.". 25 o ORTS, Wt v - ' -THE ' EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. WEDNESDAY, ‘G. U.-W. Va. Game One ELEVENS TO CLASH HERE HAVE HIGH EASTERN RANK May Lack Tradition of Some Other Contests, But Both Teams Are Noted for Brilliant Play. Yale-Dartmouth Match Attractive, BY H. C. BYRD. ESPITE the fact that several big contests between powerful East- ern elevens are scheduled Saturday. the game here hetween Georgetown and West Virginia should be productive of just about as good foot ball as any other And the game itself. while it does not have back of it the tradition of some other games, and while neither Georgetown nor West Virginia is mentioned usually on a par with Pehnsylvania, Dartmouth. Chicago, Prince- ton and Navy, nevertheless it is fairly certain that the meeting between these two elevens is likely to be just as noted for brilliant play and worth- while performances In other words. as far as foot ball itself is concerned and as far as the comparative strength of teams may be judged, Washington has on Saturday one of the big games of the day. Awhile back Washington turned out some 30.000 strong to watch Navy 13. — Both Georgetown and West Vir- |~ than was either' Penn State or Navy | as well organized.

As a rule, the defensive cen- ter drops back and tries to intercept the ball or break up the play as soon as he sees a pass coming. The right end goes down 10 yards and veers to the left at an angle of 45 degrees. He does this to pull the defensive right halfback out of posi- tion. The left end goes down and also back out of position. The front, or rizht halfback of the passer's side goes down about 8§ vards and veers to the right. The man in quarterback position angles off to the left. past the line of scrimmage, and then cuts at an angle over center. When he angles off to the left he draws the fullback away. and when he shifts suddenly to the right he gains a few steps on the fullback. Passer Has Choc The defensive center will probably follow the right halfback. but the halfback has the edge hecause he is faster and can get away from the center. Now the stage is set for the pass. The passer has his choice. No. 1 choice is the right half- back. He is usually free. hecause others have ‘been decoved away and there is no other man to the right of him where he is running.

While the men that carry the ball are popular with the public, the man that makes it possible for the runner to advance is popular with the coach Regardless of how fast a runner fx or of how well he can dodge straight arm, pivot, reverse or change his pace. he will never be successful un less he has 10 men hiocking effec tively for him. Harold (Red) Grange was a runner: but most of Grange's cess was due to his teammates Grange was at his best in zoing through a broken field. He could do everything in running with the hall that you would want a hack te do. but few ever realize how Grange reached the hroken fields o1 Illinnis’ opponents. To make Grange successful Coach Robert C. Zuppke developed one of the finest blocking teams the country has ever seen. When Grange tonk the pass from center there were 10 men moving ahead and hlocking out the defense players. Ten men were breaking a path for Grange, mowing down the rushing defenders and en abling Grange to make his way past the scrimmage line. There he was able to shift for himself. Ending his career at Tllinois the vear that Grange made his phenom enal start was McMillen. This pow erful lineman was one of the greatest guards who ever lived. He was as fine a guard as Grange was a back, but little fame came to him. Withoni McMillen Grange could never have started as brilliantly as he did. but McMillen was a lineman and the linemen do most of the work. while the backs gather in the glory creat OTH Western and Business squads that will face in the opening of the interhigh grid title series Friday were sent through stiff drills vesterday. Western, the favorite of many to triumph in the series. is prepping energetically for the tilt. Anpouncement that Charley Walker one of the Red team’s dependables, will take his place in the line Friday: having been only slightly injured several dayvs ago, has boosted Western's hopes.
