So when the pigskin was snapped to Kostka, the Pittsburgh secondary was drawn in.

BERWANGER, CHICAGO BACK, IS MARKED MAN OF BIG TEN Grange Says Maroon Star Is Classiest All-Around Per- former in Conference BY RED GRANGE Chicago, Oct. 26—Jay Berwanger, of Dubuque, who is making headlines Playing for the University of Chicago, is one of the greatest backs of this football generation. Man and boy, I have been play- ing and watching the gridiron game for years. Hence I am not exactly bowled over when I see @ lad tuck the pigskin under his arm and tear off a brilliant run. I know only too well how blocking and careful plan- ning by the coach have been almost entirely responsible for that flashy Journey down the field. But every so often along comes a back who has something you can't put your finger on—or your shoulder, if you happen to be a taokler, Marchy Schwartz, of Notre Dame, had it, as did Chick Harley, of Ohio State; Pug Rentner, of Northwest- ern; Harold Pogue, old-time Illini: and Beattie Feathers, of Tennessee. Cotton Warburton, of U. 8. C., has it, regardless of the fact that he has impotent blocking in tront of him this year. Those touchdown twins, Jim Carver and Duane Purvis, of Purdue, have it, and so has Pug Lund, of Minnesota. * And Berwanger has it. in an extra generous measure.

It is a combina- tion of those attributes plus natural instinct in pace-timing with which a boy is born. ‘He's Got Everything’ A back who has this it does a number of things without, consciously planning to do them. He uses his interference as a screen for jockeying with tacklers, not one defensive men. He has that faraway look, as it iy one direction, and plant his out foot and cut back obliquely without slackening his pace. He can change his gait. A change or pace is not, as some believe, run- ning slow one second and fast the next. It is running hard, at top step when you need it.” Such a back can hit the line with steel-sinewed power, but if the ex- pected hole plainly is closed, can Siide outward looking for daylight.

My point is simply that Berwanger hag @ generous measure of these gifts. That opinion is not predi- cated solely on the fact that he had a field day against a none-too-strong Indiana team.
