servedlv defied the value OF shift plays
and c%ontended that as soon as the OPP
porents shifted to meet the play the
situation was equally difficult.
II is true that an expert veteran eleven.
with years of defensive work behind II.
does not have great trouble in analyz-
ing and meeting shift plays unless the
plays are of very high quality and in
volve considerable deception. A shift
play poorly devised and executed in a
slovenly manner is worse than no shift
at all because it is not effective. and.
moreover. is likely to exhaust unduly
the team making the shift.
The quick backfield shifts of Penn
State last year depended largely upon
their beautiful execution. but they were
quite as effective as some of the 1um-
bering line shifts of other teams. There
are many expert coaches who would
like to see the shift play entirely aban-
doned. but they are coaches who rely
largely upon wonderful precision and
skill of their men as individuals. There
is another school of coaches. like
Rockne of Notre Dame. who carried
the shifts to a point where by special
timing they have blended not only the
sudden hum of men in q running at
tack but also with the forward passing
game. and these men believe thorough
ly that the shift is a proper develop
ment of the art of attack.
The new rules will undoubtedly slow
down the shift plays. especially wien
made by big lire men, for it takes such
men longer TO come to a stop and Their
start again than it does light, shifty
backfield men.

CANADIAN FIGHTER
GIVES DEMPSEY RUN
IN FOUR ROUND CO
Rioux Found in Lumber Camp
and Trained by Doctor
Interested in Him.
By McGANN


Special Correspondent OF The Great Feiit fribpne.
Copyright, 1922: hy The Great Falls Tribune
New York. Aug. 13.-Who is this
Elziar Rioux. the Canadian woodsman
whom Jack Dempsey recently met in
a four-round bout in Montreal and
thereafter sung the praises of the
young giants ability to absorb the best
wallops that the champion could hand
out?
Well. all that may be said at present
is that he is Elziar Rioux of the north
wood, a fit character for novel or film
drama. a great bronzed. two-fisted
French Canadian who has devastated
the lumber camps where abide men
proud of their proves as mixers. ,-
His initial appearance outdoes. or at
least rivals. any film conception of the
camps of the big woods where axe
men. once their labors are done, disport
themselves after the rough and rugged
manner of their kind. To one camp in
the province of Quebec on the banks
of a stream that flows into the st.
Maurice. there came one evening a
| giant named Rioux who sat at the fire
while the camp bully displayed his
physical strength by picking up his
man from a lying position and swinging
them like babes to their feet.
Rioux Meets Camp Bully
At length. trying his stunt upon
Rioux. he. to his surprise. failed to
lift the newcomer. In turn. Rioux
around. Then the fight began. It
was a real fight. Rioux against the
camp.
In the end. according to the story.
Rioux was the only man Of the party
who held his position. Word of the
battle finally reached Montreal. where
lives DIR. j. =. Gadbois. who is super
intendent of public amusements in that
city.
DR.. Gadbois searched the LUMBER
camps for Rioux. but at length found
him in his home town, Trois Pistoles.
county of Temisconata. For years the
physician had been seeking a Canadian
who might give promise of developing
into a great heavyweight prize fighter.
But of all the men he had met, Rioux
ton of what a potential champion
should possess.
Was Denied Boxing Gloves
Boxing gloves were denied him. and
it was DR.. Gadbois' plan not to let him
don the mlttS 1Or a period or SIX
months. That period of trial elapsed
last month and Their the physician be-
gan to put his pupil through a course
Of lessons in boxing.
DR.. Gadbois requested that Dempsey
put on the gloves with the Canadian
and spare no punishment for four
rounds. What the mentor wished to
do was to test the heart of the man.
And Rioux wishes himself tested. The
two went at it hammer and tongs, and
at the end of the fourth round. Rioux,
| while dazed and somewhat shaky, was
still on his feet and willing to take
more.
"a coming champion" said Jack
Dempsey.
Rioux must still learn a lot about the
art of hit, stop and get awey, but he
has all the physical ana mental qualifi.
| cations. Keep your eye on Rioux.
