how to grip a foot ball-the correct
foot balance-the correct arm and wrist
action.
For example, again-most forward
passers fail to keep the forward tip
Of the ball elevated sufficiently, SO they
underthrow their target. Most Of them
fail to have the wrist properly cooked
at the top-a fault also common to
most golfers who wonder why they have
to throw the right shoulder and side
into the swing.
What use are the best foot ball play
ers unless the men are equipped to
carry out their assignments? What
good Is . forward passing attack with
uncertain passers and cratic receivers?
Most Of these fundamentals for win
ming teams next Fall will be taught this
Spring. Next Fall Is entirely too late.
Fundamentals and Practice.
THE average entry has an idea that
i all he needs Is practice. Practice
and hard work are necessary to
reach any noteworthy stage OF I'M
provement.
But practice means less than nothing
unless one Is practicing correct methods.
otherw1se 1t Is merely meter OF turn
ing bad faults into bad habits. You
Is another story.
No matter what the game, there must
be mental pattern Of the proper
method for one to build up any I'M
provement.
More often than not, the test Of
form Is under fire, under heavy pres
sure.
There are many examples or &C.
casions where incorrect form may get
along nicely until pressure Is applied
and then it cracks wide open. This
cracking process is often charged to
yellowness, to lack of courage. or to
an incorrect method which could never
operate under q strain.
It Is extremely important that youth
ful starters get away in the right d.
rection before too many faulty habits
or form kinks set in-always hard to
cure later on.
There are many fine teachers in
various fields Of sport, but there also
are too many who are not equipped to
handle the tob-who do more harm
than good.
Michigan nearly always has q fine
kicker-Yale a star pole vaulter-Notre
Dame and Southern California good
blockers-the Navy good boxing teams
the right fundamentals go back through
many years.
If q game Is worth playing. it Is worth
learning how to play. The nervous
system Is better off when q game Is
well PLAYED than 1t is when badly
played. The battle against bad faults
Is rousher than the battle with any
opponent
