il 5P Team Work Rated by Roper As Most Vital Essential to Success in Foot Ball SEES MORE FUN IN GAME NOW THAN UStbordination of Selfish Motive and Individual Ambition Imperative on Gridiron, Asserts Famous Coach of Princeton Teams. s MY 25 YEARS O OFTEN have heen asked whether| down in my entire college career—in .| the Columbia game in New York, when I liked foot ball when I pla My answer is emphati Of course, it was har one wav harder work than it today. And I am free to confess the ame is more fun to piay. But there is vtain thrill and exhila tlon one gets out of foot Lull that 1 believe is 1o be had in no other game oot ball is distinctly a team game one of self-effacement for the com- mon good, of willing subordination of selfish motive and individual ambi tion to the cause of the team. To like foot ball a boy must like his associates on the team and like his college. }le must get as much satis- present faction fn making an opening for teammate to carcy the hall as if he wera car it There is only one real way to play foot ball and enjoy it and that is to play on a team that gets eleven men in every plav When any team goes down the field, as 1t surely will, with every man work- ing his hardest and giving everything he has in him, I know the individual members are compensated for the davs of hard work behind them The grandstand playver and the fellow who plays only for himself cannot really llke foot ball, because he does not know what the game is ‘or what it means. Played Only Two Poslitions. In the vears I played at school and at Princeton I never plaved any place but quarterback and end rush, and in neither of these positions was I ahle to ry the ball. In my day the quargerback could mot run with it and we seldom gave the ends the ball at Princeton when I was playing. 1 always liked offensive play much better than defensive. So, long before 1 realized the importance of team- play, 1 taught myself how to inter- fere, thinking in that way I would compensate mysell for my failure to take the ball. 1 found it a lot of fun to help some other fellow make a gain. It is not difficult to learn how to interfere. Any one can do it. All it takes is determination., The inter- ferer does not have to sidestep or dodge or even bother about carrying the ball. Some might say that the interferer, or the man who cleans the line for the back with the ball, acts automatically, Perhaps he does to some extent, but he is helping a teammate gain ground and usually there is little or no credit given the interferer by the spectators or outside publio. For the last few years we have heard a great deal about Grange and other great running backs. Asa mat- ter of fact, theso same backs would have diMeulty in gaining enough ground ¥ bury them in except for the 10 other men on the team.

When T was at college we were for- tunate fn having some very good coaches. Of course, I remember hest the men who coached me individually —Garry Cochran, Harry Brown and Howard Broka: They were all great 3 in thelr d nd inspiring Cochran was captain of the test ever to achers. "9 team—one of the gr represent Princeton. Broka the other end on that same while Harry Brown was end on the champlonship '3 team. These three men all were trained in the same school and ail plaved the end pos in about the same way. As a matter of fact, Princeton end play has no: changed much in 35 years. Ever since the days of Brown and Trench- ard, back in 1893, we have played along the same general lines. Garry Cochran is the man who really is responsible for Princeton's end play. As a player and coach he developed it along such sound lines that our end play today, particularly on defense, is about what it was 30 years ago. This is a remarkable trib- ute to the genius of Cochran. ©Our play in other positions has changed materially to meet changing condltions, but Winn, who coach- es the ends at Princeton today, is teaching his charges just about the same general style of play that Coch- ran taught. And in my opinion Winn is about as great an end coach today as Cochran w. Different Points Stressed. In thinking back over the different coaches I played under it is interest- ing to note, while all taught along the same general lines, there were certain individual points that each man laid particular emphasis on. Of course, they were all agreed upon defensive play, but when it came to other parts of end play one seemed to stress the importance of getting down the field on punts a trifle more than the others. Harry Brown gave a great deal of time to showing us how to push the runner on a mass or tackle play. In talking over their own playing days with these coaches 1 gathered that they liked to do best the thing that they stressed most in their coaching, which was only natural. We were ve! fortunate in our end coaches while I was at Princeton, and it was much easfer to play under these dif- ferent men, since they all taught us the same general style of play.

The association was formed at Ath- ens, Ga., last vear, when the mentors who always attended sessions of the Southern Conference decided the coaches might as well have thefr own organization and thus create an op portunity for the exchange of ideas.

THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., THURSDAY, DECEMBER 2. 1926. ASHINGTON'S latest sports novelty—a girls' basket ball team, playing under regular men’s rule—will be presented at the Arcadia Auditorium next Sunday night. The Arcadians, as they style them- selves, will take the floor, five strong, to tackle the Carltons, an aggrega- tion of boys, in a contest preliminary to the Washington-Detroit game of the American Basket Ball League. Coached and managed by Jack Mar- tin, who is a basket ball player of considerable experlence and no mean ability herself, the Arcadians. are a really formidable team. Its players are drawn from a_group of girls who started on Washington courts with teams playing under girls’ rules and in the course of the last month they have rapidly acquired a keen knowi- edge of (he intricacies of the men's game. They now seem well prepared o operate us a five-member team as well as a strong sextet when given an additional player. The squad directed by Coach Mar- tin includes Lucille Limbach, Char- lotte Hatton and Margaret Whaley, who formerly played with the Met- ropolitans; Helen Schultze, former star of Washington Athletic Club; Leah Shofnos, one of the best players of the Business High Night School Comets while with that sextet, and Clara Alderton, who was a leading performer for .Princess Athletic Club, for a couple of seasons. In practice, these girls have re- vealed a deal of ability to pass, guard and shoot and enough speed to make their play highly interesting and en- tertaining. The Arcadian quint av- erages in weight about 120 pounds. And that will he about the average weight of the hoys' team the Arca- dians will encounter Sunday night. Exhibiting excellent teamwork, the St. Martin's basket ball team, cham- pion of the Northern division of the Catholic Review Girls'’ Basket Ball League, defeated St. Paul's sextet, Southern division title winners, 22 to 16, in the first of the three-game serles to decide the league title and the cup to be awarded by the Balti- more Catholic Review. A large gallery turned out for the match, which was staged in the St. Martin’s gymnasium.

Tomorrow afternoon at 4:30 on St. Paul's floor, the teams will clash in the second game of the final serfes. Should St. Martin's tossers win this argument, the title will be theh:s.

SALES & SERVICE LEY SOUTH ATLANTIC TEAMS WILL LOSE MANY STARS Georgetown’s Great Ends and Connaughton, Guard, to Be Graduated in June—Maryland and C. U. Also Will Be BY H. C. BYRD. EVERAL of the stellar lights of South Atlantic foot ball have wound up their gridiron careers and will be missing from squads when practice is begun next September. Not a school that will not be hit, and, rather strange to say, nearly every school 18 going to be hard hit hy loss of star backs, Georgetown und North Carolina State are about the only institutions that will not suffer con- siderably by graduation of mighty guod backs. Virginia perhaps will be herder hit than any other university. It loses eight of what it considered to be its regular eleven. The two tackles and the quarterback are alt that are due to return. That means that Cuddy and Laird, the best backs at Virginia, have appeared in their last contest in_ an Orange and Blue uniform. Washington and Lee will lose two brilliant performers in Rauber and Palmer, the former a fine line plunger and the latter one of the best runners in a broken field in the South. North Carolina faces the loss of McPherson, the fastest back in the South and probably the fastest in the country, while Maryland: will he compelled to do without Mike Stevens, who played brilliant foot | ball in every game in which he took part. Catholic University is not going to have Manfreda again and V. P. I loses Moss, who alternated at full- back and in the line and did a good job at both places. Lose Clever Linemen. . Virginia and V. P. I. also lose some good linemen and so does Georgetown. Pinck and Mackall, who did such good work in the guard positions for rginia, and Moran, star center at P. I, have finished their careers. Waite and McGrath, Georgetown's brilllant ends, and Connaughton, the All-American guard, will not bhe re- placed easily and neither will be Dent of Maryland. Virginia will suffer just as much as Georgetown in the matter of ends, because it is almost a foregone con- cluston that no school is likely to de- velop two men capable of replacing players of the callber of Friedburg and Ahner. Of course, the general saying is that no matter how good they are some- body always pops up to take their Dealt Blows. places, but this is far from true. Once in a while a really great player is re- placed by a better one, but not often. Nine cases out of ten when a school loses severa] men by graduation, men who have been consistently in the line-up for two or three years, replac- ing them satisfactorily 1S exceedingly difficult and seldom s accomplished. While some of the schools next Fall probably - will Le weaker than this year, the stundard of South Atlantic foot ball generally is not likely to be lowered, because other schools should be correspondingly stronger. North Carolina will have & much better team next year than this, and so will North Carolina State ané Virginia Military Institute. Maryland and V. P. L also may be stronger, and it is rumored that Georgetown is likely to put out a more capable eleven in'1927. If Alabama goes to the West Coast to represent this section of the coun- try in the annual Tournament of Roses game at Pasadena; only after the Southern Conference suspends its rules by unanimous con- sent. ‘Any one school that might de- cide that it would not be a good thing to have Alabama go to the Coast could block the trip. Probably no school will do that, but undoubtedly there is a_distinct sentiment in some places against it. 1t is likely that the smallest number of foot ball plavers in years will re- celve their “M" at the University of Maryland when letters are awarded at the annual foot hall dinner. The new rule made last Spring for the award of letters provides that tg get a letter a man must have played in a full half of each of five conference games or games adjudged equivalent to conference contests. Not more than the regular eleven, with the possible exception of another one or two, have done that, and, consequent- Iy, they are all who will receive the insignia. Another change made in the award ing of letters was that no player will be given a letter for any season in which he fails to measure up to let- ter requirements, even it he has won his letter In a previous season. Heretofore, it has been customary to award letters to all members of the squad that had previously won letters whether or not they had played in ifficient games to get them in the son in question.
