This is a most Ineffective method. For some reason when the run is to elther side and two backs are s0 placed, the one in the rear of the play is unconsciously delaved in starting. He instinctively feels that he will bump or run into his teammate when he steps toward him. As a result he hesitates a moment and will not start until his teammate has gotten under way. That necessarily slows the play. Backs should line up as in the upper illustration. When they on parallel lines thut are close to- zether the coach should ~plac that one is & yard o d of the other. Then he can start at full speed in any di- | rectlon without instinctively fe: g the collision that causes the one in the rear to hesitate hefore starting. Such formations permit the team to run off its plays at full speed with every back par- ticipating. _particularly when Clubs cannot be represented true strength In the Summer.
