Medals for Kicking Offered
By Princeton Classmates
To Honor Mills Memory

Leroy N Mills, old Princeton man,
who died in harness following a
Tiger practice scrimmage this past
season, is to have still another me-
mortal. Announcement already is
made of the establishment of a
kicking school bearing his name
and with a faculty" of eminent
kickers, at Mamaroneck, N. Y, where
kicking clinic will be available
next June to specially selected boys.
Now Mills Princeton class. that
of 1905, on whose team he played as
lineman, has established a trophy
in his memory, annually to be
awarded to the most proficient kick
er among Princeton undergraduates.
Both trophy and individual medals
will be subscribed by all living men,
bers of the class. Not many college
classes can boast a man who has
done as much for the game.
1t took Roy Mills many long
year to come into his own and gain
the national recognition that was
his due. Of recent years there had
been much written of him, but be-
fore that too little.
All for the Game.
Curiously enough, he coached the
hooters of rival elevens long before
he instructed those of Princeton in
the art and strategy of kicking.
His book, Kicking the American
Football" now is in every college
and school athletic library. When
asked why he was willing to 60
anywhere and instruct anybody, his
invariable reply was, THE game is
bigger than any college"
AS has been stated, Mills never
played varsity football, having been
compelled to leave college before he
attained varsity caliber. Playing
as g guard, he did all the punting
for his class team through the au-
tumn of 1901 and was noted as a
distance kicker. Too many long run
backs of long, high kicks set him to
thinking, and his thesis, to the eff
feet that safety man cannot run
back ball if he cannot touch it,
was the result. Almost every punter
now follows this idea.
Mills mastery of a football is al
most legendary, although he died

Harinett Sees Punch

Defense Hit in Trading
Demuree, urges and
ODeu to Giants
Ey the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, Dec. THE Chicago
Cubs were looking for batting punch
when the winter trading season
opened, and Manager Gabby Hart
nett believes they got it in their
three-for- three swap with the New
York Giants.
The Cubs yesterday gave up Bill
Jurges, a fine defensive shortstop;
Frank Demaree. speedy outflelder,
and young Ken ODea. catcher. In
return they got Outfelder Hank
Leiber, Shortstop Dick Bartell and
Catcher Gus Mancuso.
The deal, consummated between
officials of the two clubs at the
New Orleans minor league meeting,
was the biggest of the young Stove
League season.
Hartnett Keeps Word.
1t was the first evidence that
Hartnett meant business when he
promised a "house cleaning" after
the National League champions
dropped four in a row to the New
York Yankees in the World Series.
At that time Hartnett said he
was willing to trade any Of his
players except Pitchers Dizzy Dean,
Bill Lee and Clay Bryant and Third
Baseman Stanley Hack.
1--WE had to get power In our
attack and I think we have it,
Hartnett said in New Orleans when
the swap was announced.
"Leiber puts a home-run threat
into our outfeld. We lacked that
last season. Bartell is far superior
to Jurges as producer of runs,
although we sacrificed something
defensively when we gave him up"
All Poor Last Season.
All players involved in the deal
had poor seasons in 1888, in COM
parison with previous years. Man.
cuso was the only one whose batting
figure surpassed earlier efforts, but
his .348 mark for the campaign
was compiled in only 48 games.
He was the only member OF the
group to bat above 300 last season,
according to unofficial figures.
The trade broke up one Of the
games finest double-play combina-
tions-Jurges and Billy Herman.
Recurrent reports have said Her
man also is slated for the trading
block before the spring training
season begins.

but few weeks ago. Some
Of his performances have been eX-
aggerated, but the truth is i'm
pressive enough, as any one who
ever witnessed one of his demon
strations can testify. He could back
up his lessons with do as I do"
and not just DO as I tell you He
never took pay for coaching any
boy or man; his recompense was
in seeing the result of his work
with them.
This coach laughed at the idea
that there was any such thing as
a natural-born kicker He admitted
that some men were naturally bet
ter equipped for the job than others,
claim. that he could make an ac-
curate kicker out of any physically
sound youth.
The sidelines are the two best
tacklers of any team and Kick
EN- where they amt" (adapted from
the long-ago remark of Wee Willie"
Keeler) were two of his regular
slogans.
His Accuracy Remarkable.
Even when past the half-century
mark he could boot a ball 10 yards
with ease, but distance was his aim
only when combined with angle.
Repeatedly and from different an
giles he could put rolling ball out
of bounds within a few feet of any
given point. He was known to have
kicked a short punt into china
vase on mantelpiece without
breaking it. and at Choate School,
in Connecticut, once gave demon
stration in which he kicked a spin
ming drop that landed in a bucket
and stayed there He naturally
could not do these things consistent
ly. but he could come close.
Undoubtedly the happiest day in
Mills life was when he got the
long awaited call from Princeton
last spring. Why, when successfully
he had helped such hooters as
Fuller and Ewart of Yale, Carideo
of Notre Dame, Murray Of Penn
and many others. he was not asked
to Princeton earlier seems to be a
secret of Fritz Crisler's. The Sue
cess of his work with Mountain,
Princeton kicker, this past autumn
was evident and pleasing to Tiger
rooters.
