Six game high school event at Assembly Hall in January

A National Collegiate Athletic Association men's basketball regulation accepted in April prohibiting "nonscholastic events" on campuses has resulted in mystification among the event operators, colleges and high schools. It may be caused the termination of several high school basketball events for few days before they were to take place. The cancellations have cost high schools as much as 2,000 dollars according to athletic directors.

Recently Big Rivals Weekend at Hinkle Fieldhouse planned as a six-game high school event well thought out by Ray Compton of Compton Strategies. Compton became attentive of the problem Thursday night when an Indiana University compliance officer called him and after a discussion with the National Collegiate Athletic Association to say it looked unlikely that his company would be capable to host a six-game high school event at Assembly Hall in January.
