Big Green, on Other Hand, Would Use Crimson to by Yale—Caldwell of Elis Is Out of Game for Rest of Year. By the Associated Press. EW YORK, October 19.—Harvard, buoyed by victory over William and Mar; ,_is working hard in preparation for next Saturday’s game with Dartmouth, which is smarting under the sting of defeat . by Yale. Hope -is growing at Cambridge that defeats in Harvard's first two games will be offset by victories over Dartmouth, Yale and Princeton. But so far there is more hope than expectation. . Dartmouth will try in the Harvard Stadium to begin again a pile of victories that collapsed at New Haven after three years of accumulation. While Bruce Caldwell, outstanding back of the early season at Yale, is definitely out for the remainder of the season with a broken bone in his ankle, Noble, another star back, and Ryan, regular tackle, will be suffi- clently recovered from injuries to play against Brown Saturday, it is expected. Weakness against a forward pass- ing attack seems to be the outstand- | ing Middie fault and Colgate will have r\v'mrh of that to offer against the Na Princeton plans a lively welcome for Lehigh, defeated in all four starts this season. BY BENNY Captain and Quarterback Coac! MODERN FOOT BALL Both Army and Syracuse, looking back upon a struggle that brought both serious injuries, are preparing. for battles with Boston University and Penn State, respectively. Carr, high scorer of the season to date, is feared out for the remainder of the Syracuse campaign because of leg injuries and Trapnell, Army back, and Elias, a tackle, probably will not play again for several weeks. Though defeated by Ohio State, Co- lumbia is awaiting confidently the advent of Duke University from North Carolina.

HE forward pass is not altogether popular with some coaches and it is unpopular with a number of teams. but you can safely say that the pass is chiefly responsible for the present popularity of foot ball. This play has introduced more strategy into foot ball than probably all others combined. It has opened up the game and made it spectacular. It has provided a variety that foot ball lacked before its introduction. Tt has, above everything else, gi The forward pass was fi in response to the many critic So many restrictions accompanied the play when introduced that few coaches took advantage of it; most of them ignored it. Four years later further changes in the rules helped the forward pass, but not enough to popularize it. Not until the Spring of 1912 did the rules committee make the last im- portant changes that elevated the for- ward pass into a major weapon of at- tack. It was from this day on that the popularity of the game really grew. s - The forward pass can be used either as a means of scoring or as a threat. A team with a good passer and ca- pable receivers is able to use any style of attack with more success be- cause of them. Valuable as Threat. Consider the opportunities you have if your forward passer is also a good punter: . You line up in_punt formation. . This makes it possible to rua with the ball, to kick or pass it. The safety man of the opposing team 1s forced back. He cannot take a chance on a punt. If he does not £o back, punt over him. The secon defense moves out as protection ag a pass. The linesmen are undecided. ~You may punt, pass or kick. The con- fusion in their minds benefits you, no matter what you intend to do.. The pass is worked in two differsnt ways. One is the mechanical pass, the other is often called the choice pass. The mechanical pass is a set play. 1t calls for the pass to be made to a designated receiver at a designated spot. It is the best pass to use as a scoring play. The choice pass names no’ definite | receiver. _Any eligible man may b» the receiver. The eligible list con pists of the two men at the end of the line and the backs. Yomu can, therefore, have five men eligible to receive a_pa 68 It is up to the passer to pick the receiver on the choice pass. e will select, of course, a man whom the de- fense has not covered. To work this pass successfully a team must have n expert passer and good protection for the passer. He must be able to take his time. to pass accurately. pass or a long pa: While developing a good passer a coach must also develop good receiv- ers (“an throw the ball ahead of the run- * mer =o that he takes the ball over his ehould without losing a step. I the receiver s forced to stop for the | ball, it will often be intercepted or he will be hit so suddenly after making the catch that he drops the bail. Good receivers can take the ball out of the alr without changing their pace in running. Deception in Passing. Many coaches prefei the long pass. Here the ball travels 40 yards or more. Their argument is plausible: * If the pass is completed the receiver will more likely than not score a touchdown: if the pass is intercepted then it will still put vou in the me +» epot where you would be had punted. You have all to g nothing in particular to Tos Most of the good passing teams use deception in passing. They hide the intent of the play. They have a for- ward pass play coupled with most of the running plays. The running play is used a few times to acquaint the defense teani with hs_ rhav'nolcr. It it succeeds continue using it. later The defe will_sooner or Jearn to stop it. Then, later, start out the same way and change to a forward pass instance: If work an end run for a sal the same play soon after. end run several times and then use the forward pass play that starts out as the end run does. Until the de- fense is pulled in to the spot where . you want them, the play is the same as before, and then it suddenly shifts. Some coaches still insist that the forward pass is too hazardous, but with a good passer and good receivers, it is no more hazardous than any other play and less dangerous than most plays if the quarterback has properly set the stage for the pass. Teams used to try forward passes only on third and fourth down, de- nding on the position of the ball. B Grat and second down they would try running plays and if they did not make the yardage they attempted a forward pass on third down and, un- less they HAVE YOUR Headlights Adjusted and registered at CREEL BROS. 1811-17 14th St. NW.

This plan completely neglected the opportunities offered by the forward pass. It removed the element of doubt. Teams that followed this sys- tem soon became marked and the de- fense knew just when to go back into forward pass defense. To make the forward pass of value it must bé used always when least expected. The coach who started using it on first down got away with something. Running Pass Dangerous. The running pass (mads by ‘the passer while on the run) carries the most deception, but is not as safe_as the stationary pass. No man can”be sure of passing accurately while he is In motion and to reduce the hazard of the play most coaches teach their passers to come to a standstill and then throw the ball. In the stationary pass the passer has just as much chance to sidestep defense players who happen to get near him as the man who is trying a running pass. The stationary pass- | er has the whole fleld ahead of him | which the running passer rarely has, he can throw in any direction, he has just as much protection and his block- ers, knowing exactly where he fs, work more effectively. There is a thrill for a crowd in a completed pass, but the spectators get an equal thrill out of an intercepted pass. Indeed, some coaches say that the Intercepted pass is the most spec- tacular break that can occur in a foot ball game. in games. ard line, kicked (Next: The cution of Plays.)

ALEXANDRIA RIVALS WILL CLASH FRIDAY ALEXANDRIA, Va., October 19.— Local scholastic foot ball fans .are looking forward with interest to the George Mason-Alexandria High School game, which will be played at the Dreadnaught park Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock. In the two schools interest is in- tense, and pep meetings, rallies and every possible method of arousing spirit in the game are being used. Records of the teams are nothing to boast over, but each eleven has shown improvement with each game. Whatever the teams lack in ability will be made up in rivalry. Francis and Lunceford of George Mason, who were injured in the Wash. ington and Lee High game last week, probably will be back in the line-up. Every one of the Alexandria. players is in shape. s Sarepta Lodge, Independent Order 0dd Fellows, base ball team will be guest at a banquet given in its honor tomorrow night in the Odd Fellows’ Hall. At that time the Sarepta. Lodge nine will be awarded the Grand Mas- ter's Trophy, emblematic of {he cham- pionship of the Northern Virginia Odd Fellows' League. Alexandria_ Fire Department's un- limited foot ball team will work out at the new municipal swimming pool grounds tonight, and every player on the squad is asked to report promptly at 7 o'clock.

It is up to the quarterback to keep the team pepped up. Next—Another backfield talk. (Copsright. 1926.) CLAGETT BIRD WINS LONG-DISTANCE RACE In the fifth race of the Washington Racing Pigeon Club, flown from Pitts- burgh, the first arrival was to the loft of J. Donald Clagett. With clear weather and a south wind 147 birds were released from 20 lofts at Pitts- burgh at 851 o'clock, and Clagett's entry was home at 1:15. It was this loft's second win in the series. A bird from the loft of D. Roy Mat- thews was second. Matthews has set a new record in Washington by breed- ing four of the five victors in this Fall's serfes and two second-prize winners.

But it has not heen found feasible to construct the drives at present. g Part of the Emory Building now is occupled by other interests, wiio hold a leage on the premises, thus making it imfipracticable to go ahead with the work of alley installation. In all likeli- hood the Davis interests could not get free sway in the bullding until late next Winter, and then there would be no profit in constructing a bowling plant that could be used for only a few months before the season ended. For bowling plants bring in profits (o their owners in only six months of the year. Three months the owner gets nothing more than an even break on his investment, six months he makes money and then follow three months in which his plant is operated at a loss.. At t that's the way Washington alley proprietors figure the business. That sounds reasonable, too. There's nothing going on around the duckpin drives during the heated Summer term, and business is not so brisk in arly Fall and late Spring. But the heavy Winter traflic on the drives warrants the big investments in the bowling business in Washington. In no other city, 'tis said, is the little pin game o popular as here. But when the new Davis enterprise is launched it will be welcomed heart- ily, no doubt, by Washingtonians. There is plenty of room for egpansion of the game in the National Capital, for duckpin devotees are increasing by thousands annually here. Washington's devotion to the duck- pin game is seen in the considerable amount of business alleys now in operation are forced to forego. The Recreation chain, that includes the Recreation, Coliseum and Grand Cen- tral Palace”plants, is so filled with leagues bowling formal schedules that the casual duckpinner seeking a bit of exercise has to get to the drives early in the evening if he would find a place to show his skill in toppling the little maples. This full program continues until the or- ganized bowlers have completed their matches, which usually is not before 9:30 at the earliest.

However, Navy people are glad that the team is to meet just such opposi- tion Saturday, as the following week it opposes Michigan in Baltimore, and must perfect a defense against the passing of Friedman, the acknowl- edged master in this style of play. Mighigan swamped the Midshipmen last year, mainly through Friedman's passing, and inflicted the worst defeat a Navy team has received during the era of modern foot ball. The game at Princeton demon- strated that the Navy is particularly strong in reserve material. It started the game with Schuber in place of Shapley, the latter being considered the star runner of the Navy team for the last three seasons. Later in the game there were two more substitutes in the backfield—Caldwell for Rans- ford and Goudge for Hannegan. In spite of the charges in the back- geld and a _number of line replace- ments, the Navy team became strong- er in comparison with Princeton as the game progressed and did its best work in the final quarter. This fact was highly encouraging to the Navy mentors. STILL SEEKS:SOCCERISTS.

KEven those who have been bowling with the leagues stick around for a few more flings at the wood. Yes, the duckpin game, even though the pins are small, is a big proposition here. Pop Evans, who was publicity man- ager for the Convention Hall alleys last season, again will be associated with the bowling fraternity here dur- ing the coming Winter.

By the Associated Press. HICAGO, October 19.—Western Conference foot ball coaches today waded into preparation for the second round of games in the Big -4 Ten title race with only an injury here and there to hamper the work. A taking of stock showed virtually every major cog in the conference machines intact and in place, after three weeks of games that have done much for the teams without exacting a costly toll through injuries. Bob Zu;:’pke, getting ready for Michigan in Saturday’s Midwest classic, was as har the Big Ten championship. The doughty Bob must use a sub- stitute left end in the place of D'Am- brosio, out with a bad ankle, and it is doubtful whether Judd Timm's fractured elbow will permit the back to play. Yost, on the other hand, ordered scrimmage for a_squad which met a stubborn foe in Minnesota Saturday, but emerged without a scratch. Minnesota, brought onme major in- jury out of the Michigan game and began practice for Wabash with Han- son suffering from a severe kick in the head. The lowa squad turned up after the Illinois homecoming with no big hangovers, but with substitute quar- ters calling signals for the time, and Don Hines just getting accustomed to his uniform i fter a hospital siege.
