The defensive back in modern
football has an all important role
to play. In the old days the defen-
sive back would get close to the
line Of scrimmage and give thought
only to the interference and the ball
carrier. Now. aside from having the
same two worries, he must fuss and
fret about the elusive forward pass
receiver sneaking down behind him
and taking pass over his head for
a touchdown.
The defensive back of today must
be keenly alert. He must know Of
fensive football in order to be able
to diagnose the type Of play about
to be used by the opposition. He
then places himself in the best pos
sible position to meet the attack.
About five feet nine inches to six
feet seems to be the ideal height for
the defensive back. He must be an
expert tackler in the open and also
adept in intercepting forward passes.
Speed is very helpful, because fast
end with greater speed has chance
to get behind the back and take a
pass for a touchdown.

Cyril Is Slow

playing the last round of the Flor
ida open, in a foursome of which
Gene Sarazen, Paddy Doyle, and the
ultimate winner, George Kerrigan,
were the other members. Playing
in fcursomes is a bad practice in
medal competition anyway, and Cyril
was taking his time. Paddy was
looking on with an amused and phil
osophic air and Gene Sarazen, just

back is to stand as high as he can,
thereby enabling him to have a good
view Of the line Of scrimmage, also
the offensive backfield. Never, I'M
der any circumstances, even when
walking back down the field, must
he keep his eyes anywhere except
focused on the offensive team.
None of the four defensive backs
should ever allow an offensive play
er, racing down the field, to get be-
hind them. 1t is absolutely ncces-
sary that they drop back and keep
even with player attempting to do
this. Otherwise such a player is
always in position to take pass
over their heads out of the air and
race for a touchdown.
The fullback on defense usually
stands from six to ten yards in
front of the center of the offensive
backfield, depending on the type of
offense he is playing against. The
halfbacks usually stand from eight
to ii yards directly back of their
ends. The safety man plays direct
~ back of his own fullback, from 20
to 40 yards, depending upon what
kind of team he is up against and
the style of play being used.

A relief pitcher must have control

knuckle ball that was tough to hit.

season, Joe Pate was used on AZ diff

Pate. working in AZ games, was
credited with nine victories and
no defeats. He saved perhaps
as many games as he won.
NO LUCK THIS YEAR
This year Pate encountered Just
the reverse "breaks" of last season.
His control wasn't so good and the
opposing batters refused to offer at
his almost unhittable knuckle ball,
knowing that a majority of times it
failed of strike specifications.
Pate wasn't able to win single

Billy Evans Says
PATE CASE UNUSUAL

A major league career without
parallel is that of Southpaw Joe
Pate of the Philadelphia Athletics.
Joe is no longer a big Lacquer.
Near the close of the past season he
was shipped back to his old stamp
ing g-ound, Fort Worth. Next year
he will again be doing business in
the Texas League and no doubt will
be one of the stars.
For years prior to 1926, Pate had
been one Of the big numbers in the
Texas League. Many a major league
club had angled for his services but
Joe always expressed a preference
for the Lone Star state.
: Eight years back, Detroit made a
deal Tor Pate but Joe said he wanted
none Of the big league. Knowing
this, Detroit relinquished its claim
and he continued to 60 big in Texas.
Two years ago pressure was
brought to bear on Joe and he
consented to take Z whirl 1t the
