	Some Notes on College Basketball in Kansas, by Harold C. Evans, May 1942
		He was Forrest C. (Phog.) Allen of Independence, Mo., who had learned the game as a member of the athletic club team in his home town.
		He was sent in, but the difficulty with the Allen scheme was that a big Trojan had control of the spheroid at that moment and seemed intent on retaining it until the final gun.
		"Phog" Allen calls one of his latest systems of defense the "stratified transitional man-for-man defense with the zone principle."
