with it as coach in 1892.
 Back in the old days of football, de- clared John W. Heisman,, coach of Geor- gia Techs team which has been un- beaten for three years, "a coach was considerably handicapped if he didn't have a heavy eleven. In that era of mass plays it was beef and brawn that usually triumphed over brain. Only by the employment of the most unusual tricks was a light eleven ever able to score a victory over one that out weighed it from 10 to 30 pounds.
 Tn 1895 while I was coaching the Ala bama Polytechnic team of Auburn, all my candidates were light youngsters. It was up to me to drill those, boys in trick plays-or have them go down to steady defeat. During the year we were fairly successful, but when we went against the heavy Vanderbilt team, it didn't seem within the range of possibility that we could score a vic- tory.
 ''However, before we entered that game I conceived the idea of trying the hidden ball trick on the Vanderbilt team. NO Sucn play mad been attempt ed before and I hit upon it only in rambling thoughts on how I might out wit the enemy. Aftet I thought out the play I looked in the rule books and found there was no law against it. So in the first half of the game I put it into force with the result that we scored q touchdown and threw consternation into the ranks of the Vanderbilt team.
 The way the trick was worked was this:
 "The center passed the ball to the quar- terback who immediately jumped behind a revolving wedge interference As he did so he made bluff pass to the half back. Then, as the interference moved on it's way giving full protection to this halfback, the quarterback leaned over and began massaging a supposedly in- jured ankle. When all the Vanderbilt yers had raced after the interference the quarterback, seeing a clear field ahead of him, strengthened up and then dashed 40 yards down the field for a touchdown.
 "As the quarterback ran down the field the crowd in the stands looked on in amazement. It saw no ball in his hand. Not until after the quarterback
