The first periods, however. fur- nished some interesting foot ball. On two occasions the Hoosiers worked the ball well within the Maroon 10- yard line, only to be held for downs or thrown back through penalties. In the third period, however, the Chicago team took the ball on their own 20-yard liné, and with off-tackle plays and straight bucks, worked it well within Indlana terri- tory. Then they started forward passing, with Pyott throwing and Lampe receiving, and Lampe went over yith a touchdown on one of the long air tosses. In the last period after they scored again, Stakgs shoved in an entirely new team, and twice more they rallied across Indiana's line. On’ three of the four touchdowns goal was kicked.

November 10— A “break.” a flashing black streak and the catlike alertness and watch- ful waiting for which Hopkins fs fast becoming famous, had onc brought its reward. Coac man’s fortune courters h long and hard for an opening, slip finally came. A Black an, > opportunity grabber was on the job. and St. Johns went down to a 3-to-0 defeat at Homewood, in the most stubbornly contested battle seen the university parkway field this sea- son. & it all happened at the beginning of the second half. on the kick-off that opened the third period. St. Johns was lined up to roceive Turnbull's kick-off, which was short, the ball salling only as far as the 18-vard line. Captain Darley of St Johns took a step or two forward, as it he were going to catch tA. skin, but changed his mind and went on to make interference when he saw that Bounds was under the ball. However, nobody got under the bali. ‘Then it was that fate took a hand, for the spheroid bounced back ward, directly into the path of the onrushing Hopkins' captain, Bonner. Bonner was 8o surprised at the turn affairs had taken that”he merely closed his arms around the leather. making no effort to run. This mental lapse probably cost him a touchdown, for he had a clear field ahead Hopkins could not rush the ball across and called upon Turnbull to use his toe. He made good from ine. At all other times of the game St. Johns maintained a slight edge over its old rival, principally as a resuilt of the splendid kicking of George Darley, whose punts were so well placed that he had a fairly wide margin over Turnbull in the ex- changes.

J., November 110.—Rutgers College avenged a smashing foot ball defeat of Tuesday by West Virginia, crushing the Uni-| versity of Richmond today, 56 to 0. The lighter southern team had no chance, Rutgers having the ball most of the time. The home team scored a touchdown in the first play of the game. The last seven minutes of the game was played in semi-darkness, relieved by two powerful floodlights on either side of the visitors' goal posts. Homer Hazel, 260-pound back, kick- ed a fleld goal from 39-yard line.

Answered by PADDY DRISCOLL Star and_ former coach at Nerth- western Unlversity, All-conference and All-Western Halfback, 1915-16. Al-American Service Quarterback, 1918, * = x % A drop-kick or place-kick is the best play to use aiter a touchdown. It is the simplest, surest and easiest play. A good kicker should never miss a try at goal when only fifteen vards away and directly in front of the uprights.-unless the line fails to hold. If a team has a good drop- er with steady nerves, the drop- kick should be tried in preference to the place-kick because only one man handles the ball and there is not so much chance of anything going wrong. The pass from the center for a drop-kick is much easier than for a placement. (Copyright, 1823.)

Although Busi- ness pointed the way to Eastern, the potential strength of Guyon's young- sters was not shown, a muddy field :{x&.gu{fin wszkvne% by a game e ree days befol Leine e y: re telling e the majority of form sharks say that Tech will win over Eastern by a wide margin, Coach Guyen of the former team does not count the game lost by any means. On_ past performances it would appear that a stirring battle can be expected Fri- day. Eastern walloped Western, 13 to 7, but Tech could only score one touchdown against the Georgetown boys. Eastern May Try Passes. Eastern hopes to down Tech in the same manner it trounced Western. by an overhead attack. The Manual Trainers have revealed a formidable line that is adept in checking plunges off tackles and through the guards. and their flankers, Kessler and Wood, are clever enough to halt plays in the end zone. The chances are that 4uyon is canny enough to see.that his team could use an aerial attach to advantage against Tech. West- ern’s line, by the way, was formi able, but’ Lastern unieashed several passes that bafiled the Georgetow secondary. When the two teams meet Friday Captain Charley Pugh of Tech will t watched with interest It was Charl who made those sweeping runs fron kick formation, his efficient toe that drop-kicked the ball from the 17- yard line against Central. The fle~t Pugh can outrun any player on the Eastern eleven and if he once gets away Friday there will be misery in the ranks of the East Capitol Streeters. Martin _ Gooch, Tech's plunging back, also should bear watching, judging from the manner in which he harassed Central las: week Some pretty kicking should be order Friday. Jack Smith of Eastern and Milly Price of Tech are two of the most reliable punters in the high schools. Jack’s brilliant booting in the Western fray was a big factor in his team’s victory. Milly punted well in the Central game. There are two youngsters of Eastern upon v Coach Guyon is _counting y. They are Tom Hook and William Gladstone Roudabush, two alert gridders who have starred thus far. There will be one other game in the high school series this week. Western. defeated by Eastern and Tech, will encounter Business High Tuesday, in Wilson Stadium. A vic- tory is looked for by the Georgetown school. but since the Ninth Streeters’ startling win over Eastern, the chances are that Western is due for a tough game. Neither team has much of a chance to figure in the title running and a victory for West- ern would not menace Tech's on- ward march. Western this year has lost two games, vet in each defeat has shown occasional flashes of a championship eleven. While many breaks were against it in both the Business und Tech battles, Western used poor judgment and seemed unable to make use of its real strength. The George town school gained much more yard- age than Eastern and threatencd Tech's goal several times, but the scoring punch was lacking. High wchool foot ball thus far has been brimful of upsets. No one e pected Business to triumph over Eastern and quite a few of our al- leged experts picked Central to win over Tech. Eastern rudely smashcd the dope when it downed Western. The only forecast that proved cor- rect was Central’s trouncing of E ern. TRIPLE-THREAT MAN NOT KEY TO SUCCESS BY WALTER CAMP. There has been a lot of talk this season about the triple threat man. and some people have been led 1 think that a team without a star w can punt, forward pass or rum, ha no chance in modern foot ball.
