FOOT BALL SECRETS
When Bucking the Line.
~ Sol Metzge

Each one. of the backs above is
running low with his eyes up so
he can pick his opening or avoid
a tackler after he gets through
the line. Each is in a strong po-
sition to drive ahead when a tack
Ter approaches or when the line
has not been ripped apart for him.
But the runner on the left, as YOU
will note, is striking straight
ahead.
Obviously, he can get through a
smaller opening than the runner
on the right who is coming to the
line at an angle. The latter also is
easier to tackle and to throw for a
loss as his force is at an angle to
the line of scrimmage. The tackler
can strike him from the side and
throw him backward, whereas. the
runner coming straight ahead has
his full force directed in that
way and can frequently drive the
tackler backward and gain a few
additional, precious yards in that
way.

Yale was really beaten in the first
half, when the team learned that sim
