IN 1925 GRADUATION )} By HENRY L. FARRELL |(United Presa Sports: Editor.) NEW YORK, Dec. 8—United . football coach > p@tent eastern critics said was the = greatest backfield ever assembled. * Rockne: will not wear a gloomy face. He is not only an optimist by nature but he has become more of a cheer spreader by his experience as the director of football at one of the. greatest football institutions It it had not been shown so many times in the past that tears shed for Rockne are teary wept in vain, * the mourner’s bench might be packed and shipped to South Bend. ‘There might also be the festive boards spread forthose of the east and middlewest who would want to a’sigh of relief at the termi: nation of the domination of Notre Dame on the college gridiron. Rockne, however, has known for two years that seventeen of his best players were in 1925 classes and that he would have to break out with a new team. The betting is two to one that he will send’ a team out again next fall that will be a typical Notre Dame tearm and that is about as much as can be said for any team. Rockne started a fad this year by sending his second team on the field in the first quarter and rushing the regulars in when it looked like the second-stringers weren’t able to hold thelr own.” The Notre Dame coach is @ vogue-starter. Although there was no significant strategy in a modve-to keep the regulars on the bench until they were needed vitally, several eastern coaches picked up the ‘stunt and tried it in their bic games. With Notre Dame, however, it ‘was not a move designed for decep- tion or @ piece of strategy, it was merely & means of getting some good experience for the youngsters on the squad that Rockne was pre- paring to tak: + éVentoen ‘senior fan, It was Ss the places of his| d On a recent visit to South Bend, the writer asked Rockne what he Was going to do to fill the places made vacant by wholesale grafua: tions in June. could almost give you the lineup for the opening game next fall, but we know we do most of our work in the The Rockne influence on.football has been the style-maker of the game. It hasn't been as thoroughly press agented as the Houghton sys- tem of Harvard, but it has been imitated more generally. Rockne has made all his theories perfectly simple. In the coaching schools he conducts during the summer months he is as free in the dispensation of his theories as he is in the presence of his own squad. cee The Rockne idea that {t was fool- ish to cripple or wear out a team with hard scrimmage during the active season was picked up by Yale and Princeton, among other big teams in the east this fall. eI Tad Jones had been severely criticized in the past for punishing Yale teams in scrimmage. Complaint was voiced that more star players were injured in practice than they were in actual competition. This year Jones called off all scrimmages the week before the Princeton and Harvard games and he was able to send a team out in the two biggest games on the Yale schedule that was 10 per cent in condition. Princeton the same thing before the Har- game and it was : 66 ° th} e The “write” pift Santa’s reindeer couldn't haul all of the . as Christmas presents this year.
