r OS ANGELES, Nov. 23-Foot-
~ ball fans see the snake ipped
half back take the ball, break into
the clear, and start down the field.
They jump to their feet and yell.
Not so the football scout. He's
not in the least interested in who
is carrying the ball; what he wants
to know is where the ball carrier is
going, and how and with what help
he got started.
Another vast difference between
the football fan and the football
scout is this:
The fan thinks that he simply
must have seats on the 50-yard
line to see what is going on at a
football game. The scout knows bet
ter; from choice, he sits behind the
goal posts during at least half of
the game, SO he may see the line
play of the opposing teams.

Kick, 26-year-old San Francisco
scrapper, was step nearer his
pugilistic ambition-a title fight

Getting up off the floor twice,
Kick smashed into the front line of

Roth of New York.
Kick probably will be matched
with Lew Ambers of Herkimer, N.

zoneri in January. Kick fought
Tony four times and lost each de-
cision-but all were overweight af-
fairs.
The veteran coast fighter was
floored for counts of nine and two

ting Roth. But frankie got up both
times, rallied in the third round and
then boxed his way to victory.

Seldom Sees Own Game

TINE opponents defense is used
Il against the varsity offense-and
maybe the ofTense may be changed
just a trif1e to meet the defensive
condition which the scout has dis
covered.
If the opponent is known as a
passing team, pass defense is one of
the most important assignments of
the practice week. If the opponent
depends largely upon running at
tack, the line hackers are given
plenty of practice in their duties.
All week long the scout works
hand in hand with the head coach,
planning how best to meet the OPP
ponent of the coming Saturday. And
then when the varsity is meeting
the opponent the scout has watched
so carefully, the scout is off some
place else looking at another club.
Chances are he never sees his own
team in action, except on the prac-
tice field.
There are easier jobs than that of
being a football scout.

He watches the ball-carrying back

well, or must he run wide to the

Major Clubs
Keep Lid on
Player Deals
Big Leaguers Await Chicago
Session to Reveal I'M
portant Trades.

By United Press
DAYTON, O., Nov. 23.-With the
annual minor league meeting ended,
baseball activity quoted down to-
day to await the major league meet
ings in Chicago Dec. 10.
Judging from the secrecy main
tanned by the major league mag
mates and managers over their dick
erings and chickering's at the minor
leagAe meeting, there is likely to be
considerable activity in the player
marts at Chicago.
Only one major league deal was
actually announced here. Pitts
burgh obtained Catcher Al Todd
from the Philliles in exchange for
Catcher Earl Grace, Pitcher Claude
Passeau, last year with the Des
Moines Western League club, and
cash.
Others Reported Involved
The Cardinals and Giants made a
deal, which sends Second Baseman
Burgess Whitehead to New York
and Pitcher Roy Parmelee to St.
Louis, but are holding up official
announcement until the Chicago
convention. Other players are be-
lieved to be involved.
The major league meeting next
month, it was learned, will see the
elevation of Billy Evans, former
general manager of the Clevela nd
Indians, to assistant to President
Will Harridge of the American
League. The position will be new
one.
Joe Engel of Chattanooga, presi-
dent of the Southern Association,
was understood to have conferred
with baseball commissioner Judge
Lands yesterday regarding Dizzy
Deans run-out in an exhibition
game at Chattanooga last fall. 1t
was believed that Engel sought to
have Lands punish the st. Louis
Cardinal pitcher.
Important Mothers Delayed
The disposition of the Philadel-
phia Athletics stars; the fate of Al
Simmons, White Sox outfielder; the
attempt to rebuild the Boston
Braves; the efforts of the Boston
Red SoX and New York Yankees to
plug weak gaps, are among the
important matters which will oc-
cupy the major leaguers' attention

how the guard pulls out Of the line
for interference.
He wants to know the defensive
teams lineup against certain plays
whether 6-2-2-1, 7-1-2-1, 1922, or
6-3-2. These are all fundamental
defensive formations, and each has
its particular merit against some
particular maneuver by the offensive
team.
The scout must be thoroughly
grounded in the technique of the
game, understand the strategy that
is being used, and how the future
opponent of the team he represents
is applying that strategy.

Every Little Detail

Xh7HAT of the full back? Is he
w strong on line bucks, or does
he favor slanting drives off tackle?
Can he too, pass and catch passes?
If so, he's a dangerous opponent. If
not, all that is necessary in his case
is to mass up for line plunge.
What of the other backs? Are
they good blockers? Do they run a
tight interference, or loose?
And the ends-do they wait, or
smash in? And who rushes the
passes?
The fan can not be bothered about
such details. All he wants is a game
full of passes-forward and lateral
long, high kicks and plenty of run
ming. But the scout has to know
everything-even to what the full
back likes for supper
