The 12.Man Team.

TIP AT Colgate this Spring Andy
" Kerr has been experimenting
with the-12-man idea in foot
baK
This means II active foot ball play
ers, with a headpiece directing the
, play. The extra man doesn't figure
in any part of the physical contact.
Absorbing none Of the jolts and
crashes, his brain remains cool and
calm as he sizes up the situation.
If possible, Andy would like to try
this scheme out in one or two of the
earlier games next Fall, just to see
how it might work out under actual
fire.
The report from Colgate indicates
that the new ball can be kicked and
passed many yards farther than the
old. The passing advantage will aid
the attack, but the extra kicking
length can work just as well for the
defense when the time comes to kick
out of trouble.
In spite of the silence on a hun
dred fronts, this has been the busiest
Spring foot ball ever has seen. More
than 20 new coaches. have had to look
over their material and put in their
own systems of play.
And few 1894 schedules leave any
loaf1ng spots.

What has he got?" I asked.
Everything a star pitcher needs
including speed, control, a brain and
a heart" Hornsby said.
A trife over two years later. at the
date suggested by Hornsby, this same
Warneke opens the new season with
a brace Of consecutive one-hit games,
one Of the fastest starts in the span
Of base ball.
The Cub star is out after Hubbell's
place on top Of the pitching peak, and
the scramble offered by this pair
should be one Of the features Of the
season. Both have got away in a
hurry, but Warneke's start was the
more sensational.
When they meet in their first hand
to-hand, or arm-to-arm, melee there
will be few vacant spots at either
Wrigley Field or the Polo Grounds.

the fly to a point just below his pros
trate form.
What Q hit!" said the right fielder,
plucking handful Of grass and chew
ing it in a meditative way.
The Hon. Bullitt may encounter
this sort Of thing In Russia, but !
doubt it. The Soviet government al
ready has volunteered the use of q
field. One thing will lead to another.
Pretty soon the government will be
volunteering comrades to pitch to the
batters in practice and hit fungos.
Then the government itself will march
out on the field in a body and play
the embassy staff in a game which
should be marked by diplomatic cere-
mony and sort Of grave courtesy.
No one Is better fitted to spread the
gospel of base ball than an Ambas-
sador. He can supply the technique
