Southern foot ball interest todayv centered about five Southern Con- | ference encounters, three intersec- tional contests by xfe teams, and five games in which conference grid- iron squads plaved teams outside the circult.

AROLD ZUBER, who is the leader of the Jayhawkers for this season, is one of the best foot ball men ever turned out at that school. He has starred on the varsity team for the past two years and bids fair to gain even more recognition for his work this Fall. Zuber halls from Kansas City, Kans., and received his early athletic training at the Kansas City, Kans. High School. At Kansas University he is hailed as the greatest triple-threat man that has ever performed there. His punting, forward passing and ball carrying have been of the highest order. In fact, he can do anything that should be done on a foot ball field, and can do it well. Zuber alternates between half and full, being a fine man at either posi- tion. He does the bulk of the place-kicking for Kansas, and is very proficient at it. Last season he averaged about 45 vards each for his punts, one of the most_enviable records of any kicker in the count He is @ basket ball player of no mean ability Kansas University five. the country in 1923, playing on the championship team of Kansas Cit which won the national tournament in Chicago that year. COACH. RANKLIN C. CAPPON, a resident of Lawrence, Kans, is the new at Kansas University this Fall, coming here from the Univer ichigan, where he was an assistant to “Hurry-up” Yost. At Michigan he was very successful as a line developer, being especially good at training ends. Benny QOosterbaan is one of his pupils. He succeeds George “Potsy’’ Clark. Cappon was himself an excellent foot ball plaver in his undergraduate days at Michigan, heing a very versatile athlete. He could perform very capably at either the guard, tackle or fullback posts, and for this reason was 'a valuable man to the eleven. . The year after he had graduated he took up the reins as coach at Luther College (lowa), from where he moved to Michigan at the request of Yost. Cappon'’ is an inspiring person, and the University of Kansas should do well under his leadership. He may also coach in the basket ball team there, as he has acted as assistant hasket ball coach and has capably filled the posi- tion at that institution. The schedule for Kansas for this season follows: October 2—Kansas, 20; Washburn, 0. October 9—Wisconsin, 13; Kansas, 0. October 16—Kansas Aggies at Manhattan. October 23—Nebraska at Lawrence. October 30—Drake at Des Molnes. ovember 6—Grinnel at Lawrence. November 114-Oklahoma at Lawrence. ovember 20—Missourl at Columbia.

However, there are those who figure Mike Kelly has a stronger Central eleven than has heen thought and that Fastern may make a better showing in the series than is generally expected so far. Despite the close score the West- ern-Business clash was by no means well played and both teams were in- clined to be a bit more rough than | was believed to be neceswary, fre- quent penalties resulting. Norman (Huck) Hilleary, speedy Western quarterback, was the hero of the game. He not only counted the touchdown and drop-Kicked for the extra point, but gained more ground than any back on the field. The Red team's shift plays combined with their speed appeared to bewllder the heefy Business combination that ap- | peared slow and unable to get started |and excepting for & short while early in the second period Western had the ball in Business territory. Hilleary went over for the game's lone marker in the first period when the litte fleld general dropped back aparently to essay a fleld goal. In- stead he streaked around right end for 15 yards and was over. Good fortune plaved a part in the Western counter as well as Hilleary's snappy work. Charlie May's kick from be- hind the Stenographers’ goal hit one of the Business players and bounced outside on the 10-yard stripe.

Drake went out to tackle the Soon- and State at base ball, basket ball, hockey not attend foot ball games. interest. He kno whistle blows. The strategy of foot ball is similar to that of base ball. Here the actions of the pitcher and batter depend upon a number of things. What is the count on the batter? How many men are on the bases and on what bases? How many are out? What s the score? What is the inning? Who comes to bat next? Pitcher and bat- t must govern themselves accord- ing to the answers to these questions. what down it is, the number of yards he has to make, the position of the ball regarding the sidelines and goal line, the score, how much time of play remains in,the half, the position of the defense players, climatic con- ditions as they relate to wind, sk sun and the condition of the field, dry or_slippery. In most of these situations he has several plays that he can use, hut there fs always one play that will best fit the situation, all things con- sidered. His choice may be deter- mined by the position of a single back who may be playing a bit too wide, too deep or too close... Or his choice may be determined by a lineman who has moved out too far or in too far. There are general conditions call- ing for general plays, and 1 will set down a few of these, 5o that you will know what to look for under the speci- fied conditions, Must Kick in Danger Zone. Tet us start with the kick-off. Your side receives the ball. The runner is downed inside his team’s 15-vard line. You put the ball in play on the 15- yard line and you find yourself in the danger zone. That is what the 20 yards of territory directly in front of your goal line is referred to. Having the ball on your own 15- yard line the first play should be a kick. Occasionally, if the punter is also a reliable runner, he will fake a punt and carry the ball, but coaches generally frown upon this play. spread and with the ends coming in, all linemen are schooled to watch for a possible run and the play fafls more often than it succeeds. 1 have seen the runner thrown for a loss of 10 yards, forcing him to kick from hack of his own goal line on the next play; something that s always extremely dangerous, for the kicker other time. Even if he gets the hail away safely he rarely kicks yond his own 30-yard line and imme- diately puts the opposing team in a scoring way. The next zone is from the 20 to the 40 yard line. This fs where you start your running attack, and, unless there is an unusually strong wind that will give you a wide margin of advantage. you do not kick until third down. You attempt to advance the ball by rush- ing on first and second downs. If suc cessful, of course, you continue rush- ing. Then comes the territory between the two 40-yard lines. lere is where you get in your varfety of plays. You can start forward passing in this zone. You mix your plays to create & favor- able situation for the pass. You un- settle the defense. Rarely kick be- fore fourth down in this zone. Next Zone for Kicks. ‘When you get into the next zone— from the opponents’ 40-yard line to their 20-vard line—you are in the ter- ritory best suited for trick plays. When a team has the ball in this section look out for the unusual in attack. Algo, this is the zone from which most of the place kicks and drop kicks are made.

This I8 the one zone where an attempt is made to carry the hall on fourth down. 1If the team fails and loses the ball, the opposing eleven is n a bad position and forced to punt on first down.
