Wesleyan Needs Fricke, Middletown, Oct. 23.~Dr, Edgar Fauver went over his Wesleyan charges carefully yesterday and found the only serious injuries resulting from the Tufts game was a badly sprained foot suffered by Al Fricke, the quarterback.

Fricke will not be able to play against Massachusetts Aggies on Saturday and may not get into the Amherst or Willams games. His loss will be se- verely felt for he was strong in the back field and was doing the best punting for Wesleyan.

Zuppke, football eoach, University of Illinois; author of “TI"ootball Technique and Tactics.” If a coach is fortunate enough to have two men who can throw, he may devise a scheme of attack for the purpose of employing both in such a way as to deceive the defense and to destroy their intended concentra- tion on the one individual. For example, one thrower can line up somewhere six yards back of the center, while the other lines up from 10 to 12 yards directly back of the center. Since the can pass to or the other for the purpose of throw- ing a pass, the defense, although knowing a forward pass is contem plated, cannot concentrate on man, and this produces hesitation, which assures the thrower more time in executing the pass. No. 1 back may throw a pa center one one from point A or ma A backward or la pa ° 0. 2 Lael;, who mas osportunity permits. throw or The diagram shows only the run, but passes may be executed from points A and B. Several touchdowns were scored in the western conference during the season of 1922 by using the latter part of this play. Let me add this caution: Special emphasis should be placed on the protection of the play.

New York, Oct. 23.—Harvard and 'Dm-lmoulh are holding the attention of the football world this week while preparing for their battle at Cam- bridge next Saturday. The dope is divided, and the fans are going color blind seeing first red and then green. Dartmouth is slightly the favorite at the moment, many be- lleving that Harvard will suffer a fate, similar to that of Princeton last week when the Tiger lost to Notre Dame. The program for Saturday is a big one, with many all star performances scheduled. Princeton and the Navy, Yale and Brown, Penn State and West Virginia, Pennsylvania and Co- lumbia are among the headliners. The prophets working out Har= vard-Dartmouth game have rather a hard job, as the two outfits have met but once in ten years. That was last year, when the Crimson won, 12 to 3. The last previous time Dartmouth scored on Harvard was in 1911, when Harvard won, 5 to 3.
