You Be the
Quarterback
By Worren Goer
Heed Football coeeh, Drake University

Heed foofpuh @ooen, Dfoke ohNe's"y
Georgia Tech, a T-formation
team, features a belly" series.
In this, the quarterback loops
along the line, goes with the
fullback, puts the ball in his
belly, then may pull it out and
lateral, or keep the ball, or start
a lateral-forward pass play.
Now the belly series has been
stopped by Southern Methodist
on running attempts over and
outside the offensive end posi-
tions. From a wide 6-2-2-1 tsix
man line, two linebackers. two
halfbacks. safety. the SMU de-
fensive ends have come IN
sharply playing the fullback, and
the halfback has come up to
play the pitchout so fast the
Tech blocking end can't get to
him In time.
Tech and Southern Methodist
have played ScoreleSS f1rSt nall
At halftime the Tech coach
points out that short gains have
been made over guard. that their
great pass catching left end has
had only two passes thrown at
him. and that the SMU half
backs are coming up fast for
the pitchout. Tech receives in
the second half and returns to
its 32-yard line.
AS Tech quarterback, rate these
plays /, 2. 3 and 4 for this spot:
Handoff to halfback up mid
die.
Pitchout wide.
Pitchout and pass to right
end behind defensive left half.
Pitchout and pass to left end
deep down middle.

Crucial Big Ten Come Comes Eorly
Wisconsin Has Horses to Go
All the Way Against Sportons

In a long-distance telephone
interview at the Chicago Foot
BALI Writers Association lunch
con. Williamson said "we'll have
to give a peak performance to
stand up against Michigan State.
They'll be fired up because of
the Iowa game"
On the same line a few min
utes later, Spartan Coach Hugh
Daugherty said his club couldn't
hope to beat Wisconsin If it
made the mistakes made in the
Iowa game.
iowa was the better team, 7"
said Daugherty. I'VE didn't de-
serve to win. When we made
errors. as can be expected in an
opening game. they capitalized.

NEW YORK, Sept. 29.-Being
the underdog is nothing new
with Manager Leo Durocher Of
the Giants. so the 9-to-5 odds
favoring the Indians to win the
World Series don't impress him.
odds don't mean a thing to
me-" Durocher snapped before
sending his club against the
Tribe in the Polo Grounds today.
"You win them on the field, not
with bets. Naturally, my guys
think they're going to win"
That was about as close as
Durocher has come to forecast
ing the result of the series. He
has a self Imposed rule that he
doesn't make predictions on the
outcome of Giants games.
Durocher's opening day Pitch
ing choice-ancient Sal Maglie-
produced no eyebrow lifting
among the experts.
I'll have two shots with Mag
lie, which is what I want" he
said. "The Barber needs con-
siderable rest between starts. I
can still get three shots with
Johnny Antonelli if I need them.
I'm not saving any one. That's
a cinch. This thing can go only
seven games"
Maglie was his usual serious
self. but he did offer an obser-
walton.
II learned lot pitching to
the Indians in the spring." he
said, "even though most people
don't think those spring train
ing games mean much"
Like Durocher, Capt. AL Dark
played it cagey when asked his
prediction on the outcome of
the series.
Lets see now" grinned Dark,
a former Louisiana State foot
ball star, who's Notre Dame
playing Saturday."
"Who knows" he added seri-
ously. I'm just glad to be in
it again"

UCLA Expected 10 Be
; or 4 Point Favorite
Over 1erps Friday
By MerreII Whittlesey

Maryland was a 6-point under
dog on the West Coast today
for Friday nights game with
UCLA in Los Angeles Memorial
Coliseum, but an informant said
the Terps probably would be
down to a three or four point
underdogs at game time.
The Terps will leave tonight
at 10 o'clock from National Air
port carrying 40 men, one more
than they took to Kentucky. The
estimated flying time is 10 hours.
Although Maryland is only q
touchdown underdog, the host
UCLA team is an almost unani-
nous choice OF the Coast football
forecasters. However, the same
situation would exist If the game
were to be played here. With the
same squads, Maryland would be
a likely favorite in its home sta
dium.
Not Sure of Outcome.
A member of the Maryland
staff yesterday put the game
thusly:
when we went to Kentucky,
we didn't know what they were
going to use because of their
change in coaches. but we fig
ured we could beat them what
ever they used. We did, and,
although the statistics favored
Kentucky, we never were too
alarmed.
Against UCLA, we know what
they're going to use, but, be-
cause the single wing is so
strange to our boys, we're not
sure what the outcome will be" "
The Maryland coaches all
breathed easier yesterday after
the last rough workout before
the game left all of the key men
in good shape. Coach Jim Ia
tum almost apologized for the
continued contact, but added
that his team needed it against
a club coached by Red Sanders.
Will Use Platoon System.
Tatum said he planned to use
the platoon system Friday night,
sending the second club in after
eight minutes. The tempera-
ture was 81 degrees in Los An
geles Monday and 88 on Tuesday,
and although 1t will be consid-
erably cooler than that at game
time, $3.50, Jim still figures the
Terps must have almost equal
performances by the first and
second teams.
Tatum is disturbed over re-
ports that Sanders has been
highly critical of UCLA's per-
formance in its victory over
Kansas. The Bruins coach has
pointed out time and again that
four of UCLA's five touchdowns
came as the result of Kansas
mistakes.
"All three of our touchdowns
against Kentucky were the re-
suit of their mistakes" Jim said.
OF course. Sanders dissatis-
faction may stem from his sys-
tenn of possession football. With
the single wing, the UCLA coach
prefers to take the ball and ram
it down the opponents throat,
yard by yard. in those long
marches that consume time.
Sanders is strict discipline
rian and one of his idiosyncra-
cies is that his players keep their
helmets on from the time they
leave the dressing room until
they return.
That repeatedly comes from
a kicker being unable to find his
helmet when Sanders was at
Vanderbilt. The fellow didn't
get in the game In time. Wander
bilt lost on q blocked kick.
Tatum is long on superstitions
and Is somewhat concerned over
the fact that police escorts are
not permitted in Los Angeles
from hotel to stadium.
The last time Maryland played
in q state where police escorts
were not allowed it lost to Mis-
sisslppi.

Roy Mack Gets
Two Weeks 10
Find an Angel
Richardson Group
Matches Johnson's
Bid for AS Franchise
BY The Assoeioted Pres.

~ sHe AssoCioIe0 PTSSS
NEW YORK, Sept. 29.-Roy
Mack today embarked on a final,
desperate two-week search for
$750,000 in cash to gain control
Of the Philadelphia Athletics.
It was learned that Roy has
given the American League writ
ten assurance that if he can't
raise the money he will listen
to outside offers to buy the club
which his father, Connie. found
ed in 1901.
Roy refused comment on his
chances. So did his brother,
Earle, who has been in favor of
selling right along. Roy would
use the money to buy out Earle
and his father.
Roy Mack gained his two
weeks of grace at a seven-hour
session of American League
owners here yesterday in the
same hotel room in which the
league voted exactly a year ago
to move the st. Louis Browns
to Baltimore.
The owners listened to two de-
tailed plans to buy out the
Macks. One came from Arnold
Johnson, a Chicago real estate
man who wants to move the
club to Kansas City. The other
came from Tommy Richardson.
president of the Eastern League
and a director of the Athletics.
Each of the offers was for
$3,375, 900. This would cover
Connie Mack Stadium in addi-
ton to the franchise. The Mack
family would have to pay it's
debts, estimated at more than
81 million, out of the proceeds.
Privilege of Moving Later.
Richardson's offer, which he
said came from a small group of
monied friends, would keep the
AS in Philadelphia in 1855. But,
he said, he needed assurance the
league would allow move ito
any one of six or seven cities
if we decide Philadelphia def
nitely no longer is a two-team
town"
johnson was disturbed at the
leagues delay. Richardson was
pleased.
II have to get my architects
and engineers together to see
what they can do," Johnson said
in discussing plans to enlarge
the present Kansas City ball
park from a $1,000 capacity to
$4,000.
'I don't think I can finish the
job. I'll have to check it out.
Every delay makes it that much
harder to prepare Kansas City
for major league baseball"
Delay Pleases Richardson.
Richardson said he appre-
ciated the additional time.
"As a director I've been on
the inside right along" he said.
when johnson first offered
something over 81 million ad-
vised they take it. It was only
after that offer came down and
I decided Roy couldn't raise the
money that I made my bid. It's
been less than a week and was
hoping the owners would give me
another two weeks or 80 days"
The owners will meet again
after October IL. No definite
date or site was announced but
it was understood the meeting
will be held in Chicago, home
town of both Johnson and Will
Harridge, league president.
Roy Mack has been trying for
several months to raise the
money to buy out Earle and
Connie and repeatedly has de-
clined to consider offers that
did not include himself.
Johnson's first bid was made
more than six weeks ago.
The owners at yesterdays
meeting took no vote of any
kind nor did they make any

Arlington County today lifted

of water effective at midnight
Monday.
Since June 8. the watering OF

quested that "the public use the
water with caution, particularly
until such time as a heavy rain
fall occurs"
The county receives its supply
from Washington's Dalecarlia

because of inadequate distribu-
ton facilities rather than a
shortage of storage facilities,
county officials said.
The public was asked to CO.

amounts so as to avoid re-impo-
sition of the ban.

oil Portrait Hidden
Since '04 Believed

BY The Associated Press

CHICAGO, Sept. 3.-An I'M
signed portrait believed to be the
only portrait of Tecumseh, the
Shawnee Indian chief who led
1000 warriors asalnst the United
States In the Var of 1912, has

planning was exercised by the
haulers. w. T. Cowan. Inc, city
traffic particularly plagued the
caravan after it left the Bedi-
Passy Art Foundry in Brooklyn.
Z After a bit of delay here and
there in Queens, the three fiat
bed trucks, and the lead car,
were escorted over the long Tri-
borough Bridge and through New
York proper into New Jersey.
The drivers, carefully chosen
for the long haul, watched with
care that trucks passing in other
lanes did not brush against pro-
truding sections of bronze arms
and legs. AS a result of such
care. the parts. uncovered so the
public COULD see them, received
not a scratch during the trip.
Each Underpass a Problem.
A major headache arose with
the section that had component
parts of the great bronze Marines
in prone position on the f1atbed
truck. This section. in that po-
sition, still measured IA feet
8 inches high, and produced
a ticklish problem everytime an
underpass was encountered.
Although the New Jersey State
Police co-operated fully. as did
troopers all along the route. it
was in the Garden State that the
bulk of the headaches appeared
to arise.
CITY" drivers were dropped in
Union, N. j.. and were replaced
by "road," or country drivers.
There was q tWo-hour delay here
because an escorting trooper had
to come from a distance of so
miles.
From then on. the route be-
came q devious one. not only
because of underpasses, but
overhead wires. And the trooper
was not too familiar with the
