This is most important and really
is the keynote to successful line
bucking. No back, however fast
and powerful, can penetrate a good
line unless the line first has been
opened or partially opened by the
teammates.
The end should be we'll drilled in
boxing the opposite tackler and this
can best be accomplished by hooking
the shoulders and carrying him either
to the right or left, whichever the
play calls for. In cases where the
tackles play directly in front Of TIE
end. the best method for the end IS
to charge his man hard and fast with
the shoulders a little above the knees
and count on the impetus of the play

front they should follow the same
principle laid down above for the end.
Where the opposition is playing TO
the side il is well to charge into them
low down and form the side at such
an angle that they are most easily
moved in the direction desired.
1t may be that the forwards are
unable to completely open up the de-

YACHT AMERICA MAY
RACE ONCE MORE

Boston, Oct. 20.-Local yachtsmen
are planning to fit the old America,
the yacht that brought the cup TO
the United States from England,
with rig such as she had in her
palmy days and test her speed
against modern creations of the
sailing craft designer.
Saved from a lowly career as a
freighter by C. H. W. Foster and
other members of an Eastern yacht
club syndicate, the America Is des-
tined eventually to be laid up as a
marine museum. In recent years
she has lain at q South Boston

There are two kinds OF interference:
in one the shoulder is used, in the
other the man throws his body hori-
zontally across the lower part OF his
opponents body. 1t is very important
that football players should thorough
ly master both forms.
Shoulder interference is most effect
lively used by the backs in blocking
off defensive ends and in cases where
the men are running too fast 10 per-
init of the diving interference. In all
cases where the ends and linemsn are
sent down to get the secondary de-
fense. 1 think the most effective loIm
is the diving interference.

According to Al Munro Elias, the
Demon and Spectacular Statistician,
50 bell players in the American League
hit better through 1917 than a year
before. while no less than 50 slump

In the National League there were

The most interesting detail involves
the two lOl6 leaders. Speaker, in the
American League, after leading Cobb

Hal Chase took an even deeper
tumble. Hall fell from .s39 20 20.

Hal had his stock well margined,
and so can carry It over another
year.
