- SPECIAL RULES -
(Continued from Page 3)
or higher personal will have to go
to the sidelines for only one min
ute. ,
In order to prevent excessive
fouling on’ the part of individuals
who might seek to^ use the "no 1 -
foullng-out-rules" rfs an excuse for
roughing opponents/ referees will
have the power at any time to send
a player from the 1 court for the re
mainder of the game If he com-
Shilts a deliberately flagrant, vio
lent foul.
A special “fouls keeper" will be
with the score: keeper and will
keep a record of ;the fouls and pen
alty times. Play will not be stop
ped to allo\v a player to reenter as
soon as his penalty time is com
pleted. He will have to wait un
til the first time th% ball Is dead
before he can resume play. j
The highly controversial twb-
minute rule also will be changed
during the competition.' During
the final two minutes, when a man
is fouled, the ball will be dead
following his free shot—regardless
of whether he makes It or not.
Jump at Charity Line
The dead ball then will be tossed
up for a jump between the player
who was fouled and the eager who
fouled him, The jump will take
place at—the nearest free throw
circle. The clock will be stopped
when a foul is called and will be
started as soon as the ball is tossed
Ten teams are already definitely”'
set for the tournament: defending
champion, Tyler, Allen Academy,

Garcia Aiming for Pro Ranks
Homer Adams, captain of the
’46 Aggies, and local insurance
salesman and real estate agent,
won Garcia’s praise as the most
outstanding eager he has played
with. “He never stopped hpstling,”
commented Garcia.
The 170-pounder would like to
play pro ball, but as yet has re
ceived no pro offers, “ijf not,!’
said Mike, “I’ll go on and get my
masters In PR,”
He considers Ralph Beard of
Kentucky as the greatest! player
he has ever seen. Garcia klescrlh-
eil him as a wonderful hall hand
ler who never missed the hoop
anil ioould fake you out of your
underwear, ”1 know,” said Mike,
“he did It to me,”
As to the most exciting game
he ever participated In, (iaivla,
along with almost every Aggie
eager, answered “this season’s
Baylor game.’’
Garcia lettered during the Md-
’47 and the ’47*’48 cage campaigns
