Octobr 11, 1940 THE WISCONSIN JEWISH CHRONICA Jews In Sports Recently we cited a rather vivid example of how a good scout could win a hall game for the university that hires him to be just such a football directive. Anecdotes about the scout and his observations have become legion. But exactly what is a football The scout is the man who sits high in the press boxes on a university stadium and whose notes are even more detailed than some of the stories emanating from the working press section. He either pays his way or more often or not is given the best eat in the house by the very team he is scouting. They expect the same courtesy to their own football detective.

In order to show you how this works, let's take a mythical example. Since Babe Scheuer, one of the scouts for New York university, is the prime source for these articles, suppose we say that NYU is scheduled to play Minnesota in mid-November. Babe gets his assignment early in the sea-ton and he watches Minnesota play Notre Dame, Ohio State, Nebraska, Michigan and Tulane and his boss hopes that the notes the Babe has compiled will become the fuel to feed the fire that will burn Minnesota from the face of the football world. Watch for Tricks If Babe has done his job better than the scout from Minnesota who has been watching NYU throughout the season, the Violets will come through on top. And even though the experts and the "pools" have picked Minnesota to win, NYU will be on top in what is commonly known as an "upset." Recently we quoted just such an example.

Well give you others today. It's up to the coach to drill the fundamentals into his charges and see to it that his lads learn his system of play. With luck he can come up with a ratzle-daizle, hipper-dipper gang of players. But if the school and the head coach want a winning team then they need a couple of good scouts. Teams these days are nearly all very good but what tricks can the scouts dig up that will help their own teams to victories to upsets? When Sid Luckman was a sophomore at Columbia university his team played Stanford university at the Polo Grounds on a bitterly cold day.

Columbia defeated Stanford by returning the ball on the kickoff for a touchdown. It was the only score in the Kame. The papers next day wrote of that runback by George Furey as either an accident or a brilliant individual feat. However, that score, as Babe Scheuer told us, was due to excellent scouting on the part of the Columbia football detectives and excellent judgment on the part or Lou Little, who outwitted the guesses of the Stanford scouts. Little realized that every man, boy and scout in the country knew he depended on Sid Luckman to get most of the kickoff a and then run like all getout.

Sid had done that very same thing for a touchdown through an entire Army team earlier in the year and the Stanford scouts had seen him do it. Result: "Watch Luckman down the sidelines." Found Loophole However, in the Columbia-Stanford game the kickoff went to George Furey by premeditation. Furey the Columbia quarterback and blocker who hadn't carried the ball a dozen times in his whole college career. He was standing in the center of the field on his own 20-yard line. He never looked to the right or the left.

He just ran straight to the goal line seventy yards away. Columbia players seemed to come from nowhere to block out the Stanford lads. George didn't have to stiff-arm or dodge a single opponent. Well, now, whst did scouting have to do with this? Columbia scouts had reported that Stanford kickoffs usually travelled straight down the field; fast: and low. So the Columbia lads were told just what to do.

If the kickoff went down the center, the lineman in the middle of the field were to "double team" tho Stanford players; that is, two Columbia players were assigned to take one opponent. The Stanford ends coming down under the kickoff near the sidelines (under instructions to get Luckman on the kickoff) were to be ignored. They were out of the play. Each man had his assigrment just as he had on any offensive play. George Furey's run in that Stanford game looked to the spectators like a sudden, spectacular exploit.

Actually it was a bit of routine teamwork: Tipped off by their i Heralded as the most modern automobile to come out of the motor car industry, this aew Naih Aero-pow. ered Ambassador Eight is being formally introduced to the public throughout the country. Following the high standards set up in the aircraft industry, the power plants of these fleet new ears are America's only stock car twin-ignition, valve-in-head motors, with temperature control developed to a new high degree. 5 scouts, the Columbia boys had tried this play in practice fifty times.

No one could tell when he was going to pass or when he was going to run or kick. No one, that is, until Babe Scheuer arrived on the scene. Ho watched the Georgia gang play each Saturday and must have smiled as he realized "Well, that's one game we'll win anyhow." Caught By "Wet Finger" "NYU Wins" screamed the Sunday Nork was stopped cold. The Violet players seemed to know just when to pQe in and smother the unfortunate Nork and when to drop back to knock down passes. Nork didn't complete a single pass nor did he get away for any appreciable gains.

How come? Simple. Babe had noticed that every time Nork was going to throw a pass he wet his index finger. So, when Doakes college wallops the mighty Notre Dame team and the headlines call it a "terrific upset," coaches and scouts smile tolerantly, They know the inside story the play that enabled Doakes to stop the Notre Dame attack. Spotlight Review NOTES OF THE STACE, SCREEN AND RADIO By Mclvin Spiegel Shelter Eddie Cantor has announced that he will open his Long Island home to shelter one hundred British refugee children. "Aside from humanitarian reasons." said Eddie, "I want to pay back England for her help in aiding my fund to assist refugees from Ger man territories, tnglish people gave the fund $560,000.

It is ironic that many who gave money to my fund now need aid for their own Whispers The old chestnut about shouting "wolf" or, in this case. "Galento," cracked wide open the other night at the "Hit Parade" broadcast. Every week, just before air-time, maestro Mark Wamow and announcer Andre Baruch proceed to pull the wool gently over the studio audiences' eyes. War-now called Baruch over to his music stand and whispers in his ear. Baruch nods knowingly, walks to the edge of the stage and says, "Ladies and gentlemen, wc have a celebrity with us tonight Tony Galento." The spotlight on the balcony swings down, on one in particular and mild pandemonium follows.

After things have cooled down sufficiently, Baruch adds the final touch by yelling, "I'm very sorry, madam." Recently, during the "prelim" tnumbo jumbo, Wamow whispered something in Baruch's ear that puzzled him for a moment. Then, thinking that Mark was just trying a variation on the format of the joke, he walked to the edge of the stage and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we have a celebrity with us tonight Bunny BerrigJin, who plays one of the hottest trumpets in America." The spotlight swung down. Berrigan took a bow. Warnow doubled up with laughter and Baruch just grinned uncomfortably and slid into the wing3. Drums For a recent "Forecast" show, the huge CBS thunder drum had to be carried from the main New York building to the CBS Studio building across the street.

Dampness loosened the cowhide drumhead. Rehearsal was scheduled for the same afternoon and the drum was a featured instrument in the show. Someone suggested lighting a fire under it to tighten the skin, but the idea didn't seem practical. Then someone else OFFER JEWISH ART CALENDAR The Boston Fish 512 W.

Information "Who's Yehudi?" the question millions of radio listeners have been asking will be answered in Republic's motion picture, "Who Killed Aunt Maggie." For those who can't wait to see the picture to find out who Yehudi really is, here's the straight dope: Yehudi is a cat. Artie Auerbach, "Mr. Kitzel" on the Al Pearce program, is negotiating with a major studio for the sale of a screen play he has just completed. It's a satire.

The world-renowned who lives at nearby Princeton, was welcomed American citizenship by Federal Judge Philip Forman with the observation that Einstein's "presence here becomes America's gain."

The film tells the dynamic story of Knute Rockne from his early childhood in Norway to his tragic and untimely death.

Koc line's wife Bonnie, is played by lovely Gale Page and she gives an excellent performance as the woman who un derstood and encouraged rum when he most needed encouragement.
