It is wise to shoot a few pla, against strong men when not in the | sooring zone, This enables the quarterback (o nuise along the | weak spots until he gets within | &coring territory, | If the weak epots of a strong team are played too heavily in mid- field, the opposing coach will | probably rush in a strong substitute | when you get within the scoring | zone. It s also pretty good judgment| to immediately shoot a play at an incoming substitute. Usually he is unsettled, also not properly warmed | up and an immediate gain through | him tends to put him and his team | further in the air, i When a quarterback is in doubt | as to the proper play to wuse, Ij would euggest that he either punt| or call for time out, o that he may | discuss the situation with some of | the other wise heads on his team. When a quarterback has in mind the possibllity of a punt, lie should never use the punter on the play just previous to the anticipated | kick. The punter should be fresh 10 do his best and get distance and | accuracy to his kick, ! The quarterback must always| know the downs and the distance to | be gained.

Or the five, Alabama and Georgia Tech seem to have the edge. Last year the Golden ‘fornado had a fine defensive team but not a strong offensive. This year Coach Alexander has combined both of- | fensive and defensive into a sterilng { organization. Doug Wycoff last year was the whole show for the Tech team, but this scason he las some excellent help in Connally and Barron, broth- cr of the famous “Red” Barron, who helped make Tech football history in other ycars, Alabama has returned its sterling composed of Pooly Hubert, all-southern back, Brown, Rosy Barnes and ldwell. The Alabamians received their greatest blow in the loss of line material. However, Alabama has given evi. dence in her early games that an- other great line, famous for block- ing and interference, is in the mak- ing and hopes for a second cham- plonship are rife. Tulane boasts no great individual stars but Coach O'Shaghnessey has a well-developed team, playing as a splendid unit.

And in its own select circle—the Big Ten— it stands out os an uggre- | gation most likely to cop the West- |ern Conference bunting. | True. the campaign has hardly (more than opened, and many startling upsets can occur Letween now and the end of the chage. But fat this writing the Maize and Riue, piloted by the crafty Yost, seems ta 'have the inside rail In its first two clashes of the sea- son the Wolverines surprised the football assemblage by counting 102 points, Michigan State going Jdows, -0, and Indiana, 63-0, The count || nst the Hoosiers was one of the largest volled up in a Big Ten game in quite a stretch. When Michigan lost such stars as | Steger, Slaughtcr, Steele, Marion and | Rockwell of the 1924 eleven, it waus generally econceded that Yost and (his alds would have a tough time molding together a winner this fall. | But frankly, it stacks up as the best (machine the Ann Arbor institutiin has had over a fairly long epun. When the training season com- menced a few weeks ago Michigan had no outstanding stars, with ths Ipossible exception of Capt. Bob Brown and Benny Freidman. And prospects, obviously, were anything but bright. But up from the 1924 frosh cleven |came as sensational a group of tots |as Yost has gazed upon in seasons, |Among others were a lean, lanky chap named Oosterbaan, all-state end at Muskegon (Mich.) high; Bo Molenda, fullback from Detroit Eastern; Gilbert, half from Kala- | mazoo, and Sammy Babeock, sterl- |Ing quarter back from Detroit Cen- tral, Yost tried them all out at the opening of the campaign and each has made good with a vengeanece, In fact, some of last year's reserves have been ousted by the yvoungsters, With the arrival of these sopho- mores, gridiron gloom has been re- placed by plenty of optimism. Michigan, by the way, needs a strong, firmldable eleven thig season, it it ever did For the 1925 schedule is one of the tughest the Michigan- ders have ever tackled, Outside of Michigan State and In- diana, which have already been dis- posed of, the Maize and Blue meets Wisconsin, Illinois, Navy Northwest- jern, Ohio Etate and Minnesota.

If the Yostmen can safely Ihurdle those two outrits, Michigan | cohorts opine their favorites will |grab the Big Ten title, Illinois—well, as far as the Zupp- ke platoon is concerned, it wouldn't be at all surprising if Yost handed his old rival some of the latter's own medicine this fall. Michigan is etill emarting under that overwhelming 39-14 defeat of 1924, when the great Grange made football history, and the Wolverines are out to at least partly avenge {that terrible mascare e, STRONG ON OFFENSE | Michigan may turn out another | roint-a-minute eleven this season, It has at least started in the right direction.
