and it will do everything in its power
to discourage the professional side Of
the game. We believe that foot ball
is the great school and college game
and that where 1t is played profess
sionally it tends to destroy the mo-
rale OF the undergraduates. Certainly
II is that. the professional player who
is interested only in the money to be
derived from the game, does not put
his heart and soul into the conflict as
does the college man, who goes into
the game with that do or die spirit
and all for the glory of the college
he represents.
teur game internationally has been
raised and it is commanding consid
cradle attention. Already Syracuse
University has taken a step in this
direction by going into Canada last
fall and playing Magill University.
This November the Canadian team
will journey to the Salt city and play
the Orange warriors. International
sport is one of the greatest agencies
for promoting friendly understand
ing between nations and it can be
made tremendous influence toward
the peace of the world. We believe
that American foot ball should play
It's part in this important work.
Safer for Youths.
The association has recommended
study of the foot ball rules with
view to efrecting such changes as
may make the game safer and more
attractive for the junior players. 1t
Is obvious that the youngsters should
not attempt the arduous game of the
senors and 1t is hoped that safe and
sane modification of the rules for our
grammar school lads may be effected
In this way the prejudice that some
CT hal
be overcome and the lads thus pre-
pared for the senior game later on.
The American Foot Ball Coaches
Association can render excellent serv-
ice along the lines similar to those
outlined above. Recently it has been
representatives at each institution

lieve that the suggestion is an eX-
ceilent one. Such a policy would un-
questlonably broaden the viewpoint
OF our college faculty members and
would tend to bring them in closer
touch with the vital extra academic
interests of undergraduate life In
this way we believe that the stu
dents would get to feel that they had
something in common with the fac
ulty and that the members of the
teaching force would also better un-
derstand the motives of the under
graduates.
In our American colleges. where
youth has so much unsupervised free
time. where he may. in most cases
work or not. as he pleases. would 1t
not be well to impose on the ancient
academic supervision of our lads the
realities of the present-day athletic
sports. with their strict discipline
high morale and absorbing interest? :?
To do so would not only strengthen
the college faculty and its control
but it also would serve the very vital
national necessities that demand
higher physical standards than have
yet been obtained.

Facts About Foot Ball;
The Best Play to Use

Q. Team A blocks kick behind
opponents goal line (not in the field
of play, as provided for in Approved
Ground Rules. l OBJ and the ball
goes into the stand among the spec
tators behind the end zone. What
would be the ruling?
A. The decision II the same In both
cases. The fact that the bull goes
into the stands means that a ground
rule Is necessary. 1t deprives the
men on the field OF an equal chance
to get the blocked ball. Therefore, n

@. A player on our team signaled
for a fair catch, but misjudged the
ball. 1t struck the ground and he
picked it up and made a run. Op-
ponents objected to allowing run,
claiming ball was not in play. Is this
right?
A, Play was legitimate. As soon as
a man making q signal for fair catch
mufHs the ball or the ball strikes the
ground, he loses all protection. In
such a case play continues a. IL NO

After the first half the Presidents
came back with instructions from
Coach Neale as to how to stop that
run of Brunners. They showed at

The feature of the week play,
however. was the high order of at
tack presented by Washington and
Jefferson and Lafayette. 1t was not
only powerful. it had all the quail
tiles of high-class deception. In
every formation and in every shift
by each team there always was more
than one threat and more than one
outlet. The defense on both sides had
to be constantly on its toes to discov-
er the point and method of attack in
the first two periods.
Brunner Locates Weak Point.
Lafayette rolled along like well

weak point in the Presidents defense
had been located-a hole just outside

No pricked balloon ever exploded
more effectually than Nebraska's
bubble of reputation. 1t is good
team. all right, better no doubt than
il showed in Archbold Stadium Sat-
urday. But it is no world beater and
by all evidence never has been.
Passing Not Effective.
It's forward passing attack Is not
particularly effective and when it is
realized that not one heave was COM
pleted and that five were intercepted,
the result speaks Ill for the Corn
huskerS overhead system, even
granting a splendid defense on the
part of Syracuse.
Allowances must be made for the
fact that the westerners had been
doing a lot of travelling in recent
weeks and were a bit train weary.
Perhaps this accounts for the slug
gishness of the line and its failure to
block opponents. to clear the way for
the backs or to get into the interfer-
ence.
At the same time. however, the fiery
play of the Syracuse outfit. the pile
driving charges. the keen tackling
and close following of the ball. and.
above all. the splendid equipment of
slants and inside plays, should be
recognized playing some part at
least in dazzling and dazing the team
worse than il really was.
Syracuse really was fine in all de-
partments OF play on Saturday. The
outfit had no great variety of attack,
but what it had was perfectly learn
ed and delivered as a great prize
fighter sends out his punches. Where
Syracuse hit she hurt. Her few for
ward passes were we'll done. Delay
was obtained by the thrower running
laterally and picking out an eligible
receiver from the bunch.
1t was a coagulated mass Of eligible
receivers which Syracuse sent out
and the writer would have liked to
moro fully than il was. Defenders
were effectually blocked out and the
scheme looked good.
Neither Employs shifts.
Neither team did any jumping of
the line or backfield in the way of
shifts. The two elevens paired their
tackles at the initial lineup and the
backfeld would deploy out of the
popular formation upon signal be-
; fore the ball was snapped.
Each team usually played three
men in the backf1eld on defense, plac-
! ing back close to the line. At the
4, same time Syracuse played her

} up Nebraska's simple forward passing
game, but the writer would have

certain that in the face Of a better

man defense would have availed, even

O. What Is the penalty y a full
back in kicking ball kicks it back
over his head and one of his own
players RECEIVERS it on the field of
play?
A. 1t II an onside play. Opponents
are given the ball Mt the spot where
1t was touched by one of the kicker's
side plus five yards in addition for
the Onside play. Rule IS. section 2.
Kicker could have recovered ball and
1T would only have counted rs an ad-
ditiOnal down. Rule Is. section 4.
Team has ball, first down, own 40
yard line, early in second quarter,
with score 100 in favor Of opponents.
The choice of the play here is deter
mined by what has occurred to date.
II other team has stopped your attack
and outplayed You in the rushing
game. the better plan is to open up
and test your forward passing game.
Few elevens on defense expect the
opponent to forward pass in his own
territory on first down. So, a pass
now carries the element of surprise
with it and, therefore. has a better
chance to succeed than II tried later.
Under this condition. your object is
to score often and rapidly and relieve
your team Of the handicap 1t faces
by being behind.
