Burton High School. If all the
students sail GU these ships, the
committee that selects the names
to be inscribed ON the honor cup
next year will have a hard time
coming to decision.
Work was begun in earnest on
the gridiron last week. The team
was divided up for a little oppo-
sition. Scrimmage was started
the first of the week which became
more vigorous later. A practice
game is planned with Vashon for
some day this week.
The Seniors held a meeting
Friday the 18th. They decided
to have the school give a program
to raise money for the curtain
fund. We hope this will be carri-
ed through as a new curtain for
the stage is needed badly.
The school library is open again
and as they have not been doing
a rushing busin IS it would be
well to get some new books. 1t
appears as though all the advanced
students have read a great number
and the Freshmen are too 81 en-
to go to the library to obtain a
little extra knowledge.

FOOT BALL IN EAST
TO BE ENDED TODAY
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, November 27.-East-
ern foot ball was at the end of the
trail today with half a dozen con-
tests.
Knute Rockne's powerful Hoos-
iers from Notre Dame. went to Pitts
burgh to play Carnegie Tech, which
has come with a menacing rush after
two defeats in early season.
Notre Dame has swept aside at
least one representative of every sec
ton of the country but the Far West
in gaining a grip on the national
championship.
Boston witnesses the annual strug
gle of the Jesuit rivals, Holy Cross
and Boston College. The Worcester
eleven, meeting the Boston moleskln
artists of Coach Frank Cavanaugh
for the last time under his leader
ship. is conceded a chance to stage
the final startling upset of season
that has seen favorites battered re-
peatedly. Boston College has but q
single tie to smirch its record, while
Holy Cross bowed to Boston Univer
sity, after an early winning streak.
Georgetown's mighty eleven rings
down the curtain on a successful sea
son in an intersectional match at De-
troit.
West Virginia ends a long cam
paign in an all-State battle with
Davis-Elkins at Clarksburg and Buck
nell hangs up the moleskin for the
year after combat with Dickinson.

When Yale and Princeton met
last week and a year ago, the
danger man for the Tigers was
Jake Slagle. A year ago Slagle
wrecked both Yale and Harvard
by his masterful lodging in the
open field. He has a stunt that
young backs would like to know
about so they can practice it before
another season. as it is q cork1ng
scheme for lodging a tackler COM
ing from the side when on an
open-field run.
Slagle comes tearing up the field
like a flash (F'igure u and notes a
tackler bearing down on him from
his left. AS he propels his right
leg forward, he turns the toe of
his foot outward and strikes the
ground on the ball Of his foot Zig
ure q. He Immediately twists to
his right on that foot, raising his
left arm at the same time in order
to slap the tackler's arms as he
turns Ffgure 81. Slagle, by means
of this twist, actually changes his
direction at a right angle, thus
pulling himself away from the
tackler. AS he does so, he strikes
down with his left arm in order to
push away the tackler's hands,
should he be that close to him
(Figure ~. The entire maneuver is
made at top speed. 1t leaves the
tackler feeling quite foolish, as you
may imagine.

POLITICS STILL SETTLING
NMAJOR LEAGUE CIRCLES

NEW YORK, November 27.-The
National League played clever poll
tics-for the moment-when 1t de-
cided to hold it's annual meeting in
New York and not in Chicago. After
it is through deliberating it will be
transported to the West in time to
meet with the American League men
in joint session on the shore of Lake
Michigan.
The National League feels itself
quite Independent Of the American
League, having taken unanimous
pledge to vote again for Judge Lands
as commissioner Of base ball and haV-
ing won Charles Comiskey over to the
Judge, thus inserting a wedge in the
skeleton Of, the junior major organ
iZation.
The combined efforts Of several In.
terests in base ball were bent toward
the elimination of this bit of politics.
Yet there may come time within
the next five years when the Nation
al League will wish the American to
cooperate with 1t, and as likely as
not the American League will retail
late when the opportunity offers:
Then the junior circuit finally Will
rid itself of the choler and spleen

GRID SHIFT DEALT BLOW

Virtually Abolished When Action Requiring Stop Of
Two Seconds Before Play Starts Is Taken.
Michigan and Chicago Bury Hatchet.

~ HICAGO, November 27.-The
virtual abolition of the shift
in Western Conference foot
ball next year, by vote of the
coaches at the annual sched-
ule meeting to enforce a full two
second stop before the start of plays,
promises to revolutionize the game.
1.-THE most radical step since the
forward pass" one coach said, and his
opinion that the move will result next
Fall in Big Ten attacks from open
or semi-punt formations was generally
held among the athletic directors.
Eight of the Conference elevens
used the shift to a greater or less
extent this season, only Michigan
being unaffected by yesterdays dec1-
sion, and Ohio State only to slight
degree.
Must Revise Systems.
The offensive systems of Minnesota,
Chicago and Indiana will have to be
entirely made over, and changes made
in the tactics of the others, coaches
said.
Opposing teams from outside the
Conference will be expected to observe
the ruling, it was pointed out. and
Coach Robert Zuppke of Illinois. who
led the attack that resulted In the
decision, has announced his intention
of waging a similar fight at the rules
committee meeting in New York this
Winter.
Zuppke stood out for official action
to fix a definite standard to insure a
complete halt Of the offensive team
before 1t charges after a shift, rather
than leaving the decision TO harassed
referee and after Coach Spears of
Minnesota volunteered to drop the
play the Gophers gave foot ball years
ago, there was a landslide in support
Of abolition.
The action of the Minnesota coach
smoothed out one of the difficulties in
the schedule session, leading Mich
igan to agree to meet the Gophers
next Fall, the shift being chief fac.
tor in Michigan's inclination not to
schedule the game.
