Of Dodging Him

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-While TAX
ing light exercise at the new Polo
Athletic Association in Harlem, Carl
Morris, the Oklahoma giant who, in
the opinion of many ring followers,
is the best white heavyweight in the
world, paid his respects to Jess Will
lard and Gunboat Smith, with whom
he has been trying to arrange bouts.
IF Willard signs articles to box
me in the Garden on December 2, |
will be very much surprised, said
Morris to-day. Il don't believe he
wants any of my game, for he has
known me for years when we were
both in Oklahoma. If he gets into
the ring with me, just say that there
isn't the slightest doubt in my mind

Heisman Explains Twist Tackle
Pointers for Props by Coach

come down without any further argu-
ment.
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
Wv 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 a tackler by thrusting your shoul-
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 a 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
1 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 mis- 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
| 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 zap
! proaching) you will find ii no trick
at all to knock his pins plumb away
from him and down he comes on tor
! 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.
I l. ITHER in lacking or interfering
L. 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 un-
J til they get them back or a roller
chair is brought them. This diving
! interference has the added advantage
Of being 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 &c
be penalized than under Other -seth.

By j. w. Heisman.

T is a deal easier, in teaching the
! principles of football, to eXpound
them to a set of players than 1t
is TOT get them to do, or try to do the
thing the way it is told. This Is espe-
cially true with reference to tackling,
and to twist tackling in particular
This is a most spectacular tackle,
and it looks dangerous, which Is prop
ably the reason it is diflicHlt to get
players to undertake it in a match
game But if they would only try IL
they would soon find that they are
no more liable to get hurt using TINS
tackle than any other. 1t is performed
IS follows: 40,
If Won are located a little to the
side of an oncoming runner, say to
his right, you aim for the spot where
YOU would shave right in front OF hlm

and YOU run for that spot full TIT.
lust before you get there you leave
vour feet and, with your body
stretched out parallel to the ground
(vour right side turned DOWN, you
shoot yourself squarely across his
path. with your body momentarily
suspended in air and at right angles
to his. Your chest should be turned
suuarely into his thighs, ana as your
head shoots beyond him you thrust
out your arms and catch them around
his thighs If the clutch Is firm your
body impetus will twirl him around
contrariWise to the hands of a clock
Now, if the tackler did not have q
firm hold on the legs of the runner, 81
course his dive would carry him away
beyond the runner and he would fal
fiat on the ground. But his clutch or
the legs of the runner as he goes by
saves him from a fall The runner
will naturally. endeavor to retain his
upright position, and will come dowT

THIS is a hard tackle to learn to eX'

Jackets End Season
With Clemson Team
Thanksgiving Day

The Clemson Tigers will be the
Jackets opponents on Thanksgiving
Day in their annual battle. the last
game of the season for both teams.
Clemson has come forward with
rapid strides during the last few
weeks. Football experts say they are
advancing more rapidly than any
eleven in the South, and by Turkey
day will be more formidable than at
any time this season.
Clemson attended the Tech Georgia
game. The coaches saw the game
from the grandstand, and of what
Tech used in this game they took
copious notes.
Tech was unable to score on Geor-
gia, while Clemson rolled up Is points.

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 a 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 pretty muddle.

Shortly Flanagan returned. He had
half dozen fresh corn-cob pipes and

Ryanne lighted up, about as near con-

Fortune looked Mortified.

No, Fortune did not possess that du-

Flanagan advised.
They built up the fire and sat round
it costly. They were all more or less

she had been a captive Of Mahomed,
she had forced the thought from her
mind; but now it came back with
full measure Of misery. Never, never
would she return to Mentone, not even
for the things that were rightfully
hers. Where would she go and what
would she do? She was without money
and the only thing she possessed of
value was the Soudanese trinket Ry-
anne had forced upon her that day
in the bazaars. She heard the men
talking and laughing, but without
sensing. No, she could not accept
charity. She must fight out her battle
ell alone. The child of thief:
for never would her clear mind accept
smuggling as other than tl1ieving.
Neither could she accept pity;
and she stole a glance at George, as
he blew clouds of smoke luxuriantly
from his mouth and nose, his eyes
half closed in ecstasy. How little 1t
took to comfort a man!
Ryanne suddenly lowered his pipe
and smote his thigh. HE'LL" he NUT

peated assaults it at length conquered
her. 1t was the child.
Did she possess, after ALL latent
sense of motherhood, and was 1t stir
ring to establish itself? She really
did not know. Was it not fear and
doubt rather than motherly instinct?
She paused in front of the mirror, but
the glass solved only externals. She
could not see her soul there in the
reflection; she saw only the abundant
gifts of nature, splendid, dOuble-hand'
ed, prodigal. And in contemplating
that reflection, she forgot for a space
what she was seeking. But that child!
From whom did she inherit her Pc
culiar ideas of life? From some Purt
tan ancestor of her fathers; certainly
not from her side. She had never
bothered her head about Fortune, save
to house and cIothe her. till the past
forty-eight hours. And now it was too
