NEW PLAYS INVENTED
BY FOOTBALL COACHES
Generals of the Gridiron Game Are
Sprngins Many Tricks
This Season.

The football season of 1906 marked
the change in style of the play used
by different teams. The game was
new to coaches and players alike.
The forward pass, the improved quar-.
ter-baCll kick and other things made
a new style of defense necessary.
A few years ago the single-linc de.
Tense with the half,back smashing ana
the end tackling, was in general use
In 1904 the double-line defense was
introduced, In this style the ends
smash the opponents interference
while the backs, who stand five yards
to the rear of the line of scrimmage,
come up quick and tackle the runner.
This was the style that was fully per-
tected last year
This season the coaches have de
veloped many new plays which were
unheard of last year. There are I'M
limited possibilities in the use of the
forward pass, while the quarter back
Kick is always dangerous. VIII the
present style Of defense in general
use by teams in the west stop these
new plays?
one season under the new rules
barely opened the door for new PLAYS
that were brought forth. The season
Of 1907 will go down in football his
tory as season of development of
the new game.
DO not think because the new game
Is more open that the day of the line
bucker is past. 1t is not. Whenever
a short gain is necessary of two or
three yards, say, then the quarter,
back calls on the old reliable line
buckcr, and takes no chance on run
ming the end, A kicker who is quick
and sure is in greater demand this
season than ever.
This was shown by the work of Gar
rclls, Acker, Eckersall, Cody" Clark
and Hare last year. These men were
called on time and again to kick the
bail out of danger when II was i'm
possible to regain the ten yards. The
backs must be defensive players. The
doubIe-ljne defense demands it. This
was shown in 1906 by the work of
such men as Schuknecht, of Mime.
sofa, and Steffen, of Chicago These
players were not only good on offense,
but powerful on defense.
The season Of 1907 will bring forth
many new and startling plays. 1t
will undoubtedly develop a more DOW
crtul defense, while from tho e,,oo+o
tor S point Of view, the game in its
open form will be much more inter.

LUNDGREN MOST EFFECTIVE

In the &c full games which Lund-

game, were scored off his delivery.
Only 1923 hits We're made against the
scandinavian, or a fraction under five
per game. This record is, perhaps, the
most remarkable made in recent years.
The giant Overall ranked next to
Lundgren in effectiveness, with Nor
decai Brown but a few points below.

"Matty" was one of the best and most

with fading team behind him.
