WILL PRESENT RESOLUTIONS Democrats Aim Three At Republican Tariff Law In U. S. Senate Washington. Sept. 3. — .U.R; —Democrats will lay down three resolutions aimed nt the Republican tariff bill as soon as the senate reconvenes tomorrow from a three-mouths summer recess. The first, the Thumbs resolution, j will seek to eliminate all of the hill i save the increased agricultural rates; the second will call upon Republicans to reveal the embarrassing division in their own ranks encountered while , they were naming the bill in the senate finance committee, anil the third will demand a compilation of the dollars represented by the various interests who appeared before the committee in behalf of higher industrial tariff dutis. With these three resolutions, the opposition will formally open the long awaited contest which is expected to last for months, and upon the fate of the first resolution may depend the whole tariff issue. Nearly all of the 94 seated senators were on hand today ready for the opening. Chairman Smoot of the finance committee in charge of the bill announced he would not expect debate to start tomorrow but would demand the senate get down so business without fail Thursday. The first schedule to come up for action is the chemical provision of the bill, a $28,000. boy schedule. o— BRITISH MOVE TO STOP RIOTS (CONTINUED FROM PACK ONE) ping the leaflets throughout the populated regions of the country.

Fundamental* Sometime this coming football Reason you will pick up the sports page and read where some learn won a game because It bested its opponents in fundamentals. A coach's repertoire of pluys may be better than that of the opposing coach. But Is his team versed in the fundamentals? Every beginnei In the sport must learn the fundamentals. They Include kicking, passing running, blocking, tackling, rooting, charging bucking etc. To know these fundamentals is to know football, Fundamentals are football. The evecution cf them makes a game. Fundamentals can be divided and siib-diA'ided into two diasses. They are: handling the ball, and handling the body. These two main branches aie divided into two more classes: offensive handling of the ball and body, and defensive h nulling. A player is rated by his fundamentals. A backfield man who can buck.' run. kick and pass is a boon to any ' team. When the hall is passed back to him from center the opposition is in a quandary. They don’t know whi’. he will do. On the Hue. thep layer who is as good offensively as he is defensively is the player who rates the first eleven. He must charge fast and root and block perfectly. In handling the ball it is necessary to practice until the proper form is at- j tallied. There is an old saying. "You ] play as yon practice." It is true in football. Whenever you are handling the ] ball, whether in practice or at play, it should be done always in the pro- j ( per way. In carrying the hall on runs or L bucks, it should be tucked away se-! j curely. as the tacklers may tackle the trail for a fumble. If the ball is carried in one arm. it should be made an outside one so that the other arm can be used to ward oft wouldbe tacklers. In passing the ball, much practice Is , needed. Some players grip the ball ! a little back of center, but this bakes time. Others pass the ball by placing the ends of the fingers along side the ( laces. When the ball is released it is given a twist to make it spiral. The twist is attained by swinging the wrist to the side. Nowadays the center also employs the spiral me:hod of passing the ball to insure accuracy. In the old days, the center used the end over end or ploat pass, but this was never sure. The I

ball should lie gripped in the same manner when passing from center as it is when forward passing. A wet ball Is very hard to handle. Only proficiency in handling the hill will guarantee fair handling of the pigskin on a rainy day. Scooping up fumbles is an art all in itself. There are no set rules; the player usually gets the knack by practicing himself. John Levi, of the Haskell Indians, was one of the'grtatest passers ever produced. In the Big Ten. the passing combinations of Friedman to Oosterbaan, of Michigan, and Wyman to Bustain. of Minnesota, are outstanding. Indiana University has tVo great passers for next season In Magnabosco and Balay. Chicago has Mendenhall, and Put due has Harmeson. Editor’s note!
