King Basketball has ascended the • krone of Hoosier Sportland to reign supreme until March 16. No iracrtant rules ne-e-'Mtoting changes in style of play have been proe’aimed by the King of Sports, and since it is too early for anyone to icevra-elv se'ect leading high school teams, the chief topic in Basketha'l n"’>' is How will the style of Basketball vary this year from las.. f " ‘ Will the pivot line style of offense reign again in Indiana high school Basketball, or will the success of the Loganberries influence other teams to adopt a new style.'* T’ e Divot 'ine stvl« of offense was used last rear by seventy-five eont of Indian high schools.

If this comes true. 1 feci that Indi: na high school basketball will be helped considerably. Variation in stvles of offense creates more interest than when all teams use the same or sim’lar stvles. People tire of seeing. the same offend veer after vear. If all football teams used the Notre Dame cvs.- P m we would see a ra-id dec'ine in football interest, but the use of other enually effective styles keeps interest alive.
