who have not been coached to meet
Some coaches claim that against
well coached teams IT is less eneeIl.e
than a system of attack used from
Formations which do no shift before
the snap of the ball. Their argument
is that when linemen shift rapidly
and the ball is snapped the instant
they alight in their new positions
tain to work in coordination with
each other as when standing In the
same position without shifting. They
say that the offensive linemen tax
ing out opponents, can do so far
better when the position of the op-
snap Of the ball. On shift plays this
is not possible. because all good
teams shift with the offense, SO it
is Impossible for a .lineman on at
tack to tell where the man he is to
take is going to be when the play
starts.
Shift plays have only worked when
the movement of the men has been
so perfected by practice that all
shift together and strike together
Endless practice is needed to perfect
such perfect timing. High school
teams rarely use a shift attack effec-
lively because experienced players
are needed to play this onense per-
fectly. n

FORMER BELT GIRL HIT
BY INTERURBAN CAR
Suffered Small Fracture, Bad
Scalp Wound and Severe
Bruises on Body.

Mrs. Nan Cary, oldest daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. John JEFF
fries Of Belt was seriously in
jured one week ago Sunday in
Oakland, Cal, by being struck
by an Interurban car. News of
the accident has been Of the
scantiest until this morning
when a letter was received from
brother, j. j. Jeffries, an ex-
tract from whose letter we APP
pend. He says:
while the x-Ray showed a
small fracture, believe that the
worst is the scalp wound which
was very bad. Her body was
also badly bruised by the fall
and the rolling on the hard pave
ment. She was hit by a South
ern Pacific electric train at Ade-
line avenue at 62nd street. This
is the boundary between Berke-
ley and Oakland and this street
is the main artery Of travel for
several Of the electric lines be-
tween San Francisco and Oak
land. Right at this point where
she was hurt there are several
street crossings with very little
Of safety precautions on the
part of either the electric roads
or the cities.
Nan had been to little gro
Gerry store across the street from
her home and was returning
with some groceries when she
got between two electric trains
and was hit by the rear gate Of
one Of the s. p. trains. This part
struck her glancing blow on
the back Of the head knocking
her TO the ground. Had it been
the front end of the car there
would have been no chance for
her.
