YALES SYSTEN S OPENTO ATTACK Past Season Analyzed and Criti- cized—Great Possibilities (Special to the Herald) New Haven, Nov. 26 — It is with &enuine sympathy for the individual members of the Yale team that the past season {is reviewed; for a squad which had the latent power that the big Blue had to turn out such a pathetic apology for a modern, up- to-date football machine, is start- ling. Individually Yale ranked with many of the great teams of the year. As a team Yale was a flop and Sat- urday's debacle in which Harvard rubbed their noses in the dust to the tune of 17 to 0 was the biggest fiop. Yale Is Not Modern . Yale lost not because Harvard was such an outstanding team, although it was a mighty fine outfit, but be- cause the blue eleven had nothing with which to fight except a will to do its best. It was not equipped for the modern game, It was like sending in a brigade of soldiers equipped with Civil War armament | against & World War brigade equip- | ped with the latest machine guns, | breach loading rifies, hand grenades, and always supported by heavy ar- tillery and air forces. For Yale has not developed with football. It still | plays the old fashioned type of game, plug, plug, plug at the line, and that't that. Then too, Yale's sys- tem of a one man carrier seems, to the wrater, to have proved its weak- ness. It leaves no doubt in the mind of the defense as to who is to take the ball. They know and it becomes | a battle o fthe ball carrier against not only the opposition but also his | own fatigue. Yale knows nothing of the lateral pass and hardly more about, the forward pass. Yale's for- ward passing is pathetic. The bac hurlg the ball far off into open terri- tory ‘Where the opposition has just as &ood a chance of grabbing the sphere as the Yale would-be re- ceiver. Few short, snappy passes. Better Attack Needed Obvijously, it is easy 1o sit back and criticize, but it does seem as| though Yals could turn out far bet- ter teams than she does with the material at hand to work with and the wealth behind with which to pay for instruction. A team should be versed in the game's fundamentals, equipped for plunging line play as are the Yule teams and in addition, provided with a diversified attack which includes short, accurate for- ward passcs, lateral passes, deceiv- ing behind-the-line formations and a system whereby there is a bit of confusion as to who is tQ carry the ball. A glance over past records proves this year to be one of the most disastrous. Since football has been played at Yale, the Blue had lost only 25 games up to this fall. | The adverse tally now is 29. Eliminating discussion as t& the benefits of a real forward passing at- tack, a lateral pass attack and a right smart backfield formation would give, it is interesting to spec- ulate on the possible improvement a change from the one man carrier might produce. Four-Man Threat Imagine a backfield which would atart the game with Decker at full- back, Garvey at one half and Loud at the other half. Either Garvey or Loud is a constant menace at line smashing or end runs and than Decker there probably is no better defensive back and interferer play- ing ball today. The game starts and then with Garvey and Loud alternat- ing at carrying the ball, with an oc- casional smash by Decker and then once in a while ons by the quarter to keep the opposition guessing just think what havoc could be played with an opponent! 8imply the men- tal doubt as to whether Garvey or Loud would take the ball would be &8 obstacle to the defense and add to that the possibility that Decker or the quarter might take it and this menace is enhanced. Added to that comes the fact that both Loud and Garvey would be able to stand the gaff longer since they would have momentary rests from ball carrying. Second string backs are always available at Yals and they could do their stuff when wanted. It would appear that the great- est fault at Yale is the Yale system. It appears to be a system that ig- nores the developments of the se: wons and insists on playing old fa joned football against the moderns —with disastrous results. Saturday’'s game against Harvard rhowed th! Yale attempted about 20 forward passes ang only two were mads good. So much for the for- ward passing. In the Army game it appears that Yale lost two good chances to score by insisting on us- ing their one-man attack. Garvey, it will be remembered, carried the ball down to near the Army goal. It was a real threat. With four downs to score Garvey was given the ball. He was stopped. Again he wa given the ball. Again he was stop- ped. By that time not only was Garvey a very weary young man, but LIBERAL ALLOWANCS POR YOUR 010 cLsa ?smmmmm”a the Army defense was just waiting for him. In brief, Garvey was more easily smothered because he was dead tired and because the Army knew he was to take the ball. At the close of the game Loud was in a similar position. He had banged the line time and again and worked the ball well down toward the Army goal. A touchdown was possible. Did Yale cross up the Army and be- fuddle them? No, Loud, Loud, Loud, and those who saw the game will re- member that when the final whistle blew Mr. Loud remained prone on the ground for a space. Not because he was hurt but because he was too darned tired to get up. What a difference a diversified attack might have made. BANDIT ARRESTED WHEN BRIDE MAKES COMPLAINT Admits_to Police 15 Taxicab Hold- Ups in New York City— Hurt in Chase. New York, Nov. 26 UP—A bride- groom of two weeks was arrested as a taxi bandit today after his bride had told police he was carrying pistol and she “didn’t like the looki ot it."” He was caught after a chase along Broadway by detectives to whom the wife had complained. He attempted to escape in a taxi he |commandegred but was brought down. by a shot from one of his pursuers. He suffered a superficial wound in the leg. The bridegroom, who said he was Robert Preston of San Francisco, confessed, police said, to 15 taxicab |holdups during the four weeks and a half he had been in town. In Preston’s pockets police found the following note: “To take effect 11:20. “I landed in New York four weeks and two days ago broke, but thanks |to the cab drivers in New York I |am going back home on a plush seat with plenty of dough. Before {dawn I'll be far away thanks to the | cab drivers and the New York cops. (Signed) “A GRATEFUL VISITOR The detectives said they had no information as to the holdups when they stopped him for questioning. Preston’s bride said she met him here for the first time and married {him an hour later. WOMEN WAGE WAR United to Defend Hames From Chinese Bandits. Hsuchow, China, Nov. 21 (UP)— Tired of having their homes pillaged and burned and their daughters car- ried off by bandit gangs, several hun- dred women of northern Kinangsu districts have declared war on ban- dits. Two foreign missionaries who ar- rived here recently report that the indignant. women and one of ¢ the | smaller bandit garigs clashed near Ko Lah Da village and that the bandits were routed, 15 of their number being killed, seven captured and several wounded. Nine of ‘the women attackers were either killed or wounded. As a result of the reign of ban- ditry and lawlessness in the north- ern districts of the province, troops under two generals have been order- ed to suppress the bandits. The | women bandit fighters are reported |to have declared that they have no faith in the soldiers, declaring that half of them are at heart bandits themselves and that they, the wom- en, will operate against the bandits independently of the soldiers.
