The shrill sound of the referee's whistle will play a much less conspicuous part in the coming basketball campaign than in the games of former years. By a new rule de signed to lessen the din and the wear and tear on the officials' lungs, the joint rues committee has pro vided that "when the ball is tossed up between two players, the whistle is not to be blown exceot at the be pirning of a period or after time out."

B4 would be one of the choice. greatest trouble in the Michigan' game. It had plenty of backs who could run with the ball bat nobody to block, and, as a result, none of them ran very far. GILBERT IS GREAT BACK No doubt Michigan has produced greater backs than Louis Gilbert, but certainly there never was a better halfback than the Gilbert of Michigan who scored the 21 points for his team against Ohio state. Gilbert's great punting was a threat that Michigan held over Ohio State throughout the game.

Gilbert gave a performance that was on a par with his exceptional punting.

Chicago is Ohio State's next on ponent, while Princeton meets ytl Htm and Mary. Chicago, after its defeat by Oklahoma in the opening games of the season, has trounced two Big Ten rivals, Indiana and Pur due, and vanquished Pennsylvania. Ohio State, to cope with Princeton, must Improve its play at least 25 per cent.

State, on the surface, appears to have great potential strength but so far has failed to make the most of it. WANTED BLOCKING FLAYER In the Michigan game, the Ohio State line more than held its own, although it struck me that the Michigan ends, Captain Oosterbaan in particular, outplayed their opponents. It was in fundamentals of the game that the losers seemed weakest. The tackling was very ordinary, the interference poor and the real need of a good blocking back was apnarent In this connection. I recall a conversation I once heard between a prominent southern coach and a former star who played under him.

"Coach, you are going to get a preat dron kicker and a fine open field runner In John Smith, from our high school next fall." said the formr star. "That's fine, but can he block?" was the way the coach dismissed the plwer under discussion.
