next Saturday, however. promises
to be anything but listless. The
Augustana team is anxious to nut
over its first victory of the season
and Coach Smiths squad is equally
as determined to avenge the defeat
of the previous year. In addition to
the desire to win their first con-
test of the season, the fact that the
game with Monmouth will be play
ed before Homecoming crowd
gives the Augustana players an
added incentive. Plans are being
laid by the committee in charge Of

New York, N. T., Oct. 1S.-Per-
haps the layman would get more
out of football today-and there is
no question about the interest of
the public in the game-if he knew
a little more about what was going
ON under cover on the field below
him. Some one has said that 1t is
automatic that no play in football
is a good play when opponents
know where it is going. That may
not be entirely true. Nevertheless
the supposition is that every play
is more or less masked.
There are several distinct
methods of making plays. One is
where there are one, two or even
three outlets from what apparently
starts as the same formation. The
simplest illustration OF this is the
ordinary formation behind the line.
Let us say a left halfback received
the call from the quarterback. He
may lunge straight through the line,
he may start toward tackle as
though going outside tackle and
then cut in between tackle and
guard or he may make a sweeping
run outside tackle or even outside
the end.
Plays like this are the founda-
ton of offense From them are
built up with different formations,
such as four square, three milne,
a shift or two or more backfeld
men out toward the end before the
ball is put in play, kick formations
that is where one of the players
is dropped back to kicking dis
tance-and finally spread plays
where the line ard the backs are
displayed with wider spaces be-
tween.
From all these various forma-
tons it is possible to conceal a
forward pass, criss-cross or
double pass, even a triple pass Or
an unexpected quick kick. Then
in addition to these methods there
are fakes of all kinds. Perhaps ds
good an illustration as any is the
play where a man drops back as il
to kick. The ball is passed to him

last few minutes, when q lateral
pass completed to Stinchcomb and
the former Ohio State wonder
crossed the line for the only touch
down of the game.
The Independents had scouts at
the game and they brought back re /.
ports that if Rochester has not
played the Akron team on Thursday
it surely would have trimmed the
Bears.
Reach Davenport
Rochester team came direct from
Chicago, arriving in Davenport yes
terday afternoon. Due to the fact
that the train was late, the Jeffs
had no chance to indulge in a light
practice as planned. However.
Captain Alexander went directly to
st. Ambrose college authorities and
completed arrangements for use OF
the college field the remainder Of
the week. The st. Ambrose team
will also scrimmage the Jefs two
or three times.
Alexander declared that in spite
of two hard games last week, his
men are in good physical condition,
and with the opportunity to become
acclimated, promises the Independ-
ents that his aggregation will
shake the jinx that struck them at
Akron, only it will be at the ex-
pense Of the Independents.
Needless to say, Captain Jimmy
Councilman and his men entertain
the most wholesome respect for the
eastern invaders, and in order to
be at their best have been working
diligently and faithfully every aft
ernoon since Monday. The usual
Monday rest was dispensed with
this time. 1t was evident that the
Independents were off stride last
Sunday, even against much
weaker team, and Councilman pro-
poses to have the rough spots
, ironed out before the acid test
against the Jeffs.
Seat Sale BOOmk
The seat sale already is greater
than at this early in the week pre-
ceding the game with the Bears. II
was evident that tri-city fans were
only waiting for the result of tbs
Rochester-Bears game last Sunday
before putting in their orders. Nc
sooner had the score arrived than
a rush started, and it has increased
rapidly with the approach of next
Sunday. The reserved seats are OIL

BIZ IL. HUGHES.


Benny Boynton, all-Anerican
quarterback with the Rochester
Jeifs, promises to be real menace
to the Independents in the great
inter-sectiOnal football contest at
Douglas park next Sunday after
noon.
Boynton Is pronounced by critics
to be one of the greatest quarter
backs in the game today. Many re-
gard his superior to Paddy Dris-
coll of the Chicago Cardinals, and
it goes without question that this
is saying a mOuthful.
Benny rose to prominence on the
gridiron as q member Of the Will
liams college team, in the east. In
his last season-1920-he was
chosen all-American quarterback
by Walter Camp and occupied the
same position in the football world
that fell to Aubrey Devine Of Iowa
last fall.
Williams college is a competitor
on the gridiron of all the big uni
versities Of the east, notably Yale,
Harvard and Princeton. 1t has
turned out many great players, not
able among these being Boynton.
Highly Touted.
Boynton comes here as a highly
advertised product. He is in the
i same class as Pete StinchcOmb,
Driscoll, Dutch" Sternaman and
all the other great luminaries of the
gridiron who have graced the field
from time to time in Douglas park.
He is lightning fast, brilliant omen
! field runner and a field general
than whom there is no whomer. He
is said to be the real power in the
Rochester attack this fall, and
probably more than any other sing lie
factor has given that city one of
the finest teams in the National
Football league.
Have Great End.
Besides Boynton, Rochester's
lineup includes the cream OF the
greatest players ever developed in
eastern colleges. Only one man
comes from a mid-western institu-
ton, and he is the peerless Eddie
Anderson, Notre Danes all-Ameri-
can end of last season. Anderson is
in a class by himself when it comes
to receiving forward passes. At
Notre Dame last fall, he and
Johnny MOhardt formed what many
critics regarded as the greatest for
ward passing combination ever de-
veloped in the history of the game
These two were the despair of all
the Notre Danes opponents.
+ Joe Alexander, captain and cel-
ter, achieved his spurs at Syracuse
university and is another OF
. Rochester's all-Americans by virtue
. of real ability. His professional
career has proved this. His play.
, ing borders on the sensational
which is saying something for {
| lineman. Ordinarily a lineman's
, good work is lost sight of in the ex

so with Alexander. Those who have
seen him in action declare he i.

South Bend, Ind, Oct. 18.-Notre
Dame occupies a not altogether en-
viable position in the football world
thsi, fall. Since 1913, when the
Blue and Gold first appeared on
an eastern gridiron and smothersd
the cadets at West Point, Notre
Dame has held an Independent place
in the national football world.
Last year many regarded the
South Bend team as the greatest in
the country and the two preceding
elevens of this institution ranked
among the best. AS a consequence
much is expected of Notre Dame.
She must live up to high reputa-
ton if she can. 1t is not yet GER
tain that she can.
OF the great combination which
played last autumn, Cashier, the
fine back, alone is left. OF men
who got into the 1921 lineup as
substitutes, Degree, a guard, has
disabled shoulder; Tom Lieb,
tackle, has broken leg; Mahr and
Desch, backs, are suffering from a
broken hand and a Clipped heel
bone, respectively None will be
able to play until after the Georgia
Tech game and Lieb is out for the
year.
Against Purdue last Saturday the
Notre Dame center trio weighed
15s. 1913 and 1877 pounds. The
backfeld meets the Notre Dame
standards but even the best set of
backs must have strong forward
wall il it is to accomplish much.
The team is light The chances are
it will find approaching games with
Depauw, Georgia Tech, Indiana, the
Army, Butler, Carnegie Tech ami
Nebraska far too big a dose to
swallow.
What Notre Dame hopes to do is
to finish the season with the feel
ing that she has earnd the respect
of every opponent. 1t is regarded
here as too much to ask that the
eleven escape more than one de-
feat.
However, Notre Dame probably
will make more of what it has than
could be accomplished anywhere
else. For of all the universities
which the writer has visited, foot
ball dominates the atmosphere of
this beautiful institution to a great
er extent than elsewhere.
The chances are that Notre Dame
s'ill show some interesting for
ward passing plays, plays tina.
, should be difficult to stop, even
granting that the Notre Dame line
fails to approach standard. The
shift of the backfield will be devious
and very effective. The men on
shift plays take two steps with a
curious hip movement that makes
for leverage and quick starting.
There is an instant's pause clearly
perceptible. and when the plav is
away it is very effective.
Finally NOtre Dame elevens are
always so precise, so mechanically
perfect that the writer was i'm
PEELED to ask Knute Rockne how
many scrimmages he held each

Every one here plays at football
and some 800 are playing it every

There is the varsity, the varsity

Select Middle.vei9hts
to Fight for
Title.
BY FAIR PLAY.

New York. Oct. 1S.-Not a bad
plan, that which the New York
state boxing commission evolved
to clear up the middle weight
muddle. There was commentator
everywhere for it today.
It's the simplest thing in the
world. The commission has de-
cided that Johnny Wilson is too
fearful Of fighting to be a real
champion, and that since Harry
Greb and Phil Rosenberg were too
much included to a Bolshevistic at
titude toward the commissions rul-
ings, there should be a new deal all
around. Therefore the board said
here are the names of eight
battlers. Let 'em scrap 1t out, and
may the best man win.
The men . named are Tommy
Loughran, who is handsomer than
Jim Corbett: Tommy Robson.
Bryan Downey Aukie Rather,
Louis Bogash, Mike O'Dowd, Pal
Reed and Jock Malone. None is a
world beaten, hut all are at least
fighters and willing to fight. The
writer learned today from an Official
Of the boxing commission that
after the series which decides the
best of the bunch named, Wilson,
Rosenberg and Greb will be called
on to meet the winner.

persistence championship of all the
