CITY All plans for the city basketball tournament which will start next| Tuesday night at the Boys' club were brought to completion last night at | |an enthusiastic megting of about 1n |managers d@nd players in the clul £yYmuasium and nothing now remains but to await the passing of time until |the firat real title quest in the {tory of the sport begins. Twent seven teams have fuifilled the strict | regulations laid down by the tQurncy committee and are now rounding their playing machines into final shape as they wait for the opening | whistle. The meeting last night was a much greater success than anticipat- ed, cager players and manage {crowding the north bank of bleach- ers and overflowing onto the floor John E. Tobin, central board offirial | and member of the tournament com- mittee, explained and clarificd many of the doubtful points regarding the | playing rules and the calling of fouls. Numerous questions from the players were asked as he went along and these evidenced the interest of the teams. Many questions which | had puzzled the players were thus settled officially and it is hoped by ! the committee that the explanations | will eliminate all doubts ness of rulings made in the actual coursc of tourney play. In many cases a player is perfectly honest in' questioning if he has committed a | | foul, Jack Tobin told the committec | when he suggested this interpretation meeting, and it was to cxplain exact- |1y what constituted violations that| the gathering was held. Hearings On Players Questioned players and teams were given hearings when desired, | the cominittee and managers agree- ling to and carrying out the principle |that the letter of the rules miust be |observed. Kenneth Frost, Co. | \cntrant, was disbarred as a non- sident, while Hilding Bengtson and | ¢ |D. Merline were crossed off the Em- erald list as not being bona fide members of that team. W. Mcln- erney of the same organization was given the stamp of approval when | Manager Jack McGuire produced his scorcbook, while a newspaper clip- | ping verified “Chick” Charlow’s right to play with the Lions. The vari- ous players whose names had been duplicated on entry lists of miorc |than one team had alrcady expr {ed their preference when weighing | in, 5o this occasioned no troubl: night. The problem of allowing ward Norke to play with two ir settled very promptly upon sovery that “he” were two differ fent hoys. | Seven teams out of the 33 entrants | {left after the withdrawal of the Bur vitts, failed to qualify, this being| lurgely due to their neglect to by weighed. No satistactory excuses {for this failure were produced by lany players and no time cxtensions |were granted, although Nathan Ze- |vin and his intermediate Celtics con- |ducted a tengthy argument to allow 'l'mr Hubay 1o be welghed and hring their team to the required Drawings Vor First The committes then procecded fo pair oft the teams for their con- tests in the first round.
