New Foul- Throwing Rule Will Change Basketball T'BALL promises to be a different kind of a game this year because of the new foul-throwing rules, even tho the rules in themselves do not seem so drastic. Many teams, in the past, however, h depended upon,an ac-| curate free thrower to pile up points for them. The un-| canny free thrower will still have his inning, but will not occupy such an important place in the picture. It is required now that the pls throw, instead of the specialist in the art, Altho free throw- ing looks easy, it is a hard stunt to learn without assidu- ous practice, and guards, in particular, are not likely to be spending their spare time learning how to toss the ball thru the hoop. _ | Army Captain “ew ado for Next Year on and he \\ ited two free th jer thin rule against him joting for with an stasteful to many fol ketball’ particularly idual throws reads trip, on pponent dribbling ig int GARBISCH A © ono free throw rbisch of Wash- the foul is commit designating the manner in | Pe throwa “Mitac pataeaal ng college all for Garbisch began his Washington and Jefferson and was honored by being elected cap- tain of one of the W J during 1 ted under any Point The rule which free fouls are to be fol been seven attempted’ read r -upon whom the mitted shall w or throw teams athletic career at that He entered West Point nd for three yea red on the Army elev e picked for many perts’ All-America elevens. 0 injured that hem me his substitute m tame ‘by reason ot] CGE CO.
