S INBITIOUS PLAYER ALY STANDS GRID 3rid Game Is One of Self- Sacrifice, According to Veteran Coach. BY WALTER TRUMBULL. NIELDING YOST, as usual, was talking foot ball. He said that he did not believe any man should play a game he loesn't like. There are plenty of ames to play and a contestant hould pick out the one which in- erests him. Otherwise, said Yost, 1e never will be much good at it.| The first thing Yost used to try to| lscover concerning a_man who came | or foot ball was whether he loved his ollege sand loved his game. Prepara- tion for any big athletic sport is arduous and often uninteresting. The man who | “1as no real ambition and determination | will not submit to the grind. He never | will be able to give the best he has. oot ball is & game where a man must | e willing_to play for the team: where | much of his best work is likely to go anrecognized by the spectators. But you can't fool the team. The | olayers know who opens the holes or 4oes the blocking: that some ball car- “fer may run to fame, while the crowd sheers the man it can see rather than the man or men who made the run Jossible. It is a game of real courage and self-sacrifice. i’ Yost also called attention to the slight margin between failure and suc- | cess. Just #s a base ball shortstop frequently misses a ball, because he cannot reach one more inch, so & forward pass goes wrong. A boy who is hurried by opponents may throw a ball 20, 30 or 40 yards and get it a | bit too high or too low. The wonder is that he so often throws it true. Many Factors May Mar. On a spot pass the recelver may stumble or start one step too slow. ‘There are many factors in a success- full pass. ~ If every man did his job perfectly on offense, each play would mean a teuchdown. It is the element of uncertainty and the vast possibility of mistake which make foot ball a thriling . ‘Then there is the young filmrbnck. He calls a play and it fails. In the stands spectators call him dumb; say that he should have signaled another play. Aside from the matter of second guessing, how do they know that the (x:t)l'bfl' play would have been success- ul? ‘That is. just about what Maj. Sasse said when I asked him why Army had not tried kick a field goal against Harvard. sdmitted that a field goal probably ld ‘have won the game. “But,” he/ghid, “there were 2 yards to 0 and we had & play which never had n sto] short of 3 yards. The uarter! _called ‘that play, and I k he ht. How could he as- sume that, for the first time, it would fail? It did fail, but how do we know that the for a field goal would not have failed? I still think the quarters back used good judgment.” thBOS do,é.r’:ul 1 dldn':.‘ kél‘o'llb(;\;l e 3-yard‘play, That e trouble in atterphing to criticize strategy from the standst~The man in the stands may t ‘he knows foot ball, but he cannot’ the peculiar set of cir- cumstans ch may actuate a quar- terback in, selection of pl Q .XKnows Weapons. ‘The qut ck knows his weapons.

A {ood general must be con- stantly all He must know which of his own ich of the are tiring, opponents ws fatigue. He must no- tice any nge in the other team's style of defense; must see whether any player is out of position, or judge vhether he can be lured out of po- sition. Foot ball is not just a game of brute force. Real fcot ball is played with the head as much as with the body. To trick a man out of position, to make him use his own strength and speed to defeat his own desire—that produces much more mental exhilara- tion than simply to knock a man over, It's a lot more fun. ‘The highest t:pe of foot ball is that in whith opposing players are kept constantly on their heels, in which they are off balance or headed in the ¢ wrong direction when the ball goes by. Once that happens, they might as well be in China for all the they are in stopping a play. Foot ball is a game of skill. speed and deception, more than & game of sheer strength and weight.

BY LAWRENCE PERRY. | EW YORK, November 10— | One of the pathstic inci- dents of the current foot Dball season was the malady which leveled the University of Vir- ginia squad. coaches and attendants the night before the game with Co- lumbia. The whole crowd went sick. This is not presented as an alibi for the 27-0 defeat which the Vir- ginlans sustained at the hands of Columbia. The Blue and White would have won, anyway, but prob- ably not by so huv{ a score, On the journey north, it is supposed, the ding Southerners ate some- thing disagreed with them, and the scenes in the Virginia quarters in this city the night before the game were more suggestive of a hos- pital than of a foot ball team pre- itself for an important game. plm’ Dawson and the assistant Princeton's present difficulties in foot ball The social arts at Charlottesville seem to be of paramount importance among the undergraduates, and that fine, swinging. swashbuckling, cava- lier spirit which is a tradition at Virginis is very markedly submerged. It is, at any rate, so far as foct ball is concerned. Pred Dawson, product of a rugged and high-spirited era in Princeton, has been bending every effort, em- ploying all his compelling magnetism to arouse in his foot ballers that ml:n which exists in all Virginians, t _spirit which may be dormant, but is ineradicable.

Telephone Manager Bobby Darley at Alexandria 1774, OUTH BEND, Ind, November 10.—1It is considered a bit un- ethical among foot ball coaches to paddle a fellow professor too severely when his tes is athwart the hypothetical barrel. Consequently Coach Heartley An- derson of Notre Dgme has been sub- jected to some criticiin, here and there, for permitting his Cossacks to slaughter Drake and Pennsyl- vania. A group that included James Harper, Notre Dame's director of athletics, was discussing the sub- Jject soon after the rout of Pennsyl- vania Saturday. Taking & couple of extra heavy at his big briar pipe, Harper ed and sald: “It was impossible 0 keep the score down today. You know, the boys still are fighting for places on the Notre Dame team and even the fourth stringers rcfuse to quit.” ‘That is quite true. There are 70 players on the Notre Dame squad and when a rank substitute is fortu- nate enough to break int» a game he plays for all he is worth to impress ihe coaches and win another chance, which is the way you would have it. Life on the Notre Dame squad is a constant, unending battle. It is & battle against Notre Dame's rivals and a battle for position on All on Irish Squad Even Notre Dame Fourth Stringers Fight to Show Up Ranking Players and Coaches. HABANELLO a cigar for the connoisseur Battlers the team. It never has been known that a Notre Dame player took the knocks that come with the grueling practices just for a sideline seat on the bench. That sort of fellow would not last long. ‘When the second team gets into a game, it is with the thought of show- ing up the regulars. The third- stringers want to outdo both the second and first elevens and by the time the fourth wave arrives on the fleld it wants to show up all the others and also the coaches. Since the rules do not permit the use of hobbles on halfbacks, Coach Anderson cannot very well prevent his young men from getting touch- downs, and there are at least 50 coaches in the land who would wil- lingly undergo a bit of criticism for the same results. ‘The 70 players on the Notre Dame varsity squad represent 50 cities, towns and hamlets and 18 States. Every trip to the university is a lesson in geography and introduces the visitor to some names.

You will readily see that ability or inability to boot the ball over the bar made a difference, on2 way or the other, to such teams as Amherst, Ursinus and Lebanon Valley in two games. That makes quite a difference in a season’s record. But let us consider more re- Here are some of the contests of last Saturday, where one point made all the difference.

Coaches contend that foot ball is so complicated today that there is not enough time to drill a kicker properly if you are using him for anything else, But to me it seems largely a matter of temperament. There have been men who never before attempted a gcal and yet have won games in their first active cffort in kicking the ball over the bar. OE of Princeton and Mallory of Yale | were men of this type. Princeton men used to claim that Poe made his kick against Yale by hitting the ball with his shin. He didn't éare how he got the leather over the bar. He merely knew that it had to be done, and it probably never occurred to him that he might fail. Such men as Moffat were able to kick goals on the run—and with either foot.
