R M. M C. C is this Each school will play each other school twice during the season season season seas seas- on once at home and once away One school will travel to the other side of the confer conference nce and instead of playing a double header with one school will ill play one team Friday night and another team Saturday night On their next trip across the country they will meet two other schools on alternate nights Thus next year if the tIle new plan goes through Utah will have a twelve game basketball schedule six at home and six away and i every team in the conference will meet each other team twice which should establish a winner without necessitating a play-off play unless of course there is a tie at the end of the regular playing season At any rate there wil be no more division of the conference into Western Vestern and Eastern halves so prepare yourselves yourselves yourselves your your- selves for something new in collegiate collegiate collegiate col col- col- col basketball next year Instead Instead Instead In In- stead of just hearing vaguely about Denver Boulder and other Eastern Division Schools University sity students will be able to see every team in the conference play at least one game |
