    J50 Try Out for
Iowa Mat Team
, Iowa City, la., Dee. 1. With only
one man mining from last year's
i wrestling team at the University of
4 Iowa and nearly ISO men trying for
' placet on the varsity, Coach Harold
(Mike) Howard hopes to develop a
quad of grapplers this season ca
"pable of taking first place in the west
,( ern intercollegiate conference. The
''honor position was lost by Iowa to
I ., Indiana last year by just one point.
1 ' Among the men reporting daily
for workouts ' are Capt. Charles
I , Sweeney, western intercollegiate
. champion of the 135-pound class last
i year; Robert Smith, who won sec
ond place at 145 pounds; Robert
Hunter, who won second place in
Ihe heavyweight class, and Vajina,
y.who won third place at 125 pounds.
' L. C. (Ty) White, captain of. last
' year's team, did hot return to school
" this year. He wrestled in the 175-
pound class, and his berth will likely
1 be rilled by Hunter, former heavy-
I weight man on the team. This will
' : leave Iowa without a heavyweight
f representative unless some nev man
' proves capable of holding down this
, - division. ,, ' ,
Howdy, who wrestled at 165
! ( pounds last year, is expected to re
; i port for practice in the' next few
1 days. Johriny Heldt, Belding, Glen
; Deving and Gordon Locke of the

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.

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.
Suk-stitutcs upon entering the
game are co closely approach the
referee in order to report to him
and be recognized by him before
participating in the game.
