Show Coaches Ponder Basketball Bute NEW YORK, May 2 U.K The national basketball committee of the United States and Canada will complete its two-day meeting today to-day with election of officers and a few minor changes in the playing play-ing rules. In the opening session yesterday, yester-day, Dr. Forrest (Phog) Allen, chairman of the research committee, commit-tee, recommended raising the goals from the present 10 feet to 12 feet, contending it would tend to less the advantage of the taller teams. The committee also tested test-ed new types of backboards. Several of the coaches were reported re-ported in favor of four 10-minute quarters for college teams instead of the two 20-minute halves now played. |
