Centre Biggest Man
On 7eam,' Says Eustis

Wesleyan on Saturday, and. although
the scrub team knew what play 20 ex-
pect, the varsity found little trouble
in gaining ground. Several Of the
complicated forward pass plays we're
clicked of without n Bit Of trouble.
The work was reasonably smooth, too,
although Eustis used every back OF
the squad az various times.
Howard Sam, the running back %
the team, broke loose n couple %
times for long runs, and Mackenzie,
the quarterback, cleared the end more
than once. Bernstein got into the
scrimmsge, and. although he has just
been dropped from the list OF cripples,
he tore into the work with Nigh. and
main. His interference was OF espe-
cislly high order. Sokolower. the
tackle, rejoined the squad yesterday
afternoon, and worked through the
scrimmage.
reddie Cam, the famous swimmer,
who wears the colors Of the New York
A. c. in the open competition, has
mstriculated az New York University,
and was out In toys yesterday for the
first time. Taddie played in the back
field for a while, and broke through
the line for some substantial gains.

prise 20 see Ted win . place beside his
big brother, Howard.

gramme OF the sailor boys whose ships
are now in the local navy yard.
Il was bitterly fought contest from
the outset. The lighter New York line
fought valiantly against the heavy
Texas backield, which invariably
ripped its way through Tor substantial
gains. However, there were ties when
the eleven of this city's ship rose 20
the occasion and presented an impene-
trable stone wall for d few minutes.
Weight soon told. and the Lone Star
State boys scored their touchdowns.
Old-Fashioned Tactics
Old-fashioned football prevailed. with
TeXas interrupting the monotony on
three occasions with attempts al for
ward passes, only one of which was
successful for a I5-yard gain. New
York rallied for a few moments in the
second and third quarters, but at all
other times it was fighting doggedly
TO force its rival out of its territory.
Joys, Aiken and Billings and Brown,
the Texas backheld, proved a brilliant

Joys and Aiken picked holes in the
opposing line for substantial gains.
and it always required two or more
tacklers TO bring them to earth.
Brown, an Annapolis graduate of the
class OF IS, handled his team well,
mixing up his plays and inserting sew
eral trick formations. Ralston, an
other Annapolis man; kellogg and
Tormey were always in the thick OF
the fight for New York.
The Texas combination made its su-
perior strength manifest in the open
ing quarter. Receiving the kickoff. 1t

New York retrieved the ball on the

N. Y. u. Coach Plans to
Move Bernstein From
Backfield to Line
BY FRANK O'NEILL

Football fans and football coaches
rarely agree on the value Of plays and
players, and the value Of men 70 their
teams.
The half back who runs eighty yards
for a touchdown is hailed, while the
line man who made the opening, the
back who picked OF the last tackler
are forgotten. Perhaps 90 per cent Of
the student body az New York Uni
versity believes that Captain Rube
Bernstein is Of greatest value TO his
team as a backfeld man, but Dick
Eustis, the head coach, is not sure and
is seriously considering moving Bern
stein up 20 the line, and playing him
at centre.
az believe that centre is the most i'm
portant position on a football team,
under the present day rules" said
Eustis. They can talk about bad gem
eralship losing football games, dwell
upon the mistakes Of the quarterback,
but fumbles resulting from poor pass
ing from the centre man is the cause
OF much woe in college football. ! be-
lieve in taking the best defensive man
on the squad, no matter what his prevl-
Gus position might have been, and plac-
ing him over the bail. There he can
range about, and make twice the num-
Der of plays that any other man on
the team can make.
Long Signal Drill
'T may not put Bernstein up IN the
line FOR some little time" said Eustis,
"but on the other hand l may make
the shift at once. IL will depend
largely upon conditions
