Bussey ’s Cry for Grid Union May Be Dawn of New Era, Suggests Williams
By JOE WILLIAMS Times Special Writer NEW YORK, Oct. 21.—Unionism has reared his shaggy noodle in the college football world. A young man by the name of Young Bussey has been tossed off the Louisiana State squad ostensibly for non-observance of training but actually, or so he insists, because he sought to organize a players’ union. “I told the fellows they needed an organization like the C. I. O.,” he says. His dismissal followed. The common labor objective is more money and shorter hours. Mr. Bussey’s complaint has nothing to say about salaries, so it must be presumed the wage scale in force at L. S. U., more widely - known as Huey Long’s College, is satisfactory. But it does seem that sweat shop hours prevail. “The players don't get enough time off from football to study or have any fun,” he laments. The spectacle of a football -player clamoring “for an opportunity - to
enlarge his mental gifts is unusual enough and would practically stand as the high light of the season but for the introduction of the union angle. This is the first time any such suggestion has been made with respect to college football.
Possibilities Unlimited
For some time the skeptics have insisted college football players should be accepted as a salaried class along with industrial workers and white collar workers and it may be that Mr. Bussey's radical move presages the dawning of a new economic consciousness in the football business. Just hew far the pattern of unionism will be followed remains to be seen. The possibilities are unlimited. It has been suggested beéfore, once publicly by the dean of a leading Southern university, that there should be a minimum wage for the campus heroes. A strong, aggressive union should be able to accomplish this. Some years ago it was revealed a Western fullback was being paid $75
a week for giving his all for dear old: Alma Mater. This was unusually generous and the revelation drew much comment. In fact, it was instrumental in provoking the celebrated if entirely futile Carnegie investigation into the morals of college football. What I remember most about this investigation was a meeting of the regents of New York University. This was during the Chick Meehan days. Mr. Meehan had. been brought in to do a high-pressure job on football. He was one of the few coaches whose success led to his dismissal. He did his job too well. Anyway, at the aforesaid meeting it was brought out that one of Mr. Meehan’s star halfbacks was getting $10 a week. Theoretically he was performing odd jobs around the campus. gentlemen present. But one precious,
commented: “Is that all we are paying that boy? Why it's an outrage. The
boy is worth 10 times as much.” Or words to that effect. .
Printcraft Loop Squad Wins Bowling Honors; Murphy Tops Keglers With 690
John Murphy, rolling with the Hendren Printing Co. squad in the Printcraft League, captured the individual honors in last night's bowling meets with a heavy 690.
First place laurels for a quintet also went to the Printcraft loop as the Quality Flowers scattered the wood for a 2920 total. Another Printcraft club, the Rapid Rollers, just missed jumping ahead of the Flowers when they rolled a blistering 1116 third game. They scored an even 900 and a 902 in the first two rolls for a 2918 total. Murphy opened with a 214 then soared to a 258 and finished with a 218 for his pin total. F. Ward of the Flowers hit a 616 and Fritz Bohtman caught a 603 while Roe, Reynolds and Vale shot 558, 568 and B75 respectively. They completely outclassed their opponents—the Indianapolis Printcraft Club—and swept their series. In the initial roll the Flowers cracked a 945 to the Club’s 863. For the middle game the Flowers total jumped to 987 and the Club boosted their total almost 100 pins to a 958. In the final frame the Flowers remained consistent and posted a 988 but the Club faltered to an 887 as every member of the squad shot less than their middle game. Lutz rolled a 608 and Tyner a 627 for the losers for their only honor counts. Chryst held up well with a 562 but the 462 of Pavy and Adamson’s 454 were too low to keep pace with the Flowers who totaled 2920 for the Club’s 2713.
In scoring their 1116 final game the Rapid Rollers shot individual game scores of 255, 170, 211, 257 and 223. On total pins West. was low for the quintet hitting only a 511. O. Gorman shot a 559, Comer posted a 605, Moxley a 613 and Walt Heckman was high with a 630. The Printcraft League was well represented in the honor count rollers.

grows impatient. Gradually’ he comes closer and closer, trying to get into the play. It is now time for a reverse. ! Again the play starts as a straight drive toward the left side of the defense ‘with the left halfback carry-
'|ing the ball, but just as he reaches
the line of scrimthage he hands the ball to the right half who races around in the other direction. The guards have pulled out but they have gone toward the defensive right side and the fullback is leading the interference. . If the right end has been coming too close, they drive him in and sweep around him, otherwise they drive him out and take the tackle in. This is a favorite play of Pittsburgh, in the Warner system and of Purdue, using the Notre Dame system. The very best right ends are fooled by it sooner or later. A notable victim last season was Chuck Sweeney, all-America end at Notre Dame. All afternoon Mershall Goldberg of Pitt had been hammering: at the left side of the Irish line and Sweeney in desperation began to leave his position and run behind his own line to meet the Panther Powerhouse coming through his left side.

Pitt also used this play . to heat Ohip State two years.ago and it is the same play from which Johnny Drake and Duane Purvis ran with such deadly effect at Purdue. When watching a football game notice how the offense begins with straight football and then, ss the defense moves to .meet it, counters with its other weapons, the spinner and the reverse. Watch the defensive left end and left tackle—are they being taken out? Are the blockers making contact or missing their assignments? Who is responsible when a play fails to gain?
