- National ‘Basketball League.

Two teams were dropped from ..mach circuit to form the new outfit, but that still left a total of: 18 and set up a terrific job for! the league moguls when they meet a week from today in Chi: cago- to figure out a regular season schedule. ~Podoloff said a round-robin]

~pehedute-in-which-each-team-with

play every other team the same number of times in home and home series, will not be possible. But, he said, all teams wij] play each other at least oncp. | At the Chicago meeting the league will be divided into two! divisions, with the season starting around Nov, 1. This creates a number of pos-|

——wibilities, the basic factor in]

which is the question of whether | teams from the Kastern and! Western divisions will compete against each other during thei regular season. The situation is further complicated by the lack of stadium space in some cities. One thing was certain—there will be a complete rescrambling of all the old alignments with

--teams- from both the B.A.A. and’

the NBL in each division, The BAA teams dropped were Providence, R. I, and Indianapolis. That left New York, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, Wash-| ington, Chicago, St. Louis, Boston, Baltimore, ‘Rochester, and Ft. Wayne, : Two Others Eliminated The NBL eliminated Hammond, Ind, and Dayton, 0. That left Anderson, Ind, Syracuse, Sheboy- | _ gan, Wis,, Tri-Cities (composed of | Moline and Rock Island, Ill, and’ Davenport, Iowa), Denver, Indi-

“_._anapolis and Milwajkee. “The last

two teams joined the NBL since. the close of last season. | The Indianapolis team is made up of the University of Kentucky! . Wildcats, one of the most famous’ college teams of all time, which! joined the NBIx “en masse” after graduation last year, League headquarters will ‘be " New York. Podoloff, in addition!

to being named president, was

also placed on a committee along! -with President Ike Duffey of the! NBL and Leo Ferriss of Moline! to settle all disputes involving players. This committee also will! decide what's to be done with the! players on the four teams Wipe out.

That evened it up for the night before, when the Saints had the jitters, The Saints got their first run in the third on three hits and an error by Beard.
