HEISMAN JUMP
SHIFT UNIQUE
Worked With Remarkable Re.
suits by Georgia Tech.

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 26.-Few foot
ball formations introduced in the last
dozen years have caused greater dis
cussion than the "Helsman jump shift, 80
which has been worked with such re
maykahle results by the Georgia Tech
elevens Of 1915, 1915. t9l1 and 1918.
"Rut there is nothing complicated
about it," insists John W. Ileisman,
the originator, who has been coaching
Georgia Tech elevens for nearly IS
years,
Explaining the play, Heisman said;
when the shift is put into effect
every man except the center is back
Of the scrimmage line. The distance that
the guards, tackles, ends and backfield
men are removed from the line some
times depends upon what kind Of play
the boys are about TO make. The whole
idea Of pulling 10 men Of the team back
Of the line is to give to the team con
certed action and a preponderating force
line.
In 1910 II occurred to me that Moth
Ing much was gained by asking my
tackles and guards, standing shoulder
10 shoulder with the enemy linesmen,
10 batter down those men. 1t was a
task almost impossible because, to vet
ramming power into a drive, a certain
momentum Is necessary. And that mo-
mentum is gained only BY n run.
sc | pulled my guards and t~aclles
back to form a first line of interfer-
ence The h~ulfbacks and end form the
second line, The moment the ball is
passed, the two lines Of Interference
move forward with all possible speed
and whetA In n concerted formation, ii
hits a struggling enemy line the inev-
liable happens. The enemy line Is
knocked down, In cases where an end
run, a fake kick, a forward pass or
some trick play Is to be engineered
the double line Of Interference serves
as an etfectual mask.
The beauty OF that formation Is
mat every conceivable play can be made
from Il. Georgia Tech makes practically
gu It's playF from that formation-line
bucks, end runs, criss cross asses and
forward passes, Just how successful
the Jump shift has been when using
the aerial attack Is shown by the fact
mat 10 per cent of all Georgia Techs
forward passes during the past four
years have been completed.
= 1T takes tremendous patience and
palnstaking effort to drill players into
executing the jump shift with smooth
ness and speed. But generally my bows
nave succeeded in perfecting 1t by the
middle or October, after which time
u invariably causes a heap of trouble
for the opposition teams. Georgia Tech
mas been using that play for eight wears
and we never yet have encountered
a team that has been able to devise
a consistent defense against IL. That
apparently shows its WORTH
