pable of handling defensive tackles,
affords a fast and shifty backfield a
chance to develop an attack which
keeps a defense under constant men
tai as well as physical pressure.
Wherever possible with the material
available. the strong tendency of
coaches is to develop powerful flank
ing wings with some sacrifice in
weight for speed and interference for
running guards This increases often
Sive power.
This is the outstanding feature of
the Utah offense Colorado Aggies,
outstanding in the race for the title
ing, also focus their offensive thrust
at the defensive tackles with the in
cont Of crushing them or tempting
the defensive end to more effectively
pleet this thrust by charging into the

called upon to outflank the end.
This play is patterned after the old
around end play. The tail back. car

front man of the backheld formation
who is CrouChing under cover of the
line. The front man in turn passes
back to the end, sweeping around the
outside of the play. Opportunely used.
this triple pass play has proved to be
the break in many closely contested
games over several years of foot ball.
= Colorado Aggies, using this constant
threat and with a good aerial attack,
have given Coach Harry Hughes a
well balanced offensive.

1t may be just one of our silly femi.
nine ideas, but it seems to us that if
there is one place on the golf course
where man and woman players are on
an equal basis, that place Is on the
green. Putting is not a matter of
strength, but of control and accuracy.
Yet, when Glenna Collett sunk a
particularly long putt yesterday in
| her match with FRITZ Stifel and the
| two pros, Farrell and Diegel, on the
Washington Golf and Country Club
course, we heard numerous COM
ments in deep bass to the effect that
her shot was truly remarkable-for a
girl.
To our inexperienced eye 1t looked
like a beautiful putt for anybody, but
no more remarkable for a girl than
for a man. There is no earthly rea-
son why a girl should not match her
masculine opponents in putting If she

interested in the game than at any

in his mind
1t was easy for him to make the
basket ball team and the track team
as freshman. In those lines of sport
he eXCelled. Especially promising was
he on the track. Il believe that the
track is the great place to build up a

Reds father was agreeably sur.
prised when his son approached him
that Spring and said something about
working during the Summer vacation.
Remembering several things about
the joys of caddying on the golf links.
Red advanced the idea that he was
getting too big for such employment

ice wagon.

A 16-year-old high school freshman

and asked for a job on the delivery
truck that Summer.
Thompson looked at the candidate
and was not impressed.

hesitation the East may have had in
placing the laurel wreath upon the
sorrel-thatched head of Red Grange
or any SketicciSm as to the greatness
of this artful dodger of the gridiron
has vanished in the wake of the
meteoric swath he cut through the
mud of Franklin Field, where he led
the Illinois attack that crushed Penn
sylvania and simultaneously shattered
any national championship hopes en-.
tertained by the Red and Blue.
Grange, averaging more than a
first down-about II yards-for every
one of the 81 times he handled the ball
fully lived up TO the most extravagant
claims previously made for him and
esta blished beyond question his place
among the greatest foot ball players
of all time.
Seasoned critics, veterans who had
seen in their prime such stars as
Willie Heston, Jim Thorpe, Ned Ma
han, Ted Coy, Charley Barrett, George
Gipp and Eddie kaw, We're unit in
proclaiming Grange the greatest
ground gamer the most elusive run
ner of them all, and when all the evi.
dehce for the Illinois fash has been
weighed there is not much to dispute
these claims.
The circumstances of Grange s
achievements made them loom all the
greater, for he triumphed over OBJ
staCles at every turn. Before the
most critical eyes he has ever faced,
he slashed forward on a boggy field
that was expected to slow him up and
ripped to pieces a defense that was
regarded as the strongest in the East,
one that had been especially drilled
to check his charges.

In figure ! we see the forward
swing pictures at the point where the
clubhead is just about TO pass through
the ball. There is great forward
energy on the players part right here
and this has been intensified by the
fact that the clubhead. gaining speed
in its downward flight, attains very
near its maximum speed right here.
Because OF this great forward energy
there is tendency for the middle part
of the body to shove forward with the
club. This lets the left hip out loosely
into the line of flight.
Just as the ball is hit, or a fraction
of an instant afterward. the left hip
shoots outward slightly into the di-
rection line, but this is not so much
to hit the bail with the hip as it is to
accommodate the necessary body ac-
ton in the swing. and the player who
designs to hit with his hip entirely

will have some trouble with his shots.
You hit with the clubhead.
In figure We see the result of let
ting the hip go forward loosely at the
hitting instant. The body here lacks
resistance to the forward action of the
clubhead-a leverage action very
much desired. The instant the hip
moves out, as it has here. the hands,
arms and perhaps the shoulders let
down a little on the clubhead, so that
, instead of hitting harder with the
clubhead, you hit easier.
Hold the body in line with the ball
| and stiffen the left leg in the forward
swing to make sure of keeping the
body in line. You should finish the
swing with the body still in line with
where the ball rested. II the body
moves away forward of the line you
are giving the left side too much free

one of the hunters eagerly. So the
guide agreed to get supper while the
two of them took skirmish around
for bears.
The hunters had not gone far when
one of them grabbed the arm of the
other and pointed to a thicket just
ahead of them. There's one"' he
cried. and both got ready to shoot.
The bear turned toward them just as
both rifles cracked. Both missed.
One of the men found his gun had

looked up and saw the bear coming
toward them. Get him!' he cried,

never slipping or falling, and added

"So's mine" cried his companion,
Get your knife out quick!'
The first hunter fumbled for his
knife, but in the meantime the other
had fixed his gun. He fired at the
oncoming animal four times, and the
bear dropped. AS he dropped he fell
into a little gully. The hunters were
quaking with the excitement and
their close call. They had no time
for the bear. They heaved deep signs
and went back to camp. The guide
asked them what they'd fired at. "A
bear" said one of the hunters, I'VE
left him up in a little gully"
SO the guide went up there and
found a newly killed porcupine.
Just one of the tricks that over
expectation sometimes plays even on
experienced hunters.

Miss Collett is the first woman s
golf champion to appear in Washing
ton for nearly two decades. She had
never been in the city before for more
than a few moments between trains
and the feminine golfers of the capital
turned out hundreds strong to see
their champion in action They saw
her below championship form, lacking
the sting in the iron play that has
made her famous on two continents.
But they saw d Miss Collett who
showed in her every action a great
golfer and a shot maker without a
peer among the feminine player of
this nation.
The gallery. we'll handled and courte-
Gus to the players, was well rewarded
for it's efforts in Drawing the early
mud and patches of snow which dot
ted the course in the morning as the
match got under way.
For Miss Collett, even though she
is the titleholder, did not stand out
head and shoulders above Miss Stifel

played remarkably fine golf on her
first journey over the difficult Wash
ington course and exhibited a game
that was very nearly the equal of that
of Miss Collett.
Miss Stifel made one OF the finest
where she played a hooked spoon shot
around a large treee to the green 200
wards away, her ball stopping only
S feet from the cup. AT the same
hole in the afternoon Miss Collett and
Farrell halved in birdie 3's.
Miss Collett had a score Of "a in the
morning and 81 in the afternoon. Miss
Stifel's score could only be approx
mated, as she picked up her ball sew
tt,o nf
two matches. Miss Collett's 38 on the
final nine of the day was one of the
best exhibitions of the game ever
furnished here by a woman player.
The course was heavy and slow, dot
ted with clumps of snow in the morn
ing, which disappeared in the after
noon. Unfamiliar to the two girls,
they nevertheless showed little lack OF
Judgment Of distance and played very
we'll under the circumstances.
Farrell played the better golf of the
two professionals, scoring a 72 in the
morning and a 70 in the afternoon.
His in nine of 32 In the afternoon
was a remarkable piece of golf. the
Quaker Ridge pro having no less than
five 3s on his card. He had a a at
the last hole to tie the course record,
but hooked his second shot and failed
to get down the putt for the 4.
Diegel had 72 in the morning, but
picked up his ball on the troublesome
! fifteenth hole in the afternoon after
going into the ditch. Farrell scored
his third successive on the four
| teenth hole in the morning round, but
! failed to get a deuce in the afternoon.
| At the close Of the match the
woman players were presented with

Representative c. c. Carlin on behalf

FOOT BALL SECRETS
BY Sol NIetZgeT

Fumbles are generally the result of
poor passing by the center rush. In
feeding the ball to a back who is to
hit the line, he should always lob il
at the backs belt, as in the upper
illustration. Then, if it Is not passed
too hard, i'm other words, il it ia
lobbed, the back will have no difficulty
i'm receiving and holding it,
If he passes it a bit too low, as in
the lower illustration. the back gen
orally fumbles the ball, as he is not
able to lean over and catch it with
out losing his drive and balance. A
high pass by the center is also likely
to be fumbIed by the back.
In passing to back who is to hit
the line the center should aim for his
belt line and always lob the ball rather
easily. A swift short pass here, even
if in the right position, will frequently
be fumbled.
