Ww, EDNESD: AY, NOV EMBER 2 , 1940 SOFTBALL More Than 40 Games Ending 7-6 Show Need For Kick Specialists LOOPS at Outstanding Examoles OF “DOG [NIVERSITY” TEACHES Difference One Point Makes Listed By AP Writer By SAM JACKSON AP Feature Service Writer SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 20.— The number of games this season ‘won by a,single point has stirred some discussion here as to whether the success of the con- version kick after a touchdown really decides which is the better team. “If often gives a decidedly ferior team the victory”, sa one side. “Nonsense, the score story”, says the other. The outstanding example 1940 doubtless is the Minnesota- Michigan game. The Gophers beat their great rivals and at the same time, by all the dope, insur- ed their Big Nine championship— and all by one point on Joe Mer- nik’s placement kick. Money On Foot The combination of money and glory depending on a single con- version kick is best illustrated by the Stariford-Santa Clara game. Stanford is a candidate for the Rose Bowl assignment, worth about $100,000 to each competing school. Santa Clara was promi- nently mentioned for the Cotton Bowl, which pays a smaller but very tidy sum. It was the hardest struggle to cate for either team, and when the final gun sounded the teams were all even—except that Stan- ford’s Frankie Albert had kicked an extra point More than two- enough importan scores carried on the have lost 7-to-6 des ons. Among them are Harvard, Maine, Rut- gers, Wisconsin, Drake, Connecti- cut and Vanderbilt. Philosophic about the matter is Nerman “Red” Strader, St. Mary’s new coach, who had an agreeable season rudely inter- Tupted when Duquesne clipped the Gaels 7 to 6. ‘It’s Still OK’ I know a lot of people are ainst the extra point”, he says, “but 1 think it's all right. “Eliminate the kick after touch- down and it would be only a question of time until place kick- ing would be eliminated too. And I think the field goal is a color- ful event that the game needs. I say let the score tell the story Strader admits that a boy who in- tells the of ‘ore colleges of > to have their press wires has lost a game failing to put his place kick over the bar prob- ably feels “pretty blue inside”. “But we forget him an in- dividual”, says. “Everybody fails on different plays. It’s just the team that’s lost—not the Be For coaches with trouble with conversions Strader points out a rule not often put into practice. When, after a touchdow: the ball is placed on the 2-yard line, the team has the option of trying for the extra point by rushing or passing i over the goal line.

AP Feature Service Writer LACOMBE, La, Nov. 20—An instructor who steps on his stu- dents’: toes and mixes tender ca- % with stones and shotguns is hard at work near here with his usual large class. He is Mick Helm, owner and instructor at a “bird dog univer- sity”. He will train a dog to hunt, be decent in the house, stop barking, and work’ on the honor system. His “university” is deep im the woods two miles from Lacombe. The classroom is his ‘backyard. The campus is a vast stretch of pin woods and weedy fields. Helm teaches all day long to get his charges in readiness for opening of the quail season De- cember 1. He takes all kinds of dogs but his specialty is bird dogs: setters, spaniels, and retrievers. These are given two three-month cours- és; «the ‘first for just. before the season, the; second at the same time: “the following year.! 4 > - Gets Diploma” ~~ At the end of the’second semes- ter, before the proud master, Helm hands the animal,a diplo- ma e of Helm’s training tips Ycu must never lose your temper with a deg you are train- ing even if he bites you. It’s all right to hit him with a stick or peg stones at him to keep him under control but always caress him when he does the right thing “Don’t raise your voice when he does the wrong thing. If you get excited, the dog knows it To train him to do one thing, use one word or some_ simple phrase”. To break a dog of the barking habit, Helm says, dash a glass of water in his face as many times three -cmonths{ as necessary. To housebreak a dog, catch him in the act of com- mitting a nuisance—not after- wards—and drive him outdoors with a slap for good measure. Helm has a careful routine for ' training bird dogs. Training de- tails start with having the owner leave quietly so that the new stu- dent will not grieve. Then Helm spends an entire day feeding and! petting the dog to gain his confi- denee. ‘ Short Hunts First The dog is first taken on short training hunts, taught to fetch and to drop, on command, what he has brought. That’s where the stepping on toes come in—to get the dog to open his mouth sud- denly. Then the dog is taught to look back at the sound of a whis-‘ tle while hunting and move in the direction the hunter indi- cates. Dogs are on the end of a long rope for such training and_ if, when the rope is taken off, the dog disobeys and runs off, he goes back:pn_ the rope. Next time, Helmghides along the runaway route and peppers the misbehav- ing animal with pellets from a slingshot. Shotguns are not fired close to the animals at first. Dogs are brought closer and closer to the gun until, finally. they will stand at point beside the gun. To re- assure dogs made timid by the sound of a shotgun blast too close to them, Helm first uses cap pis- tols. After each shot he caresses the dog, working on up the fire- arm line with pistols, rifles, and shotguns again. The “honor system” must be taught so that dogs who come upon another dog already point- ing will not jealously step up and rout the birds before the hunter shows up. OLD ‘77. IS ROLLING AGAIN | THIS TIME.ON A VOL JERSEY concus T@ BATTLE By DON WHITEHEAD, AP Feature Service Writer KNOXVILLE. Tenn., Nov. 20. —Red Grange wouid be right proud if he could see the way Tennessee’s Bob Foxx carries his old number “77” around on gridirons of Dixie. The sturdy’ blond has been a key man im the Volunteers’ dev- astating teams for three years and he’s even hotter this season as the Vols smash along in quest of a third consecutive untied, un- defeated season. Old “Double X-Double 7” is the football coach’s dream player, a team man who can do every- thing and do it well. During his three years at Ten- nessee he has averaged almost seven yards each time he has carried the ball; his punts aver- age around 40 yards and that in- cludes those out-of-bound boots in the coffin corner; He’s a better than average pasSer, a goottere- ceiver,s a pile-driving bl@gker, and one‘of the best defensive backs in Southern football. That's quite a buildup for one lad—but most experts . think about. him as does Red Sanders, now coach at Vanderbilt, who said last year that “Foxx is the best wingback I ever saw”. Home Town Boy The handsome youth is a prod- uct of Knoxville High School He broke into the Tennes lineup in 1938 as a sophomore by ousting two veterans, and he’s been there ever since. It was Foxx who made Ten- nessee’s reverse play famous. Major Bob Neyland had never had anyone who could make the reverse click until Foxx took over the wingback duties. And then the fans began to watch for the 185-pound lad to ea. Ai 0 makes a living out of pitching horseshoes, says there's mre tor throwing ringers than just tossing the shoes. “You have to keep in good phy ysical condition all the time”, says the young man who claims an ecto hold on the world’s cham- pionship. He exercises like an athlete for | three weeks before tournaments, pitching about 300 shoes a day. In a tournament he may pitch as many as 1,000. Ted says he averages, the year around, about 85 percent ringers for all the shoes he tosses in tour- naments and exhibitions. An 86 percent mark is the best for any player in a whole round of tour- nament play. “It’s a lot of fun”, Allen says. “Tm on the read eight to ten months of the year and besides tournsments, where prizes aren't the} ‘wary of that dangerous reverse start on the reverse. As a sopho- more, he carried the ball 33 times | on reverse plays only and aver- aged 6.3 yards each time. Tennessee's opposition was the next year—but they couldn't stop Foxx. He ran with the ball 35 times and hit an average of 8.2 per try while scoring 45 points to lead his mates in scor- ing. Works At Tailback Neyland experimented _ with Foxx this year at the tailback position and he continued his sparkling play. Then Bob And- ridge, regular wingback, was in- jured and Neyland shifted Foxx back to the wing against Louisi- ana State. The old position fit him like a glove. He seared Tennessee’s first touchdown, catching two passes ‘enroute. He helped.set up an- otherand. then he passed to End Jimmy Coleman for a third. Off the gridiron, Foxx is a nat- ty dresser but shy. He is a radio fan and-carries a portable radio with him on all the Vols’ out-of- town trips. Today’ s Horoscope Today’s intellect is rather sub- tle in quality and perhaps in- clined to be ascetic. The entire spirit is luminous, strong and faithful, possibly turning toward the study of philosophy, religion, or kindred subjects, and probably teaching and writing them.
