PAGESIX . FORWARD PASS IS GRIDIRON'S' GREAT THRILL Football’s Best est Weapon and Makes Game More Popular, Says Ernie Nevers BY All-Amer (Copyright, In the last become a pron footbull. D there has b but little to dist yuish betw the caliber of leading te s of the east and west. When I speak of the west, very! naturally | have reference to the Pacific coast elevens, California, Stanford, Washington, Southern Cali fornia and the rest of the teams com prising the coast conference. Since the colleges of the Pacific coast have made such rapid strides in the last few years I often am asked what style of play has made such recognition possible. As I have said before, I do not be- lieve that the it elevens confine themselves to ticular style of play that differs from football as played in the colleges of the various other sections of our country. Likes to Mix Plays Up T would say the coast eleven play a diversified game. I know that is very true of Stanford as coached by Glenn Warner. Incidentally, I might add that he believes in mixing the plays up. Last fall, in our first game of the year, he gave instructions that short passes should be the chief offensive weapon. In our second game we used the plunging plays almost entirely. In our third contest we resorted to kicking tactics. In the first three periods of that game it was not at all uncommon for us to kick on the first down. In this connection, I would like to say that I am not in favor of any legislation tending to curtail the use of the forward pass. Makes Game Popular The forward pass has been the one greatest factor in making football so popular. I am convinced that any rule formulated to curb the pass is a bad thing for the game. Football thrives on uncertainty a d | y no one thing has done more to such a condition than the pass. When I make this statement I have in mind a defeat of ford suffered against Notre Dame in which inter ate Oulny of our team. Without in y trying to dis Parage the victory of Coach Knute Rockne’s great Notre Dame team, | feel that eleven. Stanford was a better Some Statistics I still have some interesting statis- ties of that game well in mind. they are: Stanford guined scrimmage to 95 And while the victors made only five first downs, their margin at the finish left nothing to be questioned. Two intercepted forward passes fol- ed by runs of 70 and 80 yards, also another long run after recovering a fumbled point, gave Notre Dame the winning margin. The breaks were the deciding factors. 1 am strong for the forward pass. 1 feet the rule-makers are making a big mistake any time they seek to curb its use. 395 yards from Ha By NEA Service Cambridge, Mass., Oct. 16—Har- football doldrums for brighter A new rd, in the the last few years, sees things ahead this seaso coach, a new staff of tant some promising material lead Crimson rooters to anticipate the best camp ign their school has had in a football way for quite a span.

A big fellow, he’s fast, knows the game and on the attack takes care of his oppo- nent in fitting fashion. Coady presents a tough obstacle on the defense.

Standard rail- and industrial issues, as well as more speculative shares, were nin the market in large volume] with price declines in the most active stocks ranging from five to an ex- treme of more than 13 points, The aggressiveness which marked the renewal of the bear attack was illustrated by the usually sharp break’ of five points in United States Steel, which carried it to the lowest price on the current movement around: 138%. Similar declines were record- ed by Baldwin, Pullman, Hudson Mo- tors, Woolworth and Atluntic Coast Line, while commercial solvents “B,” Dupont and U. Cast Iron Pipe sold eight to 18'4 points lower in the early afternoon. As the selling movement gained headway, numerous stop loss orders were uncovered and there were indi- cations of considerable distress sell- ing. Liquidation of the motors fol- lowed the announcement of another price reduction by Hudson with this stock dropping to a new low for the year along with Mack Trucks, Moon and Federal Motor trucks. Selling also was influenced by signs of de- creasing business reflected in the cur- tailment of steel building by the large! manufacturers. | : Late Flattening | Out of Buy-| X° Trading expanded on the decline, with sales running at a rate which promised a turn over well above 2,000,000 sh | strong on al loads mixed year- weighty fed steers un- a s in light supply in killing classe ‘al bulk good Hogs 7, and bacon opening sales butcher hogs fully steady to| mostly 12.75@) most | bids on packing sows 10.00@ | pigs sharply lo: Thursday 31; weight 10 3,000; carly sules fat lan sheep steady. ~(U, 8.
