PORTS. FEW FREAK PLAYS VARY CONSERVATIVE OFFENSE Virginia Forward-Lateral for 105-Yard Touch- down Effort Against Navy Season’s Most Notable Departure From S| BY THEO B. SERVER. ARLY last April, after prac- tically all college foot ball squads had completed their Spring training, it was freely predicted that gridirons throughout the country this Fall would become the scenes of unusual developments 1n offensive play and that new meth- ©ds of ground-gaining, involving espe- cially lateral passes and combinations of laterals and forwards, would super- sede the old methods of power drives and ordinary throws. But any real indication that such predictions will come true has not yet been given. In games so far this season, with the exception of an occasional freak effort, the backbone of every offense has been powerful slashes outside and inside of tackle and forward passes based primarily on the experiences of | former years. | Until the rules are so radically changed—and it is unlikely they ever will be—that mass drives and varia- tions of the old-time split play are not possible, the fundamentals of ground gaining are certain to remain just what they are now and have been for many years. g The other type of play is most de- girable for the occasional chance that must be taken by one or the other contestant in every game, that pro- wides for the spectator moments of thrilling tenseness, but never will the chance effort be very much more than th;_z.m that are winning are teams that have the power to obliterate the | opposing first line of defense and the | backs sufficiently versatile and dexter- | ous to carry on beyond that. And these two factors must always go together | to achieve anything beyond the usual | in gridiron development. Either may occasionally attain distinction, but in the kind of competition that tries the real worth of men and ‘eams it takes both to get very many rungs up the ladder. Virginia’s Play Standout. DESPITE the power of lines and dexterious versatility of brilliant | backs, despite victories that come from such a combination, it often is the chance effort that catches the public eye and lives beyond all else in a par- ticular contest. Give just a thought, as a perfect example, to that Navy-Virginia game last week. Navy had the pewer, the offense, versatile backs, everything | necessary to enable it to win decisive- ly, but it was a chance effort by Vir- ginia that should cause that game to be remembered especially in foot ball | history. In the annals of the gridiron noth- Ing more spectacular has ever occur- red than that play on which Virginia gained 105 yards for touchdown. Driven back against its own goal line, Virginia lined up apparently to punt. Jts kicker, Martin, was standing five yards back of his own goal, ready, ap- parently, to boot the ball far down the field out of danger. The ball shot back from center to his hands. He held it momentarily, poised as if to punt, when suddenly traight Foot Ball. sible foresight when they are to play at Urbana. Yale’s Achievement Notable. YALE‘S comeback against Pennsyl- vania should be one of the notable achievements of the present season. Trailing, 6 to 20, in the sec- one period, the Blue went on such a scoring spree as is seen only once or twice in a decade in such a game. Long runs, long passes, in which efforts by individuals tran- scended, although helped by organized performance, enabled Yale to reach the Quakers’ goal line often enough to give it a 31-t0-20 triumph. HARVARD lost to Holy Cross under conditions which reflected on it nothing but credit. The Crimson played the kind of foot ball that loses | only when overpowered by superority in physical qualifications. RINCETON, with Williams in what was expected to be a br ather, found itself at the end of the first half with the score 7 to 7. Visions of disaster probably began to arise in the minds of the 18,000 or so per- sons who sat in the stands, but the Tiger rose to the occasion, scored in the third quarter to win by the margin of a touchdown and point after. WATCH for the Yale-Princeton game this year. It should be one of the outstanding contributions to grid- iron development of 1935. It should | present the acme in two completely | different types of offense and foot ball coaching. THE EVE RUNYAN COLLECTS 3100 GOLF PIZE Little P. G. A. Champ Wins Louisville Open With In- spired Round. By the Associated Press. OUISVILLE, Ky., October 14.— Paul Runyan, National P. G. A. champion, the little golfer with the big wallop and the deadly putter, added another thousand dol- lars to his bankroll today and also acquired another title—that of Louis- ville open golf champion. Touring the Audubon Country Club course yesterday in a fashion that left smoking fairways in his wake, the diminutive 27-year-old Arkansas farm boy, now professional at the Metrop- olis Club, White Plains, N. Y., over- hauled the early leader, Alvin Krueger of Beloit, Wis., yesterday to annex the Louisville title. | Blazing a trail of birdies on the | nine-hole home stretch, Runyan played inspired golf to wind up with a 72- | hole score of 283, one under par, after | starting the day's play two strokes behind Krueger. He canned four birdies on his final nine for a 33, three under par figures. Cooper Finishes Second. RUNYAN finished two strokes in front of his nearest competitor, Light Horse Harry Cooper of Chicago, and four in advance of Vic Ghezzi of Deal, N. J. Bill Kaiser of Louisville, Byron Nelson of Ridgewood, N. J.; Al Krueger, Saturday’s leader, and Frank | Walsh of Chicago finished in a tie for fourth, six strokes out of first place.

Had that play at Annapolis taken place in a game between Yale | and Princeton it would have made #foot ball history for the Nation, Navy Has Bothersome Move. N REGARD to that Navy-Virginia | game it is worth noting that Navy | used very successfully a combination | of forward-lateral passes not often seen. The forward pass over the line of scrimmage to a tall end who then laterals to a back who has swung wide and beyond the line of scrim- | mage has become so usual that one gees it in almost every contest, but Navy was effective with a decidedly unusual variation of that. Several times against Virginia, Navy had employed for substantial gains a | short forward pass from the deep back | to a short back behind the line of scrimmage, the pass being made on a | fake sweep around end. In the third quarter, though, when Navy felt it needed a few more points and was opening up everything it had it varied that by having the short back, after he had taken the forward from the deep back, return the ball by s lateral to the deep back who had continued his sweeping run to get outside of the defensive end. The play was begun and completed behind . the line of scrimmage and caught Virginia entirely unawares for 8 long gain. This play in itself may not be a consistent ground gainer for Navy, but it will serve to keep the secondary defense so worried that the backs never will close in as fast to | stop the first part of the play, the short shovel pass behind the line of scrimmage.

Neither Club Hot. BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. CHICAGO, October 14—In the 1935 world series there were no more than three players who, by any stretch of imagination, could be called great. ‘The Detroit Tigers in winning the American League championship were not a great team. They merely were the most consistent and determined in a league where the quality of play was considerably under par. Chicago was not a great team in | the series. It was great in marching 21 straight games to win the National | League pennant over the broken | Giants and the pitcher-shy Cardinals. In the world series the Cubs made | | too many mistakes to merit compari- of their league. | Charlie Gehringer, the Tiger second baseman, was the greatest player in the series. The silent Knight of Detroit is the greatest second base- | man since Eddie Collins and fu!ure‘ years may stamp him the greatest since Lajoie, the glamorous French- | | man of the American League’s juve- | nile years. Gehringer is a (remen-‘ dous hitter and a fielder who seldom makes mechanical mistakes and | hardly ever a mental blunder. Phleg- | matic of temperament, Gehringer is one player to whom the world series was just another mess of ball games. | Warneke Is Great Hurler. :YOU can put Lonnie Warneke, the tobacco “chawin’” clothes-line | from Arkansas, down as one of the | greatest pitchers ever to chuck a ball | in any world series. Warneke has just about as much stuff as Matthew- son, Brown, Donovan, the Deans or |any other pitcher you can recall.
