his first appearance in this coun-

According to Promoter Joe

INTERCEPTED
PASS MEANS
TOUCHDOWN

By CHRISTIAN C"RED") eagle
The lateral pass is exceedingly
dangerous because it is a short.
floating pass and in most cases
the opponents are close at hand.
Constant practice between the
passer and the receiver Is abso-
lutely essential II the play is to 60
across successfully in a game.
The pasSer is at a disadvantage
because the receiver, running par
allel with him, does not afford a
good target. The ball may be
held-and have found this to be
one of the best wayS-in a hori-
zontal position with an end Of the
hall in the palm Of each hand and
fingers gripping 1t easily.
The pass is in the nature Of 8
basketball pass. straight out and
slightly arched and thrown from
in front of the passer's chest or
brought up from his waist. de-
pending upon the desired distance
and height. Force is impaired to
the ball by swapping the wrists.
While care should be taken
not to throw the ball hard,
still equal caution must be
exercised against IObbing it.
If 1t Is lObbed, the opposing
back or end has too much
time to get across the line
and intercept this pass.
Almost invariably intercepted
pass means a touchdown for the
opposition. If in doubt as to
whether or not this pass is apt to
be intercepted, the pasSer must
never-no matter what the result
may be-attefnpt to execute this
play.
The receiver of a lateral pass
must be prepared to receive the
ball, keeping his arms and fin
gersr relaxed. He must not get
ahead Of the paser unless the
passer is more than yards
back of the line of scrimmage In
which event the pass is trans
formed in to a forward If the
receiver is in advance Of the
paSser.
If the passer is less than S
yards behind the line Of scrirn-
mage, both passer and receiver
must be- on a line parallel with
each other or the receiver to the
rear of the passer, in order to
make the play legal.
This lateral pass is distinctly a
play where the passer must alb
Solutely rely on his own judg-
ment as to whether or not it Is
to be thrown even though the
run has been started.

M|DD|ES NEED
AERIAL GAME
DEFENSE

ANNAPOLIS, Oct. 8.-Neither
the very indifferent showing Of the
Naval Academy team Saturday
against william and Mary or the
close game played Notre Dame by
Southern Methodist, has altered
the general feeling here as to the
game Saturday between Navy and
the Ramblers at South Bend.
While 19 to was by no means
big score for the Navy against
the Virginians. it is to be remem-
bered that the visitors brought q
powerful and experienced team to
Annapolis, almost identical with
that which had played here last
year.
It is also a fact that the
Navy used its first string only
part of the time.
The Navy's poor defense against
the forward pass and the fact that
visiting back, Scott. ran clear
around the Navy right end for a
touchdown, showed the weak spots
on the Navy team, and this may
have q good result, as special at
tention will be paid to these defects
during the week.
Elements OF satisfaction were
the good work of the line inside
of the ends and the excellent
showing of several of the backs,
Including TsChirgi, Hagberg, Can
non, Kirn and Castree.
Tschirgi drove into the line
harder than any of the backs,
though Castree. who played but
short time, did very much the
same kind of work. Tschrigi
promises to be one of the Navy's
most useful backs this season.
The work of Hagberg, the
19O-pOund fullback, who Occu-
pied a regular place in the
varsity backfield for his first
match, was also very en-
cOuraging, both extensively
and defensively.
! Kirn, who was the Navy's run
n.,e; ace the latter part of last
! season, did not gain as many
yards as expected. but he was
always ready when two or three
yards meant a touchdown, and
took the ball over for all three
of the Navy's scores.
Cannon did by far the best
passing for the Navy and some
Of the ground gaining, and it Is
probable that his good showing
may make it necessary for In
gram to revise his backfield.
Denny has been playing at
quarter and Cannon was consid.
cred change player for TSchirgi
at half, but it now looks as if the
team needs the service Of the
veteran, and Cannon may return
to the quarterback position.
where he played last year, with
| Tschirgi and Kirn at the halves
and Hagberg at full. This looks
ike the Navy's strongest possible
combination. ;.
Admittedly, the Navy does not
begin to have the strength IN
| the backfield as Notre Dame,
with such backs as Carideo, Brill
and Savoldi.

ELEVENS READY.
FOR BATTLE

A real battle is looked for
when the Gallaudet and American
University elevens clash Satur-
day on the Kendall Green field at
2:3O o'clock. The game is the
only one scheduled for a local
field and a large crowd Is ex-
pected.
Both teams are eager for the
fray. American U. is all popped
up over its showing so far this
season, while Gallaudet is positive
in it's ability to win.
Gallaudet is the heavier
eleven of the two. This fact
might give it a certain ad-
vantage, but the Kendall
Greeners are still in need of
practice and games to smooth
out their play.
American U. has registered twice
to date. It looked impressive
against Shenandoah when that
team was defeated, IA to 2. while
it played a good game against
Shepherd College last week in
winning, 6 to 0.
Gallaudet has defeated the
heavy Tank Corps School in its
lone game so far. The score was
20 to 0.
A strong defense will put the
American gridmen over, is the
thought. And this because of the
powerful Johnny Ringle in the
Gallaudet lineup. Ringle was
one of the country's leading
scorers last year.

G. j. GR|DMEN
TO OPPOSE
WESLEYAN
BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON


The signs point to a record
breaking crowd at the Clark Grit
fifth Stadium Friday night when
the Georgetown and Vesr Vir-
gin1a Wesleyan elevens engage in
the first nocturnal football game
in the nations Capital at 8:l5
O'Clock.
There is every indication that
the stadium will be filled for the
first time since 1922, when Navy
and Penn State drew $4,000 in a
game that was as thrilling as a
canary fight.
Three sound reasons give weight
to the prediction of an immense
gathering Friday night.
Firstly, thousands will at
tend, attracted by the novelty
of night football. They'll want
to see what this night foot
ball looks like.
Secondly. many local football
lovers couldn't afford to leave
their employment or profession
for a daylight game but night
football opens the door. Now
they can go freely about their
work without interruption, have
their evening meal and be back
at the field before the game
starts.
Thirdly, the racegoers (and
this town harbors a large nest)
can visit the nearby tracks, have
supper and return to town in
time for a night football game.
In past years, the race tracks
drew thousands away from local
football games.
As to whether night foot
a bali will become a success
here is in the hands Of the
fans. They alone will be the
judges. But It is safe to say
that . big crowd will be pres
ent Friday night If only for
curiosity Il

lowing the play. Listen to what
Johnny Colrick, assistant coach,
says:
"The players had no trouble
In taking passes or catching
punts. Everything was as
clear as play in broad day
light. For the first time, the
LOyOla Stadium was filled,
showing that night football
game is taking hold in Chi
cagO."
Apparently, Head Coach Tom
my Mills is not satisfied with
the blocking by his backs. The
backs are not taking out the
ends and a team can make no
headway with its running attack
unless the ends are removed.
Yesterday, Mills worked his
backs for over an hour and
none displayed any skill in
blocking. Still, good blockerS
are hard to find.
