BARKER, iated Press Sports Writer, Assc EW YORK, December 12.— The thirty-second clash of Army and Navy in the Yankee Stadium today fur- | nished the East with a climactic finish for one of the most inter- esting foot ball seasons in recent years. Athletic relations severed four years ago on the question of eligi- | bility rules, the service academies | for the second year in a row were | matched in the interests of charity. A crowd of not less than 75,000 was | forecast for the game with gross re- | ceipts of about $400,000. Of this huge total about $350,000 was to go to un- employment relief agencies. The bal- ance of abouf $50,000 was to be used to cover expenses. OST of the 80,000 seats had been sold, but a few still were to be had at face value. A block of 3,000 went on sale at the stadium box office at 9 am. ‘The game itself, like all other Army- Navy struggles, loomed as a tight de- fensive battie. Army was the public choice, but the odds had shortened to 7 to 5 as a result of Navy's excellent showing against Penn and the un- doubted spirit of optimism that has prevailed in the Tars’ camp this week, In manpower, Army definitely seemed to have the advantage.

A tackler should never lower his head in making the tackle. Tackle with your head up. In fthis way you can also see what you are doing. “2. A ball carrier should never hit a line with lowered head. Keep the head up, which is easy to do even when running low. “3. No blocking should be at- tempted with head or neck. Use shoulders, hips and body. “So many players,” said Friedman, “do not know the proper way to block and tackle. Being unskilled, they leave themselves open to bad injuries. A skilled tackler or blocker, of course, may be injured, but he is much less likely to be hurt. You will notice that most of the fatal injuries have been in high school or other prep games where the lack of skill is more pronounced. The blocking and tackling in pro foot ball are more effective than on any college team, and serious injuries through a 20 or 22 game schedule are rare,” ASKED Friedman what he considered the best way to cut the casualty list. “It is necessary,” he said, “to have the player properly coached in all fundamentals.
