F FOOTBALL WILL.
STAY, Says
RoCKNE
Those Who Would Danish
1t Have No Substi-
tnte to Offer. E

Football is here to stay, according
to Knute Rockne, addressing the Chi.
cago Rotary Club the other day.
IT the academic professors want
to- abolish this competitive sport, what
have they to offer in its place? There
are just two kinds of boys. in school
today-one is normal and the other is
a dancer. ~
Neither are players automatons
subject alone TO the signals from the
coach on the siGelines-and no mid.
western coach now does that. PIay-
ers must think out their own solutions
to the various plays, put all their in
genuity and courage into each play IL
they would succeed. THEY'LL get
knocked down many times, but so
will life among men roll over them
time and time again.
But if they get up each time and
strive harder they will admit no de-
feat and be victorious oftener.
IF football were only to keep boys
physically fit, it is an expensive route
for a simple process-a victrola, a
dumb-bell and volley ball could keep
them fit bodily.
"But in the great girdiron game
players must think quickly, live clean
ly and act with great chivalry. The
character developed by athletic COM
petition is extremely useful in the
business Of life. To mobilize ones
skill, energy and mentality and com
pete successfully with others of equal
ability brings out ones best talents.
Concentration and self-control and
credit to the men who interfere d
make possible spectacular gains
these. too, are qualities worthy of

GIBSON HERO OF BOSTON
FANS AS HE WAS In S. A.
BY JOHN DROHAN.

| young Texan TO break in with this
| duo and in the middle of the same sea-
son he was sent to Nashville as part
and parcel OF some trade for an in
fielder. When he landed in the land
of the sweet magnolia, he became first
string catcher right off the reel.
He was with Nashville for two sea
sons, being rated one Of the best re
ccivers in the league. In 1915 the late
Mike Finn, who developed Iris Speak
er and numerous other stars OF the ma
tional pastime, purchased him for LIS
Little Rock team. "Gibby" was one
of the main factors in Little Rock 1
success for the seasons of 1915 and
1916. He was then sold TO the Beau
mont team of the Texas League.
SLATTERY SENDS HIM UP.
The fans of Beaumont failed TO sup
port the team and Gibson was sold 10
San Antonio in 1917. He remained
with San Antonio through the sea
sons of 1917, 1918, 1919 and 1920. 1t
was in the latter season that JACK
Slattery, present Boston College coach.
who was then scouting for the Braves,
saw him in action. He followed the
San Antonio team around the circuit
for a week and advised his employers
to purchase the catcher. At the same
time he recommended the purchase
ofsAl Nixon, one of the greatest bail
hawks who ever played in the wide,
open spaces Of Braves Field.
Both of these Texans made the
grade. Gibson, for the five seasons
that lie has been with the Braves, has
been one Of the most versatile players
on the team. He has played first base
whenever the regular first saeker mas
been injured. with credit 10 himself.
Behind the plate he is smart and
holds the pitchers up well. Much OF
the success Of the Braves pitchers this
year may be attributed to his receiy-
ing, without detracting from their abil-
ity. He is without question one OF the
fastest running catchers in the league.
Jack Slattery claims that he has
never seen him drop a foul fly. There
is no player on the Braves club that is
more feared by an opposing pitcher
than "Gibby.7 He bats from both
sides Of the plate, depending upon the
pitching he faces. He showed his
value as q hitter yesterday when lie
poled out the longest hit Of the game,
which was converted into run, which
doomed w mighty important in the
ninth inning when the Cubs put q
couple on the sacks.
He is one of the most amiable play
ers on the team. He never sulks. He
gives his best to the club at all times.
il was this CHARACTERISTIC that i'm
pressed Jack Slattery when he recon-
mendcd his purchase. The Braves
have never had occasion to regret his
purchase.

BOSTON. Oct. 10.-At Braves
| Field when the Boston team is be-
hind with a couple of men languishing
on the sacks and q weak hitter COM
| ing up Manager Bancroft yells,
/ "Gibby bat for that fellow.' 4 1.-the,
speedy-looking boy comes from the
dugout, picks up bat and goes TO
the plate prepared to hit. And the
best part of it, he usually does hit.
That's Frank Gibson, Brave catcher
and pinch hitter, who generally hits in
the pinches. He was just beginning
TO come into his own this season. Al
though he has been a member of the
Braves since 1920, his worth has never
been appreciated until this season. His
catching and receiving have been as
good as any in the league. There are
few catchers in the National League
who are rated above the agile Texan.
He is one Of the most earnest ball
players on the Braves roster. Last
year, due to the fact that he felt he
had been sighted the year previously
in not being allowed to catch. he was
lOath to report. Manager Bancroft
had just taken charge of the team
and assured him that il he had the
ability he would have the privilege Of
catching every game if be so desired.
This assurance on the part Of Banny
was lust what Gibson wanted. He
reported May 10 and took part in
many games last season.
He was born in Omaha, Neb. 1t
was in this thriving city of the Far
West that he received his first dia
mond experience. He played first
base most Of the time, only going in
10 catch when the occasion OF man
agcr demanded it. An old-timc ball
player. Eddie Roban by name, saw
Gibson perform and liked his looks.
ROban ran an amateur team in Wich-
tia Falls. Texas. IN connection with an
amusement park. The name Of the
team was the Irish Lads and. accord
ing 10 Frank, was some pumpkins in
the Panhandle country.
YOUNG AS HE LOOKS.
He stuck around with the Irish
Lads until 1912, when the Dallas
team Of the Texas League sought his
services. That season he caught more
than 100 games and was considered
one Of the best major league prospects
in the Lone Star state. As a matter
u history. Detroit purchased his r.
lease at the end Of the 1912 season and
be reported 10 the Tigers training
camp the following spring.
Hughev Jennings was then manager
Of the Tigers. Oscar StaBage, a vet
Gran Of many seasons, and Red
Mckee who had been with the team
a couple Of years previously. were
doing a very neat job Of the catching.

BOUQUET TO WILLIAMS

From my own knowledge and that
knowledge confirmed by the best of
Middle Western opinion, | maintain
that DIR. ii. J.. Williams at Minnesota
was the best attack coach the West
ever produced. OF course, he was
originally from Yale. but he has been
identified with Middle Western foot
ball so long that this is where he be-
longs. BY the same token he was not
much Of defensive man. There were
times when his own stuff was turned
against him.
1t is pleasant also to record the
fact that there are many western foot
ball men WHO are willing 10 acknowi.
edge the great debt they owe to How
ard Jones. it has gone out Of fash
ion for the coaches to contend that
they invented everything they are
teaching. And Howard Jones Ger
tainly has left an indelible impression
on Middle Western football in every
branch Of the game.
SO far as i have been able TO
learn Rockne at Notre Dame is the
only Middle Western coach who sticks
closely TO the balanced line on at
tack. 1t has been contcnded that be-
cause Of the burden Of intricate pass
ing on the modern center he has lost
q great deal Of his offensive charge.
This is true beyond a doubt, but there
are other gains in the balanced for
nation not 10 be overlooked.

EAST USES BOX
GRID DEFENSE
EXCLUSIVELY
By HERBERT REED
Copyright. 1925. by Universal Service.


CHAMPAIGN, ILL.,, Oct. 10.-While,
in the main, eastern and western foot
ball are on all tours fundamentally,
so far as 1 have been able to see, in
the western brand this fall there are
few differences which may or may
not be temporary. These differences
are mainly in defense.
The East has borrowed some Of its
offense from the West and the West
has returned the compliment by Dor
rowing some Of its defense from the
East. Just as the Middle West has
gone further and dared more in at
tack, so the East has ventured further
in the way Of defensive innovations.
Rockne has stated that Dobie
brought the box defense TO the East.
He is not quite accurate in that state
ment. for the box defense was we'll
known, if little used. even as long ago
as his playing days when he was learn
ing football.
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1925-10-11
NO BOX DEFENSE.

1t may sound odd to say that in
the early games, at least, the West
has shown itself more conservative on
defensive. less willing to risk the first
line of defense to the six-man line.
The western center stays up in the
front line. In the early games, at
least, the box defense has not ap-
peared. The teams have used the dia-
mond secondary behind a seyen-man
line. This was to provide an early
defense against the forward pass, and
it was this alert pass defense that was
Immediately responsible for Nebraska's
triumph over Illinois.
To avoid argument with sensitive
souls 1 shall grant the West the in
yention Of the box defense, and grant
that the West took it eastward. But
when it arrived in the East the east-
ern coaches did something with IL.
They inserted their loose ceIiter at
one corner Of it. left six men well
spaced on the line and still had their
safety man. Just why certain see
tioHg of the west won't take UP with
the loose center | do not know. /

ONE FOR EAST BALL

The ordinary signals used by the
catcher are one finger for a fast ball,
two for Il curve. and a closed fist fcJ
slow ball. Some catchers use one
finger for the fast ball, nothing AT
az all for the curve lin other words
if they hide their hand in the nit
and you do not see any finger il
means a curve ball.) OF course, some
catchcrs use different signs than these,
but these are the arbitrary signs and
used by most players.
The first baseman usually has a
sign with the catcher 10 try 10 pick
n man off the bag. This is used
in most cases when the bases ara
filled and the basrmau plays back.
He flashes q sign 10 the catcher. the
catcher, in turn. signs for pitch
