Georgia Tech and Southern Football
Georgia Team is No Will Q the Wsp Says Sol Metzger, Coach of Washington & Jefferson Football Team
 Coach Heisman Uses Every Ability of His Players
 Southerners Show Great Sportsmanship in Big Games

second quarter it was just as close and as savage1y fought. Finally Georgia Tech got the ball on Alabama's 40- yard litle. This is what Heisman told me about the next move:
 "This was the opportunity we were awaiting and 1 sent into the game at half, Everett Strupper, then IS years old. who was playing his first year on the varsity. As a Freshman the pre- vious year he had given repeated evil dence of his ability in open field run ming. We immediately used a forma- tion somewhat like the punt line up and sent Strupper. with heavy inter ference, around left end. He was Georgia and his swift rush. like that of a greyhound, carried the ball to Alabama's 20-yard line.
 "Aetackle buck brought the ball near midfeld and another line play was used to rest the kid. Neither gained ground. It was third down and still twenty yards from the goal line. We had planned for just such a situation, unfolded the one special play reserved to win the game. Morrison, our quar- terback, remembered his instructions very well.
 ."The formation consisted in spread ing our rush line across the field. each man about seven yards from his near est comra.de. Four yards back of center stood the quarter and two yards back of him the other backs in regu- lar line of three. Strupper. the man of destiny, stood at left half.
 "We had figured that by allowing a little time to elapse before using the play we had planned for this moment that our opponents would spread themselves apart in some loose forma- ton to oppose us. This they did. The formation had succeeded in making them draw back some of their men to guard against forward passes. Thus was offered to the finest of an opportunity to throw Strupper, our great open field runner, into a broken field. Our faith was so strong in his ability to make his own way over the goal under such conditions that we coaches were willing to entrust the fortunes of the game to him.
 ''The pass to Strupper was perfect and he was off with all his accustom- ed confidence and blin: ing speed. The other three backs were depended upon to tal.e care of any opponents who might break through our didely scattered line of scrimmage. We knew if we got Strupper that far he could we'll shift for himself This duty was well performed. In fact, but one man came through so that our backfie1d in reference not only took Strupper to the line but well beyond it.

Coach Washington and Jefferson
 Football Team
 For the first time in the history o1 football the South has come into Its own. No matter what the alibi, nc matter what the excuse, the fact will ever remain that the eleven of Georgia Tech, coached by J. w. Hetsman. a long time ago Penn player himself not only met and defeated Pennsylvania at Atlanta this fall but gave the had with but one single exception since the football sun arose fin Phil adelphia away back in 1S92-the year that the Red and Blue first took the measure of the then great Princeton team. 41-o-the score that Georgia Tech ran up against Penn at Atlanta -is no huke or no mean victory. It is such an unheralded performance that one cannot quite get his breath.
 There was nothing out of the usua, about this victory. It was we'll earned and it remains a tribute to the coach tenn against system and the honors rest with Heisman and Everett Strup- per, the 19-year-o1d half back of 150 pounds. who literally ran circles fense.
 That Georgia Tech is no will O the wisp in football circles is quite evident when one considers it's record: Last year it's team, COacned by HelSnan, won the Southern championship on Thanksgiving day by defeating Ala bama Poly in rattling good game which proved beyond doubt that Southern football was high class. The victory over Penn but accented this as it will awaken the football world to the fact that all the science. brains and daring in football is not confined to narrow strip of terri tory along the north Atlantic sea- board.
 Recently J. W. Heisman, an outdoor man told me of his team winning the Southern title last year. Let me give you the story in his own words that you may judge whether or not South ern football is on a par with the East ern article. whether the one sided score run up on Penn was due to the Quakers having a very weak eleven which seems odd when the backfield was about the same as that which de- feated Cornell and Michigan last year -or whether Georgia Tech is unusual ly strong and we1l-coached.
 Georgia Tech had to win from Ala bama Poly last year to make good It's title. The game proved to be a nip and tuck affair. At the end of the frsr quarter neither team had shown any advantage. For ten minutes of the

line tacklers came from all directions and massed in front or him.. The kid veered sharply to the left and knifed his way between two coming in that direction before they could get him. Immediately another Poly man ap- peared in bis front, blocking his way; but here came one of his matchies dOdges which left this opponent sprawling helplessly on his face. Tack lers appeared from all directions now and Strupper, half way to the. goa; hne. turned to the right and we thought he was gone. Fortunately ponent.
 By this time" both teams were around him so he jumped behind one of his big guards to avoid another op- ponent and in a flash. like a cat, dived through small opening oyer the last line with Babe" Taylor, the 22O man backing up Poly's line. smothering him as he hit the sod. A goal from touc' clown completed the scoring"
 When a coach-as did Heisman iil this game-plans his attacks along lines of this kind he is the sort of man who is bound to be successful for the good reason of the players under him. Such a coach, given material, is dangerous opponent for any team.
 There remains the question of de- fense. How does Tech stack up in this important feature of the game? When it won the Southern champion ship last year from Alabama Poly 1t had a life and death struggle iii the third quarter when Poly rushed the ball to its six-inch line only to be held for downs. And it's defense against Penn proved we'll able to cope with F'olwelrs short forward pass, the pass that twice upset Yale, gave Harvard the scare of it's life and proved the un- doing of Pitt in 1914.
 And for sportsmanship tIe South is among the leaders. Witness this example when Strupper made his win ming touchdown against Alabama Poly last Thanksgiving. As he fell over the fine, tackled by big "Babe" Taylor, of Poly, the latter, game to the core, helped Strupper to his feet and said, "Kiddo, you sure do runi" "I have to Babe," came the reply, when you get after me-" Pretty fine spirit that for big game.
 The play Heisman planned and which was uScd to win the Southern title last year was akin to tine Idaho shift O spread" first brought to light by the University of Idaho in the fall of 1906, much to the chaerin of made successful forward passes iron. it. Hurry Up' Yost, of Michigan. sprung it on Pennsylvania in 1907 and scored a touchdown. But Heisman must be credited with having the wits to work it out himself. as he had not heard of these examples. Further more. he is the first coach to plan a running attack from the spread" I: all goes to show that the South has football brains Snd ability and must be reckoned with in any international contest.
