What slight advances were
: made along these lines were
made by G. W., C. u, and Mary
lane. C. u. executed one of the
. most perfect of lateral passes to
score q touchdown in the final
game of the year against Loyola.
While the man in motion with
. backward pass threat was in
evidence on many gridirons of
America, this phase of attack was
entirely missing in District foot
ball. In a sense, this fact re-
fleets bit on District football,
but judging by the experience
4of other teams using this par.
ticular play, District elevens were
wise in giving it only superficial
attention.
" Shuttle Pass Developed
Throughout the nation the
lateral pass did not furnish near
TO the sensations promised for it.
The shuttle pass forward pass
behind the line Of scrimmage,
thrown and received by moving
units) was developed to a fine
degree Of perfection by William
and Mary in the South Atlantic
territory. However, on the occa-
/, sion Of the appearance here of
the Indi ms, conditions were u1-
favorable for the proper execu-
ton of this play. c. u, G. W.,
and Maryland all accomplished a
bit with this play.
Due to the fact that G.. W.,
C. u, and Maryland utilized the
forward pass with cleverness a
number of teams opposing these
elevenS used a SiX-man line de-
Tense, with five men comprising
the defensive secondary defense.
The 'mmoneSt defense shown
here was the $50, but there were
others, the next commoneSt being
the 6-2.2-1. Several teams went
into a five-man line defense
whC1 the play to be expected was
obviously an overhead. Carnegie
Tech played a 1921 because of
Georgetown'S weak attack.
G. w. Defense Versatile
G. WIS defense was versatile,
albeit certain weaknesses cropped
out when the opposition under
took forward passes. C. us pass
defense appeared tighter than G.
WIS. Maryland's defense, be.
cause of a green line, did not de.
Ivelop, was weaker than usual.
: Georgetown's defense was weak
all season, except in the Bucknell
game. 1t is probable that Buck
= nell'S attack was weak.
3 = Apropos defense against for
ward passes, it is pertinent to
note that spectators have much
to learn in this phase of foot
ball. Just one case in point:
In the G. Oklahoma game,
when Oklahoma scored its touch
down, Johnny Baker was charged,
= by the unknOwing, for the failure
of @. WIS defense. At the time,
@. WIS defense was a man-to-man
affair, and Baker had nothing
to do with the failure of the
Colonial defense. Another back
field unit of G.. w. permitted his
man to catch the pass. In other
words, Bakers man was nowhere
near the pass. while the man to

IN this black OF of Texas reconstruction
! almost every crime on the calendar
committed. Texas became the no-man's land
of the Western half of the United States
White adventures poured into Texas. Stories
of fabulous wealth attracted the gold seekers
Bandits in Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska
where they could hide. The maraud;ng bands
of Indians would swoop over the Southwest
plains steal settlers livestock and sometimes
their women, then head for Texas. These
Indians were formidable and had little trouble
in outwitting the soldiers. 1t seemed as if the
master minds of crime had moved to Texas,
where a repatedly easy State government
would make their operations less difficult.
Perhaps Texas didn't drive out this spawn of
the white race as effectively as she should
have done, but Texas had her own problems of
State government, and there was some dlscon-
tent that she had not continued a sovereign
nation.
To meet this mounting trouble, more
Rangers were called to the colorS. Grand
sons of early settlers may be found in Texas
now who say the Rangers saved Texas from
a worse fate Almost every border town in
Texas has stories of Ranger activity at this
trying time it cherishes and to this day bandit
lookouts careful to note that Ranger is
not within riding distance.

San Jacinto, McCulloch commanded cannon,

and so hot did he make it for the Mexicans
that the dead were piled high in front of the
field piece. McCulloch was Tennessee friend
of David Crockett, the scout who fell at the
Alamo after IL days fighting. Crockett had
gone to Texas ahead of his friend, or Nc
Culloch might have met the same fate. At
the Battle of San Jacinto McCullochs bravery
was so outstanding that he was commissioned
captain on the field.
McCuoch and his men, who were plains
scouts, were the groundwork of the present
Rangers. They performed valiantly in the
Mexican War Their knowledge Of the terrain
was invaluable to their generals. They pos
sessed accurate shooting ability, and the long
rifle is no idle phrase in Texas. These scouts
could perform long-range shooting that outdoes
Buffalo Bill
FTER the war McCulIoch was captain of a
company on the West frontier. In 1855
President Buchanan sent McCulloch to COM
mand a company of soldiers in the Utah re-
bellicn. McCuloch died fighting as brigader
general in the Confederate Army at the Battle
Of Pea Ridge, Ark.
When the settlement Of the vast stretches
of the Southwest began and the great herds
began to move north to Kansas City, Abilene
and Dodge City over the Chisholm and OgaIlah
trails, the Texas Rangers we're called on for
new duty. Cattle rustling became the racket

IN CHEMISTRY

The Italian chemical industry,
now ranking fifth in world
trade, is, on the whole, resisting
the effects of the depression,
according to Prince P. Ginori
Cont, Florence correspondent of
Industrial and Engineering
Chemistry. He writes:
"The big chemical concerns
which provide domestic neces-
sites are all working, though
of course production is not in
Creasing as rapidly as it prom
iSed in the past. On the other
hand, new concerns are coming
into being"
The older industries, such as
those manufacturing phosphate
fertilizers (mean annual output
100000 quintals, limited to g.
100000 in 193D, nitrogenous
fertilizers (mean output about
2,500,00 quintals), caustic soda
100000 quintals), chlorine and
boric acid (about 45,000,O00
quintals), compressed gases, and
similar products, are reported to
be developing their activities.
