It presupposes moral responsible

is paramount and a coach who will
sacrifice either for the school or
crowd pressure is not worthy Of
coaching. Second to the school

to all schools who promote the
game. That includes the ethics
of coaching, development of stu
dent and player good sportsman

Of education that makes American

sponsibility to a rabid and some

enjoy it. Their enjoyment Of it
should be of secondary moral
tone. /. AS bill payers they have
a right to see it go. AS interested

LTCHFIELD HERE
Turnout Cracks
Squad on Eve
Of Opening Tilt

Attendance at drills - that has
actually pared a squad of As to a
figure much lower-cracked hard
at the 1941 football edition of the
Sauk Centre high school, it was
learned this week through the
coaching staff, as the springboard
game of the season was set to
catapult the local team into the
West Central Conference race to-
morrow.
Litchfield, with q rangy line
and showing promise, comes to
the Sauk Centre O-Sa-Ge field
tomorrow evening, Friday, with
the show to open under the
lights at 500.
Looking back over nearly a
month Of pre-schedule drills, head
coach Ray Schwartz said emphat-
ically, Attendance has been poor"
A squad list of forty-five who
showed up for early drills is shot
through with the attendance prob
lem, he indicated.
While cOnscriptiOn hasn't hit
high schools athletics directly,
its far-reaching effects are be-
ing felt. There are infinitely
more Jobs open to high school
students now than at any time
in the last decade. Schwartz
said that boys working, who
had intended to play football,
has become a real problem for
the staff.
Add to that the normal run OF
those who can't play because of
parental objection, the chronic
ioiners" who come out and then
leave the coaches stranded with an
empty uniform and a couple of in
iuries and the squads actual
strength falls far below the ex-
pected level. Paul Keldahl, vet
eran, was out this week with an
ankle sprain and Bud Veeder was
on the injured list and is back.
But there was a bright spot in
the whole thing too. The boys
who have been coming out are
showing grand spirit, coaches have
said time and again through the
last month. The line, inexperienced
in a number Of spots, is heavy and
plays are being adapted especially
to it's weight and its inexperience.
The backfield gives promise of be-
ing fast. No position, however, is
deep enough in reserves.
Litchfield, losing a non-confer-
ence opener to Hutchinson go,
comes as the seasons opener with
a team of promise. HAH, in the
Willmar Tribune, says of them,
"They are going to be hard tack
lers and vicious blockers by mid
season. A rather rangy line doesn't
have a whole lot of experience but
with a couple of more games un-
der their belts, the boys are going
to be tough"
Litchfield all but defeated Hutch
inson. They marched to the goal
in the opening period and with
stood onslaught after onslaught
from the Hutch gang until late In
the fourth period Hutchinson was
able to pull its clincher.
Two-deep strength at the center
of the line and talent in ball hand
ling are the edges claimed for
Litchfield by the Meeker County
News, of Litchfield. Tackles and
ends were their uncertain spots in
a line that is showing great strides.
Straight football is said to be de-
pended upon for their gains. Even
so they are five deep at the tackle
spots.
There's no breather in this sea-
sons schedule. 1t opens with a
game that counts and plenty II

we have supposed might happen In
minor or even general situations
But coaching ethics and the fact
that coach, unless his material
is equally deep, frowns on frequent
substitutions. Frankly, they
aren't looking for much in the way
of major change in the game at
fecting the fans standpoint. =.
The advantages and possible
disadvantages seem to balance
up pretty well. 1t Is the only
change that is major SO far as
the public is concerned and 1t
is interesting to note that
changes made do have In the
background the public interest.
Now let's see how 1t works.
The attendance problem-old, old
bugaboo for athletics-has hit deep
into the nape of the neck of foot
ball here this year. Coaches
tell us that lots Of the boys aren't
showing for regular drills, that
their learning of fundamentals is
being hampered by it. Turn
out at drills is no new problem.
But it has been enhanced this
year by the presence Of more jobs
open to high school students than
in a decade at least. 1t is serious
ly tempting to boys to earn a little
side money.
Nor should they be censured
for it. Boys whose parents do
not allow their participation
should be censured neith-
er; those opinions, once they
are clearly formed after the
parents have been given avail
able facts, should be respected.
But in both cases the boy
who signifies his intentions to
play football and then falls to
show for drills but is carried on
the paper list" of the squad
strength, the boy is at fault. -.
He should be making his deci-
sions at once. If he finds work
to his liking then he should
drop the squad at once.
Or he should try to arrange
with his employer to sandwich
the work in with his athletics.
It is nothing unusual to have
the fringe crowd, the joiners, who
want to be in everything but are
actually in nothing. 1t is no more
a part of youth than of adulthood
For no other reason than the
fact they tire Of the drills, they
cease to come. But on Friday night
with the crowd and the lights
there they are-on deck expecting
to play. It is not unusual that
a number after a week or two quit
A boy comes home, battered a bit
tired to death and unable to eat
his supper or drag his tired frame
to bed. 1t takes plenty of guts
to stick by a game until that siren
uous period passes and tired mus
cles cease crying out. But once
they are in it that far, they have
committed themselves. Either
then they are in or out. There is
no such thing as hanging on the
fringe, refusing to meet the obliga'
ton but wanting the whole party
It's on these that the real
attendance problem hinges. .

New Substitute Rule
Brings Out Slants-
Coaches Minimize
Delays in Game
But It's Possibilities
Are Loaded With INT
Attendance Problem
Bites Deep In Squad
.
There hasn't been a rule change
in a decade that has caused so
much shouting around the run
ways as the unlimited substitution
rule now injected into both high
school and college football. :.
Under the rule simply a coach may
substitute a man as many times as
he wishes. The player must stay
in the game a minimum OF one
play.
Interpreted properly the rule
should cause no trouble. 1t is
pointed out delays In the game
will result; that coaches may
now run the game from the
bench. But we've talked
with a number of the local
schoolmen who pooh pooh
these ideas. The rule was
primarily put into force to aid
the small schools and colleges.
With q limited number of play
ers a coach under the old rule
was faced with having to al
low a player to repeat mistakes
through an entire quarter sim
ply because the player could
not be substituted again. -.
Actually schoolmen here look for
none of the tiresome delays in the
game, nor do they think that
coaches will unwarrantedly substi-
tue men. They point out, very
practically, that a coach who SUBJ
stitutes too frequently is only slit
ting his own throat. Players
showed in and out of the game for
a play or two aren't even given
opportunity to warm up. :.
But there is this much about
it. The rule is potential dy-
Mantle in the wrong hands and
under the wrong Interpretation.
1t requires first of all that
coaching ethics assume even an
higher plane. Obvious purpose
of the rule is to grant more
freedom for firing boys and to
aid small squads. But a
coach might turn 1t to mean
the advantage of running the
game entirely from the bench.
Quarterbacking from the bench
could be accomplished in an
exaggerated case. But it is in
direct violation Of one of the
tenets by which football is sold
to the public. The game pre-
supposes beside physical de-
velOpment, that boy will
learn, given the proper start
and the training, certain
amounts of leadership, sespOn-
sibility, ability to think clearly
under adverse conditions. IF
a coach takes away that train
ing from their quarterbacks-
boys who have shown more
than average judgment for
their years-then they've lost
one of the prime motives Of
the game.
Obviously it is a boon to coaches
who have the we'll being of their
boys at heart, and who don't want
to allow their men repetitiously to
make laundering errors throughout
an entire half of the game. :.
It could be turned as a neat
defensive weapon. Frequent
substitutions in the face of the
team who is marching steadily
toward the goal might upset
the advance. >. Time outs are
often employed in basketball
and other sports to cool of a
hot offensive. But this allows
even more freedom of move
ment, but carries the upsetting
premise of destroying some of
the spirit of the defensive it
self.
While we're on the subject we'll
