Head Coach Williams, of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, has given the
FIRST intimation of the style of foot
ball the Quakers will use under the
new rules. Between the two twenty
five yard lines. where seven men are
required to be in the line of scrlm-
mage the kicking game is to be the
mainstay This will be backed up oy
the Princeton end-running and back
plunging game. Outside of the TWEEN
ty-ive yard lines mass formations,
with the tackles as the chief reliance,
will be depended upon to gain ground.
Williams has devoted most of his time
since the candidates have been at
Beach Haven, N. j., to the study OF
this style of play He believes the
kicking and taclles-back plays will net
the most games.
The Quakers are we'll supplied with
good kickers this year. Reynolds, Ben
nett, Smith and Corson are all doing
well at punting. The Quakers Will
have lots of weight in the line and
this will make the tackles-back plays
very effective.
After a thorough study of all the
possible combinations under the new
rules the coaches of odd Penn, He'd
ges and Williams, have decided to de-
velop both the kicking game and mass
formations.
The Pennsylvania schedule has been
arranged as follows:
sept 26-Dickinson at Philadelphia.
sept 30-F. and NJ al Philadelphia.
Oct. 3-Lehigh Al Philadelphia.
oet. I-Haverford. al Philadelphia.
