Big College No Longer
Supreme In Football

This is something that is usually
lacking at the large institutions. At
a small college the players are
grouped in a few small buildings.
Every man knows every other man
on the campus. There is a feeling
of fellowship among the students. At
all college activities these men are
being constantly thrown together.
Their relationship is in common.
At the large schools a football
team is like some mechanical
device. There is never the fight and
the spirit shown as where all the
men know each other and are like
one big family.
Getting Better Coaches
The high school athlete is begin
ming to recognize the advantage of
the smaller institutions and in this
way better material is being found
there.
These same smaller schools are
realizing the advantages of good
clean athletics to the growing boy
and are securing more capable men
as coaches.
I believe it is due to these reasons
more than to the change in the rules
favoring the open style of playing
that is bringing the small institutions
ing a position to compete with the
larger ones on the football field.

WATCH OUT
FOR P|TTsBURG
Claim Pirates Will be Heard
From in Next Years Pen
nant Race

PITTSBURGH Oct. 13-Despite
the fact that the Pittsburgh Pirates
failed to wrest the National League
pennant from the New York Giants,
local fandom is in a distinctly diff
erent mood than it was a ear ago
today.
In 1921. Manager Gibson's war;
riors came down the home stretch
with a commanding lead-and then
blew up with a report that was
heard throughout organized base
ball. Pennant hopes faded away
with the Giants rush and local sup
porters gave vigorous vent to their
disappointment.
Gibson got away poorly this year
A change OF managers resulted.
From the week that Bill McKechnie
became skipper. distinct improve
ment was noted. From the middle
of July, Pittsburgh played like a
show that the Corsairs made the
greatest record in the league from
that turning point.
The Giants lead was too much,
however, and local fans must wait
another year. And they are SEEM
ingly confident that 1928 will be
the scene of triumphs such as were
recorded at Forbes Field when Fred
Clarke's men became champions of
the world.
For past six weeks the Pirates
have been leading the league in
tea Knitting The pitching has been
superb with shutout victories any
thing but rare. The fielding has
been equally as spectacular.
McKechnie intends to start next
season with his present lineup and
pitching staff.
why break up a championship
team?" he asked. would you
trade u outield for any in the
business or our pitching staff for
any corps in either league? Is
there a better catcher than Schmidt
or a mightier infield-on offense or
defense--than Grimm Tierney. Ma
ranville and Trayner?"
Local writers and grandstand ex-
perts have advanced many theories
for the remarkable change that
came over the Pirates after Nc
Kechnie took charge. Some give
the manager all the credit. Others
insist that the pitching did it-after
Catcher Schmidt was brought back
to the fold and given charge Of the
hurlers.

Au-American Quarterback

Centre College at Danville, KY, is
perhaps the most talked about small
college in the country.
Football put Centre College on the
map.
Five years ago only a select few
knew there was such an institution.
| Today it is mentioned as frequently
as Harvard. Yale or Princeton.
Centre College broke into big print
| four years g when it decisive.y

| GINA had surprised the football
| world by its defeat of Princeton,

Seasons Big Thrill
Last fall Centre put over the bis
thrill of the season by its 6 to O. de-
feat of Harvard.
Centres rise to fame in the o
ball world has been typical OF the
| success that a great many smaii
| colleges have enjoyed in recent
years.
The new football featuring the
| forward pass has helped to pave the
| way for the smaller colleges. NO

game. 1t calls for fast, well condi-
toned players. Strategy supplants

Some Leading Spirit
However, If you go back into the
| history of the sensational rise Oh
| most of the smaller college teams
you will find there is some leading
/ spirit who has done much 10 put
them over.
A good illustration of this can be
given through the recent success OF
| my alma mater. The man behind 1t
| all there was Robert L. Myers, a
Centre alumnus. Many have the i'm
preston that this team just hap
pened or built itself, but such Is not
true.
In 1916 Myers took it upon
| himself to encourage a Few STU
! dents from his home town high
| school to go with him to Centre,
| where he had voluntarily offered MS
services as coach without remunera-
ton.
Among this crowd were several
All-Star high school men and others
who later made All-American and
All-Southern selections before leav-
ing college. The man working at
this had visions of a great football
team at Centre College and through
his wonderful personality and untir-
ing efforts a great organization was
perfected.
Players Like Brothers
One of the biggest factors on a
successful football team is the feel
ing and relation of the players
among themselves. In this Myers
stressed special attention. The men
played and fought as a band of
brothers. There was not a man
on the team who would not.go
through IRE for his college or co&Eh.
