The code of sportsmanship which has been adopted for athletics by many of the schools and colleges is: Keep the rules. Keep your temper. Keep faith with your comrade. Keep yourself fit. Keep a stout heart in defeat. Keep your pride under in victory. Keep a sound soul, a clean mind, and a healthy body. The following suggestions are offered for the consideration of those who want to co-operate in making basketball take and keep its proper place with our other American sports in the development of true sportsmanship : 1. Learn the rules of the game so that either as player or spectator you will be intelligent. 2. Accept decisions of officials without question during the game. 3. Permit no irritating or abusive remarks on the side-lines to players or officials. 4. Recognize and applaud on exhibition of fine play or good sportsmanship by a visiting team. 5. Insist on the courteous treatment of the visiting team and show its members every possible consideration. 6. Remember that the spectator as well as the athlete represents the school or community and that a good name is of more value than any victory. 7. Acquaint the community with the ideals of sportsmanship for which you stand, and impress upon the community its responsibility for self-control and fair play at all contests. 8. Insist on fair, courteous and truthful accounts of athletic contests in local papers. When in doubt, give your opponents the benefit. Never alibi. 9. Be familiar with the rules of eligibility. Support their strict enforcement. 10. Encourage full discussion of fair play and sportsmanship. Make the code and play the game. “When the great scorer comes To write against your name, He writes not that you won or lost But how you played the game.” —Adapted from National Rules Committee.

March, Nineteen Twenty-Nine 15 BASKETBALL. On December 6, Coach Askew asked for all boys to come out for basketball. About 15 boys answered this call, namely: Paul Bragg, Jack Gibson, Phillip Pyle, Joe Claybaugh, Woodrow Dillon, Roy Burcham, Charles Hackwith, Roy Bennett, Robert Benedict, Carl Hamilton, Elmer Cole, William McClellan, Glade Grubb, Carl Williams and J. A. Bowman. Most of these boys were inexperienced, but they progressed throughout the season. Coach Askew is satisfied with the year’s record. The big aim of the season was to beat Wyoming, and the boys succeeded. This was the first time in three years to defeat Wyoming and all of the lower classmen aim to follow the footsteps of the 1928-29 boys. PRINCEVILLE TOURNAMENT. Toulon lost out in the opening round of the Princeville holiday tournament, when Dunlap swamped the locals 27 to 14. LAFAYETTE AT TOULON. A fourth quarter rally enabled Toulon Township High School cagers to cop a 26 to 19 decision over the LaFayette quintet. The game was very interesting and was played in the Toulon gym. Except for the first quarter in which the visitors appeared to be unable to shake off a bad case of stage-fright, the major part of the game was fought on even terms, with the lead alternating between the two teams. The invaders proved to be a stubborn foe and until the last it appeared that the Purple might topple the Askewmen. Pyle starred for the local team. VISITATION AT TOULON. Kewanee Visitation’s “Fighting Irish” proved superior in every department of basketball and found but little trouble in winning from the Toulon Township High School quintet. The game was played on the local floor, the score being 26 to 14. As in every game played so far this season, the Scarlet and Black offered stiff competition to their opponents in the first half but faltered in the third and fourth quarters. Toulon’s scoring attack rested almost entirely on the shoulders of Dillon, lanky forward, who connected with the hoop for five field goals. He was given but little assistance from his teammates, however, even their free throw record being far from creditable. PRINCEVILLE AT PRINCEVILLE. Results of a longer training period were shown when the Princeville team easily defeated the local team on the Princeville floor by a score of 26 to 9. The Princeville quintet showed mid-season form in their flashy style of working the ball down the floor and beneath the hoop for easy shots while the Toulon five were unable to penetrate the defense of the victors
