Tuesday night’s game will bring together the Ameiidm la-gion and Knights of Columbus teams Rules of the game, as drawn up by Ralph Miller, owner of the , string of donkeys, are as follows: Every placet must ride a donkey and shall play the game entirely on this donkey, dismounting only to pick up the ball; always provided. of course, that if a player falls off he may remount without lieing penalized. The ball is to be tossed at center to start the game, also after each basket, either center being i allowed to tap or catch th? ball ,as long as he is mounted. It is permissible for one player to take ' the ball away from another as 'long as he is mounted. HoweverJ I deliberately pulling a player off IPs donkey is a personal foul. In - shooting fouls, the player must be! either seated or standing on his j donkey. On loose balls, the player must ride to the ball, keep hold of the donkey's halter while dismounted, and must remount before shooting or passing the hall. Guards ! and forwards n.-e not allowed to | cross the center line, hut th? centers may roam all over th? floor.
