DETROIT, June 28.-The prob
lem of an adequate defense
against the T-formation still is
the No. l headache for the Ma
tion's football coaches.
So declared University of De-
troit Coach Charles E. Baer to-
day as he reported on exhaustive
experiments he has conducted to
set up such defense.
Baer asserted he was more
convinced than ever that a de-
fense against the T can be evolved
only by revolutionary departure
from present defensive funda-
mentals.
This summer, by the use of
special timing devices set up by
our department of physics, we
timed several of our T-formation
plays" Baer said.
Then with some of our best
defensive players as guinea pigs
we figured the average time need
ed for defensive lineman to see
the direction of play and then
get to a danger spot.
I'VE experimental for several
weeks with perhaps two dozen
ball handlers. We finally con-
cluded that unless faulty ball
handling or a bad center pass
slowed down the offense, the T.

District Net Tourney
Likely 10 Scramble
Annual Ratings

With two of the four major tennis
tournaments which weigh most
heavily in annual rankings out of
the way, it is apparent that there
will be many changes in the Dis
trict's list of top players before an
other spring rolls around.
Barney Welsh naturally has the
lead for Austin Rice's No. spot with
his victories in The Stars City of
Washington and North Virginia In
vitational affairs. But from there
on down the situation is thoroughly
scrambled.
The District mems tourney, open
ing tomorrow at Edgemoor, should
help clarity the picture and after
that come the Public Parks and
Middle Atlantic. Some unheralded
pill-pounder may come out of the
pack to knock King Barney off his
perch, but even If this does not hap
pen the jockeying for remaining po-
sitions will give the net colony some
exciting action.
Entries for the District tourna-
ment close today at pm. with Bill
Shreve at the Tennis Shop, 1141
Fifteenth street NV. The seeded
list and pairings will be drawn to-
night for the opening round and
play will continue through next week
with the title round scheduled a
week from Sunday.
There is some doubt whether
Welsh will play. He has not been
heard from since leaving for the
tournament at Cincinnati
and may have gone to River Forest,
ILL.,, to compete in the national clay
courts tourney. He had half a no.
ton to do this when he left
With Barney out, Hugh Lynch,
Frank Durham, Buddy Adair, Allie
Hitzenberg or any one of several
other players who play about the
same speed, could grab the trophy
and that would help complicate the
rankings But it also would help
inject some new interest in the
campaign and that seems to be
what is needed.

Navy Yacht Among IS Tuned
For Newport t-Bermudo Race
By MolcoIm Lombourne, Jr.
S.or Stoff Correspondent

NEWPORT, R. /, June %
Thirty five yachts, ranging from the
36-foot sloop Hokuloa, sailed by
Walter Mcneil of Baltimore, to the
72-foot ketch Vamarie, one of two
Naval Academy entries, were being
readied off here today for the re-
newal of the 635-mile blue water
race to Bermuda, beginning tomor-
row forenoon.
Last minute Withdrawals of at
least six yachts narrowed the fleet
to 35, which is eight boats less than
the number that started in the last
ocean race in 1888.
DR.. Valentine Hess schooner Fawn
of Washington was scratched as a
result of sale of the 25-year-old
craft to a South American yachts
man. Another Chesapeake Bay
entry, Carleton Mitchell's Ketch
Carib, was withdrawn because of
illness of the owner, who makes his
home at KenWood.
Washington, however. will be rep
resented by the 67-foot yawl
Maruffa, owned by Jack Graham, jr.,
who is a member of Annapolis Yacht
Club. Graham made his home at
1905 Ingomar street NV. From
Bermuda, he plans to sail around
to the West Coast and take up resi-
dence at Seattle, Wash.
In addition to the little Hokuloa
and Vamarie, the Bay will boast
another Navy entry, the 62-foot
sloop Highland Light, which still
holds the record for Bermuda
race-7l hours, 35 minutes and 43
seconds, chalked up in the 1882 race
An international tone is being
supplied by the entry of the Royal
Ocean Racing Club, the 70foot
yawl Latifa from Southampton,
England. She recently arrived in
this country after 1000 mile ocean
voyage and will be trying for the top
prize (The Bermuda Trophy for
a second time. Rigging trouble
forced her out of the 1888 race.

hope will bring the fleet in fairly

That means that unless a de-
fensive man is exceptional, he
won't have time to make his ini-
tial charge and then swing either
to the right or the left to stop
the ball carrier from picking up
yardage. We are assuming, of
course, that he sees which way
the play is developing immedi-
ately and goes straight to the
spot" he continued.
Baer said the inability of the
orthodox defenses to stop the T
has resulted in mushrooming
of such hybrid formations as the
four and five man defensive lines
and that eventually some similar
alignment will be necessary to
offset the enormous offensive ad-
vantages of the T.
The only consolation is that
