COOL HEAD KEY TO SUCCESS Earl Sprackling, All-American Quar- ter Back Last Year, Tells of Many Football Faults. “Keep a cool head,” is one of the ' leading tips that Earl Sprackling, All- | American quarter back last year, glves to aspiring football players. Sprackling recently handed out a few bits of advice which will no doubt prove of value to schoolboys. He cited several instances of where play- | ers had forgotten even the stmplest things about football in the excite- ment of a game because of the fact | that they got rattled. Coolness, he ! 8ald, was one of the main requisites | for a player running a team. Sprackling laid some stress on the need of good kickers this year. “There are many kinds of kicks in tootball and as many ways to make them,” says the famous gridiron star. “The most common is the long, high punt. | McKay, Brown’s captain last year, | was the best man 1 ever saw at this style. He held the ball at arm’s length and on a level with his head, the | ball pointing in at an angle of thirty | degrees. He brought his leg up | straight to the knee until his foot ' turned Inward at the same angle as the ball. He caught the ball on the | side, giving it the spiral twist. His kick continued through until his foot | was over his head. “In the east the long, low punt 1s gaining favor. The ball travels about | ten yards high, and is hard to handle. | Pennsylvania’s quarter back had this kick down fine last year. His kicks would travel through the air for twenty yards, hit the ground, then roll forty to fifty yards more. “The drop kick and place kick will be more important this year, for there is a lack of scoring plays within the twenty-yard line. A team must have a man who can make fleld goals. The | place kick gives more distance, but is less accurate than the drop kick, be- cause the men handle the ball in the former. “A drop kick is usually made by dropping the ball with a slight tilt | backward.” | Handling the real comn and approv- ing of checks 1s better than taking throws, according to Jake Stahl. Keckle Moll tried hard to deserve all those nice things said about him by the Wisconsin athletic bulletin. Swimmers In the A. A. F. soon will begin work. The turners will be strong in the water sport this year. To prevent old-time lovers of foot- ball from feeling lonesome, the motor- cycle riders are adding to the fall In- Juries. = | Former Wisconsin Player, Who Was Accused of Having a “Yellow Streak,” but Has More Than Made Good at Yale by His Brilliant Playing This Year. MADISON EVOLVES NEW IDEA Compulsory Football Is Inaugurated at University of Wisconsin for the Freshmen. Eighty University of Wisconsin treshmen caromed around the lower campus at Madison the other day, kicking footballs and tackling the dummies and taking evident enjoy- ment in every move. It was the first | trial of compulsory football there or at any other college or university. The idea originated with Dr. W. E. Mean- well -of the physical training depart- ment. The freshmen were first put through a calisthenic drill and were ‘then lined up and allowed to punt back and forth. Nine footballs were used and the supply was short at that. “They seem to find the greatest en- Joyment in kicking the ball,” said Dr. Meanwell. “Make them kick indaors and you'll find them doing it in a mechanical fashion lacking interest of purpose. Its a psychological fact that games and sports and not calisthenics are the real developmental forces for the body and bear out my theory that games should be conducted out of doors as many days in the year as the weather permits.” oporiing (OsIp. Who will be next year’s find? Life is just one fight after another for ring fans. Since girls have taken up football, more boys will wish to play. Be- tween halves: “How many lumps, please?” Again baseball dopesters were wrong. They had Eddie Collins as captain of the Athletics and it ‘was Danny Murphy all ‘the time. Murphy should make a good captain. - He has been in the game long enough. Australia, England and France con- stitute the world, according to Tom Jones, Ad Wolgast’s manager. At that rate, Scotland, Ireland, Germany, Rus- sla and many other countries have disappeared. ILLIi\IOIS STAR BREAKS SHOULDER BLADE Otto Seiler, Whose Football Career Is Ended. Otto Seller's football career ended recently when the Illinois star, falling on the ball, broke his right shoul- der blade. This is his final year of football, as he is a senior in the uni- versity. Seiler went down the field on an on-side kick by Woolston and fell upon the ball in such a manner as to fracture his right shoulder blade. Seller cam§ into genesal notice last season when his drop kicks won the Chicago, Indiana and Syracuse games. He was generally allotted an all-west- ern berth by the critics. He was un- ‘able to repeat in the Chicago this year, a wet fleld and a weak line handicapping him. Head Coach Hall placed great confidence in his foot. however, and he was accounted a val- uable asset for the rest of the sched: ule. Seiler's most remarkable drop kick was at Bloomington, Ind., last fall, when he lifted a goal on a EOgEY fleld on the 45-yard line from a most difficult angle. Conley and Gilmore Separate. Harry Gilmore Jr. of Chicago and: Frankie Conley, the Kenosha scrap- per, have severed relations, and the latter now declares that he will han- dle his own affairs.

Snake's Method of Attack. ¢ No snake is able to jump or spring from a coil in order to strike, as often It can only strike when it resembles the letter S and is lying flat on the ground. It can then only reach the distance supplled by stretching the body out straight. ‘The two curves in the figure S supply this distance, which is about half the length of the body. No snake jumps through the air to its victim or springs clear from the ground, rising upon its tail. Such stories and pictures are all false. Neither do they coil like a rope and strike from that position. They may coil partially, but the part of the ‘body that does the striking is ever and only that part which makes the figure S and lies flat on the ground; hence no serpent can strike when stretched out its full length. Lamb and His Snuffbox. “One summer’s evening,” writes Hone, “I was walking on Hampstead heath with Charles Lamb, and we had talked ourselves Into a philosophic con- tempt of our slavery to the habit of snuff taking, and with the firm resolu- tion of hever again-taking a single plnch we thréw our stuffboxes away from the hill on which we stood far among the furze and brambles below and went home in triumph. I began to be very miserable; was wretched all night. In the morning I was walking on the same hill. I saw Charles Lamb below, searching among the bushes. He looked up, laughing, and sald: ‘What! You are come to look for your snuffbox too? ‘Oh, no, said I, taking a pinch out of a paper in my waistcoat pocket; ‘I went for a halfpenny worth to the first shop that was open! " A Death Feigning Plant. That certain insects, birds, mammals and reptiles habitually pretend to be dead when danger threatens them is a ‘well known fact, but it is generally be- lieved that this stratagem is resorted to only by animals. In South America, however, there is a plant—a species of mimosa—which resorts to death feign- ing, evidently for the purpose of pre- the grass eating animals from eating it. In its natural state this plant has a vivid green hue, but di- rectly it is touched by a human finger or by any living animal it collapses into a tangle of apparently dead and withered stems.

Value of Deep Breathing. ‘Writing on the cultivation of phys- fcal fitness in the Herald of the Golden Age, Eustace Miles says that those who have mastered the art of deep and full breathing are thereby enabled to master thelr emotions—they can overcome pain and secure control of the mind and of the circulation of the blood. The control of the breathing prevents one from becoming hurried and flurried, and one acts lefsurely, although not lazily. Breathing can be adapted to various needs—for instance, in producing warmth or the opposite effect—or one can breathe in order to become more sensitive. In fact, the all round value of deep and full breath- ing cannot be overestimated. Of all physical practices this is the first and foremost and one that can be regu- lated without being in the least con- spicuous. If you have learned how to breathe deeply and fully people may not suspect it—they only notice that you are calm, poised and good tem- Dpered. He Had Told It.

The archi- tect had besought the devil to get help in constructing an exceedingly dan- gerous bridge structure, and his sa- tanic majesty only consented to lend ald on condition that the first creature to cross it should lose its soul. This was agreed upon, the bridge finished in due time and the devil sent to the opposite side to await his prey. The shrewd architect took good care to send a cat over before any human be- ing was allowed to cross. On learning of the bargain the cat recrossed the bridge and scratched the architect’s eyes out.
