SOUTH CHURCH
 RALLIES ID WIN
Downs Tigers in Crushing
 Fourth Period Comeback

Held to Il points In the first three quarters and apparently set for a
 bad beating, the South Church quin-
 tet staged an avalanche-like rally in the final quarter and buried the
 Tigers under a 2S-1S tally. The
 game, which was played at the
 Boys club. was slow for the first three periods. neither team being able to do much in the way of shooting, but in the final quarter the South church opened up and dropped in field goals and 3 fouls.
 The Tigers started fast. Jacobi getting clear to sink sucker shot. Nelson followed with another double-pointer, and then Adams put the South church into the scoring with a neat shot. Arena dropped in floor shot and Suess followed with a foul. Adams and Parker also made good from the 15-foot line, and the score was z 10 at the quarter. In the second period the Congregationalists were held to three fouls, two by Parker and one by kilduff, while Arena. Nelson and Suess, brought the Tigers score to 13.
 The church lads showed improve ment in the third quarter and held the Tigers to a foul basket, but they were unable to overtake the orange terseyed crew and were still be- hind, 14 to Il. as the last quarter began. Suddenly the rattled Con- gregationalists braced; their passing and their shots found the mark. Adams brought them within one point of the Tigers and then Parker sent them ahead with an- other two-pointer. Suess was sent from the game on personals, and the South church piled up the score, kilduff coming through the Tiger defense 10 score almost at will, while kleist sank a pretty pair. The game ended with the church boys running away from their opponents.
 Adams and Arena made the most points for their respective teams, while Wilks put up his usual great battle at guard. An unusual fea- ture was that there was not a long shot made in the entire contest. |

FOOT BALL SECRETS
by SOL METZGER-
CHARGING on THE LINE.

In addition to the position of 4
tineman. which was discussed recent
ly. it is necessary that he charge
correctly if he is to break through
or stop play on defense or to open
up holes on offense. First Of all. he
must keep his legs under him. to use
q foot ball phrase. BY that | mean
he. should so crouch that his knees.
when his legs are bent. never are
behind his torso. Once his rear leg
is extended at full length in his charge
and he meets with opposition, his
drive is no longer effective. Remem-
ber that the legs are your pistOns in
charging. that they must ever he
under you so you can apply the full
power Of your big thigh muscles In
forcing your way through opponents
or iamming them back.
II YOU will take the second posi-
tion shown above and try to push
forward against player f your
weight who merely leans against you,
you will find that you cannot move
him. There is no drive to the straight
leg You will find that you have
to draw II up under you before you
can move this opponent. Line charE-
ing Is merely a series Of pistOn-Iike
drives with your legs. the rear leg
always applying the power. That Is
why Iincmen are taught to charge
with short. quick steps. They are
then able to apply almost constant
maximum power. The way coaches
drive this home is to have their line
men pair of and practice this method
of charging against each other dur
ing the early part Of the afternoon
