In former years when a man was taken once from a game it has been impossible to enter him again in that game. The new rules state that a man may be re-entered In the game after being taken out but he may not be substituted after being removed the second time. Mowe will take advantage of this new rule by using more men in a game than was possible. Another new rule which goes into effect this year states that a held-ball underneath the basket must be taken out as far as the foul pitching line before it is tossed up. This does away with the possibility of a tall man tipping the ball in from underneath the basket on the jump. The squad practiced Tuesday night in the Earlham gym.
