JONES HAS WORKED
I. WONDERS AT YALE
Football Coach Has 1nstilled
Lot Of knowledge and
Spirit in Players.
READY FOR FINAL DRIVE
nv NELSON VI. ,"pu") WAY.

g ny NEI'SON VI. s"Tup WV. 1
tFau,ous Vale Football Player,
The task which confronts Tad Jones
his week is OF the most momentous
character. az It deals with a vital period
IN the development Of the Yale eleven, !
There II only one week left in the pre-
hminary season, and Jones will certainly
make the most of II. He has spent the
time TO date In getting the fundamentals
Of football drilled into his men along
With basic formations upon which he in ,
tends to develop his attack for the games
With Princeton and Harvard.
That Jones has the team thoroughly
schooled in the solid fundamentals OF
football was certainly brought out by
The game against Colgate. The men
showed that he had inspired confidence
IN them to such m extent that they can
stand up under fire.
In teaching the team the inside points ,
OF the game and the exact point for
which he Is striving Jones Is perhaps
confronted by a harder task than the
one which he has just accomplished.
Jones has In his minds eye the exact de-
tail OF every play and just how II
should look when executed. He is such
a capable man that he will be able to
give his men the same mental picture |
that he sees. and also inspire them with
the same enthusiasm which he feels.
svcceed.a ~ Ex.,c,
. when he was coach at Exeter Jones
Drought out the fact hat he knew foot
ball from the ground up. and. what Is
more. me could impart his knowledge to
some one else. A glance At the decisive
scores by which his teams beat Andover
will confirm this statement. for during his
stay at the New Hampshire prep
school Exeter won three successive years
by the score OF So to o. rs to I and 81
to z.
The interesting fact il that Cupid
Black was captain OF the team which
broke Andover's winning streak. Be-
fore Tad Jones took hold OF the Exeter
eleven 1t was faring as Yale has for the
last few years. No one believed tina he
could put Exeter on its feet In a single
year. but he certainly did. and followed
With such a brilliant career at Exeter.
