think the idea frst originated in
the brain OF Morley. a former Colum'
bia halfback, then coaching its team.
We kicked-off to this eleven at the
start and when the Columbia eleven
ran back and gathered in front OF its
half who caught the ball and then
ran interference for him we en-
countered aanew idea in football, diff
ficdlt to cope with and OF such value
that the frst kickoff OF that game
was brought back to midheld. Since
then the Morley idea. with slight
changes, has been adopted by most
football teams.
Call Ii Just Luck
As is usual in such cases the spec
tator and the public is rather in
clined 60 call such a play 'luck." As
a matter OF fact, running interference
on a return kickoff or at any other
time is about the finest example OF
teamwork and preparation that an
eleven can show. 1t has broken up
many a game and, while 1t is decried
as luck" or good fortune, such a play,

ample OF the highest kind OF football.
Either strikes for scores which de-
mand the least effort OF the eleven.
Ellery c. Huntington, professor OF
physical education at Colgate, a man
who knows football thoroughly, told
me this story recently OF Colgate's
"come back" victory over Syracuse in
1913, after Colgate had defeated Yale.

seemed to work in reality as in prac-
tice; yet Bankart, our coach, schooled
HIS men diligently in this play.
ain the CoIgate-syracuse game of
1913 I saw demonstrated the fact that
genius and luck consist but in the
ability to apply training to oppor-
tunity. The score was 1910 in Syra-
cuse's favor and the game three
fourths over. Syracuse kicked-ofr to
Colgate.
As watched the ball II seemed full
ly f1ve minutes before It came down
in my son Ellery's arms-he was
playing quarterback. A quick dash,
q clever side-step, another forward
fash and he was within the shelter
ing wings OF the protecting V that
had been so long and thoroughly
practiced.
Thus guarded he rushed up the
field for a touchdown and from then
on what looked like a close game
was really one-sided for Colgate. The
outsider said luck the man on the

White sox won the title, 4 games

Faber won three games for the
White Sox and Cicotte won the
fourth.
Five OF the six games were decided
in the fourth inning.
Eddie Collins handled thirty-four
fielding chances without an error and
hit for 400, being easily the indi-
VIdual star OF the series.
Dave Robertson led both teams at
bat, getting eleven hits in twenty
two times at bat for an average of
500.
Buck Weaver made the most errors,
having four misplays.
Benny Kauff hit two home runs in
one game. Felsch hit one.
Heinie Zimmerman made the prize

the ball and chasing Eddie Collins
