Apache fell before the Company F five of Hyattsville, 24 'to 1t is highly undesirable for an in- terscholastic or intercollegiate bas- ket ball team to have a large number of plays. A few good plays well mastered are far more valuable than a large number half mastered. Four or five plays from the center posi- tion, thoroughly understood and co- ordinated, are enough for one sea- son. I believe that plays from the center are more effective if they are given periodically and not every time the ball is put in play at the center. Such a procedure permits of conservation of energy on the; part of the center, which makes it| possible for an_inferior jumper to secure the tip-off at times when the signal is given. Such a procedure! necessitates an organized defense at | times when the signal is not given.
