Saks And Company. All Winners. There are as many ways of picking out a good Overcoat as there are of telling a good horse. And every man has his own peculiar guide to go by. For our part wedon’t care how you judge of an Overcoat—by qual- ity—price—looks—or if you know a thing or two yourself about tailoring and survey every point — because ours are ‘‘sound”’ all through. Some of the little shops, in their vain endeavor to be heard, get to saying extrava- gantthings. Of course, you know they can’t show any such variety as we do—and you know, too, where you have to depend on somebody else to do a thing for you—it isn’t half done usually—and costs more. There’s a heap of significance in our being the makers of our Overcoats—a heap of saving for you. Puts the average $10 Coat in our $7.50 grade. Gives us a chance to get finer than others dare make.

NUMBERS THAT SOUND MEANINGLESS They Convey a Definite Order te Some One. “ o 5 THE SYSTEM DESCRIBED - Fron the New York Evening § To the uninitiated spectator the manage- ment of the play of a ot ball team has always been more or less of a mystery How do the different men happen to go in a certain direction or execute a certain movement at just a certain time? isa question that has frequently been asked by D. | Casual observers of a foot ball match. More experienced onlookers are usually able to answer the question in a general way by explaining that signals are used, and nearly every one has at least been told and undér stood in an indefinite way that a puzzling combination of numbers is called out by some member of the team before each play, and has its significance in regard to what | 18 to be done by the players; that ts, that | the combination of numters is a signal, ‘That there is some method of designating the man to whom the ball is to be passed after being snapped back is, of course, alsc generally understood; but that each combi- nation of numbers is a signal which con- veys to-the mind of every man on a team exactly what he and every other member s to attempt to do is a fact which, even if Known generally, probably requires a full explanation to the majority of persons in order that they may realize how the thing is done. For the purpose of tho: y enlight- eniag the general public, therefore, a com- plete system of signals, by which practical- ly any play ordinarily undertaken by a foot ball team may be made, is herewith set down and fully explained. ‘The system given is one of the simplest possible, and is used so as to avoid confus- ing the ideas of the non-expert with a great complexity of numbers, such as is sometimes involved in the elaborate sys- tems used by some teams. ‘The system here given, as has been said, is one of the simplest possible, but will give the reader an idea of signaling sufficient to enable him to at least appreciate the fact that the different and apparently inexpli- cable combinations of numbers which he may hear on the foot ball field certainly have a very definite meaning to the players. The system here given is composed only of numbers, and it is by the use of numbers almost entirely that signals are given by the leading foot ball teams at present. Several years ago systems involving sig- rails with the hand or some motion of the body, or the use of certain words, were very commonly used, but with the new methods | of play most of that sort of signaling has become obsolete, leaving the system in- volving numbers only the one now almost universally employed. The use of the fol- lowing diagram wiil make the explanation t Cy wre very onsy to comprehend: ing a finer line Ss movements and new French shapes.

" G swhere by dealors, = E. LG. C. RG. RT, R. EL ux ole XTX 2 x6 Tio Q x LH. RH. x F. x is x i In the above dina the X's represent the eleven players lined up in their re- Spective positions ready for the signal. The Players are taking them in order, as in- aicated by the abbreviation above each X; lett end, left tackle, left guard, center, right guard, right tackle, right end, quarter- back, left half-back, right half-back, full back. Bach of the men who ordinarily do the running with the ball is also designated in the diagram by a number; that is, left guard is designated 3; left tackle, 7; left half-back, 1%; right guard, 4; right tackle, 8; right half-back, 14, and full back, The two ends, who comparatively seldom get the ball to run with, and the center and quarter-back, who run with it only in very exceptional cases, are not considered as ground gainers in this explanation of sig- naling, and, therefore, are not designated by numbers in the diagram. The six spaces between the seven players in the line are designated as shown in the diagram, as follows: Between center and left guard, 1; left guard and left tackle, 5; jeft tackle and left end, #; center and right guard, 2, right guard and right tackle, 6; right tackle and right end, 10. ‘The spaces beyond each end are designated by Nos. 11 and lz for left and right ends, respec- tively. 1t ‘Will be percetved that all the players and spaces on the left of the center are designated by odd, and those on the right by even numbers, The full-back is num- bered 15 simply so as to make the numbers consecu from 1 to 15 inclusive, The position, inasmuch as it 1s neutral as be- tween the left and right of the center, so far as this system is concerned, might have been designated indifferently by either an odd or an even number. Supposing the members of the team te have committed to memory the numbers as applied in this system, and to be thoroughly familiar with them, as they needs must be in order that they may work smoothly, the subject of the manner of using the numbers may be taken up. The simpiest way in which the signals can be given by the captain or the quar- ter-back, who usually gives them, as he has to pass tne ball, and can usuaily do this more surely if he himself decides be- forehand upon the man to whom he shail pass it, is to give first what is technically known as a bluff number and means noth- ing, and to follow this with the number of the player who is to take the ball, and the number of the space where he is to en- deavor to advance. For example, the quarter-back wishes the left half-back to go aroun: end. The signal would be 7—1 first number being the bluff, and if signiticance, may, of course, be any number at all, If the play desired were to have the right guard run with the ball between center and left guard the signal would be %—1—1. ‘This is the principle of the whole system. In case this system is so simple that the opponents would discover the meaning of the signals, as might easily happen, It would only be necessary to change ‘the method of giving them. One of the most common ways of doing this would be to have the sum of the first two numbers of a signal be the number of the player who is to take the ball, and have these followed by the number of the space through which he is to go. Thus, 4-6-2 ad mean that the left tackle (@ plus 3 is to run between the right i tackle, haphazard without real meaning. S—#—11 given as a signal would mean that the right half-back (5 plus G, equal 14) 1s to run around the left end. In this way, or by still further changing rd Nos. 21 and 12 being simply gtven a nal numbers, the pe kept in ignor- opponents m unee of the offensive site's Intentions. Sometimes, however, it ts found necessary to change to an entirely different system to that ype has been in use, of various matter to very simple 8 system be rty and forty. ve the sum numbers count for the i for the full-back to kick Different numbers might kicked in a cer- nis system, be put to any use in p foot ball Af it is desired to in plays or to vary the game in other ways, the system has only to be extended ad ifb. oe A Duel With Axes. ef a bioody duel fought in Perriet n reeetved.
