Heisman Explains Twist Tackle
Pointers for Props by Coach
without any further argu-

come down without any further argu-
ment.A
If he runs with such big strides
that you can not get hold of the far
leg, the thing to do is still to put the
shoulder" to him and cut his legs out
from under him with your dive so
that he is bound to topple, anyway
WHILE it is perfectly legitimate to
w shoulder a threatening tackler
out of the way, or to block him Off
with your elbow even-provided you
have your hands clasped together and
keep your arms close to your chest
these are no longer recognized in col
lege football circles as being the best
way to interfere for your runner. You
may now and then successfully Craze
by tackler by thrusting your Shout
der at him, but you rarely put him
down on the turf by this maneuver,
and a man not down is man not dis
posed of. He will keep coming on
after your runner and will still get
him three times out of four.
The only way to dispose of tackler
is to put him completely out of that
particular scrimmage if you possibly
can, and this you can not even feel
hopeful about unless you put him on
the mat. Even then one is never sure.
Now, the best and surest way to
bring a tackler to the earth is to go
for his legs, in quite the same way
that you would go at him were he the
runner with the ball and you the
tackler. The only difference is that
when taCkling you are permitted the
use of your hands and arms with
which to grasp the runner, while in
interfering you dive for his legs and
cut them out from under him by the
impact of your shoulders or body, and
keep your hands and arms out of It,
AS you throw your body against his
legs and across his path you can use
your hands and arms by throwing
them out In front Of you to break the
force of your fall upon the ground.
If you will time the speed and di-
reCtion Of the tackler's approach cor
rectly and will leave your feet in a fiat
or horizontal dive at his knees while
he is under forward motion Cap
proaching) you will find it no trick
at all to knock his pins plumb away
from him and down he comes on top
of you. He has been so thoroughly
spilled" that he can not get up and
get after the runner again until the
gain has been made.
EITHER in tackling or interfering
IL a man should always remember
that it is legs that human beings run
with. and that if these useful mem
bers are taken away from them they
have to stop right where they are I'M
til they get them back or a roller
chair is brought them This diving
Interference has the added advantage
Of Delng so clean cut that the officials
never have any doubt as to the legiti-
macy of that particular piece Of in
reference, so one is much less apt to
be oenalized than under other meth
DDS of interfering.

Maroons Must Still
Defeat Wisconsin
For Western Title

Chicago has the best claim of any
of the teams to the Western foot
ball title, and there is but one eleven,
the University of Wisconsin, that
stands in her way to clear title,
made so by an unbroken record of
victories for the entire season.
Coach Stages warriors have played
consistently good football all season.
and after disposing of all the other
strong contenders has no one but
Wisconsin to fear. Wisconsin has
been playing better football of late,
though she was defeated earlier in the
season by some of the teams that
Chicago has put out of the running.
If Wisconsin should win, the West
ern title would be in a pretty muddle.

One way to make money on the

the labor throughout the year that

and the farm owner may always be

leisure time OF the farmer. Here are
some ways in which he can profit

The winter months afford opportu-
nifty for overhauling and repairing all
farm machinery. During the cultivat-
ing, sowing and harvesting seasons
whenever It is noticed that any part
OF a machine is needing repair, note
should be made Of the defect then in
winter the farmer should have II
comfortable room where all such part
can be made good A thorough clean

any machine reduces friction, saves
wear, and often discloses worn out
parts. II all farm machinery is care

the slack season. much annoyance

/ All practical and up-to date farmers
will look after the selection and

to DO planted next summer, during
the winter months. He who sends
early to his scotsman for samples
OF seeds. selects those free from
weed seeds and OF high terminating
power, and buys early, will often be
rewarded by greatly increased yields

seeds will be gladly furnished by the

the largest amount OF work connect
ed with IL will come In winter. The
feeding and care OF the dairy herd
will be the heaviest In winter. Early
lambs will make a busy time during
the latter part Of winter. The proper
housing of stock during the cold
and stormy months will add to the
work Of feeding as well as to the
quantity of manure, which should be
hauled upon the land practically as
fast as 1t is made. All OF these things
help to make profitable and busy
winter season.
Tho winter evenings furnish a good
time for laying out the future plans
for the farm, and for the architectur-
al study OF any farm buildings that
are to be constructed or remodeled.
Locating new buildings. laying out
new fences to be built, working out
rotations Of crops. planning tile
drains. studying labor-saving devices
for the housewife as well as for one

lens for the long evenings of winter.

the man who Is most careless about
