In watching a football game I strongly advise the spectator to culti- vate the habit of always knowing the down and distance, either by mem- ory or by reference to the score board which we locate when we first arrive at the field. In this way you can often an pate the nature of the ensuing play, Mspecially if you will apply the doc- trines which have been so,forcibly im- Pressed upon the quarterback.

The defensive left wing half- back is attempting to tackle the runner, but notice that the latter is warding off the impending tackle by the use of his left arm. In this case he was successful and the play gained twenty yards. This “straight arm’ used in con- junction with a dodge is the most effective method of eluding the defense in the open field.

By Neal O’Hara. Copyright, 1922 (New York ing World), by’ Press Publishing Company. NEW HAVEN, Conn., Oct. 14 ATIONAL bird of Iowa hovers N over Bowl to-day to show con- tempt for scarecrow in Yale football haberdashery. ‘They call these Towa footballers Hawkeyes. By the same recipe, Yale gridiron chorus is entitled to recognition as wooden nutmegs. But that has nothing to do with complete final score Prexy Harding has picked neither Yale nor Towa, which gives both fair chance to cop. ‘May best team win,” say Yale and Iowa boys. ‘May be ter team win," chirp Harvard lar- ynxes, which are strictly grammati- cal the full year round. To-day's brawl is direct rebuke to Kipling, who claimed East and West would never meet, and vice versa. It is the first time in perfectly matched string of blue moons that guys from wheat belt have parked under elm trees for purpose of conducting inter- state war dance. All ingredients of three-ring bull fight are present. ive thousand scalpers are in town to take care of New York trade. Concrete bowl has been dusted loose from peanut shells and gridiron sprinkled with chloride of lime. Everything strictly sanitary, from individual drinking cups on Yale bench to mouthpiece of press an- nouncer's magaphane. Towa will chuck 20,000 pounds of football tendons into this here spot Practically every voter in Hawkey caste makes coal scales vibrate at 200 pounds each.

The rearranged Blue backfield will consist of Neidlinger at quarter, Wight and Hass, halfbacks, and Mallory, fullback. Jordan was in uniform at yesterday's signal prac- tice, but it fs unlikely the Ell leader will get In action against the Western hamptons. Towa will outweigh Yale consid- erably on the rush line. The invad- ers also will be heavier and more ex- perienced In the backfield. With Howard Jones at the head the Towan squad arrived yesterday and immedi- ately worked out in the Bowl. ‘They are a husky lot. Four players on the first team tipped over 200 pounds. None of the others looked exactly delicate. Last year the Hawkeyes won every game and the Western Conference title. Victory was also scored over Notre Dame, ranked the leading eleven in the United States. From his cham- pionship team Howard Jones lost four notable stars, the two Devines, Beld- ing, a fine end and ‘Duke’ Slater, the giant Negro tackle, who more than any one else contributed to Iowa's success, Yale scouts, headed by MacAldrich, say the Westerners have replaced their losses with high+class material. eldinger, a giant from West Point, has taken Slater's place and ts expected to prove troublesome for the Blue runners. Hancock, a newcomer, is showing well at end while Parkin is developing nicely in Aubrey De- vine's position at quarterback. Parkin is the only newcomer in the visitors’ backfield. Miller and Shuttie- worth are veterans while Gordon Locke is considered the best line plunger in the Middle West, a human battering ram. Engeldinger is the only new man on the Hawkeye rush line, which witl outweigh Yale about five pounds per man. The invaders are understood to be ready to spring some wide open football on the Elis, and once within range will use the terrific rushes of Locke to put the ball over. Yule is taking this afternoon's en- counter only as one step in prepara- tion for the more important business of winning from Harvard next month. There is supposed to be a tacit under- standing between the Jones brothers that neither one would make special preparations for the intersectional game, but it's a certainty that Yale won't go to defeat without giving the Westerners a hectic time. Tad Jones says a defeat never helpa any team. This ts just the way Yale rooters view the game with Iowa. The Blue's development has been slow be- cause of injuries, but the nativ rather expect to see enough pow turned on this afternoon that will stop the Westerners. Here's the way Yale will take the fleld: Eddy, left end; Greene, left tackle; Cruikshank, left guard; Lan- dis, centre; Cross, right guard; Diller, right tackle; Hulman, right end; Neidlinger, quarterback; Wight and Haas, halfbacks; Mallory, fullback. The Biue rush line is formed of vet- erans with the exception of Greene who will take Miller's place. In the matter of substitutions the Bulldog will have a marked advantage over the Western champions. If the game ts decided without flukes Yale ought to win, but it will be # hard-fought battle.
