Elder |. A. Douthit, of Sedala, KY,
in the Lexington Christian church,
were not concluded until Wednesday
night of last week. Elder Douthit
has been with us before, but during
this visit and incident to his preach
ing, he made more friends than ever
among our people-and he was heard
by many outside the membership Of
his own faith, Elder Douthit is
young, corpulent and while full of Vi
tality he has the knack of preaching
with such ease that he does not exert
himself, hence did not suffer from the
great heat. 1t was not our pleasure
to hear him but one time, as our eyes
will not permit sitting under electric
lights, but that one sermon showed us
conclusively that elder Douthit is a
preacher of far more than ordinary
ability. The people of SCOTS Hill are
looking forward with pleasurable an
ticipation to the meeting which Elder
Douthit will begin in that town in
August, the night of Saturday, the
9th.

GETS LINE OF MEN
(By The Associated prcss.)

Ann Arbor. Mich, Nov. 21.-Motion
pictures are to play an important part
in the future coaching of the Michigan
varsity foot ball squad, Coach Fielding
II. Yost announced following an in
vcstigatiOn along this line.
Coach Yost discovered the value OF
motion pictures to a foot ball coach by
accident. He asked local motion pic
ture cameraman to take LOO feet OF
film of the Michigan-Ohio State game.
1t was JYost's intention to compile a
pictorial record of important Michigan
games to be shown about the state and
at class reunions in the future.
Sees Team in Action.
When the pictures were delivered n
small room adjoining Yost's office was
converted into a projecting room and
the pictures shown upon a small card
board. the motion picture machine be-
ing focused to- show all of the play on
the cardboard. Although the figures in
the pictures appeared to be but few
inches in height Coach Yost. by stand
ing close to the cardboard. obtained as
good q view of his team in action as
though he had been playing in the
back field The value of motion pictures
for training purposes became apparent
to the ''hurry up mentor.
Can Follow Play.
BY turning the machine slowly he
found he could obtain the results of
a rapid action camera. Yost turned
the reel through the machine over and
over again. studying the manner in
which each of his charges. conducted
himself in the Ohio State game. He
learned which of the men followed the
play at all times and which lacked ag-
sressivencss. After the demonstration
was over Yost had accurate informa-
ton concerning the good and bad points
of each member of his squad who ap-
pearcd during the game. ~A,s Is ss's
Il cannot say that motion pictures
will revolutioniZe coaching but they
will aid us considerably in giving us
