One of the games of last season being played all over again from > to time is the Army-Stanford contest at New York, with particu- hasis on two plays by Keener Cagle. The Louisiana rice planter 5 chased far back towasd-his own goal as he started what ap- red to be end runs and each time he cut loose long forward passes s waiting far down the field. e W The debate continues as to whether these plays started as they| ended. The experts were divided at the time, some taking the posi- tion that the fleet Cagle was thwarted in his efforts to get outside the ends and passed in a desperate effort to avoid heavy loss. The “noes however, persisted and Coach “Biff” Jones has had numerous en- quirits directed to him as to the plays. 'y y were not planned,” said Captain Jones. On all Cagle’s runs, the ends went down and if he could not get away, he passed. That was the case in the Stanford game. I do not deserve any credit for strategy in connection with these passes.” . GOOD AT PSYCHOLOGY OR WHAT HAVE YOU? Gene McCann, scout for the New York Yankees and former minor league manager, had a reputation as a psychologist when he was di- recting minor league teams. A college player on one of his teams said to him once after some astute baseball figuring by Gene, “You are a real master of psychology.” The manager then had his joke. ‘Without the semblance of a smile he asked the player, “What is psy- chology?” A few days later with a three run lead in the ninth, two of the opposition players got on the bases and Gene sent the collegian who had dubbed him a psychologist to the bull pen to warm up. He had thrown a few bells when the batsman sent a line drive whistling at the pitcher, the ball breaking a finger and filling the bases. The college boy came in, fairly well warmed up instead of cold as he would have been had not McCann sent him out before the damage was done, and disposed of the side without any scoring. When he reached the bench he answered his manager’s question of previous date. “That is psychology,” he said. RUTH, WITH |ONE LEAGUE .
