The courses do not consist
wholly of technical football, but
topics such as equipment, busl'
ness administration of football,
training methods and procedure,
treating of injuries and so forth
are all gone into very thoroughly
by men who are experts IN their
own particular line.
In Better Position
I can understand full we'll why
the athletic authorities IN our
high schools today are most par
ticular in selecting fine high type
characters for coaches for their
football teams. They are well
aware of the fact that the high
school age is the most lmpres
sionable. They know the foot
ball coach is oftentimes in a
much better position than the
father or mother of the boy to
teach this boy the proper way tc
live outside of the classroom
The kid is red hot on the foot
ball field. Under the strain OF
battle he will carry out any or
der given him. He is like putty
in the hands of his coach. He
is absolutely receptive to every
word and action Of his teacher
on the field. Why shouldn't
school authorities be particular
whom they choose as football
coach?
AS a matter of fact, I think
any coach, be he high school OF
college and in any sport is morally
obligated by the very nature o1
his position to give a young
man the best he has in his
own personality and character
makeup.
The Washington times., 1933-09-23


the open style of play. the offense
has become more diversified, and
the defense has been forced 10
keep pace with the open game,
and hence, we have had an in
creased interest both from the
standpoint of the public and a de-
cided improvement in the teach
ing and coaching, with the result
that coaches are putting forth
their best efforts to convince their
respective colleges and public at
large, of the fact that football
possesses great virtues If properly
coached and managed.
Then take the old blood and
thunder type of football, in the
days when the soap box orators,
and the suffering alumni were
invited to talk to the team be-
tween halves, when the blood
stained equipment was a sign
of heroism and valor, and usually
after the season was put IN the
archives.
And the day is far passed when
the coach can appeal to his play
ers until the blood fills his shoes
especially now when those
players are wearing a yellow
back, kangaroo leather shoes at
fourteen bucks a pair.
Teams are now equipped both
from the standpoint Of afford
ing the best kind of protection
from injury, and to meet the
demands of the institution they
are representing, and the public
as well. Fighting spirit still has
a great place in the game, and
is requisite of any successful
football team, but the blood and
thunder have been taken out OF
the game.
The fighting spirit still re-
mains, and a cool calculating
exactness has been added to the
new game of football. Many of
the old traditions remain, but
the changes have come quickly
to meet the modern trend in the
newer coaching psychology.
The Washington times., 1933-09-23

sought after by representatives
of large colleges and universities.
But because of the attractiveness
of their own position, financial
and otherwise, they have de-
clined to accept these fabulous
offers.
The present day football coach
ing school has, I believe, done
more than anything else towards
raising the standards of the high
school and prep school coaching
organizations. For instance, at
Texas Tech College in Lubbock
each summer the authorities there
sponsor two-weeks' course in foot
ball coaching where over 400 high
school and college coaches attend.
Hanley Packs 'Em In
Then up at Northwestern, Dick
Hanley packs them in each year

fornia: all conduct very interest
ing coaching school sessions every
summer. I personally have had
the pleasure of attending as a
student and as an instructor
many of these schools. The
courses consist of both lecture
and actual demonstration of
football technique on the field.
