at 2.30, 5.80 and 9.15 p.m. it has been abused, and probabl; will be revised this year."
Chandler sponsored the change lest year'as president of the National As-satiation of Basketball Coaches. It was designed, he explained, to reduce the tendency of teams which were trailing by one or two points toward ihe end of the game to foul deliberately. By doing this, he said, the losing team could gain possession of the ball after its opponent mide or missed its free throw and possibly Score a basket to win or tie. f The present rule enables a team to decline a free throw any time during the game. This, he said. has resulted in abuses of the privilege of declining a free throw. A case in point, he said, was the game at Madison between Wisconsin and Carleton College of North-field, Minn. At one time during the game Carleton was trailing by 8 or 10 points, but still passed up attempts at the free throw line, according to Chandler.—United Press.
