PRODUCTS STATION- Street, Omaha, Neb. New Interpretation of Cage Rules to Prevent Wrangling Over Various Phases of Game By JIMMIE BAUOH. Much of the wrangling in basket ball over misunderstandings in. the interpretation of the rulea will be obliterated this season by a number of desirable changes which were made in the rules by the natioual rules committee at a meeting ir. New lork recently. In the center and other jump ball situations, each jumper is required to place one hand in contact with the middle of the small of his back and keep it there until the ball has been tapped. i he rules of last year left roofti for various interpretations, and the result was that this rule often brought on heated discussions. 1 he distance the plavcrs must stay from the junipers is left to the discretion of the referee this year, so there can be no further debates on this point. A player receiving the ball while standing still may take one step in any direction while in the act of putting the ball in play in any man- iVo Towel or Sponge Throwing Goes; Says State Commission Hear ye, seconds and managers. There won't be any sponge or - towel throwing as a signal of de feat, in Nebraska. If your fight er is getting the worst of the con flict, or is about ready to hop off into oblivion, keep the sponge in the bucket where it belongs. This is the gist of law laid down this morning by Boxing Commis sioner John Kilmartin, following his suspension of John Lee, an Omaha heavyweight, for attempt ing to stop a bout in this manner at the Cudahy Athletic club show recently. Kilmartin quotes this rule of Section VI: ' "The seconds are forbidden to throw or splash any water on the boxer during the bout or between the rounds, nor throw or cast a towel in the ring as a signal of de feat." . Another rule states that the ref eree alone has the power to stop a fight when either contestant shows marked superiority. Injured Harvard , Player Gets Letter Cambridge, Dec. 1.

I i MM tier desired,, s tit h as dribbling, pass ing or'bhooting. This greatly simplifies the offi cial's problem and standardizes the player's action. The former rule pro hibited a player from taking such a step if lie dribbled the leather, but permitted it in disposing of it in all other ways. i .- "Time out" mav be called for by a captain only- when his team is in possession of the ball, unless a play er very evidently has been injured, when "time . out" may be called immediately. In making substitution for auy player a time limit of 30 seconds is allowed. Consuming more time than this results in a "time out" being charged. A time limit of one minute is pei milted, however, in entering a sub ttittite for an injured player without a "time out" being charged. Under no condition is a "time out" to extend beyond two minutes on or before the expiration of two min utes play is to be resumed.
