The Kentucky Hgh School Athlete Offcal Organ of the Kenluck,y Hgh School Athletc Assocaton Vol. - No. 7. FEBRUARY, 1940 $1.00 Per Year. From the Presdent~s Offce As ths s beng wrtten, a meetng of the Board o Control has just been called for the afternoon of February loth at the Brown Hotel n Lousvlle for the purpose of dsposng of certan serous charges made aganst several of our member schools n connecton wth the elgblty of ther players and the use of undue nfluence to secure players from other dstrcts. No attempt s here made to pre-judge these cases snce many of the charges made n other years have proved to be almost wthout any foundaton. However, no prncpal need be surprsed when hs neghbors become suspcous of hs apparent preference for mported athletes over the, home grown varety. f fnal a rrangements for the state tournament are not completed at the Lousvlle meetng, the Board wll meet n Rchmond on the 23rd of February to complete these arrangements and to dspose of all questons o f elgblty whch are rased between now a nd February 15th. Whle the rules of the State Assocaton requre that all protests must be made before the 15th of February, the Board has no ntenton of knowngly pem1ttng any nelgble player to partcpate n the dstrct, regonal or stat<:: tournaments. * * * * * Schools holdng dstrct a nd regonal tournaments must dstrbute the recepts accordng to t.he plan outlned on page 27 o{ our Assocaton's booklet unless the schools agree by unanmous vote upon some other. plan. * * * * * For the beneft o-f new prncpals, we repeat here several rulngs whch were taken from Volume, No. 7, of The Athlete: 'The drawngs for dstrct tournaments have al ways dsclosed msundersta ndngs relatve to the meanng of several of our tournament rules. n the course of years n many decsons nvolvng such cases. the Board has unformly held : "Frst, that a drawng made at any tme after due notce has bet::n receved by all schools s bndng upon all. ''Second, that when a school s notfed of the proposed date of the drawng and does not appear to parttctpate n the drawng or to protest the drawng, that t has lost ts rght to appeal to the Board of Colltrol. ''Thrd, that a school can not prevent the holdng of a drawng by mere falure to send a representatve. 'The Board has recently held that a drawng made earler than two weeks before the tournament s vald under the rules. t has also held that the Board can not enforce an oral agreement pror to the drawng to the effect that f certan condtons prevaled another drawng would be held. t has always been the polcy of the Board not to undertake to enforce oral agreements. 'The managers of the dstrct and r egonal tournaments ha ve the rght to set the tme of games but the Board strongly ad vses that the wshes of the schools be taken nto account before the tme s set and that the tournament managers exercse ther authorty only when the schools seem to have made an unwse choce." --- -:---- BUT THE HORSE SAD "NAY!" A fa rmer had an old blnd horse whch had o utlved ts usefulness. One day the horse fell nto a well and the farmer found hm there, standng kneedeep n the water. There was no way to get hm out, and as both the horse a nd the well were useless, the farmer decded to fll the well up and leave the horse bured n t. He shovelled drt nto the well as rapdly as he could. But the horse was not ready to be bured alve. When the drt began -to pour n on hm, he shook t off and kept treadng on the drt under hs feet. Gradually the well flled up and the horse, at the same tme, rose hgher and hgher, untl he was able fo step out a nd walked away to the pasture. The moral? Oh, yes; t s ths: None of us can be bured undt::r hard tmes, dscouragements, a nd worres unless w e are wllng to be bured. ----:---- - From "deas."

Dear Mr. Brdges: As near as vve can tell at the present tme the proft that we made on our Shrne All-Star Football Game wll run n the neghborhood of $3,786.5.5. As far as we know a ll blls have been pad and all money has been accounted for and we have turned th.s amoun t over to the Brace Fund of the Sh1 ne Crppled Chldren's Hosptal. want to thank you and all members of the board that helped make ths game the success that t was. thnk that we made some small mstakes that we can change from year to year, but naturally n any great undertakng as ths, some mstakes a re bound to crop out. Ths amount s more than double tbat w hch we cleared last year so f we can contnue for a few more years we w ll then reach the goal that we have set. Very truly yours, A. F.

All of ts offcers are board o control members who are elected by the schools themselves. t s weak or strong dependent on the wllng ness of ndvdual school leaders to support ts actvtes and promote ts polces.

Ths rule s now n effect. As a result, no ootball g ame may be ~ ched ult:cl after the frst Saturdav n D ecember and no basketball game may be scheduled after the state fnal tournament. T hs acton on the part of the schoolmen of the state s n harmonv wth the trend n the rest of the naton. T he rule ~v ll prevent the spread of a p ractce whch threatened to extend the football season throughout the wnter months and the basketball season tj1roughout the sprng months. t wll be noted that ths rule prohbts the schedulng of practce games between schools durng the sprng football tranng season. The schedulng of such games led to consderable agtaton for the elmnaton of all sprng football practce. Any dsadvantages n holdng such practce s p robably brought to a mnm um through the elmnaton of actual games between schools durng the sprng. One of t he reasons for the adopton o ths rule s the tendency of certan commercal enterprses, par.. tcularly n the southern states, to brng n dstant teams for the purpose of advertsng- a communt v. Schools were beng used as pawns n these advcrtsrg schemes. n m any cases the dstant school was dsrupted through absence of tpe entre squad plus team ollowers whch often ncluded the band.

P..\;{agurc The report o the njury commttee was delayed pend ng the makng o summarks. t w ll be sent o ut at a la ter datt:. RULE MODFCATONS T he major changes from the rules fo llow: 1\0TE: t should bt: understood that ths s not meant to be a complete summary of the actvty of the commttee. The detaled report wll be made up at a later date and suppled each member of the commttee. The present draft ~ made wthout any effort to properly word the pro\'son. Ths materal s merely for the convenence of member~ of the commttee who may choose to publcze the commttee acton.. A slg ht change wal' made n the rule whch (kals wth the touchng of a forward pass by a second elgble player. The new rule wll provde that the to uchng by a second (or any greater number) elgble player wll not result n dead ball. A ny orgnally elg ble player may comple te s uch a pass and adva nce or t may be ntercepted and advanced by o pponent. 2. The rules relatve to any ncompleton n the opponents' end zone or nterference n the opponents' end zone are to be brought nto harmony so that the spot o enforcement wll be the ~ame n each case. On frst, second or thrd down, the penalty for a pass whch s grounded n the end zone. or or a pass whch s touched by an nelgble player n the end zone (major ncompleton) or for nterference by the passng: team n the end zone, wll n each case be enforced from t he spot where the snap was made. l any of these occur on fourth down, t wll result n a touchback. A slght supplementary change was also made so that when an nelgble player touches a forward pass, the-ball s not dead a~ soon as touched. t wll contnue n play untl the down ends o the regular manner. Th$ makes t possble for T eam B t<> ntercept a pass after t has been touched by an nelgble player. f the pass touches the g round fo l lowng the llegal touchng, t wll then become an ncompleton as n the past. Under the new r ule the to uchng o f a forward pass by a n nelgble player s merely one form of pa~ s nterf<!rence a nd t wll be so lsted. Consequently, there s no longer any need to make a dstncton between a mnor and major ncompleton. As a result, these terms wll be dropped. J. \Vhen an llegal shft occurs, the Referee wll L>e nstructed to blow the ball dead as soon as he ol>~erves the nfracton. As a result, there wll be no pos:>blty of a declnaton of penalty for ths foul. The change s desgned to elmnate waste acton whch under the present r ule often follows such a foul. -l. n the nterests of more equtable enforcement, the penalty for any foul w hch occurs durng a rushng play (no kck or pass) wll be ether from the spot or the foul or where the ball s dead. The offended team wll ha ve the opton of choosng et he r of these spots. T he only excepton wll be n case the foul s n advance pf where the ball s dead. l n that case, ~nforccmcn t wll be from the spot where the ball, d< ad. 5. n addton to these actons on major matters. there wll be several mnor changes for purposes of,a f ety or smplfcaton n admnstraton. 6. There was consderable sentment n favor o 'l vcral major proposals. Among these arc: a. A proposal to remove all lmtatons on number of tmes a player may re-enter. Comment : The commttet: felt that t would make lttle dffe rence n the ga111c but were restraned by the fact that th~ r ule seemed radcal so they held t over for more study. b. A proposal to blow tht> ball dead mmedately for any foul that happens whle the ball s beng snapped, provded t s one that comes under the jursddon o fthe Referee. Comment: Seemed lke a good rule untl t was hrought out that the rule would keep a Captan from exercsng hs opton on the play. To be studed more. t would take a lot of pressure ofe the referee and may prevent njures du rng a perod when the ball s sure to be called back.. The commttee ndcated an overwhelmng m a jorty n favor of ultmate acton o n the followng but dd no t choose to make adopton at ths year's meetng: a. A proposal to pem1t any number of forward passes durng a down, provded they a re all started rom behnd the lne. Comment: The commttee t>lt that ths rule would be a good dea becau~c t would tend to ease the stress of a lateral pass back of the lnt>.. one should go forward then there would be no need to call the whole play back. T hs r ule has been used n several lest games n llnos
\ jor FEBRUARY, 1940 Page Fve for several years and t has been found th<-.t t made no materal dfference n the game. lf ths rule should be adopted at a later date, the commttee would be able to take several paragraphs cornp:etely out of the rules and thus shorten the book and do away w th several exceptons and take an awful headache out of the r ules for the offcals. b. A proposal to prohbt any player from beng out of bounds to set up a play and then comng back n to touch a loose ball. Comment: Ths would have been passed but t was found t hat t would be advsable to study the condton more. t was questonable what tq do n the case of a man who had been blocked out of bounds. n the case of proposals 6a and 7a, the commttee recommends adopton for expermental purposes durng the l\!40 s~ason by conferences or states n order that these may be tred out on a large scale to provde adequate data relatve to the ultmate effect on the game. The commttee decded to lenghten t he tme between haves to 18 mnutes. But to nforce strctly the rule that the teams must be on the feld and ready to play n 15 mnutes (Penalty- R3, S2, A2, Page 20). rhus they would enforce a 3-mnute warm up perod. (Wsconsn and New York h;j.ve kept detaled data on njures for several years and t hey found that there were more njures occurrng n the frst 3 mnutes after the 3rd perod kckoff than durng any other lke perod durng the game. VVsconsn has enforced the 3-mnute warm up perod for several years and ther statstcs show that they have had a decded decrease n the number of njures n the second half sn,fe the rule has been n force. The commttee was nfluenced to gve t a try by ths data.) Several mnor changes were made n order to make the rules conform n mnor detals to the collegate rules, such as the rul1g on paddng on the outsde of thgh pads, sze of cleats (:h) and manv othe small changes that wll not be notced. Alun1num cleats are recognzed as offcal and may be used at wll. Many sentences and rules n the book wll be rewrtten to clarfy the meanng that the commttee wshes to get over. For nstance, t wll be planlv stated that no player may be prostrate and hold the ball on any P lace Kck of Kckoff. The rules have been smplfed a great deal and that players, coaches and offcals wll be able to read the rules and understand them better ths year than ever before. - - - - :---- A DSCUSSON OF THE METHODS OF THE FOOTBALL RULES COMMTTEE OF THE NATONAL FEDERATON By J. R. MOUNTJOY The Natonal Federaton Football Rules Commttee has apponted a new sub-commttee ths year that has never been lsted before. Ths new commttee s known as "The Game Admnstraton Commttee" and Mr. S. D. Jackson of Johnson Cty, Tennessee, s t he Charman. The Author has been apponted a member of ths commttee to serve untl January 1941. T hs commttee wll nclude n ts work, study and expermentaton n connecton wth clppng, pass nterference, matters pertanng to changes n goal posts, elmnaton of the second half kckoff and other suggestons n regard to admnsterng the game. The Federaton Rules Commttee has made. t a pont never to change a rule unless t was to the advantage of the game as a whole. t may be necessary to n~ake chjl.nges to clarfy a rule or to.smplfy t so t hat the book may be more easly read. For many years there have exsted n the Federaton Gude pro\sons that have been handed down rom the College Gude. Some of these provsons were set up to take care of stuatons tjlat may not arse one tme n an offcal's lfe. t has been found that such provsons may be su cken from the books and the condton that they were supposed to cover placed under other headngs. Thus the commttee has been able to take many exceptons out of the rules. T he comm ttee never makes one of ts so-colled Radcal changes untl the proposed change has been studed from every angle a!_ld has had from one to four years actual game expermentaton under supervson of sub-commttees.. So t may be n ecessary for the Author to ask several schools to conduct experments n some of your games ths fall. assure you that you wll be a great help to the commttee n arrvng at a logcal concluson concernng such suggestons. An dea of the methods used by the commttee may be ganed from ther treatnent of the proposal to allow a team to pass forward any number of tmes as long as all of the passes (forward) start behnd the lne of scrmmage. A conference n Southern lllnos was asked to adapt the rule for all of ther games one season. That was 3 years ago. They lked 1-t so well that they are stll usng t and unanmously recommend.ed t to the rules commttee. Ther comment was that the rule made lttle change n. the game, yet, t saved the offcals from havng to g uess sometmes whether -the ball went forward on an attempted lateral back of the lne. t seemed to help the lateral pass game wthout ma kng any apprecable dfference n the forward pass game. There arc a lot of coaches who bate to see a change n the rules because they are sa tsfed wth the rules as they are now. \Vel, we do have a good game but there are numerous nstances whe.re a small change n the rule wll help the game. lt s nterestng-to see tl'le results of the Questonares that are returned by the H g h School Coaches from all over the country. E ach year proposed changes are lsted and voted upon. The results are tabulated by states and -then as a whole group. Almost nvarably the frst year that a- proposal appears on the questonare the coaches vote aganst t about 5 to 1. After about 3 years the majorty wll be for t. f the rule commttee passes the proposal, t s put n the code for one year. Then t s put on. the questonare for t he next year and the coaches are asked to vote whether t was satsfactory or not. An dea of the approval of the commttee's work can be had by studyng the results on ths year's questonare. am almost ashamed to put down the total score for the coaches n Kentucky who were nterested enough n the game to fll out the questonare and return to me. To my great surprse ONLY 24 coaches n Kentucky returned the questonare. There were s..x major changes n the rules last year. sh.all lst the yes and no vote of both Kentucky and then the Naton.

Defense s not lke offense. Th e offensve team must have at least seven men on the scrmmage lne when the ball s pu t n play, but the defense s not restrcted to a certan number, hence we have -the several defensve formatons. Coaches usually nstruct ther quarter backs to look over the defense before callng a play. The defense at the tme the qua rt<;:r back calls the play mght be usng a 6-2-2-1. As t he offensve team comes up to the scrmmage lne t hey mght s hft n to a 5-3-2-1. The org nal play that the quarter back called was an off tackle play wth the tal back carryng t he ball. The end a nd wng back are assgned lo box the tackle n, t he blockng back and ullback to ta ke t he end om and the strong sde g uard to block the backer up. f the defense shfts nto a fve man lne t here wll not be a tackle for the end and wng back to block.!\t least h e won't be 1,1 t he same poston a s he would be n a sx man lne. Ths holds tr ue for the other postons. The blockng assgnments were dfferent or everybody, consequently t he play d d not work and the quarter back was g ven credt for callng a poor play. Two years ago we played a team that used a fve and sx man lne aganst us and snce we were not prepared for a ftve man lne we were unable to scor e! on them and the game ended n a deadlock. Ths past vear t he same team started wth a fve man lne ( usng ther sx some) and as we were prepared aga nst ther t wo defenses we were able to defeat them. P'or t he pas1 four years we have used the Huddle a long wth a s hft n our backfeld. About the mddle o{ ths past year we dd away wth the shft (due to the [act t hat our opponents were watng tll we s-tarted our shft before they showed ther defens<:) and came out of t he Huddle and lned up n our formaton. We nstructed the lnemen as they came out of t he huddle to look over the defense and cal l out the defense. f the q uarter back had called a play for sx man lne and the deft'nse shfted nto a fve man ln e, the quarter back called o ut hs sg nal for a change of play n the same manner that was employed before t he advent of the Huddle. Ths way t dd not matter to us what knd of a defense the opposton used. The strong pon t to ths system of callng plays s that the defense has to show tself. Vve wll probablv do away wth the huddle a nd shft next year. \Ve beleve t ha t n the next ew seasons coaches from all sectons of the country wll do away wth the huddle as well as the shft.

Page Eght The KENTUCKY HGH SCHOOL ATHLETE Partcpatng Sehools Should Seleet Loeaton for Regonal Tournament By ROY KNGHT, Prncpal, Maysvlle Hgh School Last year offered a proposed change n the rule of the K H. S. A. A. whch sets forth the plan whereby the locaton of the regonal tournament s determned. Under the present plan the ste of the regonal tournament s selected at the $ame t111e the schools place the dstrct tournaments and by all schools regardless of whether they wll or wll not have a tea m n the tournament. 1 proposed that representatves of schools who arc to be n the regonal tournament meet the day followng the dstrct tournament and select the locaton for the regonal tournament. 1 have always been of the opnon that only partcpatng schools should vote on the locaton of the regonal tournament. Last year ths proposed plan was defeated. However. beleve that t s sound and should have addtonal consderaton. There are numerous reasons for allowng only partcpatng schools to select the ste of the regonal tournament. Among them, the most convncng are: (A ) Snce the proceeds arc dvded among the partcpatng schools, t s to ther advantage to gve some consderaton to the probable recepts before selectng the place. Everyone s aware that the gate recepts wll be consderably more f the host school has a team n the tournament. And, of course, there s no way to determne what teams arc gong to be n the regonal untl the dstrct> have been played. Also, schools would rather hold the tournament when they have a team n t. (B) Ths suggested plan s hghly democratc. There s no reason why school A s ho uld decde where school B shall l)ay a tournament f school A does not have a team n t. At present thrty to forty schools select the ste where eght shall play. Ths reduces tself to where actually the schools not n the tournament select the place where those who are n t shall play. (C) Ths meetng of partcpatng schools wll gve all an opportunty to help select offcals and settle all problems concernng the operaton of the tournament. (D ) Some wll say that ths plan docs not gve enough tme to advertse and prepare for the tournament. Ths objecton has almost wholly been overcome snce each team looks after ts own food and lodgng. \.Vth ths, much of the tasks of puttng on tournaments has been elmnated. As for advertsng, what better news story could your local papers carry on Monday mornng than the locaton of the regonal tournament? The plan that am offerng proposes that we strke out Rule 3 under "Rules and Regulatons Governng Basket Ball Tournaments" and nsert the followng: The secretary shall prepare a proper ballot, and o n or before January 15 s hall send o ne to each member school wth a request that the proper authorty cast the vote of that school for the locaton of the dstrct basketball tournament. On Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, representatves of schools whose teams were wnners or runners-up n the dstrct tournaments shall meet at the schoo l most recently holdng the regonal tournament, select the ste for the regonal tournament, pck offcals, etc. E ach school shall ha ve one vote. n case of a te, decson shall be made by flppng a con. A school representatve must be present n order to vote. fh~~~~~~;a;hle~d~;-- 1 641 Man Street, Cncnnat, Oho Congratulates the K entucky Hgh School Athletc Assocaton on ts actve and progressve program.

Schools must assume the same atttude so that ther, tudcnts 111ay enjoy normal lvng wthou1 too great a curtalment of ther personal rghts. ndustry has reduced ts accdent rato by 75%, and the prncpal method used has been our specalty, educa ton.

One need only to very casually revew the s tatstcs beng comped throughout the naton on hgh school athletc njures to be convnced that somethng needs to be done about the stuaton. The answer as to what s to be done w ll come from the men who are out on the actve front as coaches, physcal tranng drectors and play-ground supervsors. t s true that some effort has been appled n ths drecton but the problem has only been touched. Tn the nterest of the hgh school boy who partcpates. shall the game rules be changed further, shall better equpment be desgned. shall more a<jcquatc medcal nspecton be requred, shall more ddntc tranng rules be nssted u pon, shall more adequate frst a d be provdcd, do coaches need better tranng n regan] to the ht~alth of g rowng boys, do we need more and better supervson of santary condtons n the dressng room and sho,wer- these a nd many more brng to mnd ample food for thought and research. - owa H.

Page Ten The KENTUCKY HGH SCHOOL ATHLETE To the Coaches attd PrneJtals of Kenttteky 1 am o the opm10n the Kentucky Hgh School Athletc Assocaton should apply to The Natonal Federaton of State Hgh School Athletc Assocatons for membershp n the organzaton. The prmary purpo~e of the 1~atonal body s to coordnate the work of the vanous states and to assst all o them through provdng a means for exchange of de_as and formulat!on of polc~s for the gudance of h1gh school athlet1cs. The nat10nal body has strengthened the state bodes. _Before the natot~al organzaton was formed some ol the state assocatons had dffculty n enforcng th er rules. n the old days t was not uncommon_ for a school ~o fl?ut the authorty of t he state assoc1at1on for the vjoatjon of some of the elgblty r ules, they smply made up a schedule wth schools n some other state. Consequently suspenson was not a very s eve ~e _penalt:y. After the formaton of the nat1onal assoc1a hon, th1s was corrected because, f any school s suspended by a state assocaton, t s now llegal for them to play any school that s a member of the Federaton. The same thng apples to the strengthenng. of state pohces. f one state were to take a pro~ress1ve move whch mght not be favored by orgamzatjons such as newspapers and other promotonal bodes, the pressure would sometmes be so great. that state organzatons would not dare to t.ake acton. However. when such s backed up by the consdered judgment of all the hgh school athletc leaders as represented at a natonal federaton meetng, there s no reason for anv state to hestate about takng some acton whch 's n harmony wth the best natonal educatonal polcy. W e have broadened the state wde program n Kentucky and have greatly strengthened the nfluence of the state assocaton n au matters pertanng to hgh school athletcs. Many of the servces whch are rendered to the Kentucky schools by the state assocaton have beeu made possble or more effectve through the program or the natonal organzaton.. The dues n the natonal organzaton s twentyfve cents per 1000 pupls enrolled n the hgh schools of o ur state. l do not beleve t wll cost the stat<! more thau twenty-fve dollars a year, f that much. * * * * * The followng suggestons are to be voted on by the coaches at ts Lexngton meetng n March as to whether they wsh to propose the same to the Kentucky Hgh School Athletc Assocaton at ts annual meetng at Lousvlle n Aprl.. K.. S.C. A. recommend to the K H. S. A. A. that the assocaton apply for membershp n the N.F. S.H. $.A.A.. K. H. S. C. A. recommend the payng to each Basketbal team upon arrval n Lexngton or the State Tournament the sum o $175.00 nstead of the present arrangement of furnshng room and board. Wth ths $175.00 each pay for ther hotel room and meals. After a team s elmnated and the school wsh to go home n order to save some of the $17500 t be ther prvlege to do so.. K. H. S. C. A. recommend to the K. H. S. A. A. to change Artcle of the By-Laws to read as follows: All contestants wll become nelgble on ther nneteenth brthday. Also, remove the followng sentence n Artcle of the By-Laws: No student who ha~ been enrolled n the hgh school (grades 9, 10. 11, 12) eght semesters shall thcreater be elgble. From a survey made the past year we beleve that a far greater number of boys under nneteen years of age wll become nelgble to partcpate n athletcs before they graduate than the number n ther twenteth year who wll b~:come nelgble on account of age. Thc.:rc are qut..: a numlcr o boys n Kentucky hgh :>Chools that wll graduate at nneteen years o age who wll not be able to play basketball or football ther last semester n hgh school due to the eght semester rule. 1 am of t he opnon a boy under nne teen s mor t~ enttled to play n h s nnth semester t han a boy n hs twenteth year playng hs eghth selllester. \ny number of boys lose a semester n school (or o ne reason or another. Most of the t wentv year old boys have played four or fve years on a hgh school team, whereas so many of t he younger boys never play on a varsty team mo.re than one or two years before they graduate. A Sxteen year old boy n the grades s as physcally ft to play basketball or football as a junor n hgh school sxteen years old. Students are graduatng from hgh school today younger than they dd fve or ten years ago. Therefore, beleve the nneteen year rule and the remo, ng the semester lmtaton s by ar more equtable rule than the present one. f we pass ths rule we wll be n lne wth the trend of other progressve s tates. 1\.
