The rule which gives a fouled player an extra free throw chance, if he misses his first shot, during the first 37 minutes of a game, has caused cozisiderable discussion relative to how much extra time is consumed.

Coach Don Meek of Ottawa University has arranged to have one man, armed with a stop watch, devote his time to checking the exact amount of time so consumed through the course of-the tournament. The man will time each player who takes his second free throw after missing his first, during the first 37 minutes of each game.
