Deer Park, Md, Sept. s-"Fat"
Spears is not satisfied with the
tackling OF the West Virginia line
men or ends, or with the manner in
which the backs catch punts. To
correct these weaknesses. a full
hour was spent yesterday afternoon
and another long period this morn
ing.
Spears himself did most of the
kicking, sending some kicks down
the field sixty yards in long spirals
After the workout he called the men
together, and collectively and indi-
vidually, 'bawled them out" He
told the backs they were "gun shy
and the linemen that he hadn't
seen a decent tackle in q whole
week.
After tho kicking practice. the
team spent half hour in a real
scrimmage. Spears doesn't call it a
scrimmage, but the only thing ii
lacked was a kickoff and blood and
blood and bruises were plentiful. In
| the course of the melee, Spears
made some shifts from the second
eleven to the first. Philip Hill, the
sturdy Charleston youth, replaced
Jimmy Quinlan at center on the
varsity after Hill had repeatedly
broken through the varsity line ant
made tackles. Lyle and George
Hill stood out at advancing the bal

the radical changes suggested at
the close of last season by coaches
and experts, will open its 1921 sea

Only a few minor changes have
been made in the official intercolleg-
late rules. Suggestions were advan-
ced last spring for restrictions on
the forward pass, and many other
reforms which would have necessi-
tated radical changes in the rules
were outlined. The rules commit
tee decided, however, that the day
for rules tinkering had passed, and
the changes they adopted clarity
rather than alter the various rules.
One OF the principal changes pro
vides that in the event of the scor-
ing of a safety the side which has
made 1t shall put the ball In play by
scrimmage from first down at any
place on its 3O-yard line. After a
touchback the ball still will be put
in play on the p0-yard line.

ion has been made. Division A pro-
vides that the offenses Of tripping

Even though the day was extremely
warm everyone going from here ex-
pressed their pleasure in being able
to attend this annual county gather
ing of the young people.
The Grantsville girls did wonders
in the volley ball contest until in the
final game when they seemed to lose
spirit and allowed the Kitzmiller girls
with their smiling faces to put one
over on them. But the local team,
| knowing that some one would have
to win, gave up the fight by cheering
the Kitzmiller girls on with one Of
their school yells, keeping in mind
that there is another day coming. The
score stood 80 to 8 in favor of Kitz-
{ miller.
The boys dodgeball contest was al
most a complete failure, out one of
the points of interest is that one of
the Grantsville boys who was seldom
ever allowed in the practice games of
his school, was the last to be knocked
! out of the ring.
The Grantsville boys did fine work
in the races. Even though they were
left in the dust in a few races, they
showed in spirit that they will soon
| be coming to the front.
So far as form or poise carried by
! the runners, Glenn Custer, of the local
school, was judged to have the most
perfect. With a little practice he will
make an all-round athlete He seems
to have the stuff in him that is re-
CURED to bring this ability to the sur
face.
