ELEVEN
HOT SKULL
SESSION
BY GINO SINH

nap 11dIuCll, 1OI yCuAo WAOCAJ
publiciZed as the Capitals most
efficient and heart.rending foot
ball coach, now stands revealed
as an orator and a philosopher
Of no mean caliber.
The versatile fellow was sur
prised in the Tech High gym
recently putting his football
aspirants through a "red hot"
skull practice.
It can be stated with little fear
Of contradiction that the gridders
left that particular drill feeling
more bruised and battered than
II they had been through a long
and rough Scrimmage, but they
came away from it with clear
and concise knowledge of how
football should be played.
Resembles a Cicero
Hap" resembles Cicero
tongue-lashing a shipload of I'M
repentant Catilines during these
sessions. Gesticulating, sermon
izing, dramatizing, satarizing, eX-
horting, he drives home his
points with such vividneSs and
directnesS that his charges can
not possibly forget them.
He dominates them all the
while he is speaking. Nothing
can distract them. (Not even the
presence Of newspaper men,
There is no mincing of words,
no sparing of names. Hap"
tells them what is wrong with
them collectively and then what
is wrong with each one of them.
Occasionally he drops a compli-
ment or two, but not often.
Frankly, uneQuivocally he proves
to them that only by fully realiz-
ing their faults and short-com-
ings and trying to remedy them
can they develop into a cham
pionship team.
"YOu want a winning team,
j want winning team and the
school wants a winning team"
he roarS, land you know, /
know and the school knows that
you can win only when you
have learned to do your work
100 per cent perfect"
Could Demosthenes. Patrick
Henry or Wendell Phillips do any
better.
you've got to work for the
pack, got to pull together to
win. Expect no praise. Duty
well done, perfection achieved,
is its own reward. Failures are
good for you. All great men
have failed time and time
again, but they never made
the same mistake twice. Don't
grippe when a teammate blum
ders. Pat him on the back
encourage. him. You may be
the next 6 y to pull a dumb
head stunt. Don't bawl him
out. That's my business. I've
got to get a little pleasure out
Of life, you know"
And so he fumes, rants, wise
cracks, minics, philosophers for
the better part of an hour, with
the youngsters hanging on to his
every word.
Personal Matter
You realize that developing a
winning team is a personal mat
ter with Hap" and he inspires
his charges with the same feel
ing.
But "Hap" has other reasons
for wanting to turn out crack
football players.
Good football players, re-
search proves, amount to more
in later life than track athletes,
for instance" Hap claims. "The
trackmen are individualiStS, by
necessity. A football player has
learned to subject himself for
the good of the team. He has
learned to cooperate, and the
importance of making the way
for the other fellow. All in
valuable lessons in the great
game of life"
So there you are, ladies and
gentlemen, Elmer Hap" Hardell
peerless football coach, silver
tongued orator and journeyman
philosopher.

to block the road into the city should
