He has called the second practice

gion team won, 1876. This was the

GRIFFITH FAILS
AS AN UMPIRE
President of Washington Club
ence During Close Game
Relates Peculiar Expert
BY BILLY EVANS

One day last summer in a game
at Washington a certain play came
up in which the base umpire after
rendering a decision of out on a play
was overruled by the plate umpire
and the runner called safe. The ball
beat the runner, but the first base
man juggled the ball several times
and it was in the air when the
runner passed over the base. The
base umpire couldn't see the Jug
Cling ball because of his position
back of the fielder. When informed
by the plate umpire that the ball
had been juggled a number of times
the base umpire changed his ruling,
declaring the runner safe.
The reversing of the decision
caused considerable gossip and Incl
dentally caused Clarke Griffith
president of the Washington club,
to relate an unusual thing that hap
pened to him along those lines dur
ing his days as a star pitcher for
the Chicago Nationals. Griffith, al
ways a close student of the game,
one day essayed the role of big
league umpire and thereby hangs
the story but we will let "Griff" tell
it himself.
The umpires failed to show up
for a Sunday game at Chicago and
cap" Anson, then managing the
Chicago club of which team [ was
a member, selected me as one of
the umpires. The other umpire was
a visiting player. 1 umpired the
bases.
"A rather close play came up at
first base in which l declared the
visiting runner out. 1 felt sure that
l had rendered the proper ruling,
but from the kick that resulted a lot
OF folks must have thought other
wise. The visiting players surround
ed me, called me all kinds of names,
threatened to leave the field and do
many other dire things, but l stood
my ground, and insisted the man
was officially out and that settled it.
Imagine my surprise when I hear
Cap Arson say to the captain of
the visiting club:
Come on and let us play, quit
kicking. The man was safe. l know
it and he is going to stay on first
THE game a resumed with the
man l had declared out taking is
place on first. Later he scored, and
hat run decided the ball game
against Chicago. AS an umpire,
therefore, / believe I hold the rec
ord, in having a decision in favor of
the home team overruled by the
leader of that club. Beat that one

NEW YORK, Nov. 23 (By The
Associated Press) The twenty
sixth annual meeting of Uncle Sans

tomorrow afternoon, will bring to-
gether two of the sturdiest COM
binations ever to represent the re-
spective schools, Notwithstanding
the fact the Cadets have suffered
two defeats and the Middies n
defeat and n tie.
On their seasons records to date
Army shows to an advantage in the
offensive phase of the game, while

sive play.
The Cadets have rolled up a total
of more than 200 points in games
played thus far, with the 70 to 0
count against Lebanon Valley as the
largest single contribution to this
point total, whereas a half hundred
points have been scored against

When the quarterback is about to
forward pass, the other backtield
men and ends should play as near
as possible in the positions they play
when running plays are used. This
is necessary, otherwise the defense
can tell quite well when a forward
pass is about to be used, A very
important point to remember in
connection with forward passing is
that the plays should be so devised
that the defense cannot tell before
the ball is snapped, nor instantly
after the ball is snapped, whether
the play is to be a forward pass or
a running play. Forward passes, to
be most effective, should emanate
from the same formation as the
summing plays and all the plays
should as nearly as possible, in
their inception be made to look
alike. When this is done the de-
tense must diagnose each play after
IL has been started and 1t will make

speculate beforehand as to what will
