THE QUESTION.
What makes the teams go
stale toward the end of a
season?

re the open game became a reality.
the basis of all successful play to-
to give their best efforts Men who
are overworked soon grow sick of
the sight of a football and a slump is
sure to result. The teams which usual
ly slump are those which have lost a
game or two and are then worked
extremely hard to shape up for a
contest Immediately thereafter. No
amount of talk or instruction can put
them in a happy frame of mind.
Some coaches think that the best
way to rally a team after defeat is
to get them away from foot ball for a
few days. Others believe the better
method is to have light practice. En-
couragement, rather than condemna-
tion, is needed at this stage of de-
velopment. The best plan to follow
is to lean toward the side of too little
practice, rather than too much.
