A PREVUE OF TIlE 1952-53 SEASON 3

III BII EAST

THE BULOVA WAroElMAJtiiU) have nine veterans of lost year I s team return ing Last year IS Bulova team as a commendable ODe and should rank as one of the top threo teams of the East

TIlE BROOKLYN WHmLAWATIl laat year s Eas tern Chompions are intact and possess the same spirit and fight that should ronk them the team to beat in the East

THE BRONX ROLLERS have a tev veterans returning but at this point of the season look as though they w111 need an additional aBsson before they come into their own But they may be the fly in one of thB league leader e soup

TB HALLORAN WIZZ KIDS a new member of the Eeotern Association but ono of the oldest wheelchair basketball te8IDfO bas reorganized Incl uded amons their playerl is Jack Gberhardt wheel chair All-America 1951 and tormer member of the New Jersey Wheelers This te8JII 18 rated the dark borse of the East and Eastern teema are not taking them lightly

THE JERSEy WHEELERS now composed of quite 11 number of amputees are not conshysidered in the rlmDng for top honors by ofticials of the Enstern Association The Wheelers have beet mown to surprise JII8DY teams so we are waiting tor the resulte of the first few games

THIl QUEENS CHhRIOIIlERS composed of civilian polio disabled are a most enthusimiddot astic team but it is felt lack the experience leguired to make their mark dur1llg the current season

TEE Namp1 YCIRIC SPOKESMEN l ost none of last years pl ayers and hove gained the experience to make a definite bid for Eeatern laurels

INDEPENDEwm (lgtiembers of the National Wheelchair Basketball Association but because of their Geographic l ocation are not members of one of the conferences or leagues)

NEoI EKllAlID PVA figures to once again be the outstanding independent teem in the country Their personnel is in t act including their able and amiable coach Bill OConnor

MAGUIRE VA mAM (Richmond l Virginia) has not been reported but it is understood they will field a good teem and will be affiliated in cooperation with the Ea3tern Association

WESTElUI CONFEl1ENCE

ST LOUIS ROLLIMJ RAMS onee again rank number one in the Western Conference lheir team is in tact with the additioD ot several youthful 1D9mbers They tace a tough schedule in that every team in the Conference is pointins for their games with St Louis

KANSAS CITY PIONEEllS alW03S a contender and much improved rank number tvo in the West and will not be taken lichtq by any team They have experience 8~ed skill and a fiGhting heart

SEASONS PREVUE (cont) 4

THE MDlPBIS TENNESSEE DEADDiOERB I a respected team are in their first season with the Western Conference of the Bational Wheelchair Basketball AssociatioD and therefore much remains to be seeo Reports list them 8S a most formidable team and one to be much respected To them comes the role of a most proud Clard hors l

HANNIBAL (Mo) ROCKETS are revamping tbeir team and have added one or tvo most promising players They are a never say die team and this could be tbeir year No one 1s overlooking the Rockets

ILLINOIS GIZZ KIDS have lost three of tbeir first five from last season and four ot their first eight Three ot these via graduation Although they bave many new boys coming up ooly four men on the squad have as much 8S one eea80ns experience bebind tbem Therefore J they are an unknown quantity and oot ranked too high

SIOUX CITY (IltJrlA) WHEELERS are a new team organized by I1l1nois Gin Kid alumnus Bill Fite They definitely will not have the experience or the ~erooanel ~o mampke their mark this season but are working toward the 1953-54 season

First of the new teams is the Sioux City team already in operation

Correspondence has been initiated by T1m Nusent on e lead given him by the Kansas City team with a teem in the process at formotion in Cleveland Ohio Not too much is known about this development at present

Ben Lipton reports that a teBJ1 is in the process of being organized at the Institute for the Crippled and D1aab1ed in Belt York City

There are efforts to organize teems in Milwaukee Wisconsin and Quincy Illinoie

A teem at amputees 1s functioning in Detroit Michigan but DO favorable contact has been established - - - - It is hoped that the California Flying Wheels who play Association teams each year w111 declare its active membership in the Association

CANADA AND EllaquolLAND HAVE BEEN BEARD rnalt

The Eastern Association has received a request tor competition tlom a paraplegic team in Vancover Br1t1ah Columbia Here 18 b6ptng this can be accomplished at least once or twice during the eeaeon Teams in Great Britain have also expressed their interest in international competition witb American teams Porhnpamp we can have our own Junior Olympics in 1956

Senate Committee Detectives Pry into St Louis third National Championship

Each team in the National Association bas had ~ scouts and matl3 sleuths (IIawkshaWJ Sherlock Holmes etc ) looking into St Louis l winning of their third national championship This 18 8epeclally true of the Illinois team In foot it 18 rumored that the Univora1ty of Illinois bas developed a nell curriculum in Super Sleuthing The Senate Committee on Crime was also called in

Was Illinois drugged Were the otUclals paid off Ifas the basketball Sambling scandal already 1Ilpregnated vb3elchair basketball These and JJIpoundlllY other theories have been considered and investigated tor sometime Two University of Illinois men have been forced to retire from sheer exhaustion from the investigation Even Senator Kefauver required 8 vacnt1on Rmrever J Andy Z1ka one of the St Louis greats tl8de a slip during the 8UDIDBr and gave the hole business awe

In January of 1952 the St Louis Rams ordered fifty reams of stationery Instead of having National Wheelchair Basketball Association under their name the printer used the following letterhead

ROLLm IWLS INC HATION~ wmELCHAIR BASKETBALL CBAMPIOllS

St Louis Mo

By tournament time they had only used one ream Even the prosperous Rams could not atford to loee the investJTent in the other forty-nine reams Hence J they fought like demons to protect their investnent and Win the 4th National Tournament Ths stationery is still good

Each detective on this job received a piece of St Louis stationery as a momento ot his efforts

ST LOUIS SEm A TORRID PACE

The St Louis Rolling Rams have set a precedent (and a record) that 1s goinG to be hard to egual and almost impossible to beat W1th the high cal ibre of play end competition being exhibited by all teams That recordJ ot course is winDing the Hationa Championship throe times in succession That 1s a reeJ goal to shoot for This vriter doos not think it W1ll ever be done again The keen competition that was exhibited in last year I s tourDQblnt and throughout the season in both conferences is this writers point ot evaluation In the West J St Louis bounced back to detent 0 team that had beaten them twice durinG the season in the National Championship This is good compet ition This is athletics -R ports This 1s life

Congratulations to the St Louis RmDB J the team to beat

EXPLAIIATIOII - APOLOGY - REPRIMAlID

Statistics (Box Score) for the New Jersey-Hannibal game are incomplete because there vere not enough table officials (statisticians ) at the beginning of tbe game This was discovered at the end of the let quarter and 1mmed1ately correcshyted The Jncompleteness of the stathtics made them invalld for permanent reshycordingmiddot 8oweYer the figures obtained for the last 3 quarters did not indicate that any records would have been altered

Statistics for the Kansas City-Brooklyn game are not herein fully recorded beshycause the aponsora official score book the associations ofticial score book and the ofticialstatisticians report vere all in complete disagreement Part of this is the fault of the officials of the tourney scorers statisticians etc And part the fault of coaches and players for not properly identifying themselves by action in accordance with rules and in uniform Once again the figures of all three did not indicate any significant records

An explanation from those who are publishing the bulletin and those wbo sponsored the tOurnament

An apology from those who were in any way respona1ble or who could in any way have avoided these errors

A reprimand to officers officials coaches and players tbat sucb a mistake should occur in the hopes that it w111 not occur again

TIlE BROOKLYN WHmLAWATIl laat year s Eas tern Chompions are intact and possess the same spirit and fight that should ronk them the team to beat in the East

THE BRONX ROLLERS have a tev veterans returning but at this point of the season look as though they w111 need an additional aBsson before they come into their own But they may be the fly in one of thB league leader e soup

TB HALLORAN WIZZ KIDS a new member of the Eeotern Association but ono of the oldest wheelchair basketball te8IDfO bas reorganized Incl uded amons their playerl is Jack Gberhardt wheel chair All-America 1951 and tormer member of the New Jersey Wheelers This te8JII 18 rated the dark borse of the East and Eastern teema are not taking them lightly

THE JERSEy WHEELERS now composed of quite 11 number of amputees are not conshysidered in the rlmDng for top honors by ofticials of the Enstern Association The Wheelers have beet mown to surprise JII8DY teams so we are waiting tor the resulte of the first few games

THIl QUEENS CHhRIOIIlERS composed of civilian polio disabled are a most enthusimiddot astic team but it is felt lack the experience leguired to make their mark dur1llg the current season

TEE Namp1 YCIRIC SPOKESMEN l ost none of last years pl ayers and hove gained the experience to make a definite bid for Eeatern laurels

First of the new teams is the Sioux City team already in operation

Correspondence has been initiated by T1m Nusent on e lead given him by the Kansas City team with a teem in the process at formotion in Cleveland Ohio Not too much is known about this development at present

By tournament time they had only used one ream Even the prosperous Rams could not atford to loee the investJTent in the other forty-nine reams Hence J they fought like demons to protect their investnent and Win the 4th National Tournament Ths stationery is still good

Each detective on this job received a piece of St Louis stationery as a momento ot his efforts

EXPLAIIATIOII - APOLOGY - REPRIMAlID

Statistics (Box Score) for the New Jersey-Hannibal game are incomplete because there vere not enough table officials (statisticians ) at the beginning of tbe game This was discovered at the end of the let quarter and 1mmed1ately correcshyted The Jncompleteness of the stathtics made them invalld for permanent reshycordingmiddot 8oweYer the figures obtained for the last 3 quarters did not indicate that any records would have been altered

Statistics for the Kansas City-Brooklyn game are not herein fully recorded beshycause the aponsora official score book the associations ofticial score book and the ofticialstatisticians report vere all in complete disagreement Part of this is the fault of the officials of the tourney scorers statisticians etc And part the fault of coaches and players for not properly identifying themselves by action in accordance with rules and in uniform Once again the figures of all three did not indicate any significant records

An explanation from those who are publishing the bulletin and those wbo sponsored the tOurnament

An apology from those who were in any way respona1ble or who could in any way have avoided these errors

A reprimand to officers officials coaches and players tbat sucb a mistake should occur in the hopes that it w111 not occur again

THE BRONX ROLLERS have a tev veterans returning but at this point of the season look as though they w111 need an additional aBsson before they come into their own But they may be the fly in one of thB league leader e soup

TB HALLORAN WIZZ KIDS a new member of the Eeotern Association but ono of the oldest wheelchair basketball te8IDfO bas reorganized Incl uded amons their playerl is Jack Gberhardt wheel chair All-America 1951 and tormer member of the New Jersey Wheelers This te8JII 18 rated the dark borse of the East and Eastern teema are not taking them lightly

THE JERSEy WHEELERS now composed of quite 11 number of amputees are not conshysidered in the rlmDng for top honors by ofticials of the Enstern Association The Wheelers have beet mown to surprise JII8DY teams so we are waiting tor the resulte of the first few games

THIl QUEENS CHhRIOIIlERS composed of civilian polio disabled are a most enthusimiddot astic team but it is felt lack the experience leguired to make their mark dur1llg the current season

TEE Namp1 YCIRIC SPOKESMEN l ost none of last years pl ayers and hove gained the experience to make a definite bid for Eeatern laurels

Each team in the National Association bas had ~ scouts and matl3 sleuths (IIawkshaWJ Sherlock Holmes etc ) looking into St Louis l winning of their third national championship This 18 8epeclally true of the Illinois team In foot it 18 rumored that the Univora1ty of Illinois bas developed a nell curriculum in Super Sleuthing The Senate Committee on Crime was also called in

Was Illinois drugged Were the otUclals paid off Ifas the basketball Sambling scandal already 1Ilpregnated vb3elchair basketball These and JJIpoundlllY other theories have been considered and investigated tor sometime Two University of Illinois men have been forced to retire from sheer exhaustion from the investigation Even Senator Kefauver required 8 vacnt1on Rmrever J Andy Z1ka one of the St Louis greats tl8de a slip during the 8UDIDBr and gave the hole business awe

In January of 1952 the St Louis Rams ordered fifty reams of stationery Instead of having National Wheelchair Basketball Association under their name the printer used the following letterhead

St Louis Mo

By tournament time they had only used one ream Even the prosperous Rams could not atford to loee the investJTent in the other forty-nine reams Hence J they fought like demons to protect their investnent and Win the 4th National Tournament Ths stationery is still good

Each detective on this job received a piece of St Louis stationery as a momento ot his efforts

ST LOUIS SEm A TORRID PACE

The St Louis Rolling Rams have set a precedent (and a record) that 1s goinG to be hard to egual and almost impossible to beat W1th the high cal ibre of play end competition being exhibited by all teams That recordJ ot course is winDing the Hationa Championship throe times in succession That 1s a reeJ goal to shoot for This vriter doos not think it W1ll ever be done again The keen competition that was exhibited in last year I s tourDQblnt and throughout the season in both conferences is this writers point ot evaluation In the West J St Louis bounced back to detent 0 team that had beaten them twice durinG the season in the National Championship This is good compet ition This is athletics -R ports This 1s life

EXPLAIIATIOII - APOLOGY - REPRIMAlID

Statistics (Box Score) for the New Jersey-Hannibal game are incomplete because there vere not enough table officials (statisticians ) at the beginning of tbe game This was discovered at the end of the let quarter and 1mmed1ately correcshyted The Jncompleteness of the stathtics made them invalld for permanent reshycordingmiddot 8oweYer the figures obtained for the last 3 quarters did not indicate that any records would have been altered

Statistics for the Kansas City-Brooklyn game are not herein fully recorded beshycause the aponsora official score book the associations ofticial score book and the ofticialstatisticians report vere all in complete disagreement Part of this is the fault of the officials of the tourney scorers statisticians etc And part the fault of coaches and players for not properly identifying themselves by action in accordance with rules and in uniform Once again the figures of all three did not indicate any significant records

An explanation from those who are publishing the bulletin and those wbo sponsored the tOurnament

An apology from those who were in any way respona1ble or who could in any way have avoided these errors

A reprimand to officers officials coaches and players tbat sucb a mistake should occur in the hopes that it w111 not occur again

THIl QUEENS CHhRIOIIlERS composed of civilian polio disabled are a most enthusimiddot astic team but it is felt lack the experience leguired to make their mark dur1llg the current season

HANNIBAL (Mo) ROCKETS are revamping tbeir team and have added one or tvo most promising players They are a never say die team and this could be tbeir year No one 1s overlooking the Rockets

ILLINOIS GIZZ KIDS have lost three of tbeir first five from last season and four ot their first eight Three ot these via graduation Although they bave many new boys coming up ooly four men on the squad have as much 8S one eea80ns experience bebind tbem Therefore J they are an unknown quantity and oot ranked too high

SIOUX CITY (IltJrlA) WHEELERS are a new team organized by I1l1nois Gin Kid alumnus Bill Fite They definitely will not have the experience or the ~erooanel ~o mampke their mark this season but are working toward the 1953-54 season

First of the new teams is the Sioux City team already in operation

Correspondence has been initiated by T1m Nusent on e lead given him by the Kansas City team with a teem in the process at formotion in Cleveland Ohio Not too much is known about this development at present

Senate Committee Detectives Pry into St Louis third National Championship

Each team in the National Association bas had ~ scouts and matl3 sleuths (IIawkshaWJ Sherlock Holmes etc ) looking into St Louis l winning of their third national championship This 18 8epeclally true of the Illinois team In foot it 18 rumored that the Univora1ty of Illinois bas developed a nell curriculum in Super Sleuthing The Senate Committee on Crime was also called in

Was Illinois drugged Were the otUclals paid off Ifas the basketball Sambling scandal already 1Ilpregnated vb3elchair basketball These and JJIpoundlllY other theories have been considered and investigated tor sometime Two University of Illinois men have been forced to retire from sheer exhaustion from the investigation Even Senator Kefauver required 8 vacnt1on Rmrever J Andy Z1ka one of the St Louis greats tl8de a slip during the 8UDIDBr and gave the hole business awe

In January of 1952 the St Louis Rams ordered fifty reams of stationery Instead of having National Wheelchair Basketball Association under their name the printer used the following letterhead

ROLLm IWLS INC HATION~ wmELCHAIR BASKETBALL CBAMPIOllS

St Louis Mo

By tournament time they had only used one ream Even the prosperous Rams could not atford to loee the investJTent in the other forty-nine reams Hence J they fought like demons to protect their investnent and Win the 4th National Tournament Ths stationery is still good

Each detective on this job received a piece of St Louis stationery as a momento ot his efforts

ST LOUIS SEm A TORRID PACE

The St Louis Rolling Rams have set a precedent (and a record) that 1s goinG to be hard to egual and almost impossible to beat W1th the high cal ibre of play end competition being exhibited by all teams That recordJ ot course is winDing the Hationa Championship throe times in succession That 1s a reeJ goal to shoot for This vriter doos not think it W1ll ever be done again The keen competition that was exhibited in last year I s tourDQblnt and throughout the season in both conferences is this writers point ot evaluation In the West J St Louis bounced back to detent 0 team that had beaten them twice durinG the season in the National Championship This is good compet ition This is athletics -R ports This 1s life

Congratulations to the St Louis RmDB J the team to beat

EXPLAIIATIOII - APOLOGY - REPRIMAlID

Statistics (Box Score) for the New Jersey-Hannibal game are incomplete because there vere not enough table officials (statisticians ) at the beginning of tbe game This was discovered at the end of the let quarter and 1mmed1ately correcshyted The Jncompleteness of the stathtics made them invalld for permanent reshycordingmiddot 8oweYer the figures obtained for the last 3 quarters did not indicate that any records would have been altered

Statistics for the Kansas City-Brooklyn game are not herein fully recorded beshycause the aponsora official score book the associations ofticial score book and the ofticialstatisticians report vere all in complete disagreement Part of this is the fault of the officials of the tourney scorers statisticians etc And part the fault of coaches and players for not properly identifying themselves by action in accordance with rules and in uniform Once again the figures of all three did not indicate any significant records

An explanation from those who are publishing the bulletin and those wbo sponsored the tOurnament

An apology from those who were in any way respona1ble or who could in any way have avoided these errors

A reprimand to officers officials coaches and players tbat sucb a mistake should occur in the hopes that it w111 not occur again

HANNIBAL (Mo) ROCKETS are revamping tbeir team and have added one or tvo most promising players They are a never say die team and this could be tbeir year No one 1s overlooking the Rockets

ILLINOIS GIZZ KIDS have lost three of tbeir first five from last season and four ot their first eight Three ot these via graduation Although they bave many new boys coming up ooly four men on the squad have as much 8S one eea80ns experience bebind tbem Therefore J they are an unknown quantity and oot ranked too high

SIOUX CITY (IltJrlA) WHEELERS are a new team organized by I1l1nois Gin Kid alumnus Bill Fite They definitely will not have the experience or the ~erooanel ~o mampke their mark this season but are working toward the 1953-54 season

First of the new teams is the Sioux City team already in operation

Correspondence has been initiated by T1m Nusent on e lead given him by the Kansas City team with a teem in the process at formotion in Cleveland Ohio Not too much is known about this development at present

Ben Lipton reports that a teBJ1 is in the process of being organized at the Institute for the Crippled and D1aab1ed in Belt York City

There are efforts to organize teems in Milwaukee Wisconsin and Quincy Illinoie

A teem at amputees 1s functioning in Detroit Michigan but DO favorable contact has been established - - - - It is hoped that the California Flying Wheels who play Association teams each year w111 declare its active membership in the Association

CANADA AND EllaquolLAND HAVE BEEN BEARD rnalt

The Eastern Association has received a request tor competition tlom a paraplegic team in Vancover Br1t1ah Columbia Here 18 b6ptng this can be accomplished at least once or twice during the eeaeon Teams in Great Britain have also expressed their interest in international competition witb American teams Porhnpamp we can have our own Junior Olympics in 1956

Senate Committee Detectives Pry into St Louis third National Championship

Each team in the National Association bas had ~ scouts and matl3 sleuths (IIawkshaWJ Sherlock Holmes etc ) looking into St Louis l winning of their third national championship This 18 8epeclally true of the Illinois team In foot it 18 rumored that the Univora1ty of Illinois bas developed a nell curriculum in Super Sleuthing The Senate Committee on Crime was also called in

Was Illinois drugged Were the otUclals paid off Ifas the basketball Sambling scandal already 1Ilpregnated vb3elchair basketball These and JJIpoundlllY other theories have been considered and investigated tor sometime Two University of Illinois men have been forced to retire from sheer exhaustion from the investigation Even Senator Kefauver required 8 vacnt1on Rmrever J Andy Z1ka one of the St Louis greats tl8de a slip during the 8UDIDBr and gave the hole business awe

In January of 1952 the St Louis Rams ordered fifty reams of stationery Instead of having National Wheelchair Basketball Association under their name the printer used the following letterhead

ROLLm IWLS INC HATION~ wmELCHAIR BASKETBALL CBAMPIOllS

St Louis Mo

By tournament time they had only used one ream Even the prosperous Rams could not atford to loee the investJTent in the other forty-nine reams Hence J they fought like demons to protect their investnent and Win the 4th National Tournament Ths stationery is still good

Each detective on this job received a piece of St Louis stationery as a momento ot his efforts

ST LOUIS SEm A TORRID PACE

The St Louis Rolling Rams have set a precedent (and a record) that 1s goinG to be hard to egual and almost impossible to beat W1th the high cal ibre of play end competition being exhibited by all teams That recordJ ot course is winDing the Hationa Championship throe times in succession That 1s a reeJ goal to shoot for This vriter doos not think it W1ll ever be done again The keen competition that was exhibited in last year I s tourDQblnt and throughout the season in both conferences is this writers point ot evaluation In the West J St Louis bounced back to detent 0 team that had beaten them twice durinG the season in the National Championship This is good compet ition This is athletics -R ports This 1s life

Statistics for the Kansas City-Brooklyn game are not herein fully recorded beshycause the aponsora official score book the associations ofticial score book and the ofticialstatisticians report vere all in complete disagreement Part of this is the fault of the officials of the tourney scorers statisticians etc And part the fault of coaches and players for not properly identifying themselves by action in accordance with rules and in uniform Once again the figures of all three did not indicate any significant records

An explanation from those who are publishing the bulletin and those wbo sponsored the tOurnament

An apology from those who were in any way respona1ble or who could in any way have avoided these errors

A reprimand to officers officials coaches and players tbat sucb a mistake should occur in the hopes that it w111 not occur again

Each team in the National Association bas had ~ scouts and matl3 sleuths (IIawkshaWJ Sherlock Holmes etc ) looking into St Louis l winning of their third national championship This 18 8epeclally true of the Illinois team In foot it 18 rumored that the Univora1ty of Illinois bas developed a nell curriculum in Super Sleuthing The Senate Committee on Crime was also called in

Was Illinois drugged Were the otUclals paid off Ifas the basketball Sambling scandal already 1Ilpregnated vb3elchair basketball These and JJIpoundlllY other theories have been considered and investigated tor sometime Two University of Illinois men have been forced to retire from sheer exhaustion from the investigation Even Senator Kefauver required 8 vacnt1on Rmrever J Andy Z1ka one of the St Louis greats tl8de a slip during the 8UDIDBr and gave the hole business awe

In January of 1952 the St Louis Rams ordered fifty reams of stationery Instead of having National Wheelchair Basketball Association under their name the printer used the following letterhead

ROLLm IWLS INC HATION~ wmELCHAIR BASKETBALL CBAMPIOllS

St Louis Mo

By tournament time they had only used one ream Even the prosperous Rams could not atford to loee the investJTent in the other forty-nine reams Hence J they fought like demons to protect their investnent and Win the 4th National Tournament Ths stationery is still good

Each detective on this job received a piece of St Louis stationery as a momento ot his efforts

ST LOUIS SEm A TORRID PACE

The St Louis Rolling Rams have set a precedent (and a record) that 1s goinG to be hard to egual and almost impossible to beat W1th the high cal ibre of play end competition being exhibited by all teams That recordJ ot course is winDing the Hationa Championship throe times in succession That 1s a reeJ goal to shoot for This vriter doos not think it W1ll ever be done again The keen competition that was exhibited in last year I s tourDQblnt and throughout the season in both conferences is this writers point ot evaluation In the West J St Louis bounced back to detent 0 team that had beaten them twice durinG the season in the National Championship This is good compet ition This is athletics -R ports This 1s life

EXPLAIIATIOII - APOLOGY - REPRIMAlID

Statistics (Box Score) for the New Jersey-Hannibal game are incomplete because there vere not enough table officials (statisticians ) at the beginning of tbe game This was discovered at the end of the let quarter and 1mmed1ately correcshyted The Jncompleteness of the stathtics made them invalld for permanent reshycordingmiddot 8oweYer the figures obtained for the last 3 quarters did not indicate that any records would have been altered

Statistics for the Kansas City-Brooklyn game are not herein fully recorded beshycause the aponsora official score book the associations ofticial score book and the ofticialstatisticians report vere all in complete disagreement Part of this is the fault of the officials of the tourney scorers statisticians etc And part the fault of coaches and players for not properly identifying themselves by action in accordance with rules and in uniform Once again the figures of all three did not indicate any significant records

An explanation from those who are publishing the bulletin and those wbo sponsored the tOurnament

An apology from those who were in any way respona1ble or who could in any way have avoided these errors

A reprimand to officers officials coaches and players tbat sucb a mistake should occur in the hopes that it w111 not occur again

EXPLAIIATIOII - APOLOGY - REPRIMAlID

Statistics (Box Score) for the New Jersey-Hannibal game are incomplete because there vere not enough table officials (statisticians ) at the beginning of tbe game This was discovered at the end of the let quarter and 1mmed1ately correcshyted The Jncompleteness of the stathtics made them invalld for permanent reshycordingmiddot 8oweYer the figures obtained for the last 3 quarters did not indicate that any records would have been altered

Statistics for the Kansas City-Brooklyn game are not herein fully recorded beshycause the aponsora official score book the associations ofticial score book and the ofticialstatisticians report vere all in complete disagreement Part of this is the fault of the officials of the tourney scorers statisticians etc And part the fault of coaches and players for not properly identifying themselves by action in accordance with rules and in uniform Once again the figures of all three did not indicate any significant records

An explanation from those who are publishing the bulletin and those wbo sponsored the tOurnament

An apology from those who were in any way respona1ble or who could in any way have avoided these errors

A reprimand to officers officials coaches and players tbat sucb a mistake should occur in the hopes that it w111 not occur again

Statistics (Box Score) for the New Jersey-Hannibal game are incomplete because there vere not enough table officials (statisticians ) at the beginning of tbe game This was discovered at the end of the let quarter and 1mmed1ately correcshyted The Jncompleteness of the stathtics made them invalld for permanent reshycordingmiddot 8oweYer the figures obtained for the last 3 quarters did not indicate that any records would have been altered

Statistics for the Kansas City-Brooklyn game are not herein fully recorded beshycause the aponsora official score book the associations ofticial score book and the ofticialstatisticians report vere all in complete disagreement Part of this is the fault of the officials of the tourney scorers statisticians etc And part the fault of coaches and players for not properly identifying themselves by action in accordance with rules and in uniform Once again the figures of all three did not indicate any significant records

An explanation from those who are publishing the bulletin and those wbo sponsored the tOurnament

An apology from those who were in any way respona1ble or who could in any way have avoided these errors

EXPLAIIATIOII - APOLOGY - REPRIMAlID

Statistics (Box Score) for the New Jersey-Hannibal game are incomplete because there vere not enough table officials (statisticians ) at the beginning of tbe game This was discovered at the end of the let quarter and 1mmed1ately correcshyted The Jncompleteness of the stathtics made them invalld for permanent reshycordingmiddot 8oweYer the figures obtained for the last 3 quarters did not indicate that any records would have been altered

Statistics for the Kansas City-Brooklyn game are not herein fully recorded beshycause the aponsora official score book the associations ofticial score book and the ofticialstatisticians report vere all in complete disagreement Part of this is the fault of the officials of the tourney scorers statisticians etc And part the fault of coaches and players for not properly identifying themselves by action in accordance with rules and in uniform Once again the figures of all three did not indicate any significant records

An explanation from those who are publishing the bulletin and those wbo sponsored the tOurnament

An apology from those who were in any way respona1ble or who could in any way have avoided these errors

A reprimand to officers officials coaches and players tbat sucb a mistake should occur in the hopes that it w111 not occur again

EXPLAIIATIOII - APOLOGY - REPRIMAlID

Statistics (Box Score) for the New Jersey-Hannibal game are incomplete because there vere not enough table officials (statisticians ) at the beginning of tbe game This was discovered at the end of the let quarter and 1mmed1ately correcshyted The Jncompleteness of the stathtics made them invalld for permanent reshycordingmiddot 8oweYer the figures obtained for the last 3 quarters did not indicate that any records would have been altered

Statistics for the Kansas City-Brooklyn game are not herein fully recorded beshycause the aponsora official score book the associations ofticial score book and the ofticialstatisticians report vere all in complete disagreement Part of this is the fault of the officials of the tourney scorers statisticians etc And part the fault of coaches and players for not properly identifying themselves by action in accordance with rules and in uniform Once again the figures of all three did not indicate any significant records

An explanation from those who are publishing the bulletin and those wbo sponsored the tOurnament

An apology from those who were in any way respona1ble or who could in any way have avoided these errors

A reprimand to officers officials coaches and players tbat sucb a mistake should occur in the hopes that it w111 not occur again

EXPLAIIATIOII - APOLOGY - REPRIMAlID

Statistics (Box Score) for the New Jersey-Hannibal game are incomplete because there vere not enough table officials (statisticians ) at the beginning of tbe game This was discovered at the end of the let quarter and 1mmed1ately correcshyted The Jncompleteness of the stathtics made them invalld for permanent reshycordingmiddot 8oweYer the figures obtained for the last 3 quarters did not indicate that any records would have been altered

Statistics for the Kansas City-Brooklyn game are not herein fully recorded beshycause the aponsora official score book the associations ofticial score book and the ofticialstatisticians report vere all in complete disagreement Part of this is the fault of the officials of the tourney scorers statisticians etc And part the fault of coaches and players for not properly identifying themselves by action in accordance with rules and in uniform Once again the figures of all three did not indicate any significant records

An explanation from those who are publishing the bulletin and those wbo sponsored the tOurnament

An apology from those who were in any way respona1ble or who could in any way have avoided these errors

A reprimand to officers officials coaches and players tbat sucb a mistake should occur in the hopes that it w111 not occur again
