Basketball players of the city who desire to get into the senior class of
the summer coaching school now be
ing formed at the Y. M. C. A. under the leadership of Coach Ray B. Mowe, of Earlham, are requested to attend the first meeting to be held Monday in the Y. gym at 7 o'clock. Boys must be over 16 years old to join this class. This will be the first meeting of the older boys' class, and no actual work will be done. Coach Mowe will give an outline for the work of the course this summer and stated that he
thought with the class meeting two evenings a week, the course would be completed in six weeks. Any basketball player or person interested in basketball in Richmond is eligible for these classes. The plan of the course is for the development of play and will be given from the coaching, playing and refereeing standpoint. After taking this course a person should be capable of handling any one of the three points with
ability. Coach Mowe is very anxious for persons planning to play independent basketball this winter to get into this class, and some very important point
ers can be obtained that will be of great help to any basketball player. This is practically the same course that a person would get in attending the summer coaching school at the University of Illinois or other univer sities. Being a graduate of this school, the coach will use the same notes that he used while at the school. He will teach the plan of basketball used bv
