NEW NET RULES ARE EXPLAINED The new basketball rules adopted ; for the 19.12-33 season were demon-1 strate.l by two Decatur high school teams and Herb Curtis athletic director, before u crowd of Adams county fans at Decatur high school! gymnasium last night. The changes In rules received ail ■ sorts of friendly and unfriendly criticism following the exiplanaticn.' but the general consensus of opin-' ioti was that the game would be much faster. Much more responsibil-1 ity is placed on the officials, and the coming sei son will be i<n need ; of fair and unbiased referees. The chief change in the rules is ' the one giving the offensive team only 10 seconds to bring the ball , from the back court to the front ' court. After the ball is passed the center line, there must be eithr a shot at the basket or a held hall, before the offensive team can pass the ball into the back court again. Another change Is one concerning the pivot. If the ball is passed into the foul circle to the pivot man on the offensive team, the pivot man must pass the ball within three sec- j ends. In ease a team violates either of the time rules, the ball goes to i the opposing tarn out of bounds, where the offense was committed. Other fine points of the game were demonstrated by the ipdcked teams, and numerous fa’.ts were shown. The clinic was held to show the fans that rules in order that

WOLVERINES HAVE BATTLE y I Chicago. Nov. 15.(U.R) — Mich-! ? iigan's undefeated, untied team I s I which has seemed to play just hard i (enough to win in its last three • j games will have to throw the throt- 1 ' tie wide open against Minnesota at | 1 1 Minneapolis Saturday. 1 j On its record Michigan will be i favored to defeat Minnesota, com-1 “iplete the season without a loss or] i a tie and annex undisputed poss-1 r ession of the Big Ten title, but! i( there’s more than an outside! ichance that the Wolverines may j lose to the Gophers. Minnesota s Cig problem is to I bottle up Harry Newman and pre-1 ■vent him from throwing any of his ■ long touchdown passes or finding' his receivers covered turn a pass | 1 , into a long run. Barring Newman's passing and j ! running Michigan has shown a deJcidedly feeble offense in its last ( three games against comparatively ■ > weak opponents.

It took a 34-yard t i I run by Newman, a pass by him and cone to him to beat Indiana. 7-0. : Against Chicago, crushed 37-0 by I Purdue the previous week. Michi-; ! gan made only four first downs I ‘ and made its two touchdowns on I I 76 and 27 yards runs by Newman • (for a 12-0 victory* Michigan, usually a late starter,. reached its peak during the first! half of the season by beating three i (strong teams in succession. Mich igan State. 26-0. Northwestern. 15- i 6. and Ohio State. 14-0. Michigan i humiliated a young Illinois team.! 32-0, but since that game the Wol-■ verines have either held back or ( didn't have it to put out because iof their fast start. A strong defense, however, ban , permitted Michigan to relax and take it easy after gelling a score and the team may be getting its ; second wind for a whirlwind fin-' , ish against Minnesota. , The extreme cold weather in ; Minneapolis in late November may i hamper the Wolverines' passing I attack, and also may render the entire team less effective. A snowI storm such as drove the Minnesota squad indoors yesterday might' be disastrous to Michigan. Minnesota is a better football; ’ team than the cold figures show.:

Ted Holding these gorillas oil in the last period would be his job He had a quarters rest on them—but Howard Jones would be alternating Saunders and Duffield “Thirty-seven,” Barney whispered as Ted went in A long pass to Donley which the end caught after a sensational backward leap First down on their twenty-eight. The Trojans were eyeing Ted respectfully; calling out defensive signals, trving to guess his play as Pat had smeared theirs. But Barney didn't leave any keys lying around carelessly. “Let's go." Pat cried. “You’re in Chicago now—expect anything you great big he-men." Drive. . Spinners. . . . fakes. . . Pidge was hot. Moving ... along gradually. First down on the seven. Stone s spot a swing around end —if vou can make all-American, Tom—go. . . . Atta boy, Tom—dive Stone fumbled on the one-yard-line Damn the luck! Shivers kicked out on the first play. Ted brought it back ten yards to their thirty-eight. . . . Their line held on the first play. . . Fool 'em. . . He started Sheets on another drive off tackle, pivoted, ran back pursued by three white jerseys, passed down the field to Donley who was in between two white jerseys. . . . Ted was knocked down, didn't see the finish, knew something was happening from the. roar of the crowd: got up. contemptuously eyeing the chap who had spilled him— Touchdown. ,How in hell had Donley ever caught that ball and gotten away? But there he was, grinning Kick this point and take the lead —one point might win this game. Take your time Damn! Six to six. Southern Cal started back. ... A first down through the line, another from a pass that Sheets just missed intercepting—attababy. Pidge Pidge had intercepted the next one, leaping high in the air. White jerseys getting tougher now, sending tn substitutions. lust before the half ended Ted returned a punt twelve vards to their thirty-five Pidge and Stone eked out a first down Fool 'em Stone hadn't passed this year They'd be expecting a wide run. Ted went down the field as a decoy for Donley who was to sneak along the sidelines and catch the ball in the corner near the end zone It was - coming Saunders leaped, tipped it, Donley, leaped, tipped it. Ted leaped, hugged it. dragged somebody one two thr e e yards and fell hugging the ball just over the goal line, smiling bark at the white-jersey'd guv who was trying to drag him back But no touchdown The head linesman had seen Donley step out of bounds for a foot on his way down: according to the rules that made the pass incomplete the moment Donlev touched it Ted argued that when Saunders touched it first Donley had automatically
The Gophers have lost two games, but both of them were extremely close 'and to two of the strongest teams in the Big Ten. Purdue banded the Gophers their first de-1 ; feat, 7-0, in the second game of the season. Considering the fact that the Gophers were playing their j second game under a new coach, their showing was remarkable. Wisconsin beat Minnesota. 20-13. week, but scored the winning touchdown in the last 30 seconds of play. Waiting until fourth > down to punt with only two min- ' utes left to play probably cost Minnesota a tie. The pass from ; center was bad and Pug Lund, couldn’t kick and Wisconsin took ' the ball on the Gophers’ 45-yard I line, from where the Badgers j threw the winning pass. Minnesota's outstanding triumphs were a 7-0 victory over Northwest-

Barney was composed. But the Trojans opened up with power; heavy, chugging, tank-like battering The big offensive. Brute and Pat were under everything; the rest of the line rallied; stopped it on the thirty-two-yard line after four consecutive first downs. The spot for a pass. “Take it away," Pat cried. To make sure, he dropped back and made a basketball catch of the pass; stemmed the rush but the Comets were in a tough spot with first down on their nine-yard line. Ted dropped back. The old coffin corner was far, far away; white jerseys would be bearing down to block it But this was the spot. Ted put everything from his instep to his pelvis into that kick; it sailed high and far, true for the corner, eluded Saunders on the bounce and hopped out on their twenty-eight-yard line. The crowd roared. Ted's mates swarmed about him. Out of the hole. “Time to go to town.” Pat cried. “Come on, you supermen, let’s see some of that coast football." the Brute demanded. “You wouldn’t hold out on us." The Brute's left arm was hanging almost useless; but everytime the water boy came in Brute instructed him to tell Barney he was all right and uul to take him out. The Brute loved it The line smeared two plays. . . . Rushed Shivers on his kick. It was short and high. Ted took it on the run. near the sideline at midfield. heard Barney cry: "Go—Ted boy.” Go for Barney!

First down on the thirteen anyhow A thirty-five yard return. “California, here we come." Pat was laughing at their anxious faces. The spot for Stone. A wide swing. . . . Over! No—damned old eagle-eye claimed he went out on the three-yard line. Stone was raging. Calm down. Tom Three vards to the goal The greatest crowd pie-eyed What play. Wvnne?

Thirteen to twelve. Whoo-o-o. No celebration in the dressing room; everybody played out. They had power all right. Smvely's eye closed tight Stone having his legs rubbed. Pidge laughing, telling his Father, "my nose always gets in the way." The Brute's arm would be all right The old doc would have a big week in the gym with the lights and the whirlpool. Back to the hotel in buses. “Now the handshaking begins," ■ Pat observed, “and I’m ten up on those handshakers now” “That's what you get for win- , ning." “I’ll trade twenty handshakes for a stiff hooker of rye." Pat declared “Well." the Brute said, “my old daddy will be in that gang—l'll be proud to shake his hand " Ted was mildly shocked. The Brute had been a raging superman on the field—Achilles to one hundred and twenty thousand people. Now he was a kid again, hoping that his old daddy would be proud. A squad dinner before the alumni banquet—and a few of the boys had their dads there Beaming, proud daddies, too. Pidge's dad. distinguished, and Brute's dad. a threadbare little man with proud eyes; Brute's mother must be big Pat’s father looked big enough to spank Pat yet—he was a Chicago policeman—but he wasn’t spanking Pat tonight. After dinner Pidge and Ted rook the former's fathei to meet Barney In bed again with little Barney’t arms around his neck, asleep Fun. y to see Harney in bed all the time—a gvy like Barney. Ted traded a ftw handshakes for a couple stiff hookers of rye and spent the evrning wandering around; Pidge was sore about it but Pidge wouldn't stay sore—and Ted had an idea Pidge and his dad would enjoy the evening together: Ted had an idea that Pidge had iust been discovered by his dadand the old boy was sort of pathetic. Two stiff hookers of rye made a fellow feel good; made him feel like philosophizing about things just by himself When a guy was by himself with a couple of hookers to warm him up he could think about what he wanted, interrupt himself, argue with himself—give himself hell and forget it. talk to the figures oo the front ot the art museum—give them hell if he wanted too Ted had been wrong about liquor —a couple of stiff hookers after a hard day never hurt anybody Ted bad been wrong about a lot ot things; but a guy could only do the best he could and do what he thinks ia right CTo Be Cootwuedi
