Basketball as a minor sport at the University has become so popular that it is impossible for Coach Wachter to give instruction to all the men who ask for it. Consequently the Department of Physical Education has engaged D. E. Walter 2G.B. to act as assistant coach. During the practice of the University squad at the Hemenway Gymnasium, he will do the necessary refereeing so that Coach Wachter will have a greater opportunity to watch the different players and give them more personal instruction.

In addition, Mr. Walter will have charge of all the upperclassmen who are not on the squad and men in the Graduate Schools who wish to play basketball. When the University team begins to play games and consequently does not practice every weekday, he will organize teams in the Law School and in the Graduate School of Business Administration which will play a series of games. In addition there are approximately thirty upperclassmen in the College who have not been retained on the University squad but who wish to continue to play. Mr. Walter will form these men into teams and arrange games for them, probably with the teams in the graduate schools, the University team and the Freshman team.

Mr. Walter has had considerable experience both as a basketball player and coach. Several years ago he coached the Lebanon "Big Five," one of the leading basketball organizations of Southern New England and last winter he coached the yearlings at the University.

As all the candidates who report for Freshman hockey cannot be retained on group A of the squad, the Department of Physical Education has appointed P. E. Wilson '23, for two years the cover point on the Andover hockey team, as supervisor of group B of the squad. Later in the season, the men in this group will be divided into the dormitory teams which will compete in the interdormitory series. These men will have the use of at least one of the rinks on Soldiers Field every afternoon.
