CAGE TUTORS BUSY FIGURING OUT NEW USE FOR TALL BOYS Ball Will Be Put in Play From Out of Bounds by Team Last Scored Upon maneuvers for tall boys. The National Rules committee for- mally removed the center juinp from the game except at the start of periods, after an all-day tussle Wed- nesday with the recommendations for changes in the code. The revision was adopted for ® one- year trial, and was the only import- ant change made. For a year at least, the ball will be put into play from out of bounds by the team last scored upon, with the likely effect that an already fast, thrilling game, will become faster and more . The move was made after three-years of experiment by the southern division of the Pacific Coast conference. Any hope that reduction of the ex- ceptionally tall player's effectiveness at center through the elimination of the jump might be compensated through a revision of the “three- mendation that a player be permitted to remain indefinitely, in the outer half of the free-throw circle without possession of the ball, which would have made possible a modification of the “pivot” or “bucket” play, in whiclt tall players used to plant themselves in the area to convert high passes into shots.
