BASKET BALL RULES CHANGED
Implre Is Supposed to Watch Who
Have Not the Ball.
NEW YORK, Sept 4. The rules govern
ing the game of basket ball have been
revised by the national committee of six.
The changes adopted are numerous. Under
the new rules the umpire's duties undergo
a slight change. He Is no longer supposed
to watch the man with the ball and his
opponent, but the other eight men In the
game. The holding and rough play which
have developed aa a result of the fact
that both the umpires have in the past
watched the struggle over the ball will,
It is expected be eliminated by the new
ruling. This will also make the referee
work harder than ever to catch fouls.
In the future the scorekeepers will be
obliged to compare the score after eaci
goal, and In case they do not tally call
the referee immediately. The referee must
otherwise accept the larger score. The
committee mdde a change in the rules for
dribbling which Is of great importance.
Now, if the player who Is dribbling the
ball down the field stops and holds the
ball at reBt in one or both hands he will
be obliged to throw It for the goal or to
another player. If he wishes to continue
the drlpple after stopping, he must keep the
ball bouncing up and down as he stands.
Formerly, if three players put their
hands on the ball at once, the side having
two men touch the ball fouled. Now if
two players are struggling for possession
of the ball, a third man who comes into
bodily contact with either of them Is
penalized, but he may reach under them
and secure the ball without a foul If he
does not touch them.
It the referee calls "Play ball" and the
members of a team for some reason fail to
take their places at the end of the min
ute, the referee will throw the ball Into
the air and the play is started anyway.
An Important change was made in the
boundary line. In ' the past the line has
been inside. Now any player or the ball
touching the line at all Is outside. The
ball la outside if a player standing on the
side seizes the ball or it is thrown to htm.
Glass backgrounds for the baskets are
legalised under the new rules. Thse have
until now been illegal.
