The above list shows few or The
games played this year in which the
smaller teams have been either VIC

does not show what a vast number
Of good games has been put up by
the smaller colleges in which they
have lost by q small margin from the
supposedly stronger opponents.
TO get down to the reasons why
thh condition under the new rules
should be true, we find that the two
main factors are these:
IN the frst place the open game

the smaller teams. because their
movements are apt to be watched by
scouts from other teams This nola-

has become almost universal among
tho biz colleges. That they DO not
use the plays against the small teams
which they intend to use against the
larger ones IL proved by the fact that
most teams have secret practice. Now

would be no use in having secre'

all they wanted in the game.
II n. therefore, evident that when
a hls team holds back It's best plays
when playing q small aggregation,
and the small bunch tries everything
In stock. the result must be that the
small team makes far better show
inx than under the old rules, when
simply straight football was used.
When It was simply a case OF crash

not TO use all their strength against

smaller games.
