MAJORITY OF PLAYERS
DO NOT KNOW RULES
Mistakes Are Perpetrated in Almost
Every Contest but Pass Unnoticed.

There are many mistakes perpetrated
on the football field which escape the
eyes of the grand-stand critics. In almost
every game some terrible blunder Is
made. either by the players or officials
and nine times out of ten 1t passes un'
noticed. OF course, when a fragrant
bone" like that pulled by Princeton
when the kickoff was allowed to roll
around until a Yale man recovered the
ball, considerable comment follows, but
more serious things happen without any
one, not even the players, knowing about
them. Football Is an Intricate game and
II takes time to learn the finer points
The rules are difficult to understand, and
It is safe to say that 70 per cent of the
players today cannot pass an examina.
ton on them.
1t Is amazing when one finds that even
the players on the big teams do not
know the majority OF the penalties and
have weird ideas on what they should
be. One player this year insisted that
another cam be penalized one-half the
distance to the goal line when time was
taken out the fourth time in one half
and another-this one a captain-refused
to resume play because the referee would
not infiict a penalty for holding on q
ball was thrown instead of the line OF
rules.
Just why the players are not better
acquainted with the game they are play
ing Is a mystery. Many go through the
motions, but do not know why they run
out to block the end or half back OF
rush down the field to get the defensive
quarter back out Of the way. They dc
all of these things because they are told
to do them. They do not know the why's
or wherefores and could not explain II
questioned. High schools and small col
lege teams are offenders, but 1t doesn't
stop there. Even the big elevens are
guilty. as was seen at Princeton Satur-
day. The successful team is a team that
knows the game and the rules governinc
It.
Harvard always has had a heady
eleven. and each player is required to
learn the playing code from cover tc
cover. They know what will happen Il
the team is of side, II a man holds an
opponent while on the otfense, or II 8
player Is caught slugging. They study
the game as 1t should be studied and as
a result the other teams are outguessed
Pittsburgh, with Glenn Warner at the
helm, also follows this system, and the
players derive great benefits from it.
When they get into a contest they know
what they are doing. and this Inside
football we have read so much about "a

the example set by Pitt and Harvard.
better football will be played and fewer
mistakes will occur.

HERE Is THE LATEST:
ICE TENNIS TOURNEY

New York. Nov. zz-If the plans of
Fred B Alexander, Davis cup veteran
and lawn tennis player Of international
reputation, are successful some OF the
most prominent tennis players In the
East will be playing for the Ice tennis
championship within the next year.
The idea OF ice tennis itself is not a
new one. Five or six years ago Alex
ander conceived the scheme, and a match
was played on the ice, Benny Phillips,
Karl Behr, Alexander and other tennis
players taking part. Now the new sport
will be taken up again. and It is Alex
ander's intention to put on a doubles
match at the Ice Skating Palace, lslst
street and st. Nicholas avenue, about the
middle OF December. The exact date and
the players who will take part in the ex-
hihition doubles match will be announced
later.
Ice tennis, when played by such ex-
perts as Alexander and Phillips. is one
Of the most sensational sports in the
world. Not only must the competitor be
the most skilled of skaters to make the
quick starts and stops necessary, but he
must also be a tennis player Of the first
quality.
The court will be OF the regulation
kind. with the lines marked out on the
Ice in black paint. Alexander hopes this
special match may lead to an ice tennis
tournament this winter and he and N.
II. Greenhaum, manager OF the rink, are
working along those lines.

HILLTOP VARSITY IS
BEATEN BY RESERVES
Jimmy Sullivan's Scrubs Hand First
Team Setback at Hilltop.

There was some sridiron battle on the
Hilltop yesterday afternoon. Coach
Exendine is not taking any chances with
the Bucknell team. which plays the
Blue and Gray Saturday. and yesterday
sent the Georgetown squad through the
hardest practice held this fall.
Although the ffilltop eleven II q power
full combination, they showed signs of
weakness last Saturday against the
North Carolina Aggies, and Coach Exen-
dine put the candidates through q prac-
tice game yesterday which lasted one
hour. The second string eleven, under
the leadership Of Jimmy Sullivan, handed
q trimming to the varsity eleven by a 7
too count when Dutch" Leighty broke
through right tackle during the closing
minutes for q touchdown.
The Gilroy, Wall, McQuade and Ma
loney combination could do but little
with the defense presented by the second
stringers. while Supple, Leighty, o'Boyle
and J. Sullivan made consistent gains.
Coach Exendine Is puzzled In knowing
which combination of backs to start
against Bucknell Saturday.
The tickets for the George Washing
ton game on Thanksgiving Day were is
sued yesterday. Graduate Manager Cox
immediately obtained loo for the student
body at the Hilltop, while Manag ger
HodglSins, Of the Hatchetites, took the
same number for the students at the
downtown institute. The public sale of
tickets will be held at Spalding's, start
ing on Friday. Only 400 seats are on
sale for the public, and It will be q case

Day game has always drawn big crowds

these elevens.
Graduate Manager Cox yesterday wired
the authnFftiAa nf the Wa a-d
Lee University that he was willing to
have the post-season game played in
Washington. and there is no doubt now
that this contest will materialize and be
played at the Hilltop field on Saturday
