(BY "SWEDE" OBERLANDER) Dartmouth. All America Halfback

Dartmouth, All America Halfback 1925)
 The forward pass no longer is merely q threat, it is footballs greatest scoring weapon.
 Forma7iy the forward pass never vas used as play of the last re- sort, as trick play, a, a gamble hurled promiscuously at some feet ing target.
 But in the course of its develop ment it now has reached the stage where 1t is used as an integral part of the attack.
 In other words, it fulflls the function of a dependable ground graining play. This growth suc- ceeded because of the recognition Of three important factors, slow disclosure of the play, perfection in timing between the passer and re- ceirer, and precision in execution.
 Some college teams even today have yet to coordinate these three attainments.
 By slow disclosure, l mean that the forward pass play should begin exactly as running play. The first movements of the backs should correspond to the first movements of rush.
 It is disastrous for the passer to fall back immediately upon rcceiv- ing the ball. He has telegraphed 10 hls opponents secondary defense what he plans to do and they in turn have the opportunity to cover the eligible men bearing the field upon them.
 Thus it is easy for the defensive man to keep the receiver between himself and the pass. Conso- quently 1t is not difficult for him to make q spectacular interception and dash or for touchdown.
 The passer should make a few rapid strides. keep low, and have the ball concealed as much as pos sible by turning his body away from the scrimmage line.
 After the same fashion, if a pass 10 to pt dtttiuptcu from KICK formation the passer should carry out the play with as much decep- tion as possible. A fake run, or a fake drop kick or punt will achieve this object.
 The essential purpose of a slow disclosure is 10 deceive the second- ary offense. It is desired to bring them out of position as much as possible and the easiest method is to bring them up close to the line expecting a line thrust.
 The new additional penalty of five yards for each incompleted pass in the same series of downs after one has failed places a premium upon the combination and perfection of these three important factors: 1-Slow disclosure of the play. 2-Perfection in timing between passer and receiver 3-Precision in execution.

|HEAVIES SHOW LITTLE TO
 STAMP THEM AS CONTENDERS
De Kuh Has Nothing But Willingness and Monte Munn's Lack of Ring Experience Is Glaringly Exhibited.

New York. Oct. o9 t4) - Two of the younger school of heavyweight pugilists today found their prestige lowered as result Of an all- heavyweight boxing performance at Madison Square Garden last night while a third saw his stock bol- stered.
 Arthur De Kuh of Italy, and New York. regarded as promising prospect. showed little more than q courageous heart against a ter rife attack by Jim Maloney oc Boston. Although De kuh was tall- CT and heavier. he was helpless be- fore Maloney, going down five times in the first round and three times before the second round was half completed. The referee then stopped the bout. Maloney's per- tormance was impressive.
 Monte Mum. although he won in the seventh round when Carl Carter was disqualified for not ex- erting his best efforts, was unable 10 add to his knockout string. Car ter showed no disposition to place himself in hitting distance of tho long arm of the Nebraska football player and held on whenever hs could get himself close enough. Munn's lack of ring experience was made more glaring by the tactics of his opponent.
 Jack De Nave of Hoboken and Sandy Seifert of Pittsburgh fought a brisk draw and Yale Okum. oc New York, won a decision from BOD Lawson, Alabama negro.
 All the bouts were scheduled for ten rounds.

The Billings All Stars defeated the
Bearcreek Miners again last Sunday
on the local diamond by score of A
to 8. A large crowd of applauding
fans saw the hotly contested game,
which was one of the best played
ball games seen here in several years.
After the first inning, the game re-
suited in pitching duel between
Lodge and Behrendt, BOTH pitchers
performing brilliantly and receiving
sensational support.
A hit batsman, free pass and two
hits aided by an error gave the Wis
itors three run lead in the first in
ming But the Miners came back
strong in their half and tied the
count. DeMoore, lead off man for the
Miners, singled to center. johnson
singled and Six drew base on balls,
loading the bases with none out. Reid
was safe at first when DeMoore went
out at home on a felder's choice.
Markovich, the dimunitive left field
er struck out after taking three hard
swings at the ball. The Miners were
trying deperately to score. Wadsworth
was then sent in to pinch hit and re-
sponded with lusty single, scoring
Johnson and Six. The play to get Six
home was close, drawing protests
from the Billings players. Reid then
scored on passed ball by Wheeler,
the Billings catcher, making the score
3 to 3. With Wadsworth on second,
Phillips grounded out, retiring the
side.
Lodge and Behrendt turned the op-
position back without difficulty until
the fifth, when Billings succeeded in
breaking the tie count. Peterson, the
visitors first sacker, doubled, stole
third and came hone on Holes long
sacrifice fly to Reid, making the score
4 to 8. After the fifth both teams
played shut out ball. Phillips retired
the visitors easily. The Miners rallied
in the ninth, but were again turned
back by fast double play.
The game was full of fast fielding,
both teams making double plays.
throw to the plate in the
9th, which beat Wheeler by step,
was the feature fielding play of the
day. Gregory for the Miners, and
Leone for Billings, starred in the short
field. DeMoore garnered two of the
locals seven hits. Pitching honors
were about even, with Lodge holding
Billings to five hits but issuing more
passes than Behrendt.
1t was a game we'll worth seeing and
after watching the Miners in action
with the strong Billings team, we feel
assured of good brand of baseball
here this season. Bridger will play
the miners here next Sunday. "Web"
