SWIM TIRRIN' the DOPE By VEDDER GARD
mT takes plenty of “guts” to travel out-of-town for independent football games in some of the surrounding towns. We are not talking now of the high class pro grid, but of the “bush” brand of ball. One local team last Sunday, after a battle in which rules were forgotten, had to get -the sheriff to collect the money due as specified on a signed contract. It is a rough and ready type of game. If the visitors appear to be getting the better of the argument, then the battle gets down to the primitive survival of the fittest. We do not say that this is always the case, but in many instances it is only too true. Football is so close to fighting that youths with no discipline, urged on by a partisan crowd, forget regulations and sportsmanship in an overwhelming desire to master, in any fashion, the opponents who are getting the upper hand. It is primeval stuff, this/ football, and unrestrained youth, ever impatient of authority of any sort, has too thin a veneer of civilization to withstand the temptation of the blood urge on the white-chalked field. . oh, don’t be alarmed. Nothing I very serious ever happens. A few battered noses, a black eye or two, several bruises here and there — that’s all. The husky yourig citizens who plaj( are usually able to withstand the physical effects of such a "game.” It may not b© the best training' to give them e -ense of fair play. But It probably is not as much their fault as those who stand around on the sidelines. There seems to be no special remedy. It is up to individual communities, coaches and players. The antidote may be found in organized sport. High school, ! college and the best “pro” football are being conducted more and more in the proper spirit. It is getting to be a rare thing for a team or player knowingly to violate the rules. Those who are opponents of Interscholastic and intercollegiate sport might think over the following: Which would you rather have —sport as It is conducted now. well supervised and coached —or sport carried on in haphazard, fashion with no one in particular responsible? (Major Griffith, Big Ten athletic commissioner, put forth this last thought in a speech here last week to the I. H. S. A. A.) * * * D ; ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY : 0... ° Well. Tuesday was a rood and bod day. but “more aooder” than “badder.” | Laurel treated us all right when Duettiste with seeopd and Smooth Ice won. The two were hooked up in a $lO wln-snd-place parlay, and the place end went over at a Rood price. What a sweet one if Duettlste could have stepped over the hurdles a little faster! Our plunge on Captain Hal was justified, but the price was only 85 cents on the dollar on the *SO win wager. The Captain is promoted to Colonel In our estimation. Now to the sadder part of the tale. Just David was out of the money and Bassorah was third. The latter paid more than even money to show. We had the horse only to w-ln and place. Tears, idle tears. Counting up our winning*. we find the bank roll r.t $325.50. We sorta hate to toss our coin around down at Churchill Downs today, but then we might light on one that will drift In with the snow. This cold weather has chilled ns. We will play BROTH ERL V LOVE In the third, SHAMPOO in the fourth and’PETIE In the seventh —all of ’em *2 win, place and show. This is parlay day. Over at Fairmount JATTNEBAR. NEAT GIRL ami STONEWALL JACKSON (a good Democrat) will be hooked up in a $5 across-the-board combination. At Empire, BLIND PLAY and LUCKY PLAY will get the sort of investment. At Lauretf, WISE COUNSELLOR and SUN RAJAH ore the selections—s3, win, place and show parlay. There’s plenty of action for you on a bad day with nothing much else to do. • * * Mf —“SRS. MALAPROP was down town early' today and we V__J hardly recognized the old lady with her ear-muffs on. Her unlike the modern species, I usually are exposed to the ele- ' merits, but the elements won the argument today. We tried to make a wise crack and said that with the ground covered with snow this was a good day fpr the Dog Derby. The dear old soul seemed rather nonplussed and told us she had lived many years and had seen many strange sights including straw hats on horses, but had never noticed a member of the cayenne tribe expired in a head covering of any conscription except a nozzle. Having stepped out on the wrong foot we tried to get a bit fresh and asked If she was in the market for red flannels. She froze us with a glance, much colder than the weather, and flounced down the street with the parting shot that she had occasionally purchased red peppers at the marktet, but usually went to the department stores for Intimidate wearing apparent. We, no doubt, made the old lady very angry. It is up to us to get on her good side again, hut as she says herself,” I’m hard to specify once I get my dandruff up.” • * * “CAPITAL” PUNISHMENT On the sport page daily all the dope fan sees Are the Y.

We can see nothing the matter with the Notre Dame end of the Army game gate receipts or Minnesota, either, for that matter. More than 100,000 fans went • through the turnstiles at the two contests. Some ends, we’d say, at that pair of games.
ARMY-YALE GAME LOOMS AS CHIEF STRUGGLE FOR THIS WEEK
Two Great Teams Clash at New V Haven When Cadets and Blue Tangle in Bowl. r Bn Timex Special ' • WEST POINT, NEW YORK, Oct. 28.—The Army Mule has started its final drive to meet the Yale Bulldog Saturday in the Yale Bowl at New Haven. Army had rather an easy time defeating St. Louis Saturday. Although the final score was only 19 to 0, it must be remembered that not ONE of Army’s first string line—from tackle to tackle—started the game.
Coach McEwan held regular heavy practice Monday and Tuesday, owing to the fact not all the first team got a chance to work out in the game Saturday against St. Louis. Gilbreth, who was forced out of action recently with badly torn shoulder ligaments, was expected to practice today. McEwan says he believes Gilbreth will be ready for Yale. If not, the Army certainly will lose the services of one of their best backs. All eyes are now turned toward Yale, and this year the Army seems likely to come through.-The smoothrunning team that, ran so roughshod over Notre Dame was again in evidence, though for brief periods, against St. Louis last Saturday. The only question left for McEwan and the other coaches Is to bring the team along to the proper edge by Saturday. ’ Thursday will be ta-pering-off day, and a short signal session will be held in the bowl Friday afternoon. The Army hasn’t beaten Yale since 1911, when the Soldiers won by a score of 6 to 0. The following year Yale turned the tables by the same score. Relations were then discontinued until 1921. The last four games resulted in two ties and two defeats for the Army. Vhis year the situation seems to
ALONG THE SIDELINES
AT INDIANA BLOOMINGTON. Inch, Oct. 28.—Indiana is exeeptod to rely largely on line plays when it meets Northwestern Saturday. The locals are being drilled in defense of the aerial tactics of Northwestern. AT PURDUE LAFAYETTE. Ind„ Oct. 28. —A varied attack is being drilled into the Purdue team In preparation for the Chicago game Saturday. Open field running and passing will probably feature the Purdue attack. Purdue will bo handicapped by the loss of Dode Gladder* and Captain Harmeson, lull back and half back, respectively. AT NOTRE DAME SOUTH BEND. Ind.. Oct. 28—-Coach Knute Rochne Is using the same line-up against Georgia Tech as was used in the Minnesota game last week.

At least five hundred rooters are expected to accompany the team to Pennsylvania. AT lOWA lOWA CITY. lowa.

Ohio, Oct. 28.—Ohio State is hard at w-ork in preparation for the Wooster game Saturday. Coach Wilce is anxious to prevent a repetition of last year's occurence when the Wooster team held the Buckeye to a 7-to-7 tie. AT CHICAGO CHICAGO, Oct. 28. —Coach Stagg Is lashing the Maroon* through hard work, and in an effort to let the team know he means business has taken Sana Htbben, three.-year regular from the line. and substituted Paul Lewis, a sophomore. He is also again experimenting with Groenbaum at center in preparation for the Purdue game Saturday. AT NORTHWESTERN EVANSTON m.. Oct.- 28.—Coach Thistleth waite’s main task at Northwestern this week is the developing of a pair of ends to take the places of Seidel and Fisher, regulars injured in the Tulane game. Bovik and Smith look like the two ends for Saturday The Freshmen using Indiana plays have been able to do little.
Fuller Dope Gives You Slant at His Guesses
EULLER DOPE, football critic of mystery, after spending six weeks giving the many elevens the once over, is now prepared to announce his forecast on some of this week’s leading games as he sees them. Before reaching a final decision. Fuller Dope carefully weighs the information wired him by 200 carefully selected gridiron scouts. Past performances of the contending teams also receive serious consideration in the handicapping of the entries. Fuller Dope takes great pride in thd fact that he picks no more winners than any of the other so-called expert football handlcappers. He also wants you to bear in mind that his second guess is invariably better than the first. . Here is how he picks ’em in the following dozen big games scheduled for Oct. 31: ...
TEAMS Brown vs. Dartmouth Chicago vs. Purdue Cornell vs. Columbia Georgia Tech vs. Notre Dame Hoiv Cross vs. ltucknell Michigan vs. Navy Nebraska vs. Oklahoma Pennsylvania vs. Illinois Yale vs. Army Syracuse vs. Penn State Alabama Poly vs. Tulane Kansu vs. Drake
No Second Butler and Wabash Conflict.
• Butler and "Wabash athletic authorities are unaware of a “movement” to have another football game played between the two colleges, Thanksgiving day, therefore it can be taken for granted no second contest will be held. Athletic Director Page, Butler, said today that the rumor had no official foundation and Athletic Director Scholler, Wabash, made a similar announcement. Colleges are not in the habit of meeting on the gridiron twice in one season despite the lure of gato receipts. Schedules are arranged ijt advance and seldom are changed or additional games carded. Butler and De Pauw played a tie contest and Butler and Wabash the same. Wabash plays De Pauw, Nov. 21. If there is a "superiority dispute” to be argued among the three rivals, there will be a chance for a comparative score decision after t K Wabaah-De Pauw clash.
be In better favor for the Army, although there is no doubt the Yale team, with all Its veterans, will prove to be the hardest team, probably, that the Army will face this year. Certainly it will be stronger than Notre Dame, and in much better physical shape than when it faced Penn. It probably will be on© of the finest games of the season.
RODEO J3LAYS Wabash Hopes to Stop Kutsch, lowa Flash. Till Timex Special CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Oct. 28. —“Rodeo Plays,” as they are dubbed by the Wabash varsity, were shown to the Little Giant eleven at practice today, as Coaches Vaughan and Reese explained some of the new formations devised to slow up the touchdown propensities of “Cowboy” Nick Kutsch, the lowa sensation. Although they will be heavily outweighed in the game with the powerful lowa team Saturday, the Little Giants are encouraged by the showing made by the light Scarlet forward wall against Butler last week. Coach Vaughan announced no heavy workouts would be held before the Hawkeye game. The entire squad emerged from the Butler game in good shape, and Robinson and Weber, 'varsity ends who were unable to play against the Bulldogs, have recovereed from injuries and will be ready to start in Saturday’s game. The team leaves for lowa Fridays noon.

GRIDIRON STRATEGY
Defensive Play of Tackle By Ed Me Gin ley, Pennsylvania, All-America Tackle, 1924. — N defensive play, a Pennsylvania tackle covers his territory Oat all times. One cardinal principle is that he must never run behind his own line of scrimmage in order to stop a play in the opposite side. , In other words, a tackle should never cut back of his own line of scrimmage first. If he can stop a play on the opposite side he must do it by following round be-hind. This is a basic principle of tackle play to which there is absolutely no exception. For a tackle to pass behind his own line of scrimmage in an effort to stop- a ay on the opposite side means that he would thus weaken his own side and create an opening that might prove costly. ' An alert quarter back would be quick to take advantage of such tactics on the part of a tackle, by running a reverse play or a delayed thrust right through the opening caused by the desire of the tackle to cover too much ground. A tackle should be heavy and strong enough to be a tower of strength on defense. I am convinced that the strongest play of most teams i.s their off-tackle play. I believe there is more men that come directly at the tackle on this play than in any other play in football. , An off-tackle play is usually not overly deceptive but is always mighty powerful. The man with the ball invariably runs directly at the tackle with the other three men of tho back field leading him. A tackle should also work with his end in rusdiing the passer and in blocking kicks. By working together I mean Just this: A half back of the offensive team will have the job of stopping both the tackle and the end. Obviously he will have an easy time if the tackle and end charge him together. So the defensive tackle and end must be prepared to charge him with some distance betweon them. In this way the offensive half hack can only block one man, giving the other a chance to get through and hurry the kick or block it or hurry the passer or prevent his making th© pass. I used to charge In close, and go up the alley, as we say In football, while the end went wide. This forced the offensive half hack to decide which one of us he w-anted to stop, for it was impossible for him to get both of us.
