on the street railway system Of Sea-
tile, the King county treasurer an
nounced that receipt of this money
would result in a lower general tax
levy for 1925. The money came in
too late to affect the 1924 levy.
Here is q striking illustration of
what is happening under the Seattle
policy of taking property off the tax
rolls. The assessment valuation of
the street railway property in 1919was
SIS, GAO, 900, and the tax for that year
was $403,017. All this went off the
rolls when Seattle decided to operate
the railway system.
Had this property remained on the
tax rolls, the valuation would have
been increased each succeeding year.
But even assuming that the valuation
of $5,640,00 had not been increased,
the property would have paid cash
in taxes for 1920 of $414,S22; for
1921, $685., 406.S0; for 1922, $685., 253.-
20; for 1923, $405, 177.60. In the five
years, 1919 to 1923 inclusive, the
state has therefore been deprived Of
a total of at least 81 SCI $3.50 in
taxes from this one source alone.
This huge and wholly unnecessary
burden has been carried by the tax
payers of the remainder Of the state.
Of course the street railway pro-
perty is only one item, and by no

means the largest, in the long list of
property taken off the tax rolls in the
course Of Seattle's public ownership
adventures. 1t is safe to say that be-
cause of Seattle's selfish policy in
this respect the state has lost not less
than $4,000, 900 in taxes. 1t is no
wonder that taxes have gone up
everywhere else in the state and on
all other classes Of real and personal
property. It seems almost useless to
talk about putting limit on taxation
or finding new sources of revenue, as
long as one or two big cities are
permitted to take property off the
tax rollssfaster than the rest of the
state can find means to make up the
deficiencies.
Seattle's municipal street railway,
power projects and port activities
have lifted property from the tax rolls
amounting to $53, ZOO, 900 in actual
value or an equalize assessable val
ne of $21, 800, 900, according to Les
ter M. Livengood, manager of the
Spokane Taxpayers Economy Lea
que. The deficit thus created in state
revenues is made up by larger tax
alton of every other city and county
in the state.
This means that Spokane is paying
tribute to Seattle at the rate Of $780,
300 year in extra taxes" says Mr.. !

FOLWELL DEVELOPER
OF AERIAL STRATEGY

Back in 1913. before the big
Eastern foot ball organizations
had grasped fully the pOtentialities
of forward passing. a team from n
small Pennsylvania college In
Saded seabOard territory and
spread the real gospel OF how it
should be done.
The eleven was Warrington and
Jefferson's, and the man who
equipped 1t with it's remarkabl
formations was Robert c. Foiwell,
sometime star back for the Uni
verSity of Pennsylvania.
Before that. even teams like
Yale. Harvard and Princeton used
either short or long passes. Wash
inEton and. Jefferson taught the
art of mixing long ones and short
ones in bewilderinE variations, and
even disreEarded the rule, OrthO-
dox mt the time, and made plays
over center. :. :. :. =. :.
"Have you seen Washington and
Jefferson forward pnss." was n
byword in foot ball circles after
FOlwelfS first success with the
team, in 1912, which brought in
vitations for games with Yale and
Harvard. FoIwell's men beat the
Bulldog two years in succession
and lost to Harvard by only a sin
gle point. In 1914. critics rated
w. and J. second only to Harvard.
Bob FolwelI played in the back
field Mt Pennsylvania from 1904
to 1907, inclusive, captaining the
team in 1907. In 1908 he coached
Pennsy; in 1909, 1910, 1911, In

Supreme Strategies in Foot Ball

Crimson. Because Of his skill in dis
rupting interference and at the same
time bringing down the man with the
ball l decided to transfer him. He
justified the change in the Yale
game, when he not only played first
class foot ball in every respect but
twice caught a pass with one hand
and, thrusting Off would-be tacklers
with his free arm, placed the ball in a
position from which his teammates
were able to score.
The bewildering aerial attack
which we had prepared for use
against the heavy Rutgers aggre-
cation relied largely upon Heyman,
and well did the boy bear his re-
sponsibility.
the newspaper men were unanimous
in declaring that the game showed
more than any previous contest what
could be done with the open forma-
tions. Straight passes, delayed
passes. double passes. fake forma-
tions and kicks which deviated in
length and placement as the circum-
stances demanded followed each other
in thrilling and puzzling array.
All our boys played great ball. but
Spiegel. at left half; Fleming, at
right half; Goodwin, at quarter;
Younkins. at right guard: Cruik-
shank, at center. and, finally, Hey
man, at right end, excelled them
selves. Rutgers probably exhibited
the better game as straight foot ball
goes. But the game was not decided
on that point. In the end, there

were. 1 believe I am justified In say
ing, outshone.
At the start of the game especially
we looked much the better team. We
scored touchdowns in the first and
second quarters and kicked goal in
the first. making the score at the
end of the half 13 to 0 in our favor.
But in the third period Rutgers came
back with a rush that carried US
off our feet. Garrett and Talman
hammered our line for repeated gains
and eventually Garrett went over
Tor touchdown. The kick for goal
went wide, leaving US still in the
lead. 13 to 6.
The fourth period found us in a
serious plight. Cruikshank was laid
out cold three times and finally had
10 De carried from the field. Fleming
was Knocked out and removed un-
conscious. Younkins was thought to
nave received a broken skull and
was ordered to hospital, but he
refused to go and stuck it out until
the hnish, when it was found that
MS frontal cheek bone had been frac-
tured. Meanwhile Garrett and Tai
man had continued their smashing
tacccs or the previous period and
were pushing us steadily back.
However, within Is yards of Wash
ington and Jefferson's goal line, and
with only second down and yards
TO go, Scarr, the Rutgers quarter,
decided to discard the old style game
and try a pass. Unluckily for him
the snapback was fumbled Wes-
becher, our right tackle, picked up
the ball and ran 20 yards to his own
4o-yard line before he was downed.

Evening star., 1924-10-13

AS originally invented, players
took preliminary station as shown
in Diagram A, with all the linemen
save the snapper back of the line of
Scrimmage one yard.
AS the center bent down over the
ball the remainder shifted simulta-
neously in the directions and to the
positions indicated by the arrows.
Instantly after they had all landed
in the positions shown in Diagram
B, the ball was snapped back to the
left half, or fullback. or whoever the
signal and play called to receive it,
and the play was on.
Of course, the shift could be to
the left as we'll as to the right, and
the linemen and backs could also
jump back into normal or balanced
formation.
This arrangement of the backs
was but one Of many that have since
been used to great advantage.
BY this maneuver it is also pos
sible to shift five linemen to one side
of the snapper, and leave only one
man on the other side. Backs can,
of course, be shifted in very many
different ways and different dis
tances, presenting, when so shifted,
many varying formations.

ing spirita A succession OF passes
enabled us to carry the ball to Rut-
gers 40-yard line. and then came the
great play of the battle-that vital
pass to Heyman.
Here Is how the play was made

from center; Goodwin (quarter)

the line as though to help provide
interference for Spiegel, turned, and

reverse play ran back to a point Is
yards behind the line Of scrimmage.

fensive line to its 30-yard line, where
he hesitated moment. McCrsight

as they charged in from both sides.
Then. with Heyman free, except for
the defensive quarterback, Goodwin
hurled the ball, deliberately aiming it
over Heyman's head SO that he would
get 1t on Rutgers 25-yard line.
So much for the pass. which prom
1Sed at least a measurable advance.
Its brilliance speedily was dulled by
a more unusual and more scintillat-
ing development. Heyman, on the run
with the start of the ball. noted with
one eye its flight, but kept the other
open to the operation of Scarr. This
eye told him that the Rutgers safety
man was charging down on him and
would tackle him as he received the
pass.
Opponent Taken by Surprise.
In a fash of unadulterated genius
the Washington and Jefferson end
performed one of the greatest feats
even seen on gridiron- Running at
full speed he leaped into the air,

arm so that 1t described an arc over

just caught the pigskin as it dropped

him. made a partial tackle near the
goal line.
No player ever got greater ova-
tion than the crowd accorded Heyma n
after that play. He deserved it. He

Improvement in its game with Rich

straight offensive play the team was
better against Richmond this year

Carolina and North Carolina State
meet this week, Thursday, at Raleigh
in the big fair week game. This game
is one of the biggest in the South

largest crowds. Probably there is
greater interest in the game than in

r RED Heyman was perfect in
r every department Of foot ball.
He not only would break up
interference, but he would bring
down the man carrying the ball. He
was never boxed i'll any of his games.
He had quick ability to diagnose a
play, which enabled him to protect
his own end Of the line, give power
full aid to his tackle, and, if neces-
sary, get around to the other ex-
tremity of the defensive wall. In
addition, he had to the full that
courage which once had suspected
him OF lacking.
But it was in handling and re-
cetving forward passes that 1 found
him to be astoundingly adept. He
had hands of such exceptional size
that he was able to catch the ball
with one while he warded off tacklers
with the other. He did this on so
many occasions that l concentrated
on developing him in the art.

Marines played against Vanderbilt

Virginia polytechnic Institute brings
to Washington annually powerful
elevens that measure up to any
in the South. In fact during the
last three years it is doubtful if more
than two or three teams have been at
any time stronger. That it is well up
among the first three or four southern
elevens this year is indicated by the
o-to-0 game it played with the team
of young giants representing Ala bama

at Richmond.
Maryland will oppose V. P. /. with a
team that should put up a real fight
and just how hard fought have been
the games here between the two is
shown by the scores of to Z, 10 to Z
and to Is. The game this year
gives promise of being decided by
just as close score.
ances of southern elevens last week
was the showing of Georgia against
Yale. Just by the bare margin of
goal kicked for the point after touch
down was the Bulldog able to nose
out a victory. And the Georgians
went home defeated, but happy in the
consciousness of having played a
brilliant game of foot ball and hav-
Ing held Yale to a closer score than

Judged on basis of press re-
ports, it was the superior condition
of Vanderbilt that gave it its victory
in the game with Marines. 1t is said
the Marines tired considerably and
that in the second half Vanderbilt
took advantage of that fact to drive
for long gains on line plays. That
better physical condition, incident
ally, probably would be the one ad-
vantage that the average strong col
lege eleven would have over an in
dependent or service team.
George Waxhington's victory in it's
game with Western Maryland is an
achievement of which the University
may we'll feel proud. After the show
ing the Western Maryland eleven
made against Bucknell, it was
thought that the Hatchetites would
be against the stiffest kind of
proposition. However, they rose to
the occasion and won by a decisive
score.
Georgetown's defeat of King Col
1ege was expected, despite the ad
vance reports of the strength of the
later. A week ago a man who had
watched King College practice told
the writer that King College had a
good team, but not good enough to
beat Georgetown and that George
town would win.
