Wider Use Of Spread, ,
More Open Football
Seen by Hagerty
Come Will Be Patterned
Largely After Rugby
He Tells Coaches
Special Dispatch To The Star.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, Aug. 30.-Wider use
Of spread plays among college foot
ball teams and opening up of the
college game even more because of
this trend was predicted by Jack
Hagerty, Georgetown University
football coach, at the closing ses-
sion of the annual New York Herald
Tribune Coaching School.
Boys like It," Hagerty told his
audience. "and they take more in
terest in practice and think up many
variations, and also defenses to stop
the spread. The crowd loves it,
too"
Hagerty emphasized that the
spread Is not Georgetown's basic
formation, although 1t was en-
ployed from one-half to three
quarters of every game last season.
He said 1t was designed to expose
weaknesses in the enemy defense
that might be kept hidden by ortho-
dox football.
In forecasting more and better
wide-open football patterned after
rugby, Hagerty pointed out that the
triple TANKER in the new Notre
Dame attack, explained by Frank
Leahy at Mondays session Of the
school, and the T-formation with
man in motion were steps in the
direction of spread plays, which, in
turn, leaned toward rugby.
