MEEHAN TURNS
FOOTBALL TEAM
I 0 PROJECTILE

NEW YORK, Oct. 25 tF9-The secret
CT the most striking football maneuver
seen in the east this season was told
today by Chick Meehan, the fiery little
New York university coach, who in
vented it.
In Meehan's hands the weapon has
turned football team into a projectile
and carried N. Y. U. to the top of
eastern elevens in scoring with 213
points thus far to 10 for it's five op-
ponents.
Meehan calls it modified huddle,
but it looks like the charge Of the
light brigade. z
On every offensive play the linemen
in a row turn in their tracks two
PAGES to the rear of their playing posi-
tions, with their violet backs to the
enemy. The four men in the backfield
face them.
A low-voiced signal and some finger
sign language by the quarterback, then
it's "wheel-get set-charge," with a
measured interval between the move
mentS.
To make the rhythm perfect the
eleven men count "whun, tuh, three,
four 1t is their battle cry. On four
the ball snaps and the team drives
forward like a 16-inch shell.
The secret? =
"Well," said Meehan today, we did
it in self-defense against the yelling
every big football game is played III
nowadays.
'Time was when quarterback
could hold up his hand and the crowd
would quiet down so the team could
hear the signals. Now it can't be
done. The crowds are too big and
interest is too keen.
Last year we found the team was
weak when it was near the enemy goal.
When we seemed headed for a touch
down the yelling got louder-and our
men couldn't hear the signals.
'@This is the way we got around it
this year. All the men are watching
the quarterback and they can read
his lips if they can't hear him.
"Then too, there's no danger of the
other team getting our, signals, be-
cause the quarterback varies them
with signs with his fingers"
Meehan built even better than he
knew. In addition he found the
maneuver gave his team faster
charge and a psychological advantage
over the opposing team. There is
something irresistible about that
wheeling violet wall, swinging about
face with military precision and driv-
ing forward.

CHORUS
RAPS MENTOR
OF OHIO U

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 25, P)--
Din of the anvil Chorus" which be
gan its knocking as soon as Michi-
gan's football beam had hung up
another victory over Ohio State last
Saturday was heard far and wide
in Ohio today.
A group of irreconcilables to the
present regime of things athletic at
Ohio State became more outspoken
as a result of these developments:
Claim of DR.. John W. Wilce, head
coach of Ohio State, that the Ohio
State team which played Michigan
last Saturday was ''the best that
Ohio State has put in the field this
year, and that the teams errors
were not fundamental.
Resignation of A. w. Raymond,
city recreation director, as presi-
dent of the Varsity 20" alumni as
Sociation, after the organization had
given DR.. Wilce an ovation upon his
appearance at its meeting.
Suggestion made at a meeting OF
Ohio State alumni Cleveland that
"two-thirds of the players who par
ticipated in the Michigan game turn
in their suits, that Ohio Site get a
new head coach, or that a decided
shake-up of the team be instituted. .
Taking the ovation given DR.. Wilce
as an endorsement of his regime,
Raymond resigned, saying that he
felt "there is something radically
wrong with the system in vogue. I
don't feel that I can continue to
serve as president of an organization
that is supposed to be a loyalbacker
Of the present regime he said. Ray
mond, varsity tackle in 1910, 1911
and 1912, was one-time all-American
choice of several sport writer's.
Dr.. Wilce attributed Saturdays un-
satisfactory showing against Michi-
gan to several things, among which
were these.
The after-effect of a warning e1e-

ment within the team which had
been eliminated just prior to the
game by shift in the lineup.
A great over-rating of the ONO
State team early in the season.
A difficult schedul edrawn to meet
the community demand" rather
than with the idea of winning games.
Belief that all teams which have
met Ohio State so far this year
have been pointed" for the Buck
eyes.
!. Dr. Wilce denied that the coaching
staff has neglected to emphasize
blocking and tackling.
Failure Of Ohio defensive men to
follow" the particular Michigan man
designated for him to watch caused
collapse of the forward pass defense,
he said.
Similarly, he said, Ackerman end,
had failed to follow instructions TO
watch for the famous Michigan "83
play, which led to wolverine touch
down.
This play, known as favorite Yost
trick, is a fake kick from placement.
