4 mn ARBOR, Mich, December
~ 10 The Michigan defense
~ often is topic for conversation
among foot ball fans. but few
Of them know how it is organized and
why it usually brings results. Coach
Harry Kipkes answer is that Mich!gan's
defense really Is an attack with plays

When opponents have the ball. VOL
VERNE hnemen may open q hole for the
Michigan fullback to charge through
The difference is that instead Of toting
a pigskin the fullback goes through to
make tackle or block punt. The de-
fense has a big advantage opening
holes-they are allowed to use their
hands. Sometimes the fullback stays
back TO guard against forward passes,
and the center goes in. or an end rushes
while the backs cover, 1t depends on
what defensive signal Is called by the
center.
Chuck Bernard was the key man Of
the Michigan defense this Fall and, ac-
cording to Kipke. deserved great deal
Of credit for the Maize and Blue record.
The Michigan eleven was equipped
with seven different plays for use
against punts. On No. the left
tackle opened hole for the left end by
pulling the first blocker out Of the way.
The left guard charged through and
took out the second blocker, so the end
could get into the "alley" down which
the ball must travel after It was kicked

Scored Michigan's first touchdown.
When Bernard called for No. on
punt defense it meant that Michigan
fullback was to charge through center.
Bernard pulled the opposing center

guard pulled the opposing left guard
the other way. Michigan used seven

with Michigan's right end and right
tackle clearing his path.
An eight-man line, with every man
rushing in, was No. 6. This play was
used when it was certain the opponents
would punt. Michigan's No. signal
was an order for every man in the
line to block to prevent opposing ends
and tackles from going down under
the punt. no attempt being made to
block the kick. This was designed to
help the Michigan safety man get
started on run-back.
Kipke points out that the punt
blocking plays may not be 100 per
cent successful very often, but the
usual result Is shorter and less well
directed spirals by opposing backs.
