Asked to name the outstanding up- Set or surprise of 1933, sports editors and writers put Notre Dame's col- lapse at the top of the list with 33 votes while 28 others singled out the Irish come-back against army, there- by concentrating 61 out of a total of 204 votes on events surrounding the South Bend athletic institution. The only rivalry in the balloting was furnished by the New York Giants. The world baseball champions also surprised 31 experts by the rapidity with which they beat the Senators in the world’s series. ‘The complete vote on the upsets of surprises follows: Notre Dame's football decline.... 33 Victory of Giants over senators... 31 Notre Dame's victory over Army .. 28 Giant's pennant victory .. 18 Downfall of Ellsworth Vines + 5 Max Baer's knockout of Max Schmeling + Primo Carnera’s knockout of Jac!

DEAN (Head Basketball Coach, Indiana University) Bloomington, Ind., Dec. 21i—Changes in the basketball rules for the cur- rent season are few but sensible, with the direct result that the two greater and dfense—now have about the pro- per balance for a sound game. Changes in the code this year “dress up” last year's radical changes. The new rules last year were well received in almost every gy section of the country. A most impor- tant change and one with a direct bearing on the welfare of basket- ball in high schools is the change in the Placing of the center line under the 10-second rule. bo. 2c; Last year this line Everett Dean was drawn through the center of all courts more than 60 feet in length. The new rule provides for division lines which will be 40 feet from each end line, parallel to the end line. * ee floors under 75 feet in length. The fine thing about this change is that uniform playing conditions have been established for the game. This was not true yast year, when the 10 pl ers were crowded in small offensive zones, thus causing more bodily con- tact, rougher playing and necessitat- ing the calling of more than the usual number of personal fouls. The three-second pivot rule of last year has been modified slightly. This will prove a boon to the official, but handicaps the pivot man. The new pivot rule states that a player shall Not withhold the ball from play for more than three seconds in his free+ ‘less of the position of the pivot man This change, however, affects only _GETA LOAD OF TH, FAT BLOKE WITH TH) PLUS HAT SNIFFER—~HIS NOSE MAKES A Basketball Rule Changes Few But Simple, Indiana Mentor Declares in these confines, the rule is the same, ee * ‘The new substitution rule provides that a player may not re-enter after leaving the game three times. The old tule permitted a player to re-enter the game once, but not twice as the 1933-34 rules permit. This change is looked upon with favor, as it allows (will tend to relieve any extra phy- ‘sical hardship on indivdual players. Another change in the code neces: sitates the handling of the ball on all out-of-bounds balls in the front court. This rule will curb the “quick pass-in” plays from out-of-bounds and increase the number of set plays in the offense. This rule was made to avoid any misunderstanding as to ee team had possession of the xe * Last year the offense had 10 sec- conds in which to advance the ball across the center line, and once across the line the ball could not be passed back over the stripe until a sHot had been attempted, an out-of-bounds or jump ball play called or a recovery of possession of the ball. Under those conditions, any man on the of- fense could take the ball back across the center marker. This year the rule is essentially the same except that only the man recov: ering the ball after one of three above ;Plays has occurred can take the ball jto the back court, across the line. This action must take place immed- lately after the recovery of the ball. This change greatly simplifies the | work of the official on this phase of the game. If any player other than the man recovering the ball takes the ball across the line, it is a violation and the ball goes to the opposing spot to the violation.

D., Dec, 21.—The Central United States Ski champion- ships tournament will be staged at the giant slide of the Lake Region ‘Winter Sports club near here Jan. 14, {according to a communication receiv- Jed from Julius Blegen, retiring secre- {tary of the Central association, by Ralph Graham, secretary of the Devils Lake club. The Lake Region organization was awarded the meet at the annual meeting of the Central association held in Milwaukee last month over the bid of the Norge Ski club of Chi- cago. ‘The Lake Region club has the larg- est and most spectacular slide in the Central association, constructed last year, which is the main reason this signal honor was given Devils Lake. The slide was constructed last year under the surveillance of Peder Fal- stad, Devils Lake’s member of the 1932 Olympic team, and is considered! @ model slide by ski clubs all over the nation. Foremost Skiers Present ‘This outstanding meet, second only to the national tournament in import- ‘ance, annually attracts the foremost skiers of the nation who literally shoot the works after participating in 8 series of club tourneys. Casper Oimoen of Minot will de- fend his Central championship de- spite reports that he might turn pro- fessional, the captain and ace per- former of the United States Olympic team has stated. Oimoen has held the Central title for seven consecu- tive years, successfully defending it at the association’s meet held in Chi- cago last yedr.

Although nothing definite can be said yet, there is the possi- bility that the livelier ball will bring such stars of a few years ago as Wilson, O’Doul, Babe Her- man, Chick Hafey, Bottomley, Frankie Frisch and Kiki Cuyler back near the top of the batting list. Back in 1929 and 1930, when everybody was hitting hard, they were right up among the leaders, but when the ball with the thick- er cover came in, their averages dropped fast. The consensus of expert opinion 4s that the 1933 National League ball would travel as far as the American League sphere when hit squarely but it brought fewer base hits on topped drives through the infield and similar “flukes.” Bismarck Athletes Active as Jimmies Bismarck athletes are unusually active at Jamestown college this year. . Four of them, members of the Jamestown College football team, champions of the North Dakota Intercollegiate Athletic Confer- ence, recently were awarded minia- ture gold footballs. ‘They were Robert Edick, chosen captain of the all-conference team, Gus Schlickenmayer, Russel Enge and Edward Agre. Agre won the freshmen handball championship at the college last week by defeating Victor Keltgen in the final. He advanced to the final by eliminating Patterson, Greer and Larson.

Although he slipped to seventh place in the earned-run !column, he was crowned champion {of them all again by his official record of 24 victories and eight defeats. Monte Pearson, who came to Cleve- land from Toledo of the American Association July 5, led the league in pitching effectiveness, winning 10, losing 5, and hanging upan earned- 1un average of 2.33. Joe Heving of Chicago and Jack Russell of the jchampionship senators, relief pitch- ers, ranked second and third with jearned-run averages of 2.67 and 2.69 respectively. Russell Van Atta, Yan- kee southpaw, was rated as the truc runner-up to Grove in pitching hon- ors, however, with his record of 12 victories and four defeats. Cleveland, Washington and Detroit held their opponents to an average of less than four earned runs a game, whereas the average for the entire eight clubs was only 4.28 as compared with 4.46 in 1932. Five games of the one-hit variety were pitched during the season.
