The Anchorage High School Mules, captained by Lettie Bliss, defeated the highly touted Peewee Valley Cyclones, under the leader- ship of Mary Barr All of the team members were attired in approved foot ball regalia with the exception that grid shoes were eliminated, because the local sporting stores could offer nothing small enough for the petite feet of 'gllw players.

Five players were hurt in the Army victor Carr, Syracuse ace and Eastern high point scorer up to last Saturday, and Trapnell, star of the cadet backfield, suffered injuries which may keep them from the game for the remainder of the season. iy Singer, Syracuse quarterback, vesigned from the squad after he had struck Referee Victor A.

In every play each man musf give his best and he must have a duty to perform. On this particular play the linemen have a real task. First the left guard 1s shifted to the right of center. This formation may be termed ‘left guard over,’ or ‘right shift,’ at which the guard shifts and the backs hop into the places indicated. Signals and then the snap of ball. Here's how the play goes: The left end cuts across the line of scrimmage to cut down the defensive full. The left tackle charges to the right to cover up the hole toward the direc- tion of the play. The center also charges right to cover hole left by the left guard, who comes out in back o his own line to get into the interference. The left guard charges around, and it is his duty to get the defensive full (that’s two men on the defensive full). The right guard also comes out be- hind his own line to get into the in- terference and is to block and drive the opposing tackle in. The right tackle charges to his left to cover the hole left by the right guard. The right end charges the opposing tackle driving him in (that makes two men on the tackle). The right half and the quarter charge the opposing end, driving him out (that's two men on the end). The full then leads the play between the end and tackle and cuts down the first man he encounters. If any team. mate fails to perform his duty then the fullback will try to get the man out. The ball is passed to the left half, who follows the full wherever he may lead until he passes the scrimmage line, then he may use his own judg- ment. (Copyright. 1926.)

Coach HARD GAME FACED BY EPISCOPAL HIGH ALEXANDRIA, Va., November 2.— Episcopal High School’s foot ball team | faces the toughest assignment meted out to it this Fall, when Virginia 4 Episcopal School comes from Lynch- burg, Va., to play the local eleven on Hoxton Field Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The game is one of the largest drawing attractions of the prep school division of this State each year and it will be extra important this season. Episcopal has lost only two games this Fall, but has not played consist- ently at the top of its game. The visitors defedted Staunton M. A., 18 to 0, last Saturday. St. Mary's Celtics, city amateur un- limited basket ball champions, will play the Woodside M. E. team here tonight in a practice game at the Ly- ceum Hall at 7:30. o The Peerless A.

EW YORK, November 2.—Jake Slagle, a p: Tiger man from Princeton, is threatenin, harness after three weeks of idleness, assing, running, kicking Harvard. He i back in ue to injuries, and if he lives.up to his reputation he will cut loose in the first of the Big Three series Saturday. Short passes he throws just behind the rush line and his dazzling open-field dashes have aided in Princeton’s crushing victories over Harvard in the last two seasons. He has been a terror to Yale also. Harvard, so far this season. has shown no real defense against a forward-passing attack such as Princeton and Slagle will throw, some critics say. i Yale. with Maryland ahead, has thrown a host of substitutes into the line-up that failed against Army in an effort to develop a winning com- bination. Brown, which will oppose Norwich, is letting down the bars for 11 iron ‘men who have played two straight games without a substitution. Dart- mouth is resting easily before the game with Boston University. Light practice is the rule, as many of the major Eastern elevens will en- gage small opponents to recuperate after strenuous games.. Army expects little opposition from Franklin and Marshall. Navy has a few small weaknesses to correct before meeting West Virginia Wesleyan. Some elevens have tough jobs next Saturday, however. Pennsylvania is recuperating after the Tllinofs upset before tackling hard work in_preparation for Penn State. West Virginia is scrimmaging for Pittsburgh. There seem to be no ex- pectations of easy victories in Car- negle Tech vs. New York University, Syracuse vs. Georgetown, Rutgers vs. Lafayette and Lehigh vs. Bucknell. Greatest Play I Ever Saw VH—TYING BY DAVY A GIAN MOREY, (Coach, Formerly Middlebury College, now at Auburn.

When one considers that the team is drawn from a total of 140 men, one can get a real idea as to the fecat the boys accomplished against the great Harvard aggregation. It is quite possible that the last minute of the Auburn-Vanderbilt game of 1925 was as thrilling as the Harvard-Middlebury game when Au- burn turned a defeat into a victory ‘during those final 60 seconds by a long forward pass and a fleld goal. It was spectacular play. but I doubt that it was as spectacular as the work of the team from the little college against the mighty Harvard eleven. At any rate, I did not get the same thill. Then, again, the Middlebury-Wil- liams game of 1922 was spectacular in the extreme. Here Williams came on to win in the last few minutes after Middlebury had led by three points almost to the end. There was a game of the series that ultimately will decide the northern Virginia unlimited | champions. The game will be played at the Dreadnaught Park at 3 o'clock. Billy Wood, manager of the Alex- andria Fire Department Preps, is after a game to be played here Sunday on the Dreadnaught Fleld at 1 o'clock.

November 2 (#).— of Georgia Bulldogs, with three of the hardest games on the current schedule yet to be played, will go through the remainder of the 1926 season minus the services of 18 first- string players, who were suspended yesterday by Head Coach Woodruff for refusal to comply with training rules. The training rule violations which caused the suspensions were said to have been made last Saturday follow- | ing the home-coming same with the | University of Florida. | | coach Woodruff's order came when | he called the men together yesterday and reminded them mise made a week 120 to keep training rules. At | his_question ig the rules had been cept, 18 playerS stepped out and were sent to the showers. In a statement Coach Woodruff said the men had written him, letters of apology, “assuring me of their loyalty and protesting that they had not realized they had broken training rules in the sense I had construed them. The honesty of these men has touched me greatly and I am now con- vinced that Georgia has a team that can be trusted.” . Three of the hardest games of the season confront Georgia in the Au- burn, Georgia Tech and Alabama clashes. While the suspensions were an- nounced as “Indefinite,” Coach Wood- ruff said the men would not be al- lowed to play again this season.

Yet the Harvard-Middleburyg game stands out. We went to Harvard primed to piay fast, tricky foot ball; with a repertoire of real passes, a good field goal kicker and a defense worthy of a big rival. We needed it all—and | more—to win. Harvard always played | & conservative game and our doings sent their defense a bit in the air bhecanuse we were fo unorthodox. We could not hope to win with conserv. tive play. nowever, and we tried the unexpected at every stage of the game. 8 . Though we tried all kinds of un- orthodox play, we could not do much with Harvard and felt lucky that we held them to one touchdown in the first quarter, which ended 6 to 0 against us. We went through the second quarter with neither team scoring and the half ended 6 to 0 in Harvard's favor. Harvard used only simple plays and was thoroughly con- servative and orthodox in the selec- tion of these. In the third quarter we began mixing passes on first downs with end runs and trick plays until we worked the ball to the Harvard 20-vard line. Here we seemed stopped when Klev: enout dropped back to the 32-yard line and drop-kicked a goal from the field, making the score 6 to 3, but still against us. It looked lke a | defeat and the game rocked along until near its end A Here by a peculiar mixing , of passes and other plays we carried the ball well down the line until in sight of the Harvard goal line. Little time was left to play when suddenly, on second down, our quarterback. Papke, gave the signais for a goal from fleld kick. Klevenout was again called back, this time to the 17-vard line: and before Harvard re- covered from the surprise of a kick on second down, he shot the ball between the goal posts and the score was 6 to 6, where it remained at the end of the game. ‘The surprise element was the spec- tacular part of each Kick, for each was made on an early down.

The aver- age fan wonders what it is-all about. though he sees the plavers grouped well back of the ball hold a confer- ence and then spring into their posi tion, the ball being snapped immedi- ately. There are several reasons for the huddle. 1. It permits the team to advise the quarterback about any weaknesses they have discovered. 2. It may permit the team on attack to outflank the defense. Objections to it are as follow 1. It tends to kill any initiative on the part of the quarter, thus prevent- ing him from really running the team. It delays the game tremend- ousl; True, Princeton and other teams used it without delaying the game perceptibly last season. On the other hand, Chicago is so slow with it this season as to make it appear that the Maroons are stalling for time. There is system to the huddle, even though it may look confusing. The players actually take certain set positions when they huddle in order to permit them to run to their places without delay or confusion. Study the diagram’ shown as well as the sketches, and you will see just how this svstem I8 applied to expedite speed.

Several years ago when the Univ and Jefferson in a New Year day coachin; and Jefferson. Some of these report contributed. A few days before the game Smith remarked: “I would like to find out something about this Washington | and Jefferson team. Of all the re- ports I have, no two have exactly agreed. This team apparently has never used the same tactics in an two games this year and the ind viduals seem to behave differently every time they play.” You have often read of the signals of one team being stolen or bought by scouts. According to the stories, by knowing the signals of the other team you are able to diagnose all their plays and swing your defense so that you will block them in any- thing they may attempt. This is excellent for fiction, T pre- sume, but it is unfortundtely untrue. TUndoubtedly coaches have come into possession of the signals of their op- ponents, but if the coach is intelll- gent he will never make use of them. No coach, who is honest, would stoop to this, but .outside the questions of honesty and integrity involved, it would be_bad judgment. It is difficuit enough to make a team thoroughly acquainted with fts own signals without adding the sig- nals of the opposing team. Plavers are drilled in signal practice until they automatically answer the call of a number. But some players never become absolutely familiar with them. I recall a certain halfback who avas the sensation of the country a few vears ago. Had to Be Nudged. He was selected hy Walter Camp on his first all-American eleven after he went through the entire Harvard team, but this same player had to be | nudged by the quarterback each time | the quarterback intended to call his | signal. That is how he “tipped off” | the halfback that he was to carry the ball. An intelligent scout for Cornell discovered this and when the halfback, who ran wild against Har- vard, faced Cornell later in the sea- son he was smothered by the Itha- cans. They paid no attention to the signals; they simply watched for the nudge of the quarterback. A scout can discover many pecul- farities in individua Backs often make some move which tips off their| intentions. By watching for this move | of feet, arms, shoulders, head or body, an opposing lineman, end or back | will know when the player is to take the ball. Triple threat men, meaning play- ers who are used to run, kick and for. ward pass, are given close attention by scouts. Most of them will assume different attitudes for a run, kick and pass. By noting the peculiarities a scout can impart the information to his players for use on defense. Ends and linemen will often tip off the intended direction of the play and frequently a quarterback station himself in a certain position certain play. Coaches “teach players to conduct themselves so that they will never tip off the play by any physical move ment, but there are many players who have formed physical peculiaritics that no coach can eliminate and who will unconsciously make some slizht indi for a movement which will telegraph what | is coming to the defense. The scout can find out many things about individuals which will help his coach to shape his attack and defe: He can discover just how each man plays. There are, for instance, diffe ent types of ends. Some ends sm in and others walit. What kind of ends has this future opponent— smashing or waiting? This informa- tion is important. When you are lined up in punt formation, for in- 1 1 game at Pasadena the late And. California at dhe time, had more than 50 reports on Washington ing is the information gathered about ersity of California met Washington Smith, s had been solicited and others were often advisable to have the kicker tuck the ball under his arm and skirt the end. This is not advisable against a waiting_end. Here is information that can be used to determine yvour choice of pla Players Must Scout Also. The scout can gather similar in- formation regarding every player. How do guards, center and tackle play? Are they weak to right or left? How are the backs as regards to speed and style? Does the center vary his defensive tactics? When tha team kicks who does most of the tackling under punts? What linemen go down under kicks? Who protects the kicker and forward passer? Who is used on interference” What are their playing characteristics? Does the kicker punt only in one style or does he vary his kicks? What kind of passes does the team favor? Does the passer ever make a running pass or are all his passes from a standing position? The answers to these questions and others, together with the individual peculiarities of the players, help you to_determine your repertoire of plays. While coaches teach their players never, by any movement, to indicate what play is coming, the players also are taught to leok over the opposing team on hoth offense and defense. By the time the garae starts each player is fairly well acquainted with most of the characteristics of his opponents. By watching the defense, the offensive side, particularly the quarterback, dis- covers where to strike; he finds what looks like the roint of least resist- ance. By watching the team on at- tack the defensivé eleven will quite often discover where the play is com- ing. But solving an offense through knowledge of the other team's sig- nals is not the way it is done What is more, the huddle system, now used by nearly all teams in the Middle West and spreading rapidly to other sections, makes it impossible for the other team to hear the signals. The system has another advantage. After coming out of the huddle tha players line up auickly and get off the play much faster than where the quarterback calis signals and often changes them. The huddle tem makes it harder for the defense team to diagnose the play since the offense gets away an instant after it lines up. Next—I'niforms. PRO GRIDMEN, NOT PAID, PLANNING.
