Badgers waited in vain for him to
try other runs. Always he disap-
pointed them. He often carried the
ball, but it was in the closeup for
nations, and most of the time he was
delegating the task to Walker, Detray
and Bezdek. Frequently he punted.
He was studying his opponents
closely, searching cannily for the
moment when he again could leap out
at them suddenly, catching them un-
prepared for his benumbinS tactics.
Such an opportunity came in the
second half, when the teams faced
one another in situation identical
to that which had produced Walter S
65-yard run. Obviously. he would not
try that trick again. But in Ecker
sails mind the thought persisted
that his opponents would reach just
such conclusion. Moreover, other
plays, including the famous Maroon
mass-on-tackle, which consisted of
sending all of the backteld men
through tackle for short gains, had
been stopped effectively. SO he did

KINKS IN GRID CODE
STRENGTHENED OUT
BY WALTER CAMP.

NEW YORK, September 2e.-The
big rules Interpretation meeting,
an annual event for foot ball coaches
and officials, held in New York over
the week end was peculiarly I'M
portant this season. This meeting
and the one held in Chicago last
week cleared up several vital oues-
tions.
First, it was ruled that any man
of the kicker's side may recover d
kicked bail which does not cross the
line of scrimmage, but it Will cost
his side down.
Second, a man who holds the ball
for kickoff may be "offside with
out penalty, but he must hold the
ball on the ground and not in the
air. The kicker may make a dent
with his heel in which to set the
Dau, but he may not dig a hole or
french for it.
Taken with the supplementary rule
issued earlier last week providing for
the advance of the side receiving the
kick off to a line 10 yards from the
ball in case the kicking side takes
the ball back to any position direct
ly behind the center OF the held,
these decisions seem to clear up all
moot questions about kicking.
Third, the rule forbidding the re-
ceiver of a forward pass to go out
of bounds and then come back into
the field of play to receive a pass
does not apply to d man past the
end line of his end zone and then
coming back in to receive the ball.
+. X. Hall chairman of the rules
committee. gave vigorous advice to
the officials to rule out any protec-
tive armor that was likely to be
dangerous to an opponent.
The gathering in Chicago and the
one here were in close harmony and
were more largely attended than ever
before. Stagg presided at the Chi
cago meeting and the writer at the
New York meeting.

and that would be disaster for Chica-
go. But in the active recesses of his
mind other thoughts held sway.
Twice, earlier in the contest, the
Maroon had reached a point where
a neId goal seemed possible. Twice
the Ecke~sall toe had directed the
ball toward the Badger posts. But
in the rain and the mre the pigskin
was obstinate. These attempts went
aStray.
Now, with the end of the combat in
sight. the great quarterback mar
shaled his resources for an attack
that would place him in position for
third attempt at field goal Us
ing almost the same formation that
had produced his two sensational end
runs, with the exception that he did
not play back as though for punt.
he pretended to pass the ball to
Bezdek, who carried out the fiction
of a low, hard charge at right end.
Instead he kept the pigskin himself,
and, sneaking around left end, ne
gotiated 52yard dash that placed it
on Wisconsin's 2o-yard line directly
in front of its goal posts.
Orders Punt Forma ton.
Now came the supreme test OF the
psychology applied by Eckersall. With
the goal but 20 yards away. he or
dered the punt formation which al
ready had so misled the enemy.
1t was only first down. Wisconsin
decided-quite fiably-that he in
receiving the snap back 10 yards
tended another around-end run. 1t
deployed its defense accordingly.
In a fash creation crumbled around

behind his line, dropped kick

such speed that the Badger ends and
backs scarcely took a step,
Frantic efforts of the Wisconsin
juggernaut availed nothing in the
remaining moments of play The
ball was rushed in series OF bruis-
ing smaSheS to within | inch of
the Chicago line, but there the
Maroon held like adamant. The game
ended to 0, with Wisconsin on the
short end. Having disposed of the
Badger threat, one OF its two great
est menaces OF the year. the Stagg
outfit went on to another triumph
this time over Michigan. to 0. that
gave ii the Western championship.
Properly speaking, the great
strategy which brought the Maroon
it's victory over Wisconsin did not
rest in single play. but in the repe-
tition OF that play at carefully fore
seen psychological intervals. Thus
carried out, the foot ball world was
afforded the spectacle OF tactical
demonstration which, in my opinion,
has never been surpassed and per
haps never equaled.
1t thrills me to the marrow even
though nearly 20 years have passed

softly. Just as before. he saw Reddy
Fox chasing his tail. Just as before.
he gave a little grunt Of surprise and
Reddy ran away.
The same thing happened a third
time By this time Busters curiosity
was so great that he had forgotten all
about the Green Forest and the nap
he had intended to take there in a
cool place. He wanted to find out
why Reddy Fox was chasing his tail
AS for Reddy, down inside he was
chuckling. He knew just what was
going on in Busters mind. He had
used that trick before. He had used
that trick on the bank of the Big
River to arouse the curiosity of
ducks and bring them in where he
could catch one of them. 1t had
worked then and it was working now
Smart Buster Bear was being led on
by curiosity just as those ducks had
been.
So .Reddy Fox gradually led Buster
Bear over to where grew the big
blueberry bush in which was the
paper castle-the big, gray paper
castle of the wasps. He took care
to lead Buster in such a way as to
approach that bush from the side
opposite the one on which the big
gray castle was fastened. From that
side it wasn't likely to be noticed at
!all. When Buster was where he could
hardly help seeing that bush covered
with delicious, big, ripe blueberries
Reddy stopped chasing his tail and
disappeared. Close by he hid where
he could watch and see what would
happen.
