Termed Deliberate
As WE'LL Rants

Reassured by the presence of port
ly AL WE'LL, his astute agent, Joey
Archibald was to resume boxing
today at Turner's Arena as he nears
the end of training for Monday
nights 15-round championship bout
with Harry Jeffra at Griffith
Stadium.
Clucking like a brood hen, Mr..
WE'LL stepped off a train yesterday
hurting threats of retaliatory meas
ures if his boys injury proved as
serious as first reported. They
couldn't do that to joey and get
away with it-not while WE'LL had
a protest left in his soul.
They say it was an accident he
scoffed "Accident-yeah, I know
the kind. I've seen 'em happen too
many times before. I haven't been
managing fighters Is years for
nothing, and I'm wise to the cute
tricks certain people pull when they
want to get your fighter licked
Joey's never had an accident like it
before, and he's trained for lot
of bouts with boys just as green as
the kid who cut his eye.
But I don't see how kid sup
posed to be inexperienced could use
his elbow so we'll.
But don't worry. My fighter still
will win by a couple of city blocks. -
WE'LL wasn't sure he'd be able to
remain in town over the week end,
but promised to be on hand for
today's workout. 1t is Archibald's
last day of real fisticufflng.

Rudy Dusek Yearning
To Avenge Emi|'s
Loss 10 Singh

Nanjo Singh is sporting 500 bat
ting average in his feud with the
Dusek family today as a result of
his 22-minute triumph over Emil In
the co-feature of last nights muscle
exhibition at Griffith Stadium.
Nanjo dropped the duke to Ernie
Dusek a week ago in the same ring.
But the Duseks were not without
honor last night, for Rudy, the head
man of the tribe, turned in 30
minute victory over Jack Hader in
the final bout of the evening and
did it in customary Dusek fashion.
1t seems that Hader paused to de-
bate q point in Interpretation of
the rules with the referee and Rudy
crept UP behind and grabbed him
with the winning hold.
After the engagement Rudy served
notice that he wants Singh-a verse
at a time-to erase the Hindu's
victory over Emil. Emil, it seems,
always is letting the family name
trail in the dust, and Ernie and
Rudy continually are faced with the
problem of avenging his losses.
In other bouts Abe Coleman and
Ralph Garibaldi drew, Alan Eustace
pinned Ed Newman in 20 minutes
with a body scissors and Bob Wan
ger tossed Red Ryan in II minutes
with a body press.

proposed, now confronts the Wash

night will play the Eastern All-Stars

Because this mornings brief

leaving Los Angeles last Tuesday,
means that the Indians will enter
the next exhibition with only two
regular practice sessions-tomorroW

In short, the cross country trek of
the Redskins approximates what any
Eastern division team of the pro
league would have to do after an
iptersectional game at Los Angeles,

through. OF course, the trip could
be made overnight by air. But there

STOCKTON, Calf, Sept. g.
One of the most famed football
formations is the wingback,
probably as widely used as any
backfield setup.
It's conception is popularity
credited to Glenn Scobey (Pop)
Warner. Pop perfected 1t, but
did he devise 1t?
The real discoverer probably
was Amos Alonzo Stagg, who is
rounding out half a century Of
coaching the last seven years at
the College of the Pacific.
Stagg wants no credit in the
development of the wingback
type of play. But he recalls
that as an end at Yale in 1889
he discovered that by dropping
a yard or so back of the line OF
scrimmage he could get driving
start, both from tackling
standpoint and to dodge in to
form part of the interference.
Necessity was the mother of
invention in his case. Com
pared with his teammates he
was a lightweight, weighing only

call it wingback. From it he
evolved the Tanker plays and
from them the dizzier gridiron
gyratjons he calls ea-dingers."
During the Al years he coached
at Chicago he used this style of
play, which for no better proof
may be the grandpappy of the
wingback.
The flanker plays still are pop
ping out of Stages bag OF grid
iron tricks. His Pacific team will
make full use of them again this
season. The 77-year-old dean of
coaches has made his influence
felt during the few years he has
been in the Far West. Several of
the major league" coast teams
are using his hankers-with
success.

W. & LIS Star General
Out With Broken Ankle

By the Associated Press
RICHMOND, Va, Sept 8.-Old Man
Hard Luck benched Junie Bishop,
Washington and Lee quarterback,
yesterday just as the General flash
was exhibiting in scrimmage the
stellar ball carrying on which the
Lexington lads we're counting for a
lot of their 1889 football success.
An injury at first, believed to be
merely sprain, was pronounced a
broken ankle by Lexington physi-
clans. He will be out at least six
weeks. The accident spread gloom
over the General encampment at
Nimrod Hall in the Alleghanies,
where Kelly Literal, letterman

149 pounds. He had to pad out
his nominal avoirdupois with a
chunk of the old heave-ho or
college try.
The next fall, when Stagg went
to coach at Springfield (Mass.)
College, his batch of plays in
cluded some in which both ends
dropped back. Thus at one
sweep he had a wingback sys-
tenn, a six-man backf1eld and a
f1ve-man line. The regulations
of 1890 were not as stringent as
now. The compulsory seven-man
line was introduced in 1906. In
1904-1905 there was a six-man
line in force, but the forward
pass still was year away.

Eight Starters Lost,
But Requirements
Appear Strong
Potentially Good Cadet
Squad Now Training
Under Coach Wood
BY WHITNEY MARTIN,
Associated Press Sports Writer,

WEST POINT, N. Y, Sept. g.
A diploma bombardment inflicted
heavy losses, but requirements are
being hurried forward and Capt.
William H. Wood visions "a fairly
representative team" on the Army
football front this fall.
1--WE have a potentially good
squad said the trim coach with the
slate-gray eyes, but you never can
teal until the new men see action.
We lost eight starters, leaving quite
a gap. The new men and returning
nine lettermen are big enough and
fast enough, but what they will do
remains to be SEEN"
That the squad has potential pow
er is evident from a glimpse of the
regiment of spry youngsters Wood
is drilling on the verdant acreage
within punting distance of the wind
whipped Hudson.
There is stock, shifty-legged Art
Frontczak, the only regular back re-
turning and probable star. There
is Capt. Harry Stella, one of the best
tackles in the Nation last year, and
Bill Gillis from Cameron, Tex, fine
center, and Larry Greene, another
center, who possibly will be shifted
to blocking back
Big Gaps to Fill.
But missing are such men as Huey
Long and Woodrow Wilson, both
stellar backs; Jim Mather, tackle,
and Riggs Sullivan and John Sam
uel, ends. Filling the vacancies they
left is Woods major problem.
With the exception of Frontczak's
position, the backfleld is wide open.
If Wood has any ideas as to who will
step in, he is sharing them only with
himself.
He admits he has one fine line
candidate in yearling, or sophomore,
Jim Rooney of New Orleans, who
played two years with Loyola of the
South, and consequently has only
one year of competition left for
Army. Rooney, stocky 1885,
FOUNDER, who knows the answers,
plays guard, and probably will have
as running mate Ev Light of Daven-
port, Iowa, letterman.
Jim LotoZo. another letterman, is
a tentative choice for the tackle
position opposite Stella, but the
ends appear destined to be manned
by non-letter men. Stan Hutson of
Sesser, ILL.,, and Francis Yeager Of
New York have the inside track
right now.
Six Games "Man-killers."
BY Representative Army team"
Wood means team that can win
seven or eight of its nine games.
which is about par for the Army
course. Three of the games this
fall-with Furman, Centre and
Ursinus-might be placed in the
light exercise class, although Army
officials look toward Furman with
a skeptical eye.
Furman held good Clemson team
to 10-to-7 score last year.
The other six games, however. are
man-killers, and Wood is greatly
concerned over the building Of
adequate reserve strength.
The team will continue to play
the "old Army game" a single
wing-back style developed through
years of graduate coaching and in
cluding choice mixture of power
and deception.
The schedule:
September 3O-Furman at West Point.
october 7-Centre at West Point.
October 14-Columbia at New York.
October 21--Yale at New Haven
October 2S--Ursinus at West Point
November 4-Notre Dame at New York
November 11--Harvard at Cambridge
November 1s-Penn State at West
