LINEMEN ARE SELDOM
APPRECIATED
tBY ED MCKINLEY
pennsylvania, Ali-America Tackle,
1920

Because of the many duties i'm
posed. 1t is apparent why the tackle
as well as other linemen must be
quick thinking, fast and aggressive.
The tackle must be far more than
he Is considered by the average
spectator. merely q player, a neces-
asry evil to make up tho II players
called for by the rules.
! don't believe there ever was a
lineman In the history Of footbaii
that was given the credit duo him
for his work on the offensive.
Well do ! recall an incident that
took place at the beginning Of the
fourth quarter at ono Of the big
games at Pennsylvania. that forcibly
brings out my point that the for
wards seldom receive the proper
praise for their efforts.
Two fresh linemen and an I'M
heard of backfeld man were sent
into the game. I say an unheard
Of backfield man because the player
had never been heard OF before or
since.
To make long story short, this
backfield man, simply because he
was fresh while the others were
tired out was given the ball repeat
eddy on plays that were directed
over the two freshly substituted
linemen.
AS a result, in the final quarter
this player scored two touchdowns
and was heralded as a hero. The
reason for the halfback's success
was that the two fresh linemen pit
ted against two tired players, opened
up holes big enough to have driven
the proverbial wagon through.
The substitute was in the head
lines of every sport page In the
country the next day. His long
gains featured every account Of the
game. It was pointed out that his
work was easily the best OF the
game that his play alone prevented
the rout OF his teammates.
The two forwards, who had made
1t possible for the unheard Of back
field man to filter through for long

gains didn't even get passing men
ton. Yet 1t was their offensive tao
tics that made possible the success
full execution of the many plays by
tho unheard Of backteid man that
resulted in two touchdowns. Most
any player could have done the
same thing under the conditions.
Even the coaches were fooled In
thinking a new star had been I'M
earthed. 1t was not for weeks that
the football fans ceased talking
about the deeds of this player.
