Coach lirafit Explains Rudiments NEED HEAVY CANDIDATES Only 35 men appeared before Coach Krafft on the first night of basketball practice. Last year about 70 men answered the first call. Thursday night, the second prac— tice, several more men appeared but the total only reaches 40 now. That is a disappointing turnout. After a few minutes of basket- shooting Wednesday, Krafl’t called the men together and introduced King Simpson, captain, and Hank Faulstick, manager. He then gave a. short talk on how to train and keep in condition. Krafft then ex— plained the principles of the over— hand chest shot and started the candidates practicing it. Later a short drill in passing was started. Thursday Krafft added drills in pivoting and hook-passes to the other fundamentals. In two days the coach has been able to get a fair line on the ability of many of the candidates. Simpson, Rossing, Robin, Ott, Miran and Rutkowski are known quantities, so much at— tention is being given the new candidates. However, none of the men mentioned are sure of their positions, for the best man gets the job. Very few men appeared to have the weight and size Krafft wants. From the 40 men out now, a fair team may be developed, although the team will not be large or heavy. Practice will be held on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from now on. November 18 will prob— ably find the squad on the Armory floor. Rossing Manager of Sophomore Cage Squad Harvey C. Rossing, C. E. has been chosen by President Lucian Billings to manage the destiny of the sophomore basketball team. The sophs are rather optimistic this year, as they have a lot of good material left from the past year’s efforts, in their ranks. It will be remembered that the Senior Class, champion basketballers last year, had a difficult time nosing out the present sophomore class. Carlson, Billings, Stalzer, and McClennan stars of last years fray are all in school and eligible to play. These men are the reason why the sophs dare to have hope. Late Sport Notices Wheaton 10 Armour 26 Wheaton College’s cross country team, champions last year of the “Little Nineteen”, showed that they were on their way to another cham— pionship when they defeated Arm— our last Saturday, November 2, at Washington Park by a score of 10 to 26.

Their fine is as foi~ lows: first hour, fifty cents; second hour, twenty-five cents; third hour, {fifteen cents, and fourth and each ‘succeeding hour, ten cents. The fine per day is the sum of the hourly fines, which amounts to two dollars, unless this sum is greater than the cost of the book, in which case the latter amount is substi— tuted. The Montana State College has its fine fixed at a straight ten cents per hour with the daily fine placed at the same rate. At Vanderbilt University the rate is twenty-five cents per hour. The hearse—mu Enthusiasm Basketball has made its first how at Tech for the year. If enthusiasm makes for a successful team, Ar— mour will win many more games than it will lose this season. Things didn’t go so “hot” for the Krafftmen last year, but as the old saying goes, -“Better days are coming.” The baseball team winning thir— teen out of fourteen games this Spring offers a very handsome rec— ord for these basket shooters to aim at.

The daily fine may be raised to one dollar, if necessary. The University of Kansas places the fine on reference books which are turned in late but denies 01‘— fending students the privilege of drawing out such books. Appar— ently this is an efficient method of insuring the prompt return of books which are in demand. At Bradley Polytechnic Institute a flat hourly rate of ten cents is charged.

Inter-class Practice There will be no inter-class bas— ketball practice in the gym until after the middle of November. Since the Varsity squad uses it for practice on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday and the boxers on Tuesday and Friday, there is small chance for the class teams to get going on any of these days. How— ever, as soon as the Tech Varsity moves over to the Armory several vacant days will result. only with permission of their pro— fessors.

W. King Simpson, Captain, very ably assisted the coach in giving the “prospects” a merry run around. Roessing with his blushing cheeks of red was also at hand to push the ball through the hoop. Robin and Ott, “incorpulated”, were very ‘much alive to the goings on of the evening. Rutkowsln', sometimes pronounced, “Rootlmwski”, did some fancy tunes on the highly polished floor of the gym. This fellow Miran is a very clever man on the floor, he seems to be every place at the same time. Juniors or Seniors? Sophomores take to your heels; to win the school basketball title you must first remove the Fresh- man from your path and then it will be the Juniors or Seniors.
