the rule was changed so that the de-
fense team could not run with fun
bled ball Previously there was too
much menace in the play. If defen-
sive player recovered a tumble on a
lateral pass and could run with 1t, 1t
would usually result in a touchdown
since the ball would be recovered in
the open.
Four Forms Of Attack.
FUTURE foot ball players will learn
r. to pass and receive foot ball with
the same proficiency that basket
ball players handle a basket ball. In
the past American foot ball players
have merely learned to hold the ball,
pass forward and run. Ten years were
required to develop the forward pass
after it was first introduced.
There are four major forms OF attack
in modern and up-to-date foot ball;
as follows:
Kicking (a) from scrimmage. which
includes punt, drop kick. place kick :;
(b) free kicks. which include kickoff
place kick and punts after fair catches.
Bucking, which might be said to in
clude all the running attacks between
the two defensive tackles, including
plays which start outside and cut back
inside: also straight plunges, spinners,
reverses, delayed bucks.
Running. All plays which strike
outside the defensive tackles.
Passing. Forward. backward. lateral.
or combination Of any two or three Of
them. The ball may be passed laterally
or backward as many times on each
scrimmage as desired.
With the proper use of all the posi-
bilities Of kicking bucking. running and
passing, the game can be thrown as
wide open as the width of the field and
as deep as the distance from the point
OF scrimmage to the back of the end
zone.
Need More Varied Attack.
"HERE are on an average l60 plays
in a game, 80 for each team il
they were equally divided. The
coach who does not plan for a varied
attack handicaps his team A good use
of these forms of attack would be about
as follows.
Forty kicks. including all styles OF
kicking; 80 forward passes; 40 lateral
passes, including single, double and
triple; 20 runs on direct passes from
center but carrying the threat of for
ward or lateral pass: 80 bucks of the
various types listed above.
Imagine the problem OF the defense
to guard against such varied style of
attack, where every inch Of ground from
side line to side line, and from the
scrimmage line to the back of the end
zone is continually threatened! Alert
ness. quick diagnosis and speed are
required
Unlimited Possibilities.
"HERE is little restriction on the
distribution of the offense. The
seven men required on the line
Of Scrimmage may be spread from side
line to sideline. or plastered together as
close as seven men can be, as they are
now in some offensives. The backs
have no restrictions as to where they
may be placed before the ball is put
in play, except they cannot be beyond
the line of scrimmage. They may be
on the line or any point back of it.
In other words, a coach in designing
his system of offense under present
rules has practically unlimited latitude
in what he may plan to do extensively,
either as to the distribution of his men
before the ball is put in play or what
they may do after the ball is put in
play.
It is not more rules We need, but
more and better use of all the posi-
bilitieS of attack

KENNEDY NOW HOT
PICK FOR RING WIN
Reason Is He Will Battle
RaWson, Not Petrin, at
+, Portner's Tonight. =.
BY FRANCIS E. STAN.

A N UNDERDOG less than "a
" hours ago, Les Kennedy of
1 \ Alexandria today was a
heavy choice to snap an
eight-fght losing streak, but not
because local boxing experts
thought any more of his ability.
Instead of opposing Don Petrin
of Jersey City tonight in 10
round scrap at Portner's Arena,
Les will face an unknown sub
stitute-Larry Rawson.
Claiming to have sprained an ankle
late Sunday while training-an excuse
which may register varied degrees of
sympathy here-Petrin pulled out of
the fight with telegram to Match
maker frankie Mann yesterday. In
his place RaWson. fellow -townsman OF
Petrin, was suggested and accepted.
Tagged Big Boy" the newcomer
comes here unheralded and unknown,
although claiming a knockout victory
over james j. Braddock and wins over
Eddie Simms and Ace Clark. If he did
stop Braddock, Kennedy may be in for
some unexpected trouble, for James
was one of the gladiators who extended
Les 1888 losing streak to eight in row.
II ENNEDY, seeking to force Wash
n ington's own Marty Gallagher
into the ring with him. wound
up his training activities yesterday
looking in the best of shape. After
dropping No. in a row near the fag
end of last year. Les quit the squared
circle for lengthy vacation. Staleness
was the reason advanced for his weak
performances midway 1888 and the rest
is believed to have taken care of that.
So much furore was raised when Gal
lagher refused to fight Kennedy as
scheduled that Marty's handlers finally
broke down and half promised Les
shot if he demonstrated some improve
ment in his next fight. If the boys
really are serious it is possible Gal
lagher and Kennedy may be matched
soon.
THE remainder of the card will re-
main as originally scheduled,
with two Jersey City stable
mates of Petrin boxing local talent in
a pair of six-rounders and two four
round prelims opening the show.
Rated one of Max Waxmans best
prospects, Freddy Fidducla will oppose
Henry Irving. Northeast Washington
light Heavyweight. in the six-round
semi-windup Steadily improving In
his boxing and relying less and less on
his right-hand wallop to pull him
through, Irving is reckoned a match
for Fidducia.
In another scrap over the same dis
tance Walter Kirkwood. District IT'S

other Waxman charge. Many contend
Hyde is an even better prospect than

GOLF TEST REQUEST
REPLY IS DUE SOON
Indian Spring Has Applications on
File for Amateur and Open
Sectional Rounds.

INDIAN SPRING COUNTRY CLUB,
only local club which has applied
for the sectional qualifying rounds
for either the amateur or open golf
championships this year, expects shortly
to have an answer to its request for the
amateur championship sectional rounds,
scheduled to be played on August 81.
Indian Spring made its request on
November "a, in a letter transmitted
through the District Golf Association
to the United States Golf Association.
No other Washington club has requested
either of the two fixtures, although
clubs in Richmond and Baltimore have
applied for the sectional rounds for both
championships
For the past two years Washington
has had the sectional rounds for both
national Journeys. Last year Columbia
entertained amateurs, while Manor held
the open tests. In 1882 Chevy Chase
held the amateur trials, while Congress
sional staged the open tourney elimina-
ton event The U. S. G. A. shortly
will announce the venues of the local
sectional rounds, and in all probability
Indian Spring will get the nod for the
amateur trials. If held in August some
low scoring will be in order for Indian
Spring rates as one of the easier scor-
ing courses when the ground is fast.

Houghton a letter in which the new

AS great as his courage is and was, as

Walter never was the impeccable golfer

than compensated for them with the
