Conservation Department Makes Few Changes Among Executives
By MARC G, WAGGENER
Now that things are settling down: again-around: the
conservation departmént, maybe you'd like to know who's who and something about them, especially the head of the
various divisions.
There's been a lot of talk about politics in the department and the turnover in personnel with the changing ad-
ministration.

First, I have no ideas about what changes in rules should be made. The paying fans seem to lke it as it is, so that's the Way it will probably stay. ?
Work as Team
Officials work as a team from opposite sides of the playing floor,’ Each man is concerned mostly with the play to his right. Hence when a team rushes down the floor, one official, follows the offensive team all the way down to the corner of the floor and may cut across the end of the floor to watch for fouls and y/toss-ups. Meanwhile, the other official is back at midcourt awaiting for the defensive club to become the offensive team at which time" the officials reverse their duties, I'm tired of being screamed at,! “cant’'cha keep up,” when I'm the short man (the one at midcourt). That's where I should be. What would happen if both officials were under a basket at the same time once the- defensive team grabbed a rebound or intercepted a pass nad started a fast-break the other direction? There wouldn't be an official there, I've never seen an official or fan who could run as fast as the player can throw that ball.
