said Griffith last night, ,and as all
people really interested in baseball.
I would like to see the pools killed.
In fighting them Ban johnson Is
simply following a policy the Amer

II think it is simply the activity of

SOL METZGER SWINGS
WICKED AN ON SQUAD

Those who have met Sol Metz
ger. former Pennsylvania captain
when he has officiated in games
here, are not greatly surprised that
he showed who was the coach in
name and fact at the University
of South Carolina when the cap
tain left the squad and one OF
the other stars was dropped from
the squad for failure to follow or
ders.
Any team that has coach who
is not absolute is worse than
team without any coach at all, and
Metzger's policy could be followed
to the advantage OF the college by
more than one coach.

WASHINGTON MAN
HAS NOVEL PLAN
TO END SHIFTING
Central Highs .Coach's
Idea Starts Discussion
OF New Tactics.

Before and during the Penn State
Navy game here last week num-
ber of football men. including
Glenn Warner, Pittsburgh. and Tad
Jones. Yale. were discussing some
of the latest developments in foot
ball. including Rutgers plan of dis
pensing with signals and calling
the players back to tell them the
play. and the Georgia Tech shift
which takes the linemen back and
have them leap into the line.
Various proposals were made as
to how to effectively meet these
movements and Thomas Kirby, Cen
traI High school coach. suggested
the defensive line should go back
with the offcnsc and instead of
allowing them to leap force them
to come forward slowly. The de-
fensc would he temporarily off side
but the offerse could not snap the
ball until seven men were on the
line
Discussing the discu sion, W. L.
Hcnua. football critic in the New
York Tribune. says:
"TEomJs Kirby. WashinGtonian
and formerly coach at the Tuiver-
sity of Gc"rEia. has a novel idea
for football defense which may he

with tha shift-the line shift-and
is nothing more or less than having
the defensive line shift over into
the ufTcusiv" lines territory when
the latter forwards step back to

Ritter Quits Muhlenberg.

ALLENTOWN. Pa, Nov. S.-After
a long and late conference of the
football committee at MuhlenberS,
Bill Ritter rendered his resignation
as line coach, to take effect at once
Ritter was the Muhlenberg Coach IN
1919 and 1920. and month ago at
Head Coach Spiegel's request, was
engaged as line coach.
1t appears that Ritter's system
was contrary to that used by Spiegel
and this brought on discord. There
were arguments from time to time
and finally at the suggestion of the
athletic board, Ritter rendered his
resignation. Coach SpieSel will
henceforth have fun charge of the
team.
