The dancing backdeld has more thee
ssvteri.v Of the "Wbirlwind Millers"
che, the grace Of the Castles. The
s~,v will substautiGte that. Some
zines Quarterback Allison gave three
sips like this. Hip! Hip, Hip!"
which was q fine way to greet a party
Of soldiers.
We came 20 place the greatest reh-
snce in the second hip, for the ball was
usually passed then. The first hip
seemingly was the first hip, and that
vas an that could be said for it, while
the thiri was a more or less superhu-
ans hip. There were times when
Quarterback Allison put in a re-
rretta6.e fourth, and even fifth, hip.
This should be penalized unless the
iulback is provided with a bass drum.
Method in II All
There was, however, a method in
Metre Danes hipness. Quarterback Al
nson did not give two hips, and some
times three, for the mere pleasure Of
hipping. He could hip other places
thar on a West Point gridiron if he is
an incorrigible hipper. Nor was the
bipful attack of the Hoosiers aimed TO
5isorcarize the soldiers by making
them believe they were at drill.
Down or the fence near the end OF
the game we were permitted to view
he advantages Of the hip, hip and the
accomrany.rg tango. Quarterback Al
Eson allied three numbers and then
said like that-and as he
suoke the magic hip the entire Notre
Dame backfeld executed the first three
steps OF the Texas Tommy and assumed
tandem and other positions. This
movemer. back Of the line had the eff
feet Of throwing the heavy Army for
wards of their balance and prleking
their curiosity, especially as Quarter
back Allison usually did full pivot
OF grapevine on the first hip.
Occasionally a West Point forward
would forget himself and peek over the
line. thereby violating the first thlr-
Teen bylaws Of the International Union
OF L.nemeu, which stlpulate that for
ward nose shall never be more than

re have been speaking merely Of
the first p. While the first nip was
far enough, as hips 90, it did not ad-
vance the ball and was comparatively
i-nocuous. 10 was the second hip, Ike
this. ~Eipi" that was dangerous.
There was a world Of significance IN
!. 70 any one who has made study OF

The first was 2 good-natured, enter .

.oa.d always be relied upon to start
something. No sooner did Quarterback
Allison sound 40. hip than Rydzew-
ski passed the ball through the three
syllables Of MS surname into the hands
OF Allison or some accessory hefore
the h.0 and Notre Dame would be on.
Entire Line Keeling
But the Army would be further of.
When We saw them the entire line
vas SO full Of hips that II was Keeling.
