University of Kentucky; Ed Ashford, Sports Editor,
Lexington Herald; Johnny Carrico, Assistant Sports
Editor, Louisville Courier- Journal; Claude Sullivan,
Sports Announcer, Radio Station WVLK; George

Walsh, Sports Announcer, Radio Station WHAS;
and "Cookie" Grawemeyer, Captain of the Univer-
sity of Kentucky basketball team.

Following the panel, Mrs. Stella Gilb of the
U. K. staff led a demonstration of good and bad
cheering. She was assisted by cheerleaders of the
University, Lexington Catholic, Henry Clay, and
Lafayette high schools. SuKy and the University
cheerleaders worked vwth the high school cheer-
leaders for a program to be given later on the
football field.

Cheerleaders and majorettes attended the
Memphis State-Kentucky football game in their
school uniforms and appeared on the field im-
mediately preceding the game for a program in
which the majorettes, accompanied by the Henry
Clay and Lafayette bands, gave a demonstration
of twirling. The cheerleaders joined the University
cheerleaders in giving a yell for the two teams.

This was the third of three such programs
held under the auspices of the Kentucky State
Y.M.C.A. this year. On October 22, more than 325
cheerleaders from 52 high schools participated in a
clinic at Western Kentucky State College. On Nov-
ember 5, 300 attended the Youth Day and Cheer-
leaders' Clinic at Kentucky State College.

Dr. M. E. Ligon Honored

On October 28 the Taylor Education Building- at
the University of Kentucky was the scene of a pro-
gram honoring Dr. M. E. Ligon, Professor Emeritus
of the University. Dr. Harold Adams of the U. K.
College of Education, Chairman of the Kentucky
Committee of the Southern Association of Colleges
and Secondary Schools, presented a portrait of Dr.
Ligon to the College of Education. The portrait was
accepted by Dean Frank G. Dickey.

After opening remarks by Dr. Adams, the In-
vocation was given by Bart N. Peak, Secretary of
the University of Kentucky Y.M.C.A. Tributes to
Dr. Ligon were paid by Director Ezra L. Gillis,
Bureau of Source Materials for Higher E..ucation,
University of Kentucky; Commissioner Theo. A.
Sanford of the K.H.S.A.A.; and Mr. W. F. Coslow,
Assistant Superintendent of the Louisville City
Schools, speaking for Principal W. S. Milburn of the
Louisville Male and Girls High School, President
of the Southern Association of Colleges and Second-
ary Schools. The program ended with Dr. Ligon's
response to Dean Dickey s acceptance of the por-
trait.

Because of the important part which Dr. Ligon
played in the organization of the Kentucky High
School Athletic Association, the remarks made by
Commissioner Sanford at the dedicatory program
are given below.

Mose Ligon, Educator

"The man whom we are honoring today, Dr.
M. E. Ligon, has made a great contribution to high
school athletics in Kentucky. In fact, few, if any,
have made greater contributions.

"After teaching in the Philippines during the

1905-1908 period, being prinicpal of the Paducah
Franklin Elementary School from 1908 to 1910, and
teaching science in the Owensboro High School from
1910 to 1913, Prof. Ligon came to Lexington in
August of 1913 as principal of the Lexin.a:ton High
School.

"Up to this time high school athletics had not
been organized in Kentucky, either on a state or
area basis. There were no eligibility I'ules, and most
of the competition was on an unequal basis. Prof.
Ligon had trained and coached good teams of the
Philippines in baseball, track, and swimming. He
now came in direct contact with high school ath-
letics when he became principal of the Lexington
High School. Football, basketball, baseball, and track
had been introduced in the larger high schools, but
no organization had been established to enforce
uniform rules of eligibility and play.

"In the spring of 1914 Prof. Ligon invited
Central Kentucky administrators to a conference
in his office in Lexington to consider the problem
of high school athletics. Every school which was
invited responded. The conference revealed that the
problems were the same in all of the schools, and
were difficult to deal with because there was no
organization to which appeals for help might be
made. The Central Kentucky High School Athletic
Association was organized, and Prof. Ligon was
elected its first president. By-laws, rules of eligibil-
ity, and rules of the game were adopted. The by-
laws provided that the president and vice-president
were to interpret the rules and sit in judgment on
all cases of eligibility. The by-laws and rules were
printed and sent to all the schools. The press gave
the organization good publicity. The superintendents
and principals enforced the rules well and only a few
difficult problems were referred to the president

and vice-president. Representatives of the schools
met in the spring of 1915, and amended and added
to the rules. The association worked well during
1914-1915, 1915-1916, and 1916-1917.

"In 1916 requests for the rules of the Central
Kentucky organization became frequent and there
was talk of a similar organization in Western Ken-
tucky. Prof. Ligon discouraged this organization
and suggested a meeting of the representatives of
the high schools in April of 1917 during the annual
meeting of the Kentucky Education Association. The
suggestion was accepted, the meeting was held and
the Kentucky High School Athletic Association was
organized. Prof. Ligon was elected president. The
Central Kentucky Association became a part of the
Kentucky Association, and its rules and regulations
were used during 1917-1918. President Ligon served
the Association with distinction for nine years,
1917-1926. He has served sixteen years on the ath-
letic board of the University of Kentucky, six years
under Dr. Frank L. McVey and ten years under
Dr. Herman L. Donovan. His experience in the field
of high school athletics has been valuable in assist-
ing in the solution of the athletic problems of the
University.

"The object of the Kentucky High School
Athletic Association remains the same as it was
when it was formulated by Prof. Ligon and his
friends in 1917. It is stated as follows in the K.H.S.
A. A. Constitution. 'Its object shall be the develop-
ment, regulation, and purification of the athletic
activities in this state.'

"The Association has come a long way. Many
services to member schools have been added. How-
ever, President Ligon in those early days was per-
forming many of the duties that have not changed
through the years. The eligibility of players must
still be checked, rules and regulations of the As-
sociation must be interpreted, penalties must be
imposed.

"All honor to the man who pioneered in the
organization of high school athletics in this state!
All honor to the man whom all of us, who know him,
Jove and respect! All honor to Mose Ligon, educator!

Girls' and Womens' Sports News

By Betty Langley

In our November article the Kentucky Federa-
tion of High School Girls Sports Associations mem-
bership list was given, and now we are happy to add
another new member, Fern Creek High School, Mary
Rose Cave, sponsor.

At the November 5th meeting in Bowling Green,
it was voted that certificates of membership be de-
signed and awarded to those schools belonging to
our association. Another project for the year is the
organization and distribution of a G.S.A. Handbook.
All student representatives expressed a strong de-
sire for more "Play Days" sponsored by various high
schools throughout the state. Let's give it a try,
sponsors!

Each school has now received a copy of our
State G.S.A. constitution. We would like for you to
read this carefully and decide on the type of mem-
bership certificate you wish to receive. It would be
nice for all of us to try for the Active Membership.
If you would like the Active Membership, please
send a copy of your local constitution and a state-
ment of your club's adoption of our state associa-
tion constitution to Loyce Meadows, Secretary, K.F.
H.S.G.S.A., Highlands High School, Ft. Thomas. Any
suggestions you have to offer will be appreciated.
Just send them to any of our four officers.

All those who attended the Girls Basketball
Clinic December 3 at Bowling Green High School
enjoyed it very much, and have a better understand-
ing of the girls' rules and the new changes. Our
thanks go to Miss Laura Evans, Southern Illinois
University, and the co-sponsors. The National Sec-
tion for Girls' and Women's Sports and the Ken-
tucky Officials Rating Board. Also our appreciation
goes to Miss Anderson and her students for their
hospitality and use of their facilities.

In our next article we hope to have the names
of our district representatives listed. Your coopera-
tion in acceptance of these positions will be appre-
ciated.

Greenville G.S.A., we hope your annual Christ-
mas dance will be a big success.

The Flying Dutchman

It is Christmas Time in Kentucky, a time when
we all wonder what presents will bring the most
happiness to others. Coaches, principals, officials and
community leaders — here's a tip for the Yule season
which will solve your problem as to the finest gift
which can be given to bring lasting happiness and
at the same time make this Christmas your most
enjoyable.

Somewhere in your community is a kid who
had an accident early in life which has left a
physical or mental scar. There's another who took
a hard jolt when polio left him handicapped. There
are still others who have felt the sting of misfor-
tune as diseases and mishaps of many natures, and
falsely feel that they are no longer a part of things
and cannot engage in sports like their friends. These
kids are unhappy. They need not be because you can
do something about creating new and happier
philosophies of life for them.

You may bankrupt yourselves buying material
Christmas gifts for such youngsters if you want to,
but you'll not bring them the happiness you would
like to in this manner. The Good Samaritan did not
sit down and write a check when he wanted to be
of service, but rather gave of himself. What our
physically-handicapped kids will most appreciate for
Christmas are men willing to give of themselves by
taking an interest in them.

Whether a Kentucky school boy is physically whole
or handicapped, he wants to be a part of his school's
athletic program in some way. He can be a part if
you'll give him a part of you. He can go on to be-
come a happy future citizen and possibly a great
leader, but he can never accomplish this if we fail
to sell him on the idea that one defeat does not
constitute a lifetime, and that he is useful and
needed.

Since 1949 when the Game Guy program be-
came a part of the over-all Kentucky High School
Athletic Association picture, scores of unhappy
kids have not only found joy in living which they
thought was gone forever, but many have gone on
to fight their ways to high positions in everyday
life. What greater victory can come to a coach
than to score foi the "Man Upstairs" by helping
one of these unfortunate kids find himself.

It pays off. Take that from the Dutchman.
Study carefully the picture in this column of Bobby
Kirchdorfer dictating to his secretary, Lou Leedy, in
his athletic commissioner's office of the Jefferson
County Playground and Recreation Board. In this
picture you'll see a happy young man, paralyzed
from his waist down with polio since he was three
years old, doing a superb job of directing all ath-
letics in the Jefferson County Recreation Program.

Ten years ago his teachers worried about Bob's
future. Today he not only out-earns most of them,
but he shows them bow to set up and run their
athletic programs. They lean on this young man
now, the kid who won the first Game Guy Award
in 1949. You fellows in Eastern Kentucky "went
over-board" for him as he accompanied the Plying
Dutchman on that part of his clinic trip, making
a plea to you to give other kids the same break he
got.

How did Bob get his break? His grade school
principal, Mrs. Leona Guttermuth of Mill Creek
School, got him interested in the wheelbarrow race
in a track meet. Bob ran on his hands as a buddy,
Boyd Carter, pushed him. He won that race. When

Bobby Kirchdorfer and Secretary

the realization dawned on this "fighting kid" that
he could be a part of the athletic program, he took
a new lease on life. He went on to Valley High
School where Dick Van Hoose, who is now Superin-
tendent of Schools in Jefferson County, was prin-
cipal. Dick got Bobby interested in managing the
football, baseball and basketball teams.

All of this interest was giving- this kid increased
confidence. One day he announced that he was
going to make athletics his life's work and so he
started to study all phases of athletics. He pitched
on Softball teams, sitting down in the pitcher's box
as he threw. He became an inspiration to other
physically-handicapped boys, with the result that
they started getting in on the fun. Thus it developed
that the interest of a couple of school leaders in
one lad was the best Christmas present which could
have been given.

So the Game Guy idea spread over Kentucky
to reach scores of boys and girls. Hundreds more
still must be reached through your efforts. It will
cost you two cents to send a card to the Plying
Dutchman, Armory Building, Louisville 2, Ken-
tucky, to tell him about your Game Guy and to re-
quest that a Lionheart Lapel award be sent him.
Your dividend will be impossible to measure as you
give some kid this lasting Christmas present.

A Corn Cob Pipe of Honor, tied around the
neck of a Kentucky thoroughbred, is on its way to
Glen McDowell of John's Creek School, and Lion-
heart awards are on their way to Bill Harmon How-
ard and Earl Pinson. Glen rendered unselfish serv-
ice by helping these Game Guys. He has made these
youngsters co-managers of his John's Creek basket-
ball team.

Bill has a deformed right hand and leg, but he
excels in skating and plays basketball, while Earl
is whipping polio which caused one leg to be shorter
than the other. Not only does he hunt, fish and
swim, but he is also chief observer for the Ground
Observer Corps in his area. Both boys are juniors.

Before wishing you all "A Merry Chinstmas"
here are a few personal short shots you'll be inter-
ested in: "Tater" Combs has left his mountain abode
in Harlan to take up residence at 1701 Deer Lane in
Louisville; Walter Combs has moved from Hazard
to Ashland; Dero Downing, assisted by Eddie
Diddle, "Cow Boy" Almond and Jim Jenkins, put

praise has come from official "Hop" Ewing for

Verona High SchooL

Building Character

The athletic coach whose nucleus for the
new season consists of a guard with two left
feet, a muscle bound center and two half-
backs whose mutual interest in life is chas-
ing the same girl, will sometimes smile sadly
and say, "This year I'm building character."
Of course, most of such remarks are on the
facetious side — an admission that the opposi-
tion will probably fatten up their season's
average at his expense. Yet, in the "win or
else" circuit, the impression is often given
that character building is an adjunct of the
athletic program only when the more im-
portant matter of winning games is less than
a remote possibility ; or that the development
of character is forgotten during a winning
season.

The development of desirable traits of
character is not inherent in athletics. The
stress of competition between rival schools
and communities would in itself tend to bring
out only the worst in the competitors. With-
out proper supervision and control, without
the development of good character traits,
physical competition between rival groups
would soon be governed by the law of claw
and fang. If you're a doubting Thomas, read
accounts of the early Gaelic and British
football battles which lasted all day and
where fatalities were a part of the box score.
The fierce, but controlled, competition, the
jet-propelled, but clean, charge, the shatter-
ing, but legal, tackle are things that don't
just happen. Somewhere along the way,
someone has taught a boy that it is possible
to send an adversary crashing to the ground
under a set of rules and traditions which do
not permit teeth marks, brass knucks, zip
guns and groin kicking. Somebody is con-
stantly developing patterns of character un-
der which the "policemen" who supervise
the combat are armed with whistles instead
of night sticks and where gaining yards is
more important than gouging eyes.

Think on these things the next time you
watch a football game, and you should have
a feeling of gratitude to those who, win or
lose, embrace every opportunity to build
character. If character is built only during
the lean years, some ex-champions will have

missed training that is a lot more important
than blocking punts or breaking up pass
patterns. A coach must realize that, win or
lose, many of his kids will not pass his way
again. — Illinois Interscholastic.

From Those on the Firing Line

President Eisenhower didn't ask for our
views about encouraging greater participa-
tion in sports by American youth, if he had,
we could tell quite a bit. We don't know
what suggestions were made by the 32 sports
luminaries, "the greatest array of U. S.
sports stars ever gathered in one place."
Whatever they were, this "meeting at the
summit" might have some good effect if it
directs attention to the constantly growing
needs in facilities and manpower for the
building of physical fitness.

We could use more adequate facilities,
more manpower and a rededication to the
belief that the democratic ideal is consist-
ent with the slogan "a sport for everyone
and everyone in a sport." We reaffirm our
faith in the importance of amateur sports
which stimulate equitable competition and
good sportsmanship and in the principle that
high school sports are at their best when
conducted by the proper school authorities
who will keep them articulated with the total
school program and in harmony with proven
educational standards. If anyone can devise
ways of increasing opportunity for partici-
pation through expansion of established
machinery, we know we can count on a fine
response from high school students.

In progress toward an adequate fitness
program, our schools have something tang-
ible to show for their efforts. Last year's re-
ports show that 31 different interscholastic
sports were sponsored. Participation in at
least 17 of these sports showed an increase
over the previous year. 57% of our schools
had competition in 8 or more sports, an ap-
preciable increase over any previous year.
In at least 3 sections of the state, more than
three-fourths of the schools sponsored 8 or
more sports. 170 high schools now offer
training in 12 or more sports.

All of the recent talk about a broadened
sports program is interesting. Those who
are on the firing line are always looking for
more effective ways of doing an important
job. It is understandable why they are
somewhat gun-shy of loud noises astern un-
less they are confident that the barrage is
being laid down by experienced and trusted
marksmen. — Secretary John K. Archer (New
York).

The 1955 Cross Country

The St. Joseph Prep School won the third official
K.H.S.A.A. Cross Country Run, which was held in
Lexington on November 12. First place was won by
Press Whelan of St. Joe, who was also first place
winner in 1954. Whelan's time was 11:05.3. The
team was coached by Brother Berard.

The Trimble County High School team, coached
by D. R. Hutchinson, Jr., won second place. Mr.
Hutchinson had won the event in 1953 with his
Breckinridge County team and in 1954 with his
Trimble County team. The Flat Gap High School
runners, coached by Francis Stapleton, placed third.

The Run was held on the Picadome Golf Course,
and was managed by the Spiked Shoe Society of
the University of Kentucky. Charles Tye is presi-
dent of the organization. The course was laid off
for a distance of something more than two miles.

One hundred forty-one boys took part in the
Cross Country. The order in which the first fifty
of these finished is given below, including the times
of the first twenty-five.

Suggestions

A K.H.S.A.A. registered official said in a
letter written not long ago to the Commis-
sioner: "I believe that all schools should use
contracts to hire their officials. 1 have signed
only one contract since I first started of-
ficiating. The coaches have been very unfair
in some instances in kicking officials out of
games, and also there is a habit of some of-
ficials cancelling small games to take big
games. This should be corrected."

The principal of a member school said in
a letter written to the State Office last
spring: "We are increasingly aware during
the past two or three years that many of-
ficials are negligent in the matter of arriv-
ing on time. We hear complaints, too, that
many referees allow warm-up periods be-
tween games to drag out to unreasonable
length."

These are justifiable complaints, and there
is no reason for the problems mentioned not
being solved by the persons involved, namely,
school administrators and registered of-
ficials.

BASKETBALL QUESTIONS

(Continued from Page One)
Ruling: There is nothing in the indicated cir-
cumstances to prevent the score from counting. The
fact that the clock is not running does not prevent
the scoring of points. In the outlined situation, it
seems apparent that there would be some difference
of opinion as to whether the 3 seconds had expired
before the ball was in flight for the try. In question-
able circumstances of this kind, the Referee would
have no reason for failure to count the basket.
Comment: Modification of the outlined circum-
stances might result in a different situation. If
there should be mechanical failure of the official
timepiece or if there was a dispute between the two
Timers so that it is quite obvious that prejudice had
a bearing on the situation or that the time taken
to score the field goal was very clearly in excess of
the remaining time to be played, the Official has
some discretionary authority. However-, in such
cases, a good Official would, in the outlined cir-
cumstances, be alerted to a possible irregularity of
this kind and would make preparations for it.

29. Play: On the 1st free throw by Al of a
bonus penalty, ball is tapped by tall A2: (a) while it
is on the basket ring; or (b) while it is bouncing
above the basket. In either case, the tapped ball
goes through the basket. Does goal count and is a
bonus free throw awarded?

Ruling: In (a), the tapping of the ball by A2 is a
violation which immediately causes the ball to be-
come dead. Also, touching by A2 ends the free throw
so that it cannot be successful. Hence, no point is
scored and no bonus free throw is permitted. In
(b), the act by A2 is legal. His touching of the ball
ends the free throw but does not cause the ball to
become dead. A field goal is credited to A2. Since
the free throw is not successful, no bonus free throw
is awarded.

30. Play: What should be the procedure if two
violations or a violation and a foul occur simultan-
eously?

Ruling: An experienced Official will not see
two of these occurring at exactly the same time,
unless it is one of those rare combinations where
the acts must be treated as having happened simul-
taneously. Here are illustrations. CASE I: Running
by Al and a foul by Bl occur at nearly the same
time. An experienced Official will always see one
of them as having occurred first. If the i-unning
occurs first, any subsequent common foul is ig-
nored because it occurred after ball became dead.
If the foul occurs first, that kills the ball and there
is no such thing as running during a dead ball. The

procedure in cases of this kind is the same as that
which is followed in Case II. CASE II: Al throws
for goal at about the time his foot touches the
sideline. The Official will never rule that the ball
leaving the hand and the foot touching the sideline
are simultaneous. He will see one as having occurred
before the other and that determines whether the
goal counts. There are many other similar situations
where the Official would be in a difficult situation
and without rules coverage if he were to declare
that certain acts are simultaneous. In contrast, there
are a few situations where there are double viola-
tions which cannot be avoided. CASE III: During a
free throw by Al, Bl and A2 are both in the lane
too soon. If these two violations are simultaneous,
there is rules coverage and the ball is next put in
play by a jump at the free throw line. Even if the
acts are not simultaneous, the net result may be
the same as if they were simultaneous. If the vio-
lation by Bl occurs first, this does not kill the ball
immediately. When A2 then enters, the ball is still
alive and the free thi-ow has not ended. Consequently,
it is a violation by each team and is administered
the same as if the two acts were simultaneous.
CASE IV: During jump ball, non-jumpers A2 and
B2 are in the restraining cylinder before the tap.
While it is possible for these two acts to occur
simultaneously, one usually precedes the other.
When the first violation occurs, it causes the ball
to remain dead. No advantage can then be gained
by the second player's entry. The first act is penaliz-
ed as a violation.

31. Play: Thrower-in Al is outside the end line.
He throws the ball: (a) against the back of the
backboard, receives the rebound while he is still out
of bounds and then makes the throw-in; or (b)
he throws the ball across a corner of the court and
out of bounds at the side without the ball having
been in the court. He then receives the ball back
and makes the throw-in.

Ruling: The ball has not become alive in eithe*.
of these cases. About the only specific regulation
which would be violated is that concerning the 5-
second time limit. In practically all cases, the act
would consume more than the 5 seconds and, in
case of doubt, the Official would usually rule it a
violation of the time limit rule. Unless it is such a
violation, the act should probably be treated the
same as if the thrower-in were to bounce the ball
on the floor out of bounds a time or two before
picking it up and making the throw-in. There is
nothing in the rules to prevent such bouncing, al-
though the rules do prohibit him from throwing the
ball to the floor out of bounds so that it bounces
into the court. In this case, the throw-in has not
gone directly into the court.

32. Play: Al throws ball at B's basket, (a)
While he is in the act of throwing, there is a foul
by Bl and the ball goes in the basket; or (b) Vv^hile
ban is in flight toward the basket, time for a period
expires; or (c) while ball is rolling on the ring, it is
tapped by A2, after which it falls in or out.

Ruling: Since an attempt at the wrong basket
is not a "try for goal" as defined in Rule 4-20
the continuing motion rule does not apply and the
exception to the dead ball rule for a ball in flight
does not apply. But the touching of the ball on the
ring as outlined in 9-10 applies to any situation, re-
gardless of whether it is a try for goal. In all three
situations, ball becomes dead immediately. The goal
does not count in any of the three situations. How-
ever, in (c), it is a violation (basket interference)

and the penalty for this particular violation is the
awarding of 2 points. If the penalty under 4-10
and 11 were followed literally, the 2 points would
be awarded to "the thrower." Obviously, it is not
the intent to count 2 points for the thrower when
the infraction has prevented the possible scoring of 2
points for the opponent. If any points are awarded,
they should be awarded to the team at whose basket
the infraction occurred. Until adequate coverage is
provided, it is fortunate that this combination of
circumstances will rarely, if ever, occur and that
the Official will, in any doubtful case, not see the
violation.

33. Play: Al receives a pass. He throws the
ball against the Official or against the leg or back
of Bl, then catches the ball and dribbles. Is this
legal ?

Ruling: If the ball is thrown against the Of-
ficial, the player has always completed a dribble
(air dribble) when he catches the ball. He may not
dribble again. The same thing applies if he throws
the ball against B except that if the pass is long
enoug'h or the circumstances are such that Al
has lost control when he passes the ball, his first
dribble ends with loss of control. Since the ball
has touched an opponent while out of his control,
he is permitted to dribble again. From this, it will
be obvious that the Official must exercise some
judgment. In many cases, Al will pass the ball with
the intention of having it go to a teammate. If
such a pass is touched by B, it is common practice
to assume that player control was lost and that
when Al again secures control, he has a right to
dribble in accordance with Rule 9-5c. Also see Play
425.

There is a Good Reason — or is There?

NOTE: Somewhat similar questions were dis-
tributed last year. Six resulted in rules improve-
ments. This new set provides food for thought.

ABOUT THE DRIBBLE:

1. Why should touching the ball with both
hands simultaneously end a dribble?

2. Why should pivot foot rights be different
in starting a dribble?

ABOUT FOULS:

3. Why is a bat (which is not a try) considered
continuing motion?

ABOUT JUMP BALL:

4. Why shouldn't ball become alive when ball
leaves Official's hand on the toss?

ABOUT BASKET INTERFERENCE:

5. Why shouldn't basket interference be made
a technical foul ?

6. If Al throws at B's basket and A2 taps it
while it is on the ring, is penalty correct in stating
that 2 points are awarded "the thrower"?

ABOUT THE THROWJN:

7. Why shouldn't ball become alive when a
throw-in touches a player even if in the meantime
it has gone through the basket for no score?

GENERAL:

8. Why isn't the commonly used term "false
double foul" to indicate a pair of fouls which is not
a double foul, recognized in the rules ?

9. Should properly reacting rubber-covered
basketballs have official standing?

10. Why should i throw-in after a goal be dif-
ferent from other throw-ins ?

11. Why shouldn't the broken line arc in the
free throw lane be one inch in width and with only
a few segments to indicate the circle?

12. Are the lower 6 or 8 inches and sharp
corners of the large backboard necessary?

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR DECEMBER, 1955

To All Coaches From KAPOS

One of the g-oals of the Kentucky Association
of Pep Organizations sponsors is to encourage
school administi'ators to appoint an approved fac-
ulty member to sponsor the cheerleading and baton
twirling- groups.

A well qualified chaperone for all off-campus
trips should be a MUST for all schools. At times
the role of chaperone can be a difficult as well as
an expensive one. No chaperone should be em-
barrassed by having to pay her own expenses on
these trips.

In order to alleviate some of this expense, the
KAPOS organization obtained permission from the
Kentucky Principals' Association to have all KAPOS
membership cards honored when the sponsor is in
the act of chaperoning the visiting team.

The purpose of this article is to notify all
coaches of this new ruling and to ask their co-
operation in notifying all ticket sellers and ticket
takers of the rule. Our organization would deplore
any abuse of this generous offer, and sincerely hopes
that no sponsor will try to have others admitted
on her membership card.

May we take this opportunity to thank the prin-
cipals and coaches for their cooperation in this
matter, and to ask you to encourage your sponsor
to join the KAPOS organization. We need your help
in improving standards of conduct, caliber of cheers,
etc., so JOIN NOW! Send your $1.00 to Miss Phyllis
Kloecker, College of Education, University of Ken-
tucky, and she will promptly send you your KAPOS
membership card.

FOOTBALL AND BASKETBALL STA-
TISTICS: The collecting of accurate data in
football and basketball has permitted a
scientific approach to problems connected
with the games. Football statistics have
played a vital role in determining manv of
the actions of the National Federation Foot-
ball Committee. In some cases, data have
warranted positive action which has improv-
ed the game. In other cases, data have pre-
vented proposed action which might have
had a bad effect on the game. Ill lustrations
include the following. At one time, senti-
ment was about 50-50 as to whether all
plastic helmets should be prohibited. On one
occasion, a tentative vote outlawed such
equipment. A further study of available
data indicated that there was no evidence
that helmets with a plastic construction
were any more dangerous than those con-
structed of fiber covered with leather. In
the meantime, it became apparent that a
heavy helmet and one which does not per-
mit proper ventilation results in fatigue
which is, in itself, a safety hazard. During
the past several years, more than three-
fourths of all helmet shells are of plastic

construction. Some have web suspension,
some have rubber padding and others have
both for maximum protection. If the foot-
ball rules had outlawed such construction,
progress would have been prevented.

In basketball, many of the recent develop-
ments in the game have come from a study
of data secured by reliable statisticians who
have collected statistics during state-spon-
sored games and meets.

State Associations differ in the extent to
which machinery is set up for the collec-
tion of such statistics. At a recent meeting
of the Tennessee Board of Control, it was
voted to employ a game statistician for the
1956 tournaments. In some states this work
is done in return for a front row seat at the
tournament.

Correction

BASKETBALL CASE BOOK

Play 254, item (b) might be affected by
the new rule which awards two throws for
a flagrant technical foul. In second line of
play 381, substitute "but" for "out."

BASKETBALL MEETING FOLDER

In second line of play 18 on page 9, re-
verse Bl and Al. In key at bottom of page
11, the second answer in question 7 should
be "no" instead of "yes." In formulae table
on page 12, the figures in the second and
third lines should be ignored. The total value
of the bonus penalty should be .67 and for
the 2-throw penalty it is .72.

BOWLING : The Junior Bowling Congress,
under sponsorship of Secretary Milton Ray-
mer, has adopted the rule which was dis-
cussed at the annual meeting of the Federa-
tion. This regulation of the Junior Bowling
Congress is in harmony with policies of most
State High School Associations. It provides
that if a junior bowler accepts money prizes
or similar prizes as a reward for his bowling
ability, he becomes ineligible to participate
in the Junior Bowling program. One purpose
of the regulation is to reduce the number of
cases where the high school eligibility might
be affected through the acceptance of an
award. Secretary Raymer and his executive
body deserve commendation for this pro-
gressive step.

Let's Leave Our Boxing Gloves At Home

Play ball! That's the cry heard around
Kentucky this week. The same cry is heard
here in Rockcastle as the three county schools
open their basketball season.

All three county teams appear set, says our
sport writer, Lyle Underwood, to give each
other and the rest of the district a "run for
its money." And on hand will probably be
more spectators than at any time in recent
years. All will be Dulling for their favorite
team. That's fine. But behind that support is
a danger — especially this year.

Let's look at that danger and its conse-
quences. It's the fourth quarter. Two minutes
left to play. One point separates the two
teams. The pep clubs are "whoopin' it up."
Nerves are taut. Although the moment won't
matter so much tomorrow, right now it mat-
ters a great deal.

Suddenly, one of the fans sees an incident
on the playing floor that is inevitable in the
rouffh and tumble game. He seizes on it and
screams a none too comolimentary phrase.
Someone wants to defend the honor of the
school and the battle is on.

Another situation would see two opposing
players lose their wits and resort to their
fists.

Regardless of the situation, the next day
brine-s the bitter news and the crying towel.
Ted Sanford. Commissioner of the Kentucky
Hisrh School Athletic Association, has sus-
pended the teams from furt,her competition.

Suspension can happen. When it comes, it's
not easy to take. Ask the team that's had
one. All the team and school can do is try to
live it down. Sometimes they never do.

We are told basketball is getting to be big
and serious business. Mr. Sanford and Ken-
tuckv officials have been trvinoc to tie the
wildcat they have had by the tail. Indications
are, they'll stand for no foolishness this year.
They intend to control plavers and spectators,
and if unable to do so in some scattered in-
stances, then the school and town will have
to bear the financial and sportsmanship loss.
They're ready to "lower the boom."

In this season, like all seasons, both sjjec-

tators and players must be ready to bear part
of the responsibility for loss of prestige and
recognition. The school must always be held
responsible whether it is or not.

It all boils down to this : A player who can-
not control his temper does not deserve to
play. No team unable to abide by the decis-
ion of a referee (right or wrong) deserves to
compete. No school which cannot teach its
players sportsmanship and good conduct
along with basketball deserves to floor a
team. No fan unable to take the losses with
the wins deserves a team to support.

When the going gets roughest this year
and the winning point doesn't come, refrain
from punching the guy in front of you in the
nose, or swatting the lady with your purse.
Remember this paraphrase of a line on love
from a poem by Alfred Lord Tennyson: 'Tis
better to have plaved and lost, than never to
have played at all.'

Key Man More Ways Than One
By Burns Bennett, Montgomery Advertiser

Editor's Note; This article should probably have appeared
early in the fall since it refers mostly to football. However,
there is a messagre in it for every coach.

You're the high school football coach. This
is your time of the year. All over America
thousands of young men are busy these days
collecting new crops of callouses, building
better blisters, and mangling with the
muscles.

Maybe you don't realize how important you
are. You're buildinp- impressions that will
last forever. A million kids are watching
your every move — modeling themselves after
their coach.

You take a lot of kidding. One of the stock
stories for the Monday Morning Quarter-
backers and Touchdowners concerns the
high school coach in the little town. His
season had been somewhat less than terrific.
The only way he could have lost more games
would have been to schedule more.

The practice field was across the highway
from the school, building in this suburban
area. Each afternoon the young gentlemen
with biceps and bruises would dress in the
school basement and cross the road to the
practice grid.

"Approved" and "Certified" Officials

One hundred twenty-nine basketball officials
have qualified for the "Certified" rating this year,
and fifty-three have received the "Approved" rating.
The latter rating does not carry foi-ward from year
to year, but must be earned each year. After an
official has received the "Certified" rating, he keeps
this rating by clinic attendance. Only officials re-
ceiving these higher ratings are eligible to work in
the regional tournaments. Only "Certified" officials,
who are residents of Kentucky, are eligible to work
in the State Tournament.

Basketball officials who qualified for advanced
ratings during the current season are as follows:

The Flying Dutchman

Got a letter in the mail saying, "Dutchman,
how about letting us know through your
column in the Athlete how your various pro-
jects function and what they are?" This re-
minded us of something Talt Stone said a
few years ago when the Dutchman was con-
sidering dropping an activity because he
doubted it was doing as much good as he
had hoped for.

Said Talt, "Just because you don't hear
from people, don't get the idea that a pro-
gram is not clicking. You got to keep 'plug-
ging away.' Make a list some time of your
projects and get somebody to evaluate it,
and you'll get all the encouragement any-
body will ever need." Talt was so right in his
thinking.

Four communications this month answer
the request for information on the activities
of the Flying Dutchman which are purely
philanthropic endeavors. One was from a
cheerful crippled kid, another came from a
proud school principal whose school had just
been recognized with an Abou Ben Adhem
award, a third was a happy long distance
telephone call from a chap who had received
a Corn Cob Pipe of Honor citation for un-
selfish service, while the fourth came from
a service man away down south in Florida,
who said, "Keep writing the column."

When a physically-handicapped kid says,
"My award did something for me," and a
school principal tells you that his entire
community felt honored because his school
had been recognized for good neighbor prac-
tices, and another chap spends a couple of
bucks on a telephone call because he got a
"lift" from receiving a cob pipe, then you
know Talt had something when he said. "You
have got to make a list some time and eval-
uate."

There is a new Flying Dutchman project

in the "hopper" for the New Year of 1956,
The Youth Ambassadors of Friendship To
Mexico.

All of the Flying Dutchman readers re-
member the first such breath-taking venture
which took place in June of 1955, when
eighty-five teen-age boys and girls from the
Commonwealth of Kentucky astonished the
world by flying to Cuba for the purpose of
developing future friendships which might
cause the world to be a friendlier place in a
few years because kids from one country
made friendships with those of another by
personally visiting and getting to know and
like them.

You will recall how the Government of
Cuba reciprocated by sending a plane load of
their own youngsters to Kentucky to keep
that spirit of future friendships between na-
tions alive. Those Kentucky kids raised by
their own efforts and through the sponsor-
ships of adults willnig to invest in them more
than $22,000 to finance this Friendship
Flight. Winners of the Corn Cob Pipes of
Honor became "Buck Sponsors" and helped
by their sponsorships to the extent of $350.
The avalanche of encouragement received
by the Dutchman from all of you was heart-
warming.

Take a look at some of the reactions which
were occasioned by the first Youth Ambas-
sador of Friendship Flight to Cuba: LOOK
Magazine, "Kentucky kids conquer Cuba;"
Courier-Journal, "The ways of diplomacy are
reported in some circles to be rather rugged.
But the way the eighty-five Youth Ambas-
sadors handled their first experience in in-
ternational relations made it look like a
breeze ;" Vice-President Richard Nixon,
"Congratulations on a job well-done. You
have made an important contribution to in-
ternational goodwill and understanding;"
Miami Beach Sun, "Those Kentucky kids
proved that their State is equally famous
for its courteous youngsters as it is for its
blue grass and derby races ;" U. S. Embassy,
Havana, Cuba, "Kentucky's Youth Ambas-
sadors made a host of friends for the United
States on their recent visit to Cuba;" Presi-
dent Fulgencio Batista of Cuba, "You are an
outstanding group. By your individual and
collective initiative you have earned the
privilege of sponsoring a great cause."

Without the influence and help of friends
of The Flying Dutchman it is a certainty that
there could never have been that first Youth
Ambassador of Good Will project. It was the
moral and financial support given by Ken-
tucky's athletic leaders, school men and of-
ficials, and even those Dutchman readers

Page Twelve

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR JANUARY, 1956

beyond the boundaries of Kentucky which in-
spired this youth movement and caused the
eyes of the nation to focus on Kentucky.
When our State Department, our Vice-Presi-
dent, senators, congressmen and countless
Kentuckians urged the Dutchman to organ-
ize a second Youth Ambassador of Friend-
ship Flight to Mexico in 1956, his first
thought was to present it to Flying Dutch-
man readers and if he had their support he'd
be willing to make the gigantic effort again.

Address a letter to The Flying Dutchman,
Armory Building, Louisville, Ky., giving him
your reaction to the proposed Youth Am-
bassador of Friendship Flight to Mexico,
letting him know if he has your backing in
flying kids talented in athletics and other
fields to another country to build friendships
for the future.

Watched George Conley and Tommy Bell
team together in officiating a basketball
game between Western and Alabama, and
could not help but think that the training
program of the K.H.S.A.A. was paying big
dividends even outside the high school circles.
There were several occasions when situa-
tions arose where each had to cover for the
other and did so with perfection. It was a real
pleasure to watch those two make a tough
job look easy.

Presently, the K.H.S.A.A. training pro-
gram is going on in all of the sixteen regions
of the state, and good reports are coming in
from the regional clinic directors who are
doing the jobs out in the field.

Harlan's Johnny Crosthwaite has already
conducted four training sessions, and here
are his results : 55 took his training at Man-
chester, 80 attended at Barbourville, 40 were
at his clinic at Pineville, while 150 crowded
into the hall at Harlan. Johnny has two more
planned at Benham and Loyall and will cover
all the high schools in the 52nd district dur-
ing the season. Remember that there are
fifteen other such clinic directors besides
Johnny teaching our officials in the other
regions. Give your K.H.S.A.A. credit for a
terrific training program for officials.

HAPPY NEW YEAR !

Girls' State Basketball Clinic

On Saturday, December 3, 1955. a Ba.sket-
ball Clinic was held at Bowling Green High
School, Bowling Green, Kentucky. The clinic
was conducted by Dr. Lura Evans of South-
ern Illinois University, Carbondale, Illinois.
Approximately one hundred and ten attend-
ed, representing seven high schools and three
colleges.

With some fifty girls participating, special

Officers of K.A.P.O.S., the Kentucky Associa-
tion of Pep Organization Sponsors, are, reading
from left to right: Miss Phyllis Kloecker, Treasurer
(University School); Mrs. Grace Fragstein, Presi-
dent (Lafayette); Mrs. Stella S. Gilb, Executive-
Secretary (University of Kentucky); Mrs. Jane
McCoy, Vice-President (Shelbyville).

attention was given to some of the basic
skills in basketball. These included running,
evading, jumping, using limited dribble and
combining the dribble with a running screen.
Following the skills sessions, Miss Evans
gave an interpretation of the rules as estab-
lished by the National Section for Girls' and
Women's Sports. Some essential rules were
discussed and demonstrated along with an
explanation of the new N.S.G.W.S. rule
changes.

The techniques of officiating were demon-
strated by Miss Peggy Stanaland, University
of Louisville, and Miss Dottie Taylor, East-
ern High School, Middletown, Kentucky.
Many of the teachers and some of the stu-
dents did some practice officiating. This
concluded a most successful day of basket-
ball for girls in the Southwestern part of
the state.

The state was indeed fortunate in having
the capable leadership of Dr. Lura Evans.
She has long been a leader in the promotion
of N.S.G.W.S. standards and has made num-
erous contributions to girls' basketball.

Ratings in basketball officiating will be
be given in several areas in the state this
year. Definite plans have been made for these
ratings in Bowling Green, Morehead, Lex-
ington and Louisville. For additional infor-
mation concerning basketball ratings con-
tact Miss Peggy Stanaland, Kentucky Of-
ficial Rating Board Chairman, University of
Louisville, Louisville, Kentucky.

Thoug-htfully, the city h^d provided warn-
ing signs for motorists who were want to
come whizzinor hell for leather down this
narticular artery. It said: "Drive carefully.
Don't injure our Dlayers!" Below this some-
one had carefully written in with chalk:
"Wait for the coach !"

But of course, this is just a joke. You are
probably the most influential man in your
community in the vouthful set these days.
You can afford to do no wrong because all
eyes are upon you. You set the examples.

This same instructor in punts and nasses
set public speech classes in our school back
10 years. Since time immemorial instructors
have been trying to impress upon budding
William Jenninp-s Brvans that they should
allow the hands to swing freely and naturally
when addressing an audience. This coach al-
ways kept his hands in his pocket when
speaking to a grour), or making a pep meet-
ing talk. Furthermore, he'd jingle coins in his
pocket while delivering his priceless
forensics.

To this day when I get uo before a crowd
I frequently keep mv h^nds in mv pocket and
finger loose chan"-e. I don't think I was anv
more impressionable than the average kid.
Never underestim-^te vour influence, Coach.

You've got an important job. You get hold
of most of these youngsters just as thev've
reached the awkward age — the awkward age
is that embarrassing oeriod when the average
youth discovers that he knows more than his
father. He's setting aside the cocoon of youth
for the robes of manhood. So Coach it's your

athletic heroes have been coming and going

Daymen Day
IN MEMORIAM

Daymon Day died Sunday morning, Novem-
ber 6, at his home in Bedford, Kentucky. He
had been employed by the Trimble County
Board of Education at the beginning of the
current school year, and was Principal of
Trimble County High School.

Mr. Day was a native of Hart County. He
attended College High in Bowling Green, and
graduated from Western State College. Since
college, he had served in the capacities of
teacher and attendance officer in Hart Coun-
ty, and as coach and principal at Sonora,
Upton, Memorial High and Corinth. He had
been affiliated with school work for the past
eighteen years.

Mr. Day was a member of the Baptist
Church, Lions Club and Masonic Lodge. His
sudden death, due to a heart attack, was a
great shock to his family and multitude of
friends.

that athletic fame dies as quickly as a tropic-
al flower — and stays dead just as long.
There's nothing as pathetic as the man who
tries to spend the rest of his life living in
the reflected glow of a greateness that's gone.

Tell him, Coach, that the fellows who jump
up and yell their heads off when he tears
around end for 20-yards today, will have a
hard time remembering his name five years
from now. (Let me see, who WAS the cap-
tain on my senior team?)

Your most important job. Coach, is to let
him know about the touchdowns in the real
game of life. Football is a good teacher. You

can stress that teamwork and cooperation and
living clean and giving his best pays off. But
there's more to life than that. Much more.

So, Coach, you, like Caesar's wife, must be
above suspicion. You've got to show the way.
As you go, so goes the squad — for a mighty
long time.

"MEAN TO— Don't Get No Cotton Picked"

Many years ago a sage old black philoso-
pher spoke a truth that has been handed
down over the years and has become a folk
saying, "Mean to — don't get no cotton
picked !"

Probably there is not a principal or coach
anywhere who does not at times resolve to
take definite action to improve the sports-
manship at the athletic contests in which
his teams oarticioate. It may be that the
attitude of the players is not just what it
should be; or the nroblem mav be with stu-
dent or adult spectators. Whatever the prob-
lem, it is usually a difficult one — so difficult
in manv cases that the principal or coach
nuts off the task of attacking it, and soon
the season is so far gone that he succumbs
to the idea that it is too late to start anything

Sportsmanship

The teaching of reasonable and fair human be-
havior is a continuing process. The stresses which
center around the loyalties and group prestige as-
sociated with athletic contests are a proving ground
on which each individual is tested. Because the
school group and the circumstances snri-ounding the
contests are constantly changing, the job of develop-
ing right attitudes never ends.

It is a perpetual challenge to the school and ath-
letic administrator. Because any g'iven group has a
small percentage of individuals who lack inhibitions
and who have little apnreciation of social obliga-
tions, the disappointments are many but compensat-
ing rewards are in the satisfaction which comes
from directing energies into desirable channels.

The athletic program has many values. Far
from the least of these is the providing of oppor-
tunity for an army of non-pai-ticipants to ex-
perience the satisfaction which conies from working
in a common cause without the excesses which un-
inhibited behavior would produce. Setting up the
machinery for utilizing this opportunity is a job
worthy of the best efforts of the entire school staff.

The Referee

(Lament of a Disqualified Player)

The Referee runs up and down

And tears his thinning hair.
He yells and blows his whistle with

A John L. Lewis air.
He glowers when I take a step

Or brush against my guard
And if I chance to hack a man

He throws the book — and hard.

The Referee's a flighty bird ;

He has an eagle eye.
I can't get any foul past him

No matter how I try.
But if my guard hangs on my neck

Or smacks my ears down flat,
The Referee ain't lookin', or

He's blind as any bat.

The Referee's a hard boiled egg,

A domineering guy.
And if I try to sass him back

I kiss the game good-bye.
I take his bum decrees and smile,

Don't say what Pd like to say.
But the son-of-a-gun is psychic.

He throws me out for just

Lookin' that way!

Report on the National Federation Winter Meeting

The Kentucky High School Athletic Associa-
tion and the Kentucky Hig-h School Coaches Charity
Association were represented at the National Fed-
eration meeting, held in Nashville, Tennessee, on
January 4-7, by Commissioner Theo. A. Sanford;
Dr. Lyman V. Ginger. Football Committee mem-
ber; Supt. Robert P. Forsythe, Board of Control
member; Prin. Joe Ohr of the Irvine High School,
Secretary of the Kentucky Coaches Charity Asso-
ciation; and Athletic Director Edgar McNabb of
the Beechwod High School, President of the coaches
organization.

The three day meeting, which included sessions
for state executive officers and for members of
the National Federation Football Committee, was
held in the Andrew Jackson Hotel. Delegates from
forty states were in attendance.

Mr. H. V. Porter, Executive Secretary of the
National Federation, summarized for members of
the Football Committee the more important rule
modifications which received the approval of that
committee at the meeting. Mr. Porter's summary
follows:

CHECK-UP ON 1955 CODE: 20,000 football
questionaires were distributed and approximately
5500 were returned and tabluated. The complete
minutes contain a summary of the vote on each
of the listed items and a tabulation of the comments
which were made on the back of the questionnaire.
The returns indicate a high degree of satisfaction
with the changes which were made for last season.
The_ last seasons revisions which had to do with
setting a maximum length for shoe cleats and with
the use of white stripes on the sleeve of a jersey
were approved by more than 30 to 1. Beginning
with the season of 1956, no shoe cleat longer than
% inch may be used. Beginning with the season
of 1957, no white stripe on the jersey below the
elbow may be used. Questionnaire item 3 which
gave expanded coverage for certain infrequent ille-
gal forward pass situations was approved by a
vote of more than 4 to 1. A minority felt that one
or two inequities remain. A majority seem to be-
lieve that these few claimed inequities are more
than offset by improvements in related situations,
^tem 4 which gives the snapper the same foot rights
as any other lineman was approved by a vote of
more than 30 to 1. Items 5 and 6 were approved
bv more than 9 to 1. The dissenting minority was
doubtful as to one or two features of the revision
which increases the number of possible cases where
two fouls related to the same down do not result
in_ a double or multiple foul. Since each foul is ad-
ministered as an independent infraction, there is a
slight possibility of having a measurement in one
direction immediately followed by a measurement
in the opposite direction. Action by the Commit-
tee eliminates some of these for 1956. The present
set of signals as used by Officials is approved by
more than 6 to 1. The dissenting minority is of
the opinion that there should be two separate sig-

nals for offensive and defensive holding or that the
clasping of the wrist should be used instead of
the current signal of hacking the wrist.

During the course of the meeting, slight modifi-
cations were adopted to take care of most of the
objection to item 3 (procedure when penalty for
an illegal forward pass is declined) and items 5 and
6 (relationship of automatic acceptance or declina-
tion of a penalty to a double or multiple foul).

THE SIMPLIFICATION AND ORDERLY AR-
RANGEMENT of the rules as in the Federation
Code are, according to report, becoming more wide-
ly understood and appreciated.

COMMITTEE REPORTS: Reports from the
various standing committees provided a wealth
of material upon which to base action of the rules
committee. Complete copy of reports from the
Safety, Equipment, Statistical, Game Administra-
tion and Research committees is included in the
complete minutes.

AUTHORIZED RULES REVISIONS

Page 4: A slight change in the small field
diagram will make it clear that the field should be
marked by 5-yard intervals. It will also be stated
that where possible, hash marks at 1-yard intervals
should be placed at each inbounds line.

1-3-1: This article will be revised to give rub-
ber or composition-covered footballs which have
been approved as meeting proper reaction and dura-
bility standards the same status as that of a
leather-covered ball. It will also be provided that
if the two competing teams cannot agree on whether
a leather-covered ball or a ball with another type
cover shall be used, each team may designate at
the beginning of a half which type ball will be used
when that team snaps or free kicks.

1-4-1 and 3-4-2: In each of these articles, an
added statement will make it clear that any player
may request a time-out provided the coach of that
team has authorized such action. Otherwise, only
Captain may request time-out.

1-5-1: A revision of the last sentence will fur-
ther emphasize the desirability of equipping each
player with a flexible mouth guard and/or a face
protector. Supplementary material will state that
the proper committees are attemping to set mini-
mum standards which must be met by any such de-
vice if it is to be approved. If and when such
standards are drawn up, the committee vsrill con-
sider making the wearing of approved equipment
mandatory for the season of 1957.

1-5-3-d: The last sentence will be deleted
and the second sentence will be expanded to make
it clear that no cleat longer than % inch may be
used. The note will state that certain soft material
cleats as tested by a durometer will be approved
for specified experimental use. Such cleats may
have a thickness at the free end of less than the
prescribed % inch or % inch provided that the
thickness shall not be less than % inch.

News About Swimming

The 1956 State High School Swimming
Meet was scheduled originally to be held in
Lexington on Saturday, March 31. It appears
now that the meet will be held on April 7.

Although the State Swimming Committee
and the Board of Control have not completed
the preparation of swimming regulations for
the state affair, it is safe to assume that
these regulations will be essentially the same
as those in effect last year.

Class A schools will include those high
schools with an enrollment of 750 or more
(grades 9-12), Class B will include those
schools with an enrollment between 300

and 750, and Class C will be schools with an
enrollment of less than 300. Any school may
enter a class above its classification, and any
school entering a team in the meet for the
first time may enter the class below its
classification.

The method of entering teams in the meet
will be the same as in past years, with the
State Office supplying entry blanks to the
schools whose principals have indicated that
they will enter teams in the meet. The As-
sociation will probably make the same allow-
ance to participants for transportation, lodg-
ing and meals, as is given State Track Meet
participants, this allowance applying to not
more than two participants in each event.
Expenses for the swimming coach will be
paid if the school has as many as four en-
tries in the State Meet.

Allotment of State Tournament Tickets

Followers of teams winning the regional
basketball tournaments will have an oppor-
tunity to purchase State Tournament tickets
from their school principals under a ticket
allotment plan similar to the one which has
been in effect for the past several years.
Approximately 1700 sets of tickets, calling
for seats in the end and corner sections of
the Coliseum, will be saved for the supporters
of the regional winners. These tickets will
be allotted to the schools involved on the
basis of their enrollments, and the allot-
ments will be made only to the schools with
teams competing in any particular session.
Principals of these schools wil be advised
concerning their allotments early in the week
of the State Tournament.

By-Law 21

School administrators and coaches should
check their schedules carefully and see to it
that their teams are not playing more than
the number of basketball games allowed un-
der the provisions of K.H.S.A.A. By-Law 21.
In only one county, conference or invitational
tournament may the games played by a team
representing a member school count as only
one game. If a team plays in more than one
of these tournaments, the one in which the
mo.st games are played may be counted as
the one game mentioned in the By-Law.
Protection Fund News

Three hundred nine member schools of the
K.H.S.A.A. had insured their athletes with
the Protection Fund at the time this issue
of the magazine went to press. Five hundred
forty-two claims, totaling $11,833.71, have
been paid since July 1.

Dr. Ginger Honored

Near the close of the meeting of the Na-
tional Federation Football Rules Committee,
held recently in Nashville, Tennessee, Execu-
tive Secretary Sam Burke of the Georgia
High School Association, chairman of the
committee mentioned, presented for the na-
tional organization several citations for out-
standing services in the field of athletics.
Among these citations was one for Dean
Lyman V. Ginger of the University of Ken-
tucky staff, who has been a member of the
committee for several years. The citation
was in recognition of the contributions made
by Dr. Ginger to the national organization.

Board Election

The terms of Board of Control members
for Sections 7 and 8 expire on June 30. Two
men have been nominated for membership

on the Board by principals of Section 8. They
are Principal Russell Williamson of the Inez
High School, currently President of the
K.H.S.A.A. ; and Principal Edwin V. Stewart
of the Maytown High School. In Section 7,
only one man received the necessary number
of nominations for Board of Control member-
ship, required under the provisions of Article
IV, Section 2a, of the Association constitu-
tion. He is Assistant Superintendent Cecil A.
Thornton of the Harlan County Schools.
Principals in Section 8 have been mailed
ballots. These ballots should be returned to
the State Office on or before March 1.

School Milk Program

The State Office has received recently
from Mr. C. E. Bevins, Supervisor, Special
School Milk Program, Department of Edu-
cation, Frankfort, a letter outlining the pro-
gram in Kentucky for 1955-56. Excerpts
from Mr. Bevins' letter follow :

"As you probably know, the Special School
Milk Program makes it possible for boys and
girls in school today to enjoy milk at a cost
below the usual retail price. Congress ap-
propriates the money, the State Department
of Education in Kentucky approves schools
for participation and certifies claims for
reimbursement from the schools. We pay a
maximum reimbursement of 4c of the cost
of each half pint of milk the students drink.

"Tournament time for basketball will soon
be upon us. I was just thinking as to how
nice it would be if each host school conduct-
ing the tournament would provide cold re-
freshing milk for each team after each game.
The claim for reimbursement can be sub-
mitted through the lunch program and the
cost of the milk over the reimbursement
could be written as tournament expense. I
know you'll agree that we'd be doing the
boys a big favor, and who deserves to share
in tournament receipts more than the boys
who are participating.

"Spring football practice is still another
time when an abundant supply of milk should
be made available to the boys. I'll bet that
after a hard scrimmage, some TACKLES
could drink lots of milk. There are no re-
strictions on the size of serving — half pints,
pints, quarts may be used. All these coaches
have to do is to provide the milk and report
the amount to the lunch room."

School administrators and coaches inter-
ested in the milk program, who are not
thoroughly familiar with the plan, should
write to Mr. Bevins for more particulars.

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR FEBRUARY, 1956

The Flying Dutchman

Let's check up on the new rule changes
which we talked about in our October clinics
to see what kind of a record the National
Basketball Rules Committee made for itself
for the season of 1955-56. From just about
every corner of the Commonwealth comes
praise for the over-all job these distinguished
gentlemen did in making basketball a better
game this season.

With the exception of some "bugs" in the
rule making the ball become alive on a jump
when tapped rather than when leaving the
official's hands, we definitely have a better
game this season and seem well on the way
toward the solution of the greatest "head-
ache" ever to confront the rules makers,
namely, keeping basketball from taking on
an entirely new look in the last few minutes ;
and we all have to admit that in close games
in past years, the last few minutes presented
an entirely different type of play than is
seen up to that final stage of the contest.

The Dutchman served two years as a
member of the National Basketball Commit-
tee and knows how the membership of this
group becomes the target for criticism when
a "bug" appears in a rule although there was
no way of knowing that it would be there
until the new rule was tested in season play.
So it follows that there should also be com-
mendation when a good job is done. If it is
our job to criticize, then it is also our duty
to praise. The Dutchman salutes the Rules
Committee.

That five-second rule, which we were all
afraid of as we studied the rules in our Oc-
tober clinics and which we prophesied would
do little good, has pleasantly surprised us
all because it has caused the boys to keep
right on playing ball through the entire con-
test. The rules makers certainly get an
orchid for this one.

Many communications from high school
coaches ask the Dutchman to do what he can
to get the foul lanes in high school play
widened to twelve feet like the colleges. So
the boys like the widened lanes, which means
another score for the Rules Committee.
Thus, it appears that after this year's meet-
ing of the rules makers, we may have arrived
at the time we have all been waiting for
when the rules have caught up with the game
and they can be left alone for awhile.

The Dutchman has had one of his busiest
years in passing out interpretations as un-
usual plays have been developing all over the
state. Situations which have never come up
before and are not covered in the case book
have brought a lot of interesting rulings to
light.

"Ole Ben" Edelen, the state tournament
official, was tearing his hair after returning
from working a game up in Wisconsin. It
seemis that a home spectator had a whistle
and each time a visiting player would drive
for the basket, he would "sound off," thus
stopping play and ruining an opportunity for
a score. "Ole Ben" said: "I let him score the
first time, although every other player
stopped to see what was wrong. The next
time, I stopped play before the drive ended
in a score and did what I could to get the
situation remedied." Now Ben wanted the
official ruling. He was right either way he
called it. The best procedure after the first
whistle blowing by the spectator was to see
that the game manager located the fan with
the whistle before continuing the game. Al-
ways be slow to forfeit a game under such
conditions because you can never be sure
that the offender is connected with the team
being penalized.

Shelby Winfrey, of Berea, came up with a
good one. With only seconds left in the game,
Team A scored on a foul shot. The scorer's
horn sounded for a substitution and was not
heard until a Team B player had taken a
pass on the throw-in after the foul shot and
knocked the bottom out of the basket for a
field goal. The timer had never started the
clock, so the question was whether to count
the field goal or not. The ruling is that the
goal has to count. The fact that the clock had
not started means nothing. Also, the sounding
of the scorer's horn for a substitution only
stops play when the official beckons the sub-
stitute into the game. In the case presented,
the officials did not hear the scorer's horn
and did not beckon to the substitute which
means play continues.

From the mountains to the Pennyrile, Ken-

tucky's sportsmanship is being praised by
the "Men With The Whistles." Comment
from such sources constitutes "Praise from
Caesar." Deward Saylor and Joe Golden told
the Dutchman that sportsmanship at the
Wallins Invitational Tournament was not
only of the highest calibre, but that it was
also characteristic of the mountains, while
"Jolly Amos" Teague and "Wild Bill" Omer
praised Western Kentucky school officials
and fans in the same manner.

Dewey and Joe called for an Abou Ben
Adhem Award for Wallins High School at
the same time "Jolly" Amos and "Wild Bill"
were asking that the same honor be bestowed
on Henderson City and Owensboro Senior
High schools for outstanding courtesies ex-
tended officials working the games.

It was the actions of "Big Jim" Golden of
Wallins which won the award for his school
while the practices of that new Henderson
City High School could well write a new
chapter in good neighbor practices. Arriving
at Henderson to officiate the game with
Owensboro Senior High, Amos and Bill found
that the city police had reserved a parking
space for them. Then they were met by a
hospitality committee at the door and es-
corted to their dressing room; At half-time
there were cold drinks brought them as well
as towels and chewing gum. After a double
overtime, ball game players, coaches and
fans were courteous and friendly beyond the
fondest expectations. In the words of these
officials, "Such treatment of officials goes
a long way toward meriting for Kentucky its
recognition as the 'Sportsmanship Capitol
of the Nation'."

Dale K. Hayes and H. Vaughn Phelps, of
the University of Nebraska, were the recip-
ients of The Flying Dutchman's Corn Cob
Pipe of Honor Award for unselfish serv-
ice in December. Now, from that Great State
of Nebraska comes this word from those gen-
tlemen: "All praise to the Kentucky High
School Athletic Association for those Corn
Cob Pipe Awards. Those race horses with the
pipes around their necks will adorn our desks
as a symbol to all individuals who try to be
of service to others."

All of this leads up to the fact that E.
Kelly Thompson, brand new president of
Western Kentucky State College, receives
the Dutchman's Corn Cob Pipe salute for
the month of January. Friends of the youth-
ful prexy have presented a list a "mile long"
of Kentuckians now holding college degrees
who would never have been able to get them
had it not been for the personal interest

President Kelly took in them by finding jobs
to keep them in school and by lending en-
couragement in countless ways to keep them
striving toward their goals in spite of dis-
couragements. The award could not go to a
more deserving chap.

As your Dutch friend signs off, his
thoughts once again are of Kentucky's Game
Guys. The month of February offers the last
opportunity to nominate your selections for
the Game Guy Plaque to be presented to the
kid overcoming the greatest physical handi-
cap to engage in sports for the current high
school athletic year. Let's remember them.
They are worth helping.

Cheerleaders, Are Your Manners Showing?

By Mrs. Stella S. Gilb

If your manners are "slipping" but not
actually showing, better anchor them before
you, too, are guilty of bad manners. From
the many letters being received on the sub-
ject of "courtesy among cheerleaders," we
are inclined to believe the problem is one
deserving some discussion. Whether your
cheerleaders are or are not guilty of violat-
ing any of the courtesies mentioned below,
now is the time to take inventory.

The following are some of the complaints
that have been registered with the KAPOS
organization :

1. Many visiting cheerleaders are abusing
the privilege of being guests by dashing on
the floor in order to give the first yell.
(After the first few times of allowing the
visitors the courtesy of giving the first yell,
it should be an alternating situation.)

2. Visiting cheerleaders are choosing such
long, drawn-out yells to give during a short
time-out period that it leaves no time for
the host cheerleaders to give a yell.

3. Host cheerleaders are being negligent
in greeting the visiting cheerleaders and
providing adequate facilities for the checking
of personal belongings and proper seating
space.

4. Cheerleaders are trying to drown out
opponents by yelling at the same time.

5. Coaches and officials are complaining
over the delay of the game caused by cheer-
leaders who begin a formation yell in the
middle of the floor just as the time-out is
over.

If you are guilty of the violations listed
above, then your manners are showing!
Cheerleaders Are Being Recognized

There is more talk, more favorable pub-
licity, and more recognition being given to
the cheerleaders now than ever before. This
is good, and as it should be, as their job is

Page Eight

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR FEBRUARY, 1956

not an easy one. Their practice hours are
long and strenuous. However, they should
keep in mind that the fans come primarily
to see the team perform. They are the "big
show", the cheerleadei's are only the
"barkers".

As with everything, there is a time and
place for cheering. It is up to the cheerleader
to develop a sensitivity as to when that time
arrives. Many sponsors feel that unless
cheerleaders learn to adhere to the rules of
propriety and respect for the rights of
others, they are in danger of losing the inter-
est and cooperation of both coaches and fans.

The following is offered in the hope that,
in learning to spell "courtesy", cheerleaders
will learn also to exhibit it.

C— is for COURTESY, which for the host
school should imply

a welcome cheer, one that says Hello,
Welcome, Hi!

— is for ONE, meaning one group on
the floor at a time;

you had your turn, now it is mine.

U — is for UNITY, all cheerleaders doing
the same;

be ready, alert, don't delay the game.

R — is for RUSH, hurry to get on the
floor ;

there is but time for one yell, no more.

T— is for TIME-OUT, the referee has the
ball;

give a yell, be quick, don't stall.

E — is to ERR on the choice of your yell;
if long and complicated it will delay the
timer's bell.

S — is for SHARING every other time to
give a cheer;

adhere to this rule or else you will be
unpopular, I fear.

Y — is to say YES, a pledge I will gladly
make

ever COURTEOUS to be, even though the
championship may be at stake!

Note: Mrs. Stella S. Gilb, of the University of Kentucky
faculty, is Executive Secretary of KAPOS (Kentucky Associa-
tion of Pep Organization Sponsors). This organizatioin sug-
gests that sponsors write whenever they encounter problems
in their work, or when they feel that they have had successful
experiences, so that these problems and experiences may be
uied in helping others.

Co-Physical Education

By Martha G. Carr

As we all know, the objectives of education
are always undergoing change. Much depends
upon the mood and customs of the commun-
ity and of the nation as a whole as to what
particular objective or value will be high-
lighted at any particular time. We have come
a long way from the time that "learning to
read the Bible" was the sole objective of edu-
cation. Our educational objectives have be-
come highly diversified and have come to
include much of the training that was
thought to be the realm of the family group.

In recent years more attention has been
turned to the social objectives. We have
come to realize that human relationships are
an essential part of living and that success
depends so very much upon the ability to
get along well with other people. The
Columbia University curriculum study points
out that life holds a number of "persistent
situations" which must be met by our boys
and girls as they occur in each age level.
Boys and girls together as part of the per-
sistent-situations-frame is definitely a per-
sistent situation in human relationships.

Good human relationships do not just
happen. They can be taught in a number of
ways. We can help boys and girls to meet
this persistent situation tnrough well
planned physical education experiences.
These situations should occur all through
their school life if they are to be well ad-
justed for man and woman relationships as
they reach adulthood. There should be no
interruption in tiiis process at any age. The
degree of relationship may vary with the age
levels but there should be no absolute separa-
tion at any age. Sex roles are said to be
imposed upon children by adults. Little girls
are told to act like ladies and little boys are
expected to act like their fathers. Children
are not ready to become classified at such
early ages. Sex cleavages can occur and are
even encouraged by some methods used in
elementary schools. This makes the return
to the acceptance of the sexes at adolescence
very difficult. We are all familiar with the
problems brought on by this "new found"
interest in each other. Why should it be a
newly found interest? Interest now in co-
physical education or joint participation by
boys and girls represents a natural result
of the increased importance given to social
adjustment and recreational objectives of
physical education.

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR FEBRUARY, 1956

Some principles of methods to be followed
in co-physical education might be listed as
follows :

1. Programs must provide continuity in
heterosexual experiences from elementary
through secondary.

2. Only activities which are completely
suitable for mixed participation should be
included in the program.

3. Occasional games for recreation such
as Softball, volleyball, and basketball where
rules can be adapted to offset the superiority
of one group can be included. For example, in
volleyball, spiking and blocking are difficult
for girls, so in mixed teams a row of girls
should be facing a row of girls on the op-
posite team. Teams should always play mixed
and never boys against girls. In individual
Sports girls can quite often achieve the same
level of skill as boys and can therefore play
as opponents in these games.

4. i^egin co-physical education (if it has
not been introduced earlier) in extra class
offerings which are not required.

5. Introduce activities as electives for
credit such as folk dance, ballroom, dance,
tennis, golf, etc.

6. Introduce a unit in mixed participation
in one required course such as 9th graae
physical education.

Concluding statement: Let's teach toler-
ance and understanding of the strengths and
weakness of each sex. Let's not encourage
antagonism and sex cleavage. Hemember
that the major portion of life's activities
are done in mixed groups. Let's help to pre-
pare our boys and girls for this kind of liv-
ing.

How to Sit the Bench

By Lee Kennedy, Sophomore, Newark High School

In choosing a subject for this essay I re-
call what was said in our English handbook
about choosing a subject which you are well
versed on. Therefore, I have chosen this one,
for during the past two years I have spent
approximately eighty-five hours sitting the
bench while my luckier and more talented
chums have been giving their all for the dear
old alma mater.

Well, so much for the preliminaries. Now
let me expand a little on the actual art. To be
able to sit the bench properly you must have
the following qualifications: you must have
practically no talent, and if you do, you must
be careful to keep it dormant or you might
have the awful experience of having the

coach put you in; you must have highly de-
veloped hind quarters for in this art that is
the part of you that takes the wear and tear
(plus the numerous splinters) ; last, but not
least, you must have a highly trained voice
for it's the duty of the bench to aid the cheer-
leaders in spurring the team on to gi'eater
heights. If, after carefully examining your-
self, you find that you possess these qualifi-
cations, you have a good chance of becoming
at least an average benchwarmer.

I shall now elaborate on how to go about
assuring a permanent place on the bench.
First, you must constantly be on guard
against showing any improvement during
practice, for if you do, the coach will surely
try to develop you into something resembling
a ball player (this is what all benchwarmers
have nightmares about) ; next, it will aid
your cause immensely if you can by some
means disgust the coach or arouse his ill will
against you. At this time I will disclose some
of the trade secrets for accomplishing this
not too difficult feat. As these ai'e of highly
secretive nature I will leave it to your discre-
tion not to betray them to any outsider. One
very successful method is to let the coach
catch you breaking training rules. This will
either get you kicked off the team or you will
most assuredly sit the bench for quite a
period of time. If, for some reason this fails,
another good one is never to pay attention to
what the coach is saying. The last, and one
of the most effective, is that of playing dumb,
that is, wearing a look of complete ignorance
on your face which belies the fact that you
have an ounce of brains.

One must not get the idea that a bench-
warmer's life is not an enjoyable one, for
there comes a time during the half-time per-
iod or the pre-game warm-ups when the boys
of the bench are allowed to exhibit their
meager talents. This is done mainly to assure
the public that they have some reason for
wearing the school uniforms, and are not just
charity cases.

This, plus the excellent food which they so
joyously consume at the expense of the ath-
letic department, and the fact that just being
on the team tends to impress the opposite
sex makes life most enjoyable for the bench-
warmer. All in all I can think of just one
thing more enjoyable than sitting the bench,
and that is not sitting the bench.

NATIONAL FEDERATION MEETING

(Continued from Page One)

1-5-4: This article will be slightly revised to
provide for a Referee's time-out in certain cases
where defective (as well as "illegal") equipment
may be discovered. The related modification of the
rule governing starting of the clock will prevent
most abuses which might otherwise develop through
use of a purposely bi'oken shoe-string or similar
piece of equipment.

2-15-1 and 2-16: Slight editorial revisions will
make it clear that the scrimmage lines are approxi-
mately eleven inches apart even though the ball
may be tilted to a perpendicular position.

" 2-15-2: Last paragraph will be editorially re-
vised to make it clear that this applies to the posi-
tion of the feet at the time of the snap but not
after the snap.

2-20-3: An editorial revision will state that
the determination of whether a pass is forward or
backward will depend on the initial direction in
eases where the direction of the pass might be
changed because of contact with a player or the
ground or because of the wind.

3-5-1: This article will be revised to provide
that a stopped clock will be started with the snap
or free-kick as for last season except that after a
time-out charged to the Referee (as for correction
of defective equipment or a measurement or for
similar reason), the clock shall be started when
the ball is ready-for-play. It is understood that
the elastic authority for starting or stopping the
clock when there is an infraction of 3-6-3 may af-
fect this as well as any other timing situation.

5-1-2-c and 5-2-5-a: No actual revision of
these two items was authorized but the Editorial
Committee was given authority to sanction an
interpretation for an infrequent and unorthodox
situation which does not properly fit into the rules
organization. This deals with a case where a
scrimmage-kick might be touched beyond the line
of scrimmage by R, then rebound behind the line
to be recovered by K after which he advances the
ball by another kick or by a run which is followed
by an illegal forward pass or by a forward pass
which becomes incomplete. It is contended that in
the case of a forward pass which becomes incom-
plete, Rule 7-5-1 specifies that the down shall be
counted while Rule 5-1-2-c specifies that the next
down is 1st. Other irregularities may arise in con-
nection with an illegal forward pass or with a sec-
ond punt. There are several possibilities, i.e., to
consider all action after R first touches a kick be-
yond the line as being the same as if it were after
team possession had changed; or to entirely dis-
regard such touching by R in any case where the
kick is then recovered behind the line; or to as-
sume that a new series is established immediately
when there is such touching by R. Until such time
as an agreement can be reached as to which is the
most desirable procedure, an arbitrary ruling for
the given situation will be made in some of the
supplementary material but no change will be made
in the rules statement.

5-3-2: The first sentence of the second para-
graph will be revised to provide adequate coverage
for the placing of the ball when team possession
changes after a touchback and when there is an
incomplete forward pass or an illegal forwai'd pass
during 4th down.

6-4-5: This article about what constitutes in-
terference with a fair catch will be slightly revised
to make it fair catch interference whenever K
touches a kick in flight beyond the line, regardless

of whether any player of R is within running dis-
tance of the place where the kick comes down. It
would be a very rare occurrence when no player
of R would be within running distance and the re-
vision takes away any necessity for judgment on
the par-t of the Official.

7-1-1: A slight editorial revision will make it
clear that the snapper as well as any other player
is prohibited from moving into or across the neu-
tral zone to touch an opponent or interfere with
him. This does not involve any change from past
procedure but is entirely for clarification.

7-2-5: The second sentence will be revised to
make the provision about being 5 yards behind the
line apply to any A player who starts from within
a yard of the scrimmage line even though he mig-ht
not be legally "on the line" because he is faced
in the wrong direction or for similar reason. Un-
der the present ruling, it has been claimed that a
player might circumvent the rule by standing with-
in a foot of the line of scrimmage but in such a
way that he is not legally on the line.

7-3-2: This article will be revised for clarifica-
tion only. It will state that any player including the
snapper or players adjacent to him, may legally
receive a forward handed ball provided such player
makes a complete turn and is at least a yard behind
the line at the time he receives the handed ball.

7-5-4: The last sentence wil be revised to in-
corporate one minor difference from the current
rule. This will cover the case where an illegal for-
ward pass is caught and the down ends with the
ball in possession of the passing team. Under
such circumstances, the offended team may decline
the distance penalty and have the ball put in play
at the spot where it became dead rather than to
have it returned to spot of the illegal pass. Illus-
tration: The snap is from the 50. Al advances to
B's 40 where he throws an illegal forward pass
which is caught by A2 who, in an attempt to re-
verse his field, is finally downed on his 45. Since
the down does not end with ball in possession of
B, if B declines the penalty, the old rule provided
that the ball would be taken to the spot of the ille-
gal pass. Under the revised rule for 1956, B will
have the right to decline the penalty and have the
ball put in play on A's 45 where it became dead in
4's posession.

9-4-3: The first sentence will be editorially
revised to make it clear that the right of R to inten-
';ionally bat a low scrimmage-kick in flight applies
Dnly to an attempt by iR to block such kick. The
"evision is designed to avoid inequity in a rare case
?uch as the following. Scrimmage-kick by Kl is
low and strikes a player in the neutral zone and
then bounds in the air in such a way that R2 bats
it forward with his fist so that it goes 20 yards
downfield. Under the rule as presently written,
this would have to be considered a legal act. Under
the revised rule such action will be illegal batting
of a kick.

9-6-1-a: After a thorough discussion of the
unsatisfactory condition concerning coaching from
the sidelines, the Committee authorized two ap-
proaches to the problem. The states of New York
and Maine where the modified rule has proven to be
popular will have approval if further use of the
experimental rule is desired. The modified rule
permits one_ player to confer with the coach at the
sideline during any charged time-out. A majority
of the Committee did not favor adoption of the
modification even though there was a heavy favor-
able vote on the questionnaire. It was voted that
as long as the present rule is in effect, it should

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR FEBRUARY, 1956

Page Eleven

be more rigidly enforced. In an attempt to call at-
tention to the need for eliminating' undesirable
coaching activity by anyone in the coaching- box, a
note will be inserted to instruct Officials to penalize
for any act such as throwing out a kicking tee,
gesturing in a passing motion, swinging a foot as
for a kick or any other gestures or comments di-
rected to the quarterback or any player.

9-6-2-c: This will be editorially revised to
make it clear that a coach can not serve as the
one attendant who may enter the field when there
is no injury. In the case of an injury, it will be
provided that the coach and any other needed at-
tendants may enter through permission of the
Referee.

10-1: The second sentence of this section will
be revised to reduce the amount of judgment in
determining when the advantage of accepting or
declining a penalty is obvious enough to eliminate
some of the explanations to the Captains. After
any foul, the Referee will signal the Captains that
a foul has occun-ed. Whether he calls the Cap-
tains into a conference for explaining the various
effects of the foul will be determined as follows.
If a foul is followed by a touchdown, it is assumed
that the acceptance or decliniation of the penalty
will be automatic and it is not necessary to call
the Captains in. The same thing applies to a foul
during a try-for-point. In any other case, even
though the advantage or disadvantage to the of-
fended team may be obvious, the Referee will call
the Captains together. For certain fouls, such as
most dead ball fouls, the explanation will con-
sist of a statement of the procedure which is ob-
viously to the advantage of the offended team.
In any case where there is doubt as. to the advan-
tage, a full explanation of the possibilities will be
made.

The primary effect of this revision is to in-
crease the number of cases where a second foul
will be considered a part of a double or multiple
foul. Under the revised rule, if the second foul
occurs before the explanation to the Captains has
been completed, it will be paired \vith a foul during
the preceding down to make a double foul. If it oc-
curs after the explanation has been completed,
each penalty will be administered independently.
The revised rule will not affect a foul which is fol-
lowed by a touchdown or a foul during a try-for-
point. These will be administered the same as for
last season.

10-5-2: The last sentence will be revised to
incorporate an inadvertent omission of last year.
There will be no change from last year as far as
actual administration is concerned. Discussion
brought out the question as to whether part of this
statement has outlived its usefulness. It no longer
would be necessary to cover the infrequent case
where a distance penalty starts from the goal line
and is measured into the end zone except for the
academic question as to what would happen in cer-
tain cases where a team might desire to accept
such penalty, even though there would be no advan-
tage in such acceptance. Illustration: Runner Al
advances for a touchdown. During the run, Bl
holds. _ It is doubtful whether there is any situation
in which A would desire to accept the penalty, since
they can retain the touchdown through declination.
However, the rules give any team the right to
decline any single penalty. The last sentence of
10-5-2 makes this a touchdown even though the
distance measurement is accepted.

GENERAL: Interpretations for several listed
situations were authorized. Most of these confirm

interpretations which were used during the past
season.

1. If players persist in grabbing at the face
protector of an opponent so that the hand and neck
can be twisted, it is to be considered a suspicious
act. n certain situations connected with line play
or with the tackling of a runner, there may be no
other place for the tackier or player trying to get
through to the ball to make his tackle or quick pull
effective. The Official will be liberal under such
circumstances. But if players persist in grabbing
at the face protector, when it is possible for them
to avoid deliberate grabbing of such protector, the
Official is instructed to penalize for unsportsman-
like conduct. This is on the assumption that since
the wearing of such protective equipment is urged,
there should be no activity designed to discourage
the use of this safety device.

2. The Research and Equipment Committees
were instructed to make an intensive study of pos-
sibilities in connection with reducing the amount
of hard fiber and plastics in helmets, shoulder pads
and other pads and that they make every effort
to encourage further development of equipment
which will fully utilize the advantages of shock-
absorbing materials which are not so prone to in-
jure the opponent.

Similar research is urged in connection with
the setting of standards for material used in shoe
cleats. This applies especially to various types of
metal cleat.

3. If a player reports a broken chin strap or
an untied shoe lace or some similar defective equip-
ment in a situation in which it is to the obvious
advantage of his team to get the clock stopped,
the Official is instructed to start the clock as soon
as there has been reasonable opportunity to make
correction. Under Rule .3-5-1, as revised for 1956,
the clock will, under the outlined circumstances,
start when the ball is ready-for-play but the Offi-
cial has authority to start it even earlier in cases
where there is doubt as to whether defective equip-
ment has been used to gain an advantage.

4. To avoid situations in which the ball is
hidden so effectively that some of the officials are
deceived, all officials will be urged to follow the
procedure which will be outlined in the new edition
of the Football Official's Manual. This will caution
officials against killing the ball on suspicion and it
will also urge that no official other than the Referee
use his whistle except in those cases where the Ref-
eree is not in a position to be certain that the ball
has become dead.

5. The Official's Manual Committee was auth-
orized to encourage further experimentation with
devices which simplify the procedure when a meas-
urement for a 1st down is to be made.

6. Since there is some question about the plac-
ing of the white stripe on the ball in such a way
that it will have the least contact with the fingers,
auhorization was given to approve outlined experi-
mentation by listed groups.

7. A discussion of the question of whether 25
seconds is the correct maximum time for snapping
the ball led to authorization of experimentation by
any interested group with a time limit of 20
seconds.

BASKETBALL— CURRENT AND FUTURE

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN SEVERAL
SEASONS, there is no pronounced opposi-
tion to the penalty rules. Either the bonus
penalty wears well or a fatalistic attitude
has developed. Probably it has taken a
couple of years for players and coaches to
fully realize that under such penalty, the
odds are in favor of the team that avoids
excessive fouling. The scores may be higher
than might be desirable and the number of
fouls is still too great, but the game con-
tinues to be thrilling, skills in throwing field
goals continue to increase and the team
which is behind in the score retains a reason-
able chance to win up to the last few seconds
unless the teams are very unevenly matched.
These factors partially account for the con-
tinued great interest in the game.

AS THE SEASON DRAWS TO A CLOSE,
it is in order to consider possible ways in
which the code and the game can be further
perfected without any radical change in fun-
damentals. Items which could be studied with
profit include the following. Should the 12-
foot wide free throw lane which is now pre-
scribed for college and A.A.U. courts be ex-
tended to include high school and Y.M.C.A.
courts? If the wider free throw lane should
be adopted for universal use, what con-
stitutes the most pleasing and efficient
type of marking? During a jump ball, should
the ball become alive when it leaves the Of-
ficial's hand for the toss (rather than when
it is legallv tapped) ? Should further restric-
tions be placed on action above basket ring
level at a player's own basket?

COURT MARKINGS have always varied
in accordance with decorative taste. A cer-
tain amount of variation is probably desir-
able. On some courts, the center circle is
embellished with the trademark of the
school. In some cases, that part of the free
throw lane which is restricted by the 3-sec-
ond rule is stained in a solid color. If the wide
free throw lane should be adopted for high
school courts, there should be some uniform-
ity in the method of marking this part of
the court. At the present time, the free throw

line is the only line on the court which is one
inch in width. Since this line is one of the
boundaries for the area limited by the 3-
second rule, a good case could be made for
making this 2 inches in width, the same as
for the other lane lines. Regardless of what
is done with the free throw line, the appear-
ance of the floor will differ with different
methods of marking the broken semi-circle
which lies between the parallel lane lines.
Because of the personal taste of the artist
who drew the present illustration for the
rules book, this broken semi-circle is shown
as having many segments. Since only one
Durpose is served bv this broken semi-circle,
i.e., to act as a restraining line during a
jumn ball, there is no good reason why it
should not be inconspiciuously marked. Most
gymnasium instructors prefer a evmnasium
with a minimum number of markings. It is
pi'obable that a marking with not more than
six segments would give a more nleasing ef-
fect as seen from the bleachers. Color of the
circles should also be considered. If the lane
lines are black, it miffht be best to show the
entire circle in red or only the broken semi-
circle in red. These matters should be given
careful consideration before the rules for
next season are authorized.

ACTION IN THE VTCINITY OF THE
THROWER'S BASKET: In the college game,
nearlv everv team has at least one nlaver
who can handle the ball above the basket
ring level. Because of this, there are a
number of so-called "cheap tap-ins." Some
of these follow a free throw. As a partial
curb on free throw tap-ins. one or more con-
ferences are experimenting with a modified
rule which gives both the H and V alleys
to defensive plavers. This probably reduces
the number of "tap-ins" but it also reduces
the severity of the penalty for a common
personal foul. This could ut)set the balance
which now makes it unprofitable to commit
a foul and thus bring back a greater number
of intentional or careless fouls.

The Flying Dutchman

Three state tournament officials made
news this month. "Handsome Ralph" Muss-
man, Newport's progressive recreation direc-
tor, has been elected president of the Ken-
tucky Recreation Society to succeed Frank-
fort's Charlie Figg, while Ben Edelen was
selected to serve as an official for a pic-
torial Courier-Journal magazine story, co-
starring with Northern Kentucky's Bob Mil-
ler and depicting the woes and thrills of
officiating basketball games.

Since we have started off talking about
officials, let's study some rules which may
cause controversies in the tournaments un-
less we have the "dope" in advance.

Al Gustafson asks, "What constitutes per-
sistency by a defensive player in kicking the
ball, inasmuch as a technical foul is involved
when repeated kicking takes place?" The
ruling: The first time a defensive player in-
tentionally kicks the ball, it is a violation
and the ball is awarded out of bounds to his
opponents ; the second time he kicks the ball,
it is a violation and the player is warned that
the next occasion will result in a technical
foul ; the third time he kicks the ball, a tech-
nical foul is called.

Jack Thompson asks for a ruling on this
play : In a sudden death overtime period, A-1
jumps and shoots, coming down on his de-
fensive player B-1 and fouling him. The ball
then goes in the basket scoring the two
points necessary to win the game after the
first overtime period. Inasmuch as B-1 has
a foul shot and a possible bonus shot due him.
Jack wants to know if the game is over. The
ruling: B-1 gets his foul shot and if he
makes it, gets another one, and if he scores
on both, the game continues until one of the
teams has scored at least one more point.
If, however, B-1 missed his bonus free throw,
the game would be over.

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR MARCH, 1956

Now let's talk about the five-second rule
as it pertains to the dribbler: The rule is in
effect when the dribbler is obviously stalling
in the area between the outer edge of his
foul circle and the mid-court dividing line,
provided that a defensive man has him under
close guard for five seconds. Close guard is
defined as reaching distance. If the dribbler,
after being guarded for less than five sec-
onds, is able to break far enough away from
his guard to be outside of reaching distance,
the count stops and a new count starts when
he is again under close guard. In the event
that he is guarded by A-1, breaks away from
A-1 and is immediately picked up by A-2, the
count would not stop but would be continu-
ous. Remember that the rule pertaining to
stalling by the dribbler is never in effect in
that area between the outer edge of his foul
circle and the end line in his team's front
court.

While we are talking about rules, the Fed-
eral Internal Revenue officials have asked
The Flying Dutchman to advise all officials
that if they have an income from officiating
in excess of $100 on or before April 15, 1956,
they are required to file an estimated tax
return for the year of 1956. While this in-
formation will not be especially delightful to
the officials, it will save much difficulty with
the tax officials later on.

Cob Pipe Awards have gone out during the
month of February to Bellevue's Ben Flora,
Owensboro's Charlie Hayes and H. E. Lash-
brook. Ben merited The Flying Dutchman's
Honor Award for his countless years of serv-
ice in developing fine character in the young
men of Northern Kentucky. Charlie Hayes
and "Speedy" Lashbrook were sent cobs
after Sam Barker, Director of the Mile of
Dimes in the Owensboro-Daviess County
Campaign, praised them highly for rendering
their expert officiating services free of
charge in a polio basketball game aimed at
raising funds to eliminate this dread disease
forever.

Let's talk some more about awards, be-
cause Earl Roberts, of Science Hill, has
called for an Abou Ben Adhem Award to be
sent to Harrodsburg High School for out-
standing courtesy extended to basketball of-
ficials working games in that town. Earl
was especially high in his praise of Coach
Aggie Sale, and to that The Dutchman says
"Amen." With such men as Aggie and Bill
Ed Leedy handling young athletes in Har-
rodsburg, those citizens will always be able
to be proud of the sportsmanship for which
their town is noted.

The Game Guy Program in Kentucky has
been paying big dividends during this year.
The Dutchman's salute goes to his friend, E.
C. Jones, Principal of Montgomery County
High School, for the interest he has taken
in this month's Lionheart Award winner,
Edward Earl Ginter. According to Jonesy,
Edward Earl qualifies as an outstanding can-
didate for the Game Guy Plaque of 1956.
Due to an accident at the age of 5, Edward
Earl has lost the use of his right arm. The
fingers of his right hand will open when the
wrist is turned so that he is able to type at
the rate of 30 words a minute, but when the
wrist is straightened, his fingers will not
open. This does not stop this fighting young-
ster from being an outstannding basketball
player. Against Fleming County High he
ripped the net for 13 points, and ranks third
among Mt. Sterling's Eagles in defensive
work in games played this year, besides aver-
aginng 8 points per game. And all this with
the use of only one arm. For such determina-
tion and will power Edward Ginter has
evened up the odds which life stacked against
him and is the recipient of the Lionheart
Lapel Button Award for February.

You officials, whose legs are not moving
as fast this year as last, may take it from
The Dutchman that you are getting old. This
becomes evident as Walter Combs, "The Old
Hazard Flash," writes that his son Jimmy is
playing ball in Ashland on a team which
boasts also the son of Stan Radjunas as a
member. Old Father Time is pickin' Walter's
and Stan's pockets.

Every now and then in the countless let-
ters which come to The Flying Dutchman
each month, we find a note of humor which
we like to pass on to you. The one which gave
your Dutch Reporter a chuckle this month
came from Clyde Cantrell of Collista, Ken-
tucky. Clyde said he'd like to be straightened
out on who makes the rules for the game of
basketball. It sems that somebody had told
him that the Governor of Kentucky made
them. We told Clyde that this was one thing
nobody could blame on "Happy." It's a safe
bet that if the Governor of Kentucky had to
write the basketball rules, there would be
few seeking the candidacy for that office.
You couldn't stay in politics and take the
beating the rules committee takes each year.

Let's give Franklin's "Johnie" Crowdus a
salute for an outstanding achievement. Short-
ly "Johnie", who serves a member of the
Board of Control, will receive his Ph.D in
the field of Recreation. As far as The Dutch-

Early Season Baseball Questions

Editor's Note: These rulings do not set aside or
modify any rule. They are interpretations on some
of the eaily season situations which have been pre-
sented.

1. Play: How does the National Federation
Baseball Code differ from the Professional Code?

Ruling-: The primary difference is in organiza-
tion, arrangement and wording. The Federation
Code follows a pattern which is similar to the codes
for football and basketball. This has advantages in
making them more teachable and easier to learn,
especially for anyone who is somewhat familiar
with codes for one or more of the other major sports.

2. Play: In playing procedures, what are the
differences between the National Federation Code
and the Professional Code ?

Ruling: There are only a few significant dif-
ferences. They are as follows: (1) All money and
suspension fines are omitted from the Federation
Code. (2) The high school game is seven innings
unless the teams or the league agree to play nine.

(3) Unless the two teams or the league authorities
agree otherwise, the coacher's box at 1st and 3rd
may be occupied only by someone eligible to play.

(4) Catcher is not compelled to remain in his box
until the pitch leaves pitcher's hand. (5) Batting
out of order is not an appeal play in the Federa-
tion Code. Use of an Official Scorer is encouraged
and he or anyone else may call attention to any
irregularity in the batting order. To eliminate some
of the complications, the administration of this
infrequent foul is slightly different from that pre-
scribed by the Professional Code. (6) If ball becomes
dead and runner is awarded a base in advance of
one he inadvertently misses, the missed base is ig-
nored. An illustration is: A home run is hit over
the fence so ball becomes dead. If runner circles the
bases but happens to miss one, no appeal can be
made.

Any other minor differences have little signi-
ficance except to simplify procedures for learning
the rules.

3. Play: What is the responsibility of the Um-
pire if a batter steps in the batter's box without
wearing a head protector?

Ruling: Unless the conference or State Associa-
tion has authorized the Umpire to enforce a penalty,
he will allow the game to proceed if no head pro-
tector is available. If a head protector is available,
he will order the batter to use it. Failure to comply
may result in disqualification of the player in ac-
cordance with Rule 10-2-2-e.

4. Play: After three or four innings of a high
school game have been played, the home manager
informs the visitors that the game will be nine
innings in length.

Ruling: Unless the visitors agree to nine inn-
ings. Umpire should declare the game ended after
seven innings unless the game ends in a tie. If it
ends in a tie, the usual procedure for extra inning
games shall be followed.

5. Play: Is administration of penalty for a bat-
ter interfering with the catcher the same as for a
runner interfering with a batted ball or with a
fielder?

Ruling: There is a slight difference between
interference at home base and interference else-
where. The difference is in the time the ball becomes
dead. If a batter interferes with a catcher's attempt
to put out a runner at home, the ball becomes
dead immediately. The runner is declared out unless
there are already two out, in which case, the batter
becomes the third out. In contrast, if the batter
interferes with a catcher's throw to a base, there is
a delayed dead ball, i.e., play continues until the
outcome of the throw is determined. If the throw
is in time to put out the runner, the interference by
the batter is automatically declined. But if the
throw is not in time to put out the runner, then the
penalty is automatically accepted and the ball is
retroactively dead as of the time of the interference.
In such case, the batter is out and the runner re-
turns to the base he occupied at the time ball be-
came dead.

6. Play: May penalty for the following infrac-
tions be ignored if all runners, including the batter-

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR MARCH, 1956

Page Nine

runner, advance a minimum of one base? (a) Balli;

(b) catcher interferes with batter, (c) pitcher
throws an illegal quick pitch; (d) runner illegally
kicks a batted ball.

Ruling: Penalty is ignored in (a), (b) and (c).
It is not ignored in (d).

7. Play: It is sometimes stated that two play-
ers cannot be declared out for one infraction. Is
this correct?

Ruling: When an infraction prevents a double
play which involves the batter-runner, two runners
may be called out because of the infraction which
prevented the double play. In certain cases, it might
be obvious that an infraction has prevented a double
play which does not involve the batter-runner. Un-
der such circumstances, only one player is called out
because of the infraction. This is on the assumption
that practically all such cases will involve some
doubt as to whether the second I'unner would have
been put out, while it is easier to determine whether
the batter-runner would have been put out except
for the infraction.

8. Play: B3 bunts, (a) If this is on third strike,
is it illegal? (b) If the batted ball goes high in
the air and comes down over the infield, is it an
infield fly if 1st and 2nd are occupied? (c) May the
bunt be a foul or a foul tip ?

Ruling: (a) No. In case it should be a foul
ball, it would not be a bunt but only an attempt to
bunt. The attempt causes batter to be out. (b) and

9. Play: Rl is trapped between 1st and 2nd
but he escapes being put out and reaches 2nd safely.
Is this recorded as an error or a stolen base?

Ruling: Rl is credited with a stolen base.

10. Play: Rl is on 3rd. Pitcher Fl stretches for
set delivery. Before he has brought the ball down
to the stop position, Rl breaks for home. Fl throws
to catcher. Is this an illegal pitch or a throw to a
base? If batter chooses to strike at the ball, he
he committed an infraction.

Ruling: It depends on whether F moved his
pivot foot by stepping backward off his plate. If
he did, it is a throw to a base and Bl may not inter-
fere by striking at such throw. If Fl did not step
off his plate before the throw, Bl has no way of
knowing whether it is an illegal pitch or a throw
to a base. Umpire would be justified in regarding
it as an illegal pitch and, since there is a runner,
administration is the same as for a balk.

11 Play: Following an overthrow at 2nd, ninner
Al is advancing from 3rd when batter B4 illegally
interferes with the throw to the catcher. Is B4 or
Rl declared out?

Ruling: If two are already out, B4 is the third
out. If two are not already out, Rl is declared out.

Comment: At one time, there was some question
as to whether this procedure is followed since this
is neither a steal nor a squeeze play. Under current
rules, the same procedure is followed, regardless of
the type of play.

12. Play. Bl steps foi-ward in front of his box
to meet a pitch or he steps out of his box toward
home plate to reach for a wide pitch. What is the
penalty ?

Ruling: If he does not hit the pitch, there is no
penalty unless it should be interference with the
catcher's throw. If he does hit the pitch fair or foul,
Bl is out.

13. Play: If a pitcher is touching his plate when
he overthrows a base, does this always result in
the awarding of one base instead of two ?

Ruling: It does provided the pitcher is touch-
ing his plate in a normal pitching situation. If the

pitcher has fielded a batted ball or has fielded a
throw and happens to be in contact vdth his plate
when he overthrows a base, he is then regarded as
an infielder. In these cases, the pitcher is touching
his plate but he is not in his pitching position.

14. Play: With Rl on 2nd, it is the time of B5
to bat but B6 erroneously bats and hits a 2-bagger.
The irregularity is discovered: (a) before a sub-
sequent pitch; or (b) after a subsequent pitch.

Ruling: In (a), the proper batter, R5, is declared
out. Rl is ordered back to 2nd and it is now the turn
of B6 to bat again. In (b), no adjustment can be
made. If B7 has properly followed B6, B5 has lost
his turn at bat.

15. Play: Is batting out of turn an appeal
play?

Ruling: No. The Scorer is expected to help
prevent such an irregularity. Also, the Umpire, if
he should happen to discover it, is expected to call
attention to it and, if possible, prevent the wrong
batter from receiving a pitch.

16. Play: With Rl on 2nd, pitcher Fl delivers
an illegal spit ball. Is this a balk or an illegal pitch?

Ruling: Technically, it is neither since it is not
directly covered under 6-1 nor under 6-2-4. If Umpire
discovers the infraction before the pitch is delivered,
he should declare the ball dead immediately and no
runner may advance. If he does not discover the
infraction until after delivery, he will administer it
the same as if it were a balk. In either case, Fl
is disqualified.

17. Play: With no runner on base, PI delivers
an illegal spit ball to Bl who: (a) does not hit the
pitch and it passes throug-h the strike zone; or (b)
liits a fly bal which is caught.

Ruling: Such a pitch is not included as an
illegal patch as outlined in 6-1. For practical pur-
poses, it is best to treat such a pitch as an illegal
pitch except that Fl is disqualified. If this procedui'e
is followed, a ball would be awarded in either (a)
or (b).

18. Play: With the ball alive, Rl and R2 are
both on 2nd base. Which runner may be tagged out
while standing on the base?

Ruling: If a force play is involved, only the
advance runner may be tagged out. Otherwise, only
the succeeding runner may be tagged out.

19. Play: Since a high school game is seven
innings in length, how many innings are necessary
for a regulation game when it is called because of
weather ?

Ruling: The same as for a nine inning game,
i.e., at least four and one-half innings.

20. Play: From 2nd base, Rl attempts to steal
3rd as Fl starts his delivery. The pitch is over the
catcher's head for a wild pitch. Which base is
awarded Rl?

Ruling: If the wild pitch does not go into the
bleachers to become dead, no bases are awarded.
If the pitch does become dead, only one base is
awarded. Hence, if Rl should advance home, he
would be sent back to 3rd.

21. Play: Is it always illegal for a ininner to
leave the 3-foot baseline in his advance ?

Ruling: No. It is quite common for a runner to
make a wide swing in rounding a base. This is illegal
only when it is an attempt to avoid being tagged or
to interfere with a fielder or for pui-poses of de-
ception.

22. Play: With one out and Rl on 3rd, B3 has 2
strikes. On the next pitch, he strikes at and misses
the ball which then touches him. Does ball become
dead immediately? Who is declared out?

Page Ten

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR MARCH, 1956

Ruling: The ball becomes dead immediately.
B3 is out.

23. Play: After pitcher Fl has taken his
stretch and stop, the ball strikes the pitcher's body
and falls to the ground.

Ruling: If there is no runner, this is not an in-
fraction. If there is a runner, it is a balk.

24. Play: Is it a catch when a fielder traps the
hall against his body or under his arm ?

Ruling: No. However, this may become a catch
as soon as the fielder gets the ball securely in his
hand after having trapped it.

Early Season Track Questions

Editor's Note: These rulings do not set aside or
modify any rule. They are interpretations on some
of the early season situations which have been pre-
sented.

1. Situation: Are any corrections needed for
the 1956 Federation edition of the Track and Field
Rules Book?

Ruling: The first paragraph on page 21 is in-
advertently held over from last year. It conflicts
with the new procedure which permits competitors
in the high jump and pole vault to pass one to
three of their opportunities at a given height. Cor-
rect procedure is at the bottom of page 18. Also, the
cross country data on page 90 are for the year 1954
instead of for 1953.

2. Situation: What is the penalty for knocking
over a hurdle? Will a record be accepted if one
or more of the hurdles is knocked over?

Ruling: Assuming that the hurdler makes an
actual attempt to go over the hurdle and does not
drag a leg outside the hurdle, there is no penalty.
Experience has shown that no advantage can be
gained from knocking down a hurdle. Records may
be accepted even though not all of the hurdles are
standing at the end of the race, provided the hurdles
meet the overturning- specifications. If they do not,
no record will be accepted even though the perform-
ance counts in points.

3. Situation: What was the purpose in lower-
ing the overturning specifications for the high
hurdle ?

Ruling: If the 8-pound overturning force which
is specified for the low hurdles were to be applied
to the high hurdles, it would require an expensive
set of shifting weights to make the same hurdle
suitable for use in both races. Tests indicate that
a hurdler cannot gain an advantage by knocking
over a high hurdle with an overturning force of 6
pounds. Hence, there is no good reason why 8
pounds should be required.

4. Situation: With the pole vault bar at 12 feet,
Al passes all of his turns because of competing in
other events or for other reason. After all of the
competitors have failed, Al requests permission to
ti-y at this height.

Ruling: Unless Al happens to be the last in
the list of all competitors, his request should not be
granted. The bar should be raised, after which Al
is entitled to his remaining turns.

5. Situation: Why is it required that the bar
be raised in the above situation ?

Ruling: To prevent a competitor from passing
all of his turns at a given height in order to wait
until after all of his competitors have finished at
that height. In the case cited, Al had three oppor-
tunities and he did not choose to use any one of
them. He can compete only in his regular turn and
his third turn was passed. When the bar is raised,

he is competing in his regular turn since all other
competitors were eliminated at the lower height.

6. Situation: In the first line on page 19 of
the Track Rules Book, there is a reference to "his
third opportunity." Is this correct or should the
reference be to "his second opportunity"?

Ruling: The statement is correct as printed. In
the case cited, the competitor had his first oppor-
tunity at 6 feet. He passed his second and this makes
a succeeding opportunity the third.

7. Situation: What is the purpose of the slight
change in wording which permits a shot putter or
discus thrower to touch the inside of the ring pro-
vided the does not step on top of it?

Ruling': In past years the I'ules concerning this
were indefinite and they were not the same for
the two events. If a chalk mark is used for the ring,
it is expected that the competitor will stay inside
the chalk mark. However, the inside edge of such
mark often becomes i-agged. It is not intended that
a competitor be unduly handicapped because of such
ragged edge. In the case of a raised metal ring, it
is quite common for a competitor to rest the side
of his foot ag'ainst the inner edge of the ring in
order to be sure of getting maximum distance for
his approach. The current wording permits him to
do this.

8. Situation: What developments in equipment
are being considered?

Ruling: Many improvements in equipment
have been made during the past few years. One of
these is in the perfection of a satisfactoi-y light-
weight metal vaulting pole. The best of these has
a strength equal to that of a bamboo pole and it is
claimed that such poles have a springing quality
which is of some assistance to the vaulter.

Experiments vdth the standard high school dis-
cus is being promoted. The small discus which was
adopted several years ago for high school meets
has increased the popularity of this event. The use
of the lighter discus permits better control and
feels more comfortable in the hand of a competitor
of high school age. Some track coaches have ex-
pressed the opinion that the smaller discus would
be even more satisfactory if it were slightly thinner
at the edge where the fingertips grip the instru-
ment. Experimental implements of the same weight
as at present but with a slightly thinner edge for
gripping pui-poses are being tried during the spring-
meets.

BASKETBALL—

(Continued from Page One)
near a player's own basket is related to the
"dunk shot" whereby a tall player rises so
that his hand is above the basket and he
can't miss because he stuffs the ball down
through the ring. This could be prevented if

it seemed desirable to do so by expanding
the present restrictions which now apply to
the defensive player so that it will also in-
clude a player at his own basket. Under such
rule no player of either team would be per-
mitted to touch the ball while it is on the
ring or while the hand in contact with the
ball is in the cylinder above the ring. If a
moi'e drastic rule were desired, this could be
expanded to prohibit touching the ball while
the ball is touching the ring or cylinder.
This would make all "dunk shots" illegal.

THE ANNUAL BASKETBALL QUES-
TIONNAIRE is now being distributed. It
gives opportunity for everyone to express
his opinion concerning these and other re-
lated problems which will be placed before
the National Basketball Committee when it
meets in Chicago on March 24 and 25.

THE FLYING DUTCHMAN

(Continued from Page Six)
man can find out, "Johnie" will be the only
native bom Doctor of Recreation in Ken-
tucky. Back in 1930 Gene Flippin pi'ophesied
that this fighting little guy, who cavorted
as center on the Hilltoppers' football team,
would leave his footprints in the sands of
time.

There is no doubt that one friend is worth
more than can ever be measured by financial
return. Last month, The Dutchman mailed
two thousand letters to the readers of The
Flying Dutchman column explaining the
Youth Ambassadors of Friendship Flight
planned to Old Mexico in 1956 and asked
their support. It was heartwarming that
301 readers contributed $357 to purchase
"Buck Sponsorships" to help make this world
friendship project possible.

Erlanger's Paul Champion presented the
project to his Citizenship Class and each
student kicked in a dime and raised $3.45 to
show what they thought about the develop-
ment of future world peace through our
young people of today. Paul came up with a
good idea because the project does have a
merit when presented to classes who are in-
terested in what they may do toward making
the world a better place in which to live.

The Dutchman just can't help feeling
warm inside toward the countless friends
who said, "We're behind you." That's the
reason we're looking forward to the State
Tournament when we'll be able to once again
renew friendships which are worth much
more than money in the bank.

A Philosophy of Athletics

The following philosophy of athletics was pre-
pared by the Monessen (Pennsylvania) School Dis-
trict. Dr. Michael Duda is superintendent of schools.
K. Fife Sterett is principal of the high school and
Frank McKoskev serves as athletic director.

WE BELIEVE THAT

1. Athletics are an integral part of our secon-
dary school program. Our hi.srh school sports are
administered by secondary school authorities and
all instruction is provided by competent, qualified,
and properly certified teachers so that desirable,
definite educational aims may be achieved. Parti-
cipation contributes to happiness, physical skill,
emotional maturity, social competence, and moral
values.

2. Cooperation and competition are both import-
ant component parts of American Life. Athletic
participation can help teach the values of coopera-
tion as well as the spirit of competition.

3. Athletics are for the benefit of all youth. A
sport for every student and every student in a spoit
in a well-balanced intramui-al and interseholastic
program vdth emphasis on safe and healthful stand-
ards of competition.

4. Athletics are to be administered under rules
which provide for eauitable competition, sportsman-
ship, fail play, health, and safety.

5. The aim of athletics is the development of
desirable character traits for useful and satisfying
democratic living.

6. The objectives of coaching- are to provide
the best type of training for our athletics since
sports play an important part in our American way
of Life, to instill a spirit of playing the game for
the sake of the game and not for rewards other
than that of winning a letter, and to protect our
youth from exploitations by outside interests.

7. The desire to learn all phases of the sport
and to develop one's ability to the fullest extent
should be stimulated.

8. Each coach should recognize his responsibil-
ities in developing sportsmanship in the youth under
his guidance. Sportsmanship requires that one gives
as well as takes. Sportsmanship is reallv the Golden
Rule applied to the fields of combat. We should al-
ways treat our visitors, both players and snectators,
as we would like to be treated when we visit them.
Sportsmanship is the quality that makes one desire
to play the game fair and hard, determined to win
without breaking the rule, without discourtesy to
an opponent.. It is the spirit that wins without using
victory as a means to humiliate a worthy opponent,
the spirit that loses without resorting to alibis, to
discount an opponent victory.

9. The best discipline is that which enables the
athlete to develop the ability to govern himself and
to respect the coach.

10. Conduct out of school leflects the training
not only of the home and the school but also the
church and community. If the athlete's good conduct
in all these agencies is a self-imposed discipline, it
will carry over into all other community situations.

11. There will be a carry-over from a good
participant to a good spectator.

12. School morale is important. Intramurals are
fine and essential, but interseholastic competition
is needed to give a school life. Hig-h morale depends
upon the hamionious relationship between all groups
and agencies that affect the athlete, student, and
teacher.

13. The learning- process takes place most ef-
fectively in attractive physical surroundings in
which the athlete has a feeling of pride and shared
ownership and in an atmosphere where there are
mutual respect and understanding between the coach
and athlete and between athlete and athlete.

14. A good public relations program should be
built. Our athletic pi'ogram is a major school acti-
vity of interest to participants and spectators alike.
In its ramifications it gives rise to considerable
comment in the local and surrounding communities.
When properly conducted, it is a source of good vrill
to those exposed to its many facets.

15. Since communitv and school benefit mu-
tually from a well conducted program, the com-
munity should be recognized and kept fully informed
of the finances and program of the school.

16. Since the success of democracy depends
upon democratic action, athletics must foster basic
democratic principles, not through verbiage but by
actually living it. Every opportunity possible should
be provided for the development of the American
way of Life.

17. Athletics suggest health and happiness. It
arouses school and community pride and also arouses
school and community spirit. A student should be
proud of the nlace in which he lives so that his school
will be proud of him.

18. Athletics develop a more sturdy, a more
self-reliant, and a more responsible student.

19. Ethics in school sports are very impoi-tant.
Our ethics gi-ow out of our thinking and are re-
flected in our attitude and conduct.

20. The hip-hest type of behavior should be
developed, esneciallv resnect for individual rights
and for law and order. Coaches, teachers, and par-
ents must work together in this grave task of pre-
parina- the pthlete to be a good citizen of God, com-
munitv, and country. Tf the athlete is thoroughly
inq-vained in the nraetice of obedience for the com-
mon a-ood, he will have a firm foundation in fun-
dpnipntal law and order. He ^-ill acquire stabilitv
of chai-acter that will last him through life. With
obedience will come piudence to distinguish between
what is valuable and what is useless. In the practice
of obedience he will recognize the existence of a
higher authoritv than his own will. He will learn to
respect the rights of others.

21. Because of increased leisure time, it becomes
incumbent upon each community to pro-vide as
much adult recreation as is of interest to the people
of the community.

22. No expense within reason should be spared
to give our youth the best of equipment and a wide
variety of activities to meet his needs and interests.
Money spent for spoi-ts is money invested in the
futuie of our community and our country.

In Memoriam

Dr. Moses Edward Ligon, professor emer-
itus of education at the University of Ken-
tuclty and first president of the Kentucky
High School Athletic Association, died on
March 27, 1956, after a short illness. He
was 78.

Born in Owen County on April 15, 1877,
Prof. Ligon attended Owen County rural
schools and Owenton Academy, and was
graduated from Georgetown College in 1905.
He received a M.A. degree from the Univer-
sity of Chicago in 1921 and an honorary
Doctor of Laws degree from Georgetown
College in 1935.

From 1905 to 1908, Prof. Ligon taught in
the schools of the Philippine Islands, and
traveled in China, Japan, East Indies, Ceylon,
Egypt, Palestine and several European coun-
tries. Upon returning to Kentucky in 1908 he
was employed as principal of the Franklin
Elementary School in Paducah. Later he
taught at Owensboro. He came to Lexington
as principal of the Lexington High School
in 1913. It was during this time that he
and other high school principals organized
the K.H.S.A.A., of which he served as presi-
dent from 1916 to 1926. In 1919 Prof. Ligon
went to Henderson as superintendent of
schools, resigning two years later to become
principal of Ashland High School He came
to the University of Kentucky in 1924 as pro-
fessor of secondary education, principal of
University High School and director of the
teacher placement bureau of the College of
Education. In 1930, he relinquished the uni-
versity school post to become chairman of
the Kentucky committee of the Southern
Association of Colleges and Secondary
Schools. He was president of the Southern
Association in 1942. He was president of the
Kentucky Education Association in 1925-26,
and he served on the athletic board of the
University of Kentucky for sixteen years.
He assumed a change of work and emeritus
status on July 1, 1947.

Prof. Ligon was the author of scores of
articles, reports and newspaper accounts. In
1942, the U. K. Bureau of School Service
published his "History of Public Education
in Kentucky."

From 1938 to 1955, Dr. Ligon served as a
trustee of Georgetown College. He held mem-
bership in the National Education Associa-

Moses E. Ligon

tion, National Association of Secondary
School Principals, National Society for the
Study of Education, National Society of
College Teachers of Education, Phi Delta
Kappa, Kappa Delta Pi, National Institution-
al Teachers Placement Association and the
Lexington Country Club. He was a past
president of the Blue Grass Executives Club.

Prof. Ligon was honored in 1955 at a pro-
gram sponsored by the Kentucky commit-
tee of the Southern Association. The cere-
mony, held at the U. K. Taylor Education
Building, was a feature of the University's
32nd Annual Education Conference. A por-
trait of Prof. Ligon was presented to the
College of Education by the Southern As-
sociation.

The veteran educator devoted much time
to church and civic activities. He frequently
served as an election officer here and had
been a member of the Lexington Board of
Education since 1948. He was member of
the Calvary Baptist Church, where he
served as a deacon and was both teacher and
dean of the Men's Baraca Class. He was a
member of the Rotary Club, and was presi-
dent of the club in 1938-39.

Survivors of Prof. Ligon are his wife, a
son, two daughters, three brothers, a sister,
and three grandchildren. The deepest sym-
pathy of all K.H.S.A.A. member school rep-
resentatives is extended to these members
of the family.

ply the shot and discus for the Regional Track Meet
and for the State Track Meet, and only these may
be used."

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR APRIL, 1956

The Flying Dutchman

Tournaments may come and tournaments
may go, but it is doubtful if any other state
in the country will ever produce a better or
more exciting state tournament than the one
Kentucky witnessed this year at Lexington.

It was Winchester's "Eck" Branham who
remarked that there was less "booing" in
this tournament than any he had attended,
and "Eck" sees them all. Certainly, the
sportsmanship of the coaches and players
was beyond reproach, all of which continues
to merit for Kentucky its reputation as the
"Sportsmanship Capitol of the Nation".

The Kentucky High School Athletic As-
sociation can be justly proud of the job
turned in by its executives in crowd engineer-
ing. The manner in which everybody was
kept moving and the way in which the Boy
Scouts handled the seating was as efficient
as any job ever done in Madison Square
Garden. The officiating was again of the
highest calibre.

This is, without a doubt, Kentucky's most
colorful show and one which affords the best
opportunity for all Kentuckians to mingle,
have friendly conversations and meetings in
hotel lobbies and at the games. The holiday
spirit which prevails is wholesome and the
cooperation of the spectators splendid. Ken-
tucky's State Tournament is just the most
enjoyable place to be during the ides of
March.

Top this if you can! Coach Andy Jack
Fultz, of Olive Hill, lost in a heart-breaking
overtime in the State Tourney to Coach Jim
Bazzell, of Allen County. Do you know what
they did after that game? Andy Jack and
Jim lunched together downtown — Brethren,
you can't beat that kind of sportsmanship
anywhere!

There has to be a wonderful spirit of fel-
lowship in Kentucky's high school athletic
program when a basketball official will name
a new baby for an assistant commissioner.
Arbiter Omer, of Madisonville, has named his
spanking new boy "Joe Billy" after debonair
J. B. Mansfield, of the K.H.S.A.A. If the
baby has an appetite like big Joe Billy,
Whistler Omer had Letter up his officiating
fee.

The next big athletic event is scheduled
for April 13 when all of Kentucky's athletic
enthusiasts gather at the Brown Hotel dur-
ing K.E.A. for the annual banquet. This is
the occasion when the "Game Guy of 1956"
will be honored by receiving the Flying
Dutchman Trophy for being the athlete who

has overcome the greatest physical handi-
cap to engage in sports.

This year, that honor goes to Edward Earl
Ginter, Montgomery County High School,
Mt. Sterling, Kentucky. Edward Earl is a
unanimous selection for this year's honor
from among fifteen nominations from all
over Kentucky. Eddie, who lives a "whoop
and a holler" from the Montgomery County
High School at Mt. Sterling, is 17 years old,
an above average student and popular with
the teachers and student body. He is a coun-
try boy who has not let his physical handicap
of losing the use of his right arm keep him
from being an outstanding basketball player
or from milking the cows, pitching hay or
doing anything else on a farm or the basket-
ball court that anybody else can do. So it is
that Edward Earl Ginter joins the parade of
Kentucky's Game Guys who annually set
outstanding examples for other young men
to pattern from. Meet this fighting young-
ster at the K.E.A. Athletic Dinner,

The interest that Kentucky's school men
and athletic leaders are taking in encourag-
ing physically handicapped boys to live
normal lives and play normally as do their
physically whole friends is gratifying. Dur-
ing March, Bill Ring, of Maysville, recom-
mended Don Ryan and J. T. Whaley, of St.
Patrick's, for the Lionheart Lapel Button
Award for their courage in carrying on in
the field of sports although temporarily set
back by physical handicaps suffered in an
unfortunate accident.

It is the sincere desire to help other people
and to render unselfish service which has
caused Kentucky's school boy athletic pro-
gram to reach the high level it now enjoys.
When so many people are interested in the
achievements of others and are anxious to
gain recognition for them, it is easy to see
why so much is accomplished.

A letter from Al Gustafson praises Vine
Grove's Chet Redmon, an outstanding leader
in Kentucky's high school athletics, for the
practice Chet has initiated in saying a prayer
with his boys prior to his games in their
dressing rooms. Such practices mean a lot
to high school sports and the future develop-
ment of fine men through athletics. Vine
Grove gets another well deserved orchid be-
cause the parents of the boys do something
fine by feeding all the players, coaches and
officials in the cafeteria after every home
game.

Elizabethtown Catholic High School cheer-
leaders also come in for special acclaim for
the good neighbor practices which they fol-

low by preparing a lunch of sandwiches,
oranges and apples after each game for
teams and officials. Certainly, Vine Grove
and Elizabethtown Catholic High Schools
richly merit the award of the Abou Ben
Adhem Certificates.

And now, from Bill Knight, "The Duke
of Paducah", comes this comment: "I am
taking this opportunity to acknowledge the
courtesy extended to me as a basketball of-
ficial by Bardwell High School down in the
First District. I have never witnessed great-
er sportsmanship by a coach, team, school
officials and spectators anywhere. I feel
that much of this fine sportsmanship can
be credited to Coach L. G. Tubbs, who is a
shining example. To this fine coach I ask
that a Cob Pipe of Honor be awarded and
an Abou Ben Adhem Award to his school

and community." Bill may be sure that Coach
Tubbs now has a Corn Cob Pipe to puff on
and that the sportsmanship award now
adorns the wall of the Bardwell High School.

Unquestionably, this year's season of
basketball in high school circles of the Com-
monwealth has been great because school
men, coaches, spectators and cheerleaders
all cooperated to make it that way. There is
a lot of satisfaction in just the association
with the kind of leaders Kentucky offers to
its young people.

With Bill Hunt and Dr. James Fuller lead-
ing the way, Mayfield is getting ready to
start a big year-round recreation program
in that progressive Western Kentucky city.
The Dutchman has a trip to make there in
April to help get that recreation program
started and another to Mount Washington

are on the move again.

Here's some news for communities of
Kentucky who have been wanting to start
programs of recreation, but lack the knowl-
edge necessary to launch such programs. A
new textbook, written by The Flying Dutch-
man, will be off the press by June and avail-
able to any schools or communities interest-
ed in public programs of recreation.

Entitled A New Horizon of Recreation, it

represents a guide which may be followed by
inexperienced directors just starting in the
recreational field. It offers additional serv-
ice to community planners of recreation who
will take the lead in bringing many new
public programs of recreation to America
during the next two decades. This is a grass
roots study. Recorded are the results of
twelve years of actual experience in the or-
ganization and administration of county-
wide recreation tailored to fit the needs of
the communities.

The procedure is democratic. The ideas are
new and challenging. New conceptions of
recreational responsibilities appear, with the

Cheerleaders representing the Shelbyville
High School were first place winners in the
second annual competition for the Cheer-
leaders' Cup, awarded by K.A.P.O.S. Runner-
up honors went to Lafayette High School,
with Honorable Mention to Bell County High

by K.H.S.A.A. President Russell Williamson
during the award ceremony following the
final game of the 1956 State Basketball
Tournament.

The cheerleaders were judged on the basis
of a seven-point rating scale, which included
appearance, ability, conduct while in uni-
form, and sportsmanship toward opponents
and officials.

4. General: (a) Time from 1st whistle to
final gun: 1 hr. and 15 min. per game, (b)
Time consumed by last 3 minutes of clock-
time: 8 mins. 45 sees, per game.

Part B — About value of possession (separate
record for each team)

Average recorded for only those games in
which the score in the last quarter is close
enough to encourage "keep-away" and reck-
less play by the team behind.

A possession unit begins when the team
gets control and it continues until the op-
ponent secures control. It extends through
a try, rebound attempts, free throws by that
team or any subsequent action up to the
time the opponent secures control such as
by interception or securing a rebound or
control after a violation or successful goal.
In a single possession unit, a team might
score a field goal, be fouled and score 2 or
more points on free throws, intercept a
throw-in and score again.

1. In first 29 minutes: (a) Average No.
possession units: 61.5 per team per game,
(b) Number possession units in which the
team scored: 2 points, 30.0; only 1 point,
3.62 ; 3 or more points, 1.1 ; points, 27.4.

2. In last 3 minutes : (a) Average No. pos-
session units: 6.8 per team per game, (b)
Number possession units in which the team
scored: 2 points, 3.1; only 1 point, 1.2; 3 or
more points, .44 ; points, 2.6.

Note: Last year, possession had a value of between
.8 and .85 of a point. The net worth of a bonus
penalty was approximately one-half a point.

New Baseball Films

Prints of two new films, WORLD SER-
IES OF 1955 and CATCHING STARS OF
BASEBALL, have been rented by the
K.H.S.A.A. and have been placed on loan
with the Department of Extension at the
University of Kentucky.

The film, WORLD SERIES OF 1955, de-
picts the highlights of the seven games be-
tween the Brooklyn Dodgers and the New
York Yankees. The Dodgers won the series
four games to three after the Yankees had
won the first two games. Most of the action,
hitting and scoring play, is shown in the
four-reel film, with some shots in slow mo-
tion.

CATCHING STARS OF BASEBALL
shows some of the great catchers of the
game demonstrating the proper techniques
of receiving, throwing, fielding and signall-
ing. The illustrators are Bill Dickey, Yogi
Ben-a, Al Campanella, and Sherman Lollar.
The picture is entertaining to all baseball
fans, but is especially designed as a coach-
ing film for catchers.

school district in which the school to which he
transfers is located. The season begins with the
day when the squad is first called out for practice,

U. K. Coaching Clinic

Bobby Dodd

Duffy Daugherty

Some of the most widely known and most successful coaches
in collegiate sports today will make up the instructional staff
offering free tips of the trade to Kentucky high school coaches
during the annual University of Kentucky Coaching Clinic
scheduled in Lexington August 8-11.

Due to be on hand as guest lecturers to give their pro-
fessional opinions at the free U. K. clinic, which is expand-
ing in attendance and national reputation each year, are
successful football bowl coaches from Michigan State and
Georgia Tech as well as Illinois' outstanding basketball mentor
and the University of Louisville's veteran baseball tutor. The
University of Kentucky will add, for good measure, its own
highly-respected coaches of football, basketball and track. Also
on the program will be two chief aides from Georgia Tech,
along with Wildcat assistants in football and basketball.

Rounding out the working vacation for a probable record
number of high school coaches of the state will be the attrac-

tion of the fifth annual Kentucky High School All-Star Games
in basketball and football. The two star-studded tilts between
selected East- West squads are carded for the University's
Memorial Coliseum and Stoll Field stadium at 7:00 and 8:30
p.m. (Daylight Time) Saturday, Aug. 11. These games are open
to the public at a small admission charge.

Lending a bowl atmosphere and special authoritativeness
to the discussions in football will be Bobby Dodd and Duffy
Daugherty, both of whom guided their grid teams to bowl
victories last New Year's Day, Dodd's Georgia Tech crew
topping Pittsburg in the Sugar Bowl and Daugherty's Spartans
from Michigan State edging by Southern California in a Rose
Bowl date. Kentucky's own Blanton Collier, whose opinions are
based on twenty-six years in the high school-professional-college
coaching field, will add a wealth of much sought after basic
knowledge to the grid lecturers.

From the three grid masters, the visiting high school coaches
wil be able to glean a condensed but informative report on
three very different brands of successful football.

Michigan State's Daugherty, who directed his
tan outfit to a brilliant season capped by a
victory and his own selection as "Coach of the

Biggie Munn,

at the 1953 Kentucky clinic. The personable Daugherty hasn't
taken anything away from the effectiveness of the system and
actually has added a few refinements of his own to the newest
offensive trend in college football. The "multiple offense"
pattern is a strange, often confusing, and effective mixture of
straight or regular T, winged T, and single wing formations,
each run with an unbalanced line. Defensing the T and single

wing also will be a subject for discussion by Daugherty.

The amazing Mr. Dodd, now in his 12th season at the
Tech football helm and able to point with pride to an un-
paralleled record of five successive major bowl victories, prac-
tices the "razzle-dazzle" variation of T-formation football.
His Yellow Jackets, who tackle Kentucky's Wildcats on Stoll
Field in a nationally televised season opener Sept. 22, are
taught to be a quick-striking, fast, T-outfit with primary
emphasis on the running game, but with enough passing to
keep the defense opened up. They run most plays from the
regular T and the big ground gainers are quick pitchouts and
variations from the famed "belly series."

To assist in projecting a mental picture of the Dodd sys-
tem, aides Frank Broyles and Ray Graves also will be on hand.
The former is backfield coach in charge of offense and will
explain the runs and passes off the belly series. Graves is in
charge of line operations at Tech and will give tips on vary-
ing defenses.

Departing from his role of interested listener who figures
he never can learn enough football. Kentucky's Collier has two
lectures scheduled, one on pass defense and a later explanation
of the Kentucky offensive system. The quiet-mannered native

REPORTS PAST DUE

1955-56 Basketball Participation List

(Eligibility)

School's Report on Basketball Officials

Official's Report on Schools — Basketball

Fines for Late Reports

More than one hundred member schools had not
filed their reports on basketball officials and their
basketball participation (eligibility) lists for the
1955-56 season when this issue of the ATHLETE
went to press. Approximately four hundred basket-
ball officials have not filed their reports on member
schools. The Board of Control has established a fine
of $5.00 for both schools and officials delinquent
with their reports. A deadline of June 1 has been
set for the filing of all reports required under As-
sociation i-ules. This deadline is extended to June
15 for those schools which have terms of more than
nine months.

State Track Committee

The forthcoming State High School Track Meet,
which will be held in Lexington on May 18-19, will
be managed by Athletic Director John Heber of the
Henry Clay High School, Lexington, Chairman of
the State Track Committee. Other members of the
committee are: Preston Holland, Murray; W. W.
White, Henderson; Turner Elrod, Bowling Green;
Joe Brummett, Danville, Eddie Weber, Louisville;
Joe Curtsinger, Louisville; John Schaar, Bellevue;
Bob Miller, Newport; Charles Black, Barbourville;
Arthur Mullins, Elkhom City; and Ernie Chattin,
Ashland. These men will assist Mr. Heber in con-
ducting the State Meet.

Tennis Tournaments

Four regional tournaments will be held in tennis.
They will be manag-ed by the following men:Coach
Ted Homback, Western Kentucky State College,
Bowling Green; Coach Emmett (3oranflo, Eastern
High School, Middletown; Coach Ed Shemelya, Uni-
versity High School, Lexington; and Coach Roger
Klein, Bellevue High School.

Principals who have indicated previously that
their schools will have tennis teams this spring-
have been mailed entry blanks by the regional man-
agers. The tentative date for the regional tourna-
ments is May 14.

The State Tennis Tournament will be held in
Louisville on May 21-22, and will be managed by
Coach Emmett Goranflo.

Golf Tournaments

There will be seven regional golf tournaments
this spring. They will be managed by the follovvang
men: Prin. Vincent Zachem, Madisonville Hig-h
School; Prin. H. B. Gray, Bowling Green High
School; Brother Ed Joseph, St. Xavier High School,
Louisville; Coach Charles Crum, Dixie Heights
High School, South Fort Mitchell; Coach Ed Shemel-
ya, University High School, Lexington; Prin. Clyde
Lassiter, Middlesboro High School; and Prin. Oran
Teater, Paintsville Hig-h School.

The date for the tournaments is May 23. How-
ever, this date may be chang-ed by some of the
managers if conditions require it. Principals who
have not received their entry blanks should write
to their respective managers for these forms.

The State Golf Tournament will be held at
Fort Knox on May 28-29, and will be managed by
Supt. Herschel Roberts.

Basketball Court Changes

The National Basketball Rules Committee has
made mandatory the use of the twelve-foot-wide
free throw lane for high schools at the beginning
of the 1957-58 season, with the provision that a
state may make the change for 1956-57 on a state-
wide basis. K.H.S.A.A. member schools will not
change to the wide lane until 1957-58, the time
specified by the Rules Committee.

The Rules Committee has made it mandatory
that for 1956-57 the H and V designations be re-
moved and the width of the free throw lines be in-
creased to two inches.

Correction

Attention is called to an error in the State
Track Meet schedule, which was printed in the
April issue of the ATHLETE. The 880 Yard Relay
heats, scheduled to be held at 3:20 P. M. on Friday,
May 18, are qualifying heats for the Semi-Finals,
and not for the Finals.

1955-56 Annual Report

Four hundred thirty-three schools joined the
Association during 1955-56. One hundred ten schools
had eleven-man football teams, and thirteen played
six-man football. These numbers are the same as
for 1954-55.

Financial reports filed by the sixteen regional
basketball tournament managers show total re-
ceipts of $101,002.80. This represents an approxi-
mate increase of $10,500.00 over 1955 receipts. Re-
ceipts in fifty-eight of the sixty-one district basket-
ball touranments amounted to $146,867.21, indicat-
ing that the total figure for all sixty-one district
will exceed, by a small amount, the 1955 figure.
Receipts from tickets sales at the State Basketball
Tournament, exclusive of refunds, will exceed
$108,000.00. Additional receipts from television and
from the tournament program will bring total tour-
nament receipts to a figure in e.xcess of $113,000.00.
Profit to the Association on the tournament should
be approximately $88,000.00. A few tournament bills
are still being received by the State Office, with
the result that it is necessary to give an estimate
of tournament profits at this time. A com/plete
record of all receipts and disbursements will appear
in a subsequent issue of the Association magazine.

One thousand one hundred twenty-five basket-
ball officials and 302 football officials registered
with the Association in 1955-56. Nine football rules
clinics were held under the direction of Dr. Lyman

K. H. S. C. C. A. Meetings

Executive Board Meeting

Held in Lexington, February 25, 1956

A meeting of the Executive Board of the
Kentucl<y High School Coaches Charity Associa-
tion was held at 10:00 A. M., February 25, 1956, at
Memorial Coliseum, Lexington, Kentucky.

The meeting was called to order by President
Edgar McNabb. Members present were Secretary-
Treasurer Joe Ohr and Manager Bob Miller. Also
present were: Don Shelton, Head Coach of West
Football; William Tucker, Head Coach of East
Football; William Shannon, Ass't. Coach of West
Football; and Blanton Collier, Head Football Coach,
University of Kentucky.

The pui-pose of the meeting was to acquaint
the All-Star coaches with the rules and regulations
governing the All-Star games and to submit to them
a list of boys eligible to participate.

It was announced that Don Shelton, Henderson
(city) High School, had been elected to coach the
West team. He is to be assisted by Bill Shannon,
Dixie Heights, and George Claiborne, Daviess
County.

It was announced that William Tucker, Corbin
High mentor, had been elected to guide the East.
He will be assisted by Clayton Powers, Pikeville
High School. The second assistant was not
announced.

The next meeting of the Executive Board was
scheduled for Friday, March 16.

The meeting adjourned at 12:10 P. M.

Executive Board Meeting
Held in Lexington, March 16, 1956

As provided in the Constitution, the Executive
Board of the Kentucky High School Coaches Charity
Association met at 10:00 on Friday morning dur-
ing the State Basketball Tournament, March 16,
1956, in the squad room of the Coliseum at the
University of Kentucky.

Members of the Executive Board present were:
Edgar McNabb, Secretary-Treasurer Joe Ohr, and
Manager Bob Miller. Guests present were: Athletic
Director Bernie Shively, Head Football Coach Blan-
ton Collier, and Assistant Coach Ermal Allen, all of
the University of Kentucky staff.

The purpose of the meeting was to make final
selections and to check all data relative to football
squad members of the East and West teams. Coacih
Don Shelton of the West was present. However,
Coach William Tucker of the East was unable to
attend because of his assignment at Fort Knox.

It was agreed that both coaches would have
their squad rosters completed by K.E.A. week, and
that they would meet with members of the Univer-
sity of Kentucky coaching staff for their recom-
mendations prior to that time.

Coach Blanton Collier offered several valuable
suggestions relative to publicity in connection with
the 1956 games. Perhaps the most important of the
suggestions was that a meeting of press, radio,
and television representatives be called prior to the
games. It was also suggested by Mr. Collier that the
publicity be channeled through Mr. Ken Kuhn's
office.

It was announced at this meeting that the follow-
ing speakers were to appear on the program of the

The Flying Dutchman

There's no doubt that the athletic banquet
held during K.E.A. has again proved to be
the most enjoyable dinner meeting of the
whole fiesta. It is another tribute to the
imagination and planning genius of those
in charge of these affairs.

Russell Williamson, a modest chap of many
abilities, did a masterful job as master of
ceremonies. He also earned a new title be-
stowed by the speaker of the evening. Dr.
Henry Hill, the president of Peabody College.
Henceforth and hereafter, Russ, who is a
Mason, Elk, Lion and bank president, be-
sides directing the educational destiny of
Inez, may properly be referred to as "The
Gentleman of the Garter."

Little Patty Kipp, seven-year-old dancer,
was so "smitten" with the President of the
Board of Control that, after the completion
of her garter dance, she presented Russ with
her red garter as an everlasting memento
of her admiration. So you can see that this
banquet wasn't stiff and stuffy. Everybody
was there for fun and there were fun and
good fellowship in abundance.

Board member Jack Dawson drew praise
for the entertainment he provided. Jack
called on the talented kids of Jefferson Coun-
ty's recreation program to supply fifteen
minutes of relaxation for the harassed ath-
letic leaders who had just come from their
big afternoon session, and they "delivered
the goods." To say that the fellows got a
"bang" out of the new kind of program Jack
came up with would be putting it mildly.
Their thunderous applause proved that.

You'd think that, with the athletic ban-
quet one of the last things on the K.E.A.
program, the crowd wouldn't be large, but
the mammoth Brown Hotel Crystal Ballroom
housed the largest group ever to turn out for
the annual event.

It's a cinch that the fellows who missed
this meeting missed plenty by not hearing
Dr. Henry Hill, the most relaxed and enter-
taining college president the Dutchman has
ever heard in an after dinner address. It
took Henry about two minutes to win his
audience completely and from there on he
really performed.

Eddie Ginter, the Game Guy from Mont-
gomery County High School of Mt. Sterling,
was there along with his Dad ; his school
principal, E. G. Jones ; D. C. Anderson, Mont-
gomery County School Superintendent; and
his coach, "Jeep" Clark. As Eddie walked
forward to receive his award from Bob Kir-
chdorfer, who won it the first time in 1949,
four hundred school men stood up to applaud
the kid who refused to let a physical handi-
cap keep him out of schoolboy sports. This
Game Guy Project of the Kentucky High
School Athletic Association is now a tradition
and widely acclaimed across the nation.

For the Dutchman, this dinner brought
many thoughts. You know, all of us are too
prone to take too many things for granted :
the fun we had this night for one thing, and
the members of our Board of Control for
another.

Kentuckians have no way of realizing,
unless they have served themselves, just how
much service they receive from the members
of their Board of Control. Sure, it's an honor
to be elected to that administrative body,
but, brethren, take it from the Dutchman, it
also means work and personal sacrifice. For
this reason, it was heart-warming to hear
one chap stop Hazard's Roy Eversole, retir-
ing board member, to say, "I want to be one
of the first among the many Kentuckians
you have served to express my thanks to you
for what you have done for schoolboy ath-
letics in the state."

Roy, indeed, did his job well and helped
write another chapter of the success story
of Kentucky's high school athletic program.
As we hail his successor, popular Cecil Thorn-
ton, of Harlan, Kentucky salutes the Hazard
educator as one of "Nature's Noblemen."

Touring the spacious new Kentucky Fair-
grounds and inspecting the fabulous coliseum
and the breath-taking stadium with the mem-
bers of our Board of Control, The Dutchman
realized that he had waited too long to honor
these gentlemen with the coveted Corn Cob
Pipes of Honor Award for unselfish service
to their fellowmen.

So we announce with the greatest of pride

Summary of K. F. H. S. G. S. A.
Activities for 1955-56

In April of 1955, during a meeting held at
Louisville, the Kentucky Girls' Sports Assoc-
iation elected the following officers to serve
a two year term : President. Miss Betty
Langley, Bowling Green ; Vice-President,
Mrs. Dew Drop Rowlett, Murray ; Secretary,
Miss Loyce Meadows, Ft. Thomas ; and
Treasurer, Miss Robye Anderson, Bowling
Green.

At a meeting held during K.E.A. week this
year, it was reported that our original mem-
bership of twelve has doubled, giving us a
current membership of twenty-four. Not all
of these members have clubs organized in
their schools. One of our objectives there-
fore, is to encourage each school to meet the
requirements for Active Membership (see
Constitution).

Two Play Days and organizational meet-
ings were held during the past year. One of
these was at Bowling Green in October, and
the other at Ft. Thomas in February. Eleven
schools were represented and approximately
100 girls took part in the play, and in the
planning of our state sports association. The
girls were divided into committees to work
on certificates of membership, state colors,
and a handbook. The results of the efforts
of these three committees will be in the
hands of each member by the opening of
school next September.

All of the girls attending these two meet-
ings expressed a strong desire that more
play days be conducted throughout the state.
As a result of this, a tentative schedule has
been made for a Play Day in each of the
following districts. For the exact dates, or
for further information, contact the follow-
ing: First District, Murray High School,
Mrs. Dew Drop Rowlett; Second District,
Daviess County High School, Mrs. Jean
Smith Jewell; Third District, Bowling Green
High School, Miss Robye Anderson ; Fourth
District, Munfordville High School, Mrs.
Ruby Dobson; Fifth District, University of
Louisville, Miss Peggy Stanaland ; Northern
District, Ludlow High School, Mrs. Bewley
or Dolf H. Grolock. Plans for the Central
District Play Day have not been completed.
If you are located in any of the districts men-
tioned above, plan now to attend your Play
Day.

The N.S.G.W.S. has been most helpful to

our organization, both financially and other-
wise. In December the N.S.G.W.S. conducted
a basketball clinic at Bowling Green High
School. The girls who were in attendance
requested more clinics of this type in various
sports for next year.

The fine cooperation from all members
has made it possible to do the things he have
done. By continuing to cooperate we shall
grow in the years to come.

New Designs In Gymnasiums

First in a Series of Construction Suggestions

by Dr. Don Cash Seaton

Head. Dept. of Phys. Ed.. University of Kentucky

A folder came to my desk yesterday with a
picture of another beautiful gymnasium which has
been constructed in Kentucky. Much to my dismay,
however, I find that the same old mistake of in-
stalling permanent bleachers was made. It is too
bad that school architects and school officials con-
tinue to include such an obsolete idea in a modern
building. Permanent bleachers present a terrific
maintenance problem of cleaning after each usage
that most schools can ill afford. But, more import-
ant, they rob the gymnasium of valuable space,
which is used for seating usually not more than
twenty times per year, and that could be used daily
for recreation and instruction.

RoU-a-way bleachers are the most economical
method of seating; they can be cleaned in one-tenth
of the time that permanent bleachers take; and,
when rolled away, provide additional space for class
instruction and recreation.

If a large seating capacity is desired, the play-
ing floor can be surrounded by flat balconies (actu-
ally rooms on which roll-a-way bleachers are in-
stalled. If these balconies are made wide enough,
they provide space for such sports as table tennis,
dancing, tumbling, etc., while the space beneath
allows space for rooms with flat ceilings that can
be used for showers, toilets, storage, dressing rooms
and offices. The accompanying picture shows a
gymnasium of the type mentioned.

K.H.S.C.C.A. MEETINGS

(Continued from Page Six)
general meeting of the Coaches Association in
Louisville, Aril 12, 1956: Mr. Rex Alexander, Basket-
ball Coach at Murray State College; and Mr. Briscoe
Inman, Football Coach of the 1955 undefeated
Centre Colonels.

The date of the annual East-West All-Star
games was set for August 11, 1956.

The meeting adjourned at 11:20 A. M.

Annual Business Meeting
Held in Louisville, April 12, 1956

The annual business meeting of the K.H.S.C.C.A.
was held at the Kentucky Hotel, Louisville, on
Thursday evening, April 12, 1956.

The meeting was called to order at 7:40 with
President Edgar McNabb presiding. One hundred
twenty-five members were in attendance.

President McNabb introduced the 1956 All-Star
football and basketball coaches who were present
at the meeting. Don Shelton of Henderson and Wil-
liam Tucker of Corbin were introduced as the
coaches of the West and East football teams, re-
spectively, and Morton Combs, who coached the
State Champion Carr Creek quintet, was introduced
as the head mentor of the East basketball squad.

President McNabb presented to the audience
W. B. Jones of Somerset and Russell Williamson
of Inez, both members of the K.H.S.A.A. Board of
Control; and Commissioner Theo. A. Sanford and
Assistant Commissioner J. B. Mansfield, both of
Lexington.

The minutes of the April, 1955, meeting were
read by Secretary Joe Ohr. It was moved by
Leathers (Frankfort) and seconded by Pace (K.M.I.)
that the minutes be approved as read. The motion
carried.

Along witli the reading of the minutes, a re-
port concerning membership was submitted to the
group. The paid membership for 1955-56 was re-
ported to be 739, as compared to 686 in 1953-54, and
689 in 1954-55. The number of currently registered
members was reported as 628, with every district
registered with the exception of District 51. Of the
628 members, fewer than ten paid their own dues.

A complete financial report, including the
Savings Fund, the All-Star Fund, and the Kentucky
High School Coaches Fund, was made by Ohr.
These accounts are with the Columbia Federal
Building and Loan Association, Covington; the
First National Bank and Trust Company, Lexing-
ton; and the Union Bank and Trust Company,
Irvine. It was moved by McRight (Tilghman) and
seconded by Waldon (Grant County) that the
Treasurer's report be accepted. The motion carried.

It was moved by Charmoli (duPont Manual)
and seconded by Howard (Falmouth) that a com-
mittee be apointed to represent the K.H.S.C.C.A.
in choosing a Coach of the Year in football and in
basketball, and that a suitable trophy be presented
to each of these coaches at the annual meeting each
year. The motion carried.

Charmoli and Goranflo (Eastern) spoke to the
group informally on the subjects of insurance and
the disposition of insurance claims, and on encour-
aging the best football and basketball players to
participate in the All-Star games.

As in the past, two speakers, each represent-
ing a major sport, addressed the assembly. Briscoe
Inman, Football Coach of the Centre Colonels, and
Rex Alexander, Basketball Coach of the Murray
State College Racers, both gave interesting talks.

The following were elected to take office
March 1, 1957: Ralph McRight of Tilghman, Presi-
dent; Ollie Leathers, Frankfoi't, Vice-President; Joe
Ohr, Irvine, Secretary-Treasurer; and John Hackett,
Ft. Knox, Sergeant-at-Arms.

There being no further business, the meeting
adjourned.

U. K. COACHING CLINIC

(Continued from Inside Front Cover)

be rivals in the fourth annual U. K. Invitational Tournament
next December. Harry Lancaster, assistant to Rupp since
1947. will help in the outlining of Kentucky defense.

Rounding out the coaching portion of the program will
be Dr. Don Cash Seaton, now in his ninth season as coach of
the Kentucky thinlies, and Dr. John Heldman, successful veteran
baseball coach at University of Louisville. With a panel of high
school coaches aiding in the discussion, the two collegiate
mentors will attempt to bring out some accepted methods of
teaching winning track and baseball. Both Seaton and Held-
man double at their respective schools as Director of Physical
Education. Baseball has been added to the clinic for the first
time this year.

Also part of the lecture staff on this year's clinic will be
Kentucky athletic trainer John Payne and a pair of news-
papermen, .Tohnny Carrico of the Louisville Courier-Journal
and Billy Thompson of the Lexington Herald, prepared to of-
fer some tips to coaches on the subjects of training practices
and newspaper publicity.

The usual television party and dinner for visiting coaches
is planned again at Joyland Casino where several TV sets
will be installed to allow viewing of the football contest be-
tween the College All-Stars and the pro champion Ceveland
Browns taking place in Chicago.

THE FLYING DUTCHMAN

that joining Stanford's Ralph Leedy as re-
cipients of the honor award for the month
of April are Board Members Russ William-
son, Roy Eversole, W. B. Jones, "Johnny"
Crowdus, Jack Dawson, Louis Litchfield, Bob
Forsythe and Ken Gillaspie. There will be
few ever to receive the award who will de-
serve it more than these men who have
given so much of themselves for Kentucky's
kids.

By the way, here's a short shot for those
basketball coaches already thinking about
next season's play. The Commissioner has
ruled that Kentucky will use the narrow foul
lanes during the season of 1956-57, so don't
buy any paint this year.

Two more Kentucky communities are
getting ready to go big-time in their com-
munity recreation programs. The Dutchman
has already been to Stanford this month
and is packing shortly for a "hop" to Pa-
ducah to help with recreation planning there.
The Dutchman is looking forward to seeing
Ralph McRight, newly elected president of
the Coaches Association, and Otis Dinning, a
top flight coach if Kentucky ever had one,
down in the Purchase country.

Can't help thinking, as we sign off our
last Dutchman article for the season, how
much fun it has been to have been with you
in your communities, and to have written a
few Dutchman columns, and how privileged
anybody is to be a Kentuckian.

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR MAY 1956

Why Play Football?

One of the high school coach's major problems is allaying
parental fear over the health and safety of the boys. At North
Chicago (Illinois) High School. Coach Tom Parker does this
with a direct mailing piece to the parents of all squad mem-
bers. Entitled "Why Football?" his letter is a model of sane,
sensible, and objective logic.

Dear Parent:

Why should your son play football ? Why should
he run the risk of severe injury? What good does
football do him ? He comes home late for meals . . .
he's busy after school and can't earn any money
. . . his time isn't his own ... he won-ies about
winning games ... he comes home dead tired.

Is football worth all this sacrifice and effort?

These are the questions that run through every
parent's mind. As a coach, I feel obligated to answer
them. And I believe I have the answers — answers
which I've thought out for myself, which I'd give
to myself if my own son were concerned. Believe
me, I'm deeply aware of the heavy responsibility
invested in me in the care and health of your sons.

To me, football isn't just a game to be won or
lost. It's deeply meaning-ful experience in the lives
of gi-owing younsters.

During the coming months, your son will be
required to follow a strict and stringent set of
rules. He'll either abide by these rules or be dis-
missed from the team — thus experiencing the dis-
cipline so essential in a democratic society.

What's more, your sons will frame these rules
themselves, as well as the punishments for infrac-
tions — affording another lesson in democratic ac-
tion.

Our government is based on democracy, and
our economic system is predicated on the capital-
istic principle of competition. What agency in the
educational field embodies a more vivid lesson in
competition than an athletic contest such as foot-
ball?

Your son will learn the meaning and value of
competition on the practice and game fields. First
of all, he will compete with others for his position
on the team. Secondly, he will compete against
other sons from other schools.

Your son will learn:

1. That he must get along with his teammates.
(Community living.)

2. That he will have to work hard to make the
team. (Anything worthwhile in life is worth work-
ing for.)

3. That things won't always go his way. (Ad-
justing to the adversities of life.)

4. That the only way to prevent these set-
backs is through finding out what caused them and
then trying to eliminate them by self-improvement.

Your son will learn that difficult situations
and setbacks are inevitable . . . that he must learn
to "take" them in stride . . . that it doesn't pay to
feel sorry for himself when they do occur . . .
that it's necessary to readjust and try to improve
himself.

These are but a few of the many benefits to
be derived from football. There are many others.
Football is a contact sport — man against man,
l)rawn against brawn, brain against brain. To make

the squad, your son will have to be smart, aggres-
sive, and coachable.

The danger of serious injury is extremely re-
mote. We have the best equipment available for
your son's protection. I personally am a stickler
for conditioning and can assure you that your son
will be in top physical condition for every game.

However, in order to do this, I will require him
to work hard and he may come home dead tired at
times. But even this, I believe, is better than having
him ride around in hot rods or hang around in gangs
until late hours.

I could go on and on with my conception of
the benefits of athletic competition. But this mes-
sage has already stretched out farther than intended,
and I'd like to sum up my feelings.

The coaches at North Chicago are determined
to implant a high standard of moral and social
behavior in the athletes of our school. And it should
be reassuring to know that your son will be assoc-
iating with other boys whose behavior standards
approximate his own.

Some of your sons will be able to obtain a free
college education through athletic scholarships. But
even the least talented of your sons will profit by
the lesson in democratic living engendered by ath-
letic competition.

Speaking for myself and the rest of my staff, I
want you to feel free to contact any of us on any
questions pertaining to your son or our football
program. I hope it will be possible to meet the par-
ents of every boy on my squad. This, however, is up
to the parents themselves.

I hope this note has answered some of your
questions. I hope it has clearly explained my feel-
ings and the policies of our coaching staff. In clos-
ing, I'd like to relay one parting thought: The ju-
venile delinquency rate among high school athletes
is practically zero!

Sincerely,

Thomas F. Parker,

Football Coach, North Chicago H.S.

of whom had been in his classes when he was on
the College of Education faculty at the University
of Kentucky.

1955-56 ANNUAL REPORT

(Continued from Page Two)

V. Ginger, and eighteen football officials took the
National Federation football examination for the
hig-her ratings. The basketball clinics were conducted
by Charlie Vettiner, as was the School for Basket-
ball Officials. Mr. Vettiner held fourteen clinics.
Additional meeting-s and clinics were held by the
regional representatives who continued to render a
fine service to the officials and schools in their
respective areas. One hundred twenty-four officials
took the basketball examination, with nineteen
being added to the "certified" list and fifty-four
receiving the "approved" rating.

Three hundred twelve schools insured their
athletes under the K.H. S.A.A. Protection Fund this
year. Three thousand, eight hundred seventeen boys
were insured in football; 6,324 in all sports except
football; and 211 in Physical Education. Six hun-
dred ninety-eig'ht claims, amounting to $15,310.29,
have been paid to date. This figure is approximately
$1,700.00 more than the amount reported a year
ago for a comparable period of time. The Board of
Control for 1955-56 gave each member school insur-
ing its athletes in the Protection Fund a credit of
$30.00. To date this free insurance has cost the Asso-
ciation $11,000.00, this amount having been trans-
ferred from the General Fund to the Protection Fund.

Two schools have been suspended from the
Association this year, and two placed on proba-
tion. One suspension came as a result of the
violation of K.H. S.A.A. By-Law 17, Practice of
Sportsmanship; the other for violation of By-Law
1, Section 7, Certification of Ineligible Player. Both
of the schools placed on probation were judged
guilty of having violated By-Law 17.

Interest in spring sports continues to increase.
Twenty schools sent entries to the State Swimming
Meet, which was held in Lexington on April 7 under
the supei-vision of the State Swimming' Committee.
One hundred twenty-two member schools have in-
dicated that they will send teams to the twelve
regional track meets. The interest in baseball, as
indicated by the number of teams going to the
forty district tournaments each spring, continues
to increase from year to year. The number of tennis
and golf teams continues to grow.

1955-56 has been a good year for the K.H. S.A.A.
The Association's new office building was com-
pleted in September of 1955. An "open house" was
held in the building on October 22, to which school
administrators, coaches, officials; and representa-
tives of press, radio, and television were invited.
Since that time, the K.H. S.A.A. staff has had the
privilege of welcoming- many representatives of
the member schools throughout the state who have
visited the State Office. The State Basketball
Tournament set a new record in attendance and re-
ceipts, and the finances of the Association continue
to remain in excellent condition because of the tour-
nament receipts.

The program of the K.H. S.A.A. is an ever
expanding one, and it is with sincere aippreciation
that we recognize the assistance of our school men,
who have been most cooperative in furthering the
projects and activities of the Association. Sugges-
tions for the improvement of the Association are
always welcomed by the members of the Board of
Control and by the Commissioner.

THE KENTUCKY HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE FOR MAY 1950

(The following praver was offered bv Dr.

Blake Smith at

the Texas-Baylor football game on November 7,

1953. We agree

with the editors of The Illinois Interscholastic

:. the Wisconsin

and Michigan Bulletins who, in reprinting

it. wrote, "the

praver expresses in such a fine wav the bas

ic philosophy of

inter-school athletics that it is reproduced

here for vour

thoughtful consideration.")

"Dear God and Father of our lives:

For one brief moment our voices

are still, our

excitement is relaxed and we lift our minds and
hearts heavenward. And no sooner do we lift them
than some things become clear, as when the sun
suddenly breaks through the clouds that envelop us.

It is clear that Thou has given to us life with
many different shades and colors. For this we are
grateful. We humbly accept the fact that some
things in our lives are not very important. They
are to be enjoyed but not taken to seriously. The
occasion that brings us together today is one of
those happy interludes in life. Help us to accept it
as such.

In Thy presence we know that no issues of great
importance are going to be settled here this after-
noon. No souls are g'oing to be lost or saved by the
final figures on the scoreboard. No great cause is
at stake. It is one of those pleasures which Thou
hast meant for Thy children to enjoy. Do not let us
spoil it by forgetting that it is just a game — to be
enjoyed today, talked about tomorrow and forg'otten
the day afterward. Keep us mindful of this, dear
God, for we are human and we easily lose our per-
spective and allow the things that are most impor-
tant to become the victim of the things that are
least important.

In Thy presence it is clear that the really im-
portant thing here today is not the visible score
but the invisible spirit which all of us — players and
spectators alike — shall manifest. For the young men
who play, our prayer is that they shall maintain the
spirit of good sportsmanship throughout every mo-
ment of the game. If possible, preserve their bodies
from physical injury, but because it is more import-
ant, preserve their minds and souls from every un-
worthy intention or act.

For ourselves, our prayer is that we shall have
a kindly spirit which transcends our separate loy-
alties; that we shall be careful to show good man-
ners as becomes mature people; and that every
thought, word and deed of ours shall strengthen
the bonds of admiration and respect between these
two fine schools. May we be gracious in defeat or
humble in victory.

We make this prayer sincerely, for we know
that when the spirit and the act are good and right,
everybody wins and nobody loses. So let it be with
us here today.

For Thy names' sake. Amen.

— Texas Jnterscholastic Leaguer.

The Educational Yardstick

In these columns, and in many others, we fre-
(juently read that all parts of the total high school
program must be justified from the standpoint of
educational results. We have heard that anything
that does not square itself with this educational
yard-stick should be made to conform or to be
thrown overboard. Good, sound advice, too; if you
don't get picayunish about it; yes, or downright
silly.

In the days of the sacred "Seven Cardinal Prin-

ciples," school administrators and teachers, dazzled
by this shiny new measuring gadget, sometimes went
to ridiculous extremes. Attempts were made to
measure each small facet of the whole educational
experience in terms of these "Principles." For ex-
ample, a school administrator was reported to have
discarded a geometry text because it said nothing
about the worthy use of leisure! This winter spent
an unprofitable portion of a summer graduate course
in counting the number of pages in each of a dozen
civics texts which could be said to meet the ob-
jectives of the "Holy Seven." Reported on this earth-
shaking piece of research with a perfectly straight
face, too. Probably there wasn't much wrong with
the "Principles," only with some foolish people who
went overboard in trying to use them.

Carrying this idea to another field, it is doubtful
that a rummage sale by the women of a church
group can, in itself, be justified as a religious ex-
perience. Yet, there has been no concerted move-
ment directed against rummage sales.

It is just as problematical that all forms of
extra-curricular and interscholastic activities can
always be measured by a stern educational yard-
stick. Certain phases of these programs keep slip-
ping out from under the ruler and refuse to be
measured. But there is usually something that will
justify the progi-am, and no one with good sense
would root out a tree because it had a few bare
branches. Neither would they disband the Ladies
Aid because their rummage sale and silver teas do
not, in themselves, contain promise of eternal life.

Many of the pleasant, but not necessarily impor-
tant, facets of school and church life do not directly
or immediately further the ultimate and final aims
of these groups. Yet, we ask ourselves what a
church would be like without such unified efforts
as a rummage sale. Furthermore, it is doubtful that
a school can provide the best possible environment
for the learning process without such pleasant things
as basketball games, debate activities, music festi-
vals, etc. Without such as these, 't would be a drab
place, indeed.
