(This is the fourth of the Times
stories intended to instruct the
boys of Tacoma In the fundamen-
tails of football. The stories are
written by member of the Times
staff who has had a great deal of
experience as coach of youthful
football teams.-Editor.)
There is a great deal to ''han-
ding the ball." Players must
know how to throw 1t, how to
catch it, how to corral it when 1t
is bouncing about, and every boy
who wants to play should learn to
count, drop or place kick, besides
learning to run with the ball and
the formations that will help get
away with a run.
With the functions of the for
ward pass extended as they are
this year, the player who can
throw the ball accurately and far
will be in demand.
The best throwers either grasp
the ball with the fingers on the
lacing, with wrist and even the
thumb extending around its short
circumference, or else put one of
the points of the ball in the hand,
with the fingers extending along
it's "meridians of longitude. In
either event they throw the ball
SO 1t spins on Its long axis,
spiral" that sails true and is
more easily caught than the ball
that tum bles end over end.
In catching the ball take 1t with
arms and body. The best play
ers never try to handle thrown
or kicked ball with the hands.
Take the ball against your
"bread-basket" and hug 1t with
both arms.
Despite Sam Whites exploit, in
picking up fumbled ball and
streaking for the goal, it Is best
to FALL UPON loose ball. Then
you have it. Cover the ball, curl
ing arms and body around 1t. This
must be learned, that the fall may
not result In injury. Varsity
teams spend weeks at this part of
the game, so 1t Wilt pay boys to
follow suit.
Kicking is like pitching. It can
not be laugh by written words.
Better get someone who knows
how to act as Instructor, that the
, natural kicker or punter may
overcome his faults. Kicking is
partly a gift, partly the result of
long practice.
When running with the bali
from formation in scrimmage, the
most noticeable fault Is that the
back field does not start fast
enough. Those few yards between
the starting point and the line
are the most important. If stop
ped there, the play is loss. Yet
many back fields hesitate to see
what others are doing before they
get under way.
This Is fatal. II is a fault the
captain MUST overcome. He
must call for more speed, from
the first lineup until Thanksgiv-
ing.
