BROWN SIZES UP TEAMS.
Harvard's Chief Scout Talks of Strength
Of Big Football Elevens.

Reggie Brown. Harvards chief of
scouts and past MASTER Of football
strategy, Is usually frank in his re-
marks concerning football. Here is
what he has 90 say:
yale bids fair to have the most pow
erful team she has had in years. with
q line averaging 1914 pounds.
AT Princeton only four regulars are
missing from the eleven this season.
ana their PLACES can he easily filed
from the freshman and scrub teams,
while at Cornell one more first string
man has been lust-namely, Gye-but
with Cornelrs big squad Of physiques
It should be as easy for Cornell to
make up vacancies in two teams as
the other colleges IN one
fright now it LOOKS as if Harvard
could not beat Cornell with her ma
terial but might with her coaching
system. Princeton ought To win from
Harvard on-the strength Of her expert
cnced men and Yale defeat Harvard
through the exceptional individuals she
has to mold into Il team.
yale may be handicapped bit
though, through the change in her sys-
TENS. AS the season progresses the
situation often changes through inju.
ries or for other reasons, and fort
night hence the Harvard position may
or may not improve"

The Bellows Falls high school football

COLLEGE BOYS
STILL RLUFFING
Touchdown Says Yale Is No Bet
ter than Year Ago - Time for
Hedging Before the Big Game.

Anyone who has followed football a few
years knows iuil well that it is the custom
Of the college boys who write for the
metropolitan press TO boost their college
teams, at least up to the time of the big
games. Then comes the tales of injuries
and the preliminary hedging if the sure
victory of a few weeks before should pan
cut to be an ignominious defeat. Condi-
tons have not changed in late years.
Therefore, when sporting writer of the
calibre of him who signs himself "Touch-
down comes out with the bald statement
that Yale is not bit better than the blue
team was year ago, it must be taken to
mean that Touchdown either does not
know whereof he writes or that the col
lege boys have been getting space with
the same old bluff
This writer goes into details and minces
matters not a bit. He says he knows
whereof he writes and some of his argu-
ments carry weight While Harvard has
no wonderful team this year there appears
to be reason to believe that Tad" Jones
has not vet shown symptoms of being a
second Walter Camp.

WARD ON THE STARTING LINE.

hundred in 20 seconds, but on several
occasions he has done it in 94-5 sec
UndS.
Ward possesses an almost perfect
gpinting style. Ills action is high. and
he gets an extraordinarily long stride,
averaging just u little under six feet
ten inches. When it is noted that Roy
Morse Of the Salem Crescents, former
national 30 champion, strides not more
than five feet six inches, while Alvah
II. Meyer, who held both sprinting
titles several years back, does not av-
eragc quite five feet, it is obvious that
Ward has Il wonderful natural advan-
tage over the other two. one would
think that Ward, because of his long
stride, would be slow in striking away
from the mark. but such is not the
case, He gets away fast and makes
his run from the crack of the gun.
In another year Ward. who is just
ont of his teens, should be running
close to record figures every time he
starts. Ward has gone to Sweden with
Meredith, Simpson. Loomis and Kelly

DONOVAN TO. RUN YANKEES.
Club Owners Well Satisfied with SmiI
ing Bills Work.

William F. Donovan, the Moses who
led the Yankees out of the wilderness of
the second division last season, will
again lead the Rupert and Huston en-
try into the American league cam
owner of the club, announced last night
that Col. Rupert and he have re-en-
gagged Smiling Bill to run the club for
his third season.
Both Rupert and Huston were well
satisfied with Donovan s work in the re-
cent campaign and sincerely believe
that had Donovan been able to play his
regular lineup all season the Yankees
instead of the Red Sox would now be
world s champions.
New York fans were heartily in favor
of Donovan S retention, as no manager
i'll the history of the game ever ran into
the flock of injuries that reduced Wild
Bill s speed boys to a team Of second
stringers and young pitchers. Even af
ter the club lost Maisel and Gilhooly
the club might have Won had Baker
Magee and High been able to play anC
Caldwell kept in condition.
Most baseball experts are convinced
that Donovan will have his big chance

CORNELL LOOKS TO SHIVERlCK
Big Halfbsek Expected to Fill Shoes of
the Great Barrett

Cornell Is optimistic concerning her
football outlook. despite the fact that
she faces the season minus the scrv-
ices Of Charley Barrett, the greatest
star in her history. The chief reason
for the optimism ~ lthRa is the won
dcrful form shown by Fritz Shickerick
Shiyerick Is the young man who
stepped into the breach in the Harvard
game last fall when Barrett was in
jured anu played the foremost part In
COrncll's glorious victory over laugh

THE MULTIPLE KICK.
George Foster Sanford Evolves An
other Wrinkle

George Foster Sanford. football sur
geon and inventive genius of the grid
non, has evolved another wrinkle. 1t
is dubbed by the him the multiple kick,
but il ism t anything like that It's
only one kick, but the play requires the
services Of the centre, the quarterback
and the other three backs, so that the
multiple part refers to the handling of
the pigskin. 1t S a trick that may revo-
lutionize the kicking feature of foot
ball, but as yet it is rather a hazar-
dous stunt at best, and in some quarters
might be classed in the category of
- shocstring' plays.
Here s how it works-when it does
work. From kick formation the half
backs lie down on the ground, facing
each other. Right above them stands
the quarterback, ready to receive the
ball from the centre. Several PAGES he
hind the quarterback is the fullback.
The pass is made, the quarterback
places the ball III the hands of the half
backs, they put III position for the
! kick and the fullback proceeds to boot
the pigskin into the next county.
! 1t is very easy to see how far reach
1 ing the effects of this play might be
and what a tremendous bearing it has
on Punting and the kicking of place
ment goals. Rutgers has worked the
play for kicks which went 20 yards, par.
! ticularlv in the tie with Washington
and Lee. Bill Quigley of Pennsylvania
! has kicked several goals from the 81
yard mark with the aid of the multiple
i play, and Derr, Light and Berry have
! had almost equal success.
/ The play requires stonewall line and
the development of first class line mcr
! is sort OF second nature with Sanford
lie may show, through his Rutgers
team, that his newest play is the rea
/ goods. 1t was Sanford who evolved the
legal mass play, which the rules com
mittee recently had to declare in keep
ing with the spirit and the letter of the
code. The new kicking play ON papel
sounds like a remarkable stunt and i
may i'll reality prove to be one.
