NEW PLAYS INVENTED
BY FOOTBALL COACHE.
Generals Of the Gridiron Game Ars
Springine 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-back kick and other things made
a new style Of defense necessary.
A few years ago the single.line de
fense with the half-back smashing and
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.
fected last year.
This season the coaches have de.
veloped many new plays which were
unheard of last year There are un.
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
short gain is necessary of two or
three yards, say, then the quarter.
back calls on the old reliable line
bucker, 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
rells, Acker, Eckersall, "Cooly" Clark
and Hare last year. These men were
called on time and again to kick the
ball out of danger when 1t was i'm
possible to regain the ten yards. The
backs must be defensive players. The
double-line 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. II
VIII undoubtedly develop more pow
erful defense, while, from the specta
tors point Of view, the game in Its
open form will be much more inter
estiny

LOWER rELEoRAPH RATES,

Hiph Tolls l1svs Kept Amsricens In
Last Place . Wire Users.
Although Americans write the great.
est number Of letters per capita. they
make the poorest showing In respect to
the use Of the telegraph wire. But the
entry Of new telegraph company into
the field with reduced rates and better
service will change oil this.
The average number Of kilograms q
year per capita is sos In New Zealand.
2.27 in Great Britain. 1.2S in France
and only 05 in the United States ow.
ing to the high rates prevailing here.
AS though to prove what the West
ern Union and the Postal could do with
modern methods Of transmitting tele-
grams. the Telepost company. formed
In New York to build rival telegraph
system. has published 6at rate for
kilograms Of 25 cents for twenty-five
words, without regard to distance, de-
livered by messenger; 20 cents for a
fifty word "telepost'' sent by wire, but
delivered at destination by mail. and 5
cents for each additional ten words on
both classes Of messages.
The Telepost company uses the De-
lany automatic system of transmitting
and receiving messages that has dem
onstrated speed OF 1000 words a
minute This enables the new compa-
ny to make a profit Of IA cents mes
sage even on the basis of its lower
charges or three and one-half times as
much as is earned by the old line COM
panies using manual transmission hav-
ing maximum speed of fifty words a
minute and an average speed Of little
more than one-fourth that figure. This
is what makes the average cost per
message to the Western Union 30
cents and leaves the company profit
Of only cents
The possibility Of giving such serv-
ice as the Telepost company promises
is due to the fact that using De-
lany's invention one wire will carry as
much business as seventeen operated
quadruplex, twenty-seven used duplex
or sixty-eight used simplex. To dupli-
cate the capacity Of the Telepost's New

by Its engineers to cost $1,373. 100.
would involve the Western Union In
an outlay of $7,6O9.55O. Sections of
this main line will soon be in opera

rapidly expanded by use Of independ-
ent telephone lines.
