BLOCKERS DOHARDEST WORK;
BALL CARRIERS GIVEN CHEERS
enough to let opposing linemen
through.
Battle Of Wits


Battle Of Wits
Many uniformed fans believe that
a lineman's Job requires little mental
cffort-that all one has to do in q
line is to punch holes for backs to run
through. But the lineman must be
every bit as smart as back, for he
constantly Is pitting his wits against
men Of bigger stature and with diff
ferent methods of attack. He must
have . defense suited for each one.
II you suspect that weight and
Drawn are the only essentials Of q
lineman take look at the success Of
those forward walls of Navy and Illi-
nois, which average only slightly more
than l8o pounds.
Outside Of the line, ball carriers
probably obtain the most aid from the
signal caller. A coach always is on
the lookout for q smart field general
This player has to watch the oppon-
ents' entire defense, especially the
secondary.
II the halfbacxs are playing close
to the line Of scrimmage, It Is the sig
nal callers cue to open up with a
passing game; II they are playing
deep, the quarterback hits the line
and runs the ends.
In addition to this. the quarterback
must be q good blocker. A team isn't
q top-notcher until it has q pilot who
can perform that duty. The sterling
blocking Of quarterbacks has led te
many touchdowns.

Blocking Varies
OF most importance to the success
Of q ball carrier Is his line.
Different kinds of blocking must
be used on various types Of players.

TACKLES or guards must harry their
opponents momentarily before pull
