I Pelly's arrest comes first. Soon as
you locate him, bring him out Of the
range"
At dawn Lee was upon the road
There had been rumors-recurrent
rumors Of gold find in Stony range
that summer, but the nearer Lee got
no the range the less explicit the
news became
He passed a number Of men on their
way south, morose and sullen, but
ready enough to pour out their
grievance that a summers prospect
Ing had failed to show even a trace
of color anywhere.
Lee had listened to their stories and
then gone on, leaving the impression
that he was prospector on a be-
lated journey to the range.
And now at last the range lay In
front Of him, uplifting Its wild peaks
Into the glory Of the autumn sunset.
Lee felt his heart uplifted too. This
was life at Its most zestful-the world
spaces, and the hunting OF the king of
all created beings-Man.
So, leading his horse, Lee passed
down the long slope toward the set
Element Of Little Falls. Soon he was
abreast Of the first shacks, set In the
clearings among the stumps- Then
came rows Of uniformly ugly wooden
cottages, a small mission church with
tin roof, bank, and a small hotel
announcing Itself by a dilapidated
shingle.
Lee fastened his horse to the hitch
Ing post in front and entered. On
the right of the interior passage was
the dlnIng-room, on the left the parlor,
with the furniture piled up In cor
ners and the floor strewn with duffle-
bags and blankets.
A passage ran past 4 flight Of
rickety stairs, and from a room at the
end Of this came the clamor Of voices.
Here Lee found the bar, packed
tight. and running wide Open Be

staked out sleeping claim upon the

A small negro boy, carrying large

gan to ring it, swaying to and fro with
cheerful grin. as if he were tied to
the clapper.
At the sound Of the cracked tones
the men began to straggle out of the
bar into the dining-room, where they
took their seats on long benches

with a stained. tattered oilcloth, on
which were placed cheap knives,
forks, spoons and plates.

BY now the crowd of e1-prospectors
had formed a wide circle about the
girl, standing as far as the pas
sage would permit, staring and
scrutinizing her frankly, and looking
sheepishly away whenever her un-
embarrassed glance fell upon any Of
them. Lee, hearing a muttering be-
hind him, turned, to see the big breed
staring at the girl and whispering e1-
citedly to his companion. His red
headed partner was tugging at his
arm as II to restrain him.

him expostulate.
Suddenly the breed shook of the
others grip and lurched forward.

Gridiron Strategy
OPEN FIELD RUNNING
inv EDnIE LrAWl
(BY EDDIE KAW)

Cornell, All-Amerlca Back, 1927
or course, all backs want TO be
considered good open field runners,
but ! am Of the opinion that most
open field runners are born and not
made.
You can teach a back how TO hold
a ball and when to follow his inter-
ference and how and when TO use
the straight arm but he needs
natural ability to be clever in the
open field. Neither can you tell
him when to dodge and when to SO
straight.
The first thing, extensively, a
backfleld man should learn Is To
follow and use his interference
And next to go where the play is
called as far as possible.
Always use your interference and
follow 1t as long as It is ahead and
useful to you. Only as last re-
sort leave it. Many coaches have
to spend a whole year teaching this
to prep and high school stars. il
Is a lesson that has to be learned
and the younger the bettor.
Another fault that should b.
corrected early is the manner il
which the back carries the ball
When going into the line I advise
a back TO have both hands on tn,
ball always. At all other times t.
have it tucked uider his arm will
the fingers and palm of the hanC
around the end.
Never carry it out In front II
both hands. Many fumbles occu
from carrying the ball In the hand
and trying TO tuck it away the las
moment before being tackled.
| Another very essential thing 70
a halfback to know is that nearl
all plays except forward passes an
end runs are considered line buck
and are primarily for three yard
gain.
| If back would make three yard
every time he carried the ball h
would be considered a great bach
II he would strive for these thre
yards more and long runs less h
would be much more valuable to hi
team.
