TWELVE THE EVENING INDEPENDENT. MASSILLON. OHIO WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 27. 1937 NEW CASTLE'S GREATEST AMBITION IS TO BEAT MASSILLON OFFENSE IS POLISHED GOLFERS NOT UP ON RULES OUIMET FULTON INDIANS WILL FOR LOCAL GRID DUEL Red Hurricane Has Been Pointing For Tigers Since Start of Season; Brown Alters Defense, Takes On New Play By LUTHER EMERY Take it from Washington high school scouts, New Castle's Red Hurricane will show Massillon more offensive football Fri day than the Tigers have faced this year.

In fact Hugh McGranahan and C. C. Widdoes who have watched New Castle perform several times this season are ready to herald the Red Hurricane as the best offensive football team they have seen, and they have looked over a great many in their week-end trips. Uses Pass Successfully New Castle uses the forward pass to perfection with Lauro pitching from his fullback position. The scouting report on the Hurricane's passing is sufficiently impressive to cause Coach Paul Brown to alter his defense for the first time this season.

In all their games this season the Tigers have presented a 7-1-2-1 sts-le. They will likely start off that way Friday, but if New Castle passe; begin hitting their mark, fans will see them shift quickly to a 6-2-2-1 style which allows one -additional man to cover the open spaces. In fact the Tigers would be in a 6-2-2-1 today were it not for one Snavely, An expert defensive pla.yer. Snavely has carried the entire burden of backing up the line. Most teams have two and three men immediately behind the line of scrimmage, but few teams have a defensive player of Snavely's ability, one who can plug the gap on running plays and cover up on passes.

New Castle Best Passing Team The Tigers on the other hand have not faced a team this season as handy with the forward pass as New Castle, and Coach Brown is just a bit afraid the backer up job Friday will be more than one man's work. New Castle has been traveling along at a good clip this season and has lust only to Youngstown East, Youngstown writers took the liberty to call it an upset for East was expected to lose by a couple of touchdowns. Those things can easily happen in football and Brown is thankful he has a complete scouting report on the Hurricane. TJpsets usually occur when one team points for a single game and catches the opponent, off guard or on a low night. It is no secret that New Castle has had its eye on Massillon from the start of the season.

In the past 15 years, the Hurricane has held a mar- LEADERS LOSE INDUSTRIAL ALLEYS DUELS Heck's Inn Still Lead Circuit With Two-Game Margin STANDINGS Team Heck's Inn Long Pietzcker Blatz Shoes Ohio Water Co "tt'eirich Chevrolet Baton Mfg.

The Hurricane has yearned fpr revenge ever since and let it be known at the start of the season that Massillon was the one game it wanted to win. Large Delegation Coming Here In fact New Castle fans have been so pumped full of the Hurricane's ambition that a supply of 1,500 tickets sent the Pennsylvania city has been practically exhausted. The scoreless tie with Warren Saturday was looked upon in Nen- Castle as a trivial matter.

"Players were looking through the mist toward Massillon," they said which was just another way. of saying New Castle was attempting to take Warren in stride while pointing its guns for the Tigers. The snow -handicapped both teams, and may have helped Warren stop the Red Hurricane once on the one foot line and agan on a fumble on the yard line.

Attention is also being devoted to cut back plays several opponents this year have over- shifted in an effort to stop Tiger off tackle thrusts.

Ouimet, three-times Walker cup team captain, thinks highly of today's young golfers "but in my opinion they can't come up to our internationalists of 1920 to 1930, and they don't know the rules as well, The one-time national amateur and open champion is a busy man these days in his brokerage office, but he always finds time to talk golf.

He likes especially to explain why he's helping the Mas- sachusetts Golf association to. educate the golf public on "Out'at the national amateur championship at Portland, he related, "I saw numerous cases of rules violations. The most flagrant, one, I should say, was by younger placers who repeatedly stamped down the line of their putts with their clubs." "Now, the rules allow you to brush away impediments with a club, but you mustn't apply'any weight. Yet it was a frequent occurrence. "At the water hazards." too, the boys would face away from the hole and virtually pick their lines, whereas the rules say you must face the hole and drop the ball over the shoulder." "It's my impression," Ouimefc went on, "the of today know less about the rules than the players of older Ouimet was asked how the 10 1937 top-notchers would compare with the early Walker cup players.

"Well, I may be prejudiced- in favor the veterans." he smiled, "but I think we could have handled the present stars." "After all, there was Bob Jones, clearly the greatest amateur of all time; Chick Evans, who in his prime was a close second; Jesse Guilford, Harrison Johnston, George Von Elm, Jesse Bob Gardner and myself. "Of the present group, I think only Johnny Fischer, Johnny Goodman'and Little could stand up in the top company of the veterans."

Only three players who started against Washington hisfh last fall will be in the New Castle lineup.

They are Dombroski, an enfl last year who has been moved to right guard; Nocera, left end and an excellent pass receiver and Rons- sos, left tackle. Nicoletti and. Sovesky, are small shifty halfbacks whose speed make them- particularly valuable for cut back plays. New Castle follows Jock Sutherland's University of Pittsburgh system closely and accordingly relies principally on power in the running game. 136 202 166 165 Totals 883 Water Company Krafcker Greenfelder nirieh Rastetter Martin Handicap 878 143 105 154 153 So I 178 104 14i 157 160 73 158 I3S 122 153 203 8t Totals 828 311 365 east Ohio Gas Co.

To date that has been one of the main weaknesses in the Ram lack of good blocking backs. Convinced that the worst is over after their second consecutive engagement with the Packers, the Rams arrived back home and immediately to work in an effort to effect a clicking combination that will meet the Cardinals in Chicago this Sunday. Despite their defeats the Rams are a definitely improved team since their last meeting with the Cards which the Chicago team won by virtue of a recovered fumble and subsequent touchdown run by Gaynell Tinsley. Their offense on the up-grade, the Bezdek eleven may come out of Sunday's battle with a win if their defensive play is on par with what it was in the Card game here. The addition of Johnston to help pave the.way for runners like Drake and Snyder may mean the difference between victory and defeat.

The newest Ram stands only 5 feet 9 inches, but weighs 105 and is a product of Marquette. The Rams came out of Sunday's game without any casualties and should be in top condition when they i leave next Saturday afternoon for the Windy City.

"The lateral pass is a nice play to watch, but dangerous," says Lou Little, Columbia maestro. "Dovetailed into a balanced offense it is a. factor, but not an important one In advancing the ball." Hooks Mylin, mentor of Lafayette's unbeaten, untied and unscored on eleven backs Lou up.

"It's a great play to see done -well, but often it is costly to the offensive team." A survey of 20 of Saturday's major games shows not one of the 40 teams resorting to lateral legerdemain for scoring plays. But efforts to hide the ball and the point of attack have been 'redoubled, the reports show. Spinners and fake spinners, single, double and fake reverses abound and the forward pass never has been employed with greater profligacy. Three years ago Colgate's Red Raiders knocked New York fans out of their seats with four-man downficld laterals, laterals which started forward pass plays, and laterals on the end of forward passes. That day, against Tu- wasn't football, according to the southerners, it was a black magic.

Now, Ohio. State which has turned loose its reserves of power, Colgate, struggling to gain a major victory, has given the lateral play the go-bye. It may be -treason, but Kerr is talking straight -football arid his boys are playing LUTHERAN LEAGUE STANDINGS Team W. L. Pet.

The total compensation paid injured workers is about $240,000,000 a year in the United States. connected with the battle, but Bob Zuppke still has a special yearning for an Illinois triumph over Michigan Saturday. For Michigan is the only Big Ten rival holding a victory margin over Zuppke-coached bands of Fighting Illini.

Since 1919 when Michigan ended its long absence from the conference and met Illinois under Zup- pke for the first time, the Wolverines have won nine out of 17 battles. A victory Saturday would square the Michigan account for the master strategist in his silver jubilee year at Illinois. Zuppke has an edge over seven Big Ten teams, while the other series, with Ohio State, is all even. At Notre Dame, Coach Elmer Laydcn forgot all about last week's victory over Navy as he watched two reserve teams equipped with Minnesota power plays, run the eyeballs out of the Irish varsity. Striving to halt the kind of maneuvers they will face Minneapolis Saturday, the Notre Dame regulars yielded two touchdowns, both made through sustained drives.

The Gopher work! wit was conducted in strictest secrecy. The poweiful Ohio State squad was given a long scrimmage, a move on the part of Coach Francis Schmidt to rid the Buckeyes of the idea that Chicago's brave little band will be a pushover Saturday. The Maroons again worked on their offensive, with Coach Clark Shaughnessy still making shifts to patch up the reserve department. Northwestern's Wildcats plotted a defense for Wisconsin's aerial game, while the Badgers scrimmaged the freshmen as Coach Harry Stuhldreher sought the punch so noticeably missing against Pittsburgh last' week. Iowa freshmen did so much damage with Purdue plays that Irl Tubbs threatened two-hour scrimmages daily until the Hawkeye varsity snaps out of it.

Injuries, particularly to backs Tony Juska and Tony Ippolito, hampered the Boilermakers. Bo McMillin concentrated on Indiana's defense, but found time foi" a brisk rehearsal of new forward passing plays the Hoosiers will use against Nebraska's powerhouse at Lincoln Saturday.

All the will be. played on Thursday afternoon because tlie schools will be closefl Friday enable teachers to attend the Northeastern Ohio Teachers' convention at Cleveland.

Western Stark's two other clubs, Brewster and Navarre, also will see action with Brewster traveling- to Uniontown Navarre going to Waynesburg. The other games will send Marlboro to East Canton and East Sparta to Greentown. Good Game Expected Fans who attend the Fulton-Jackson game should see a hard-fought contest. There never has been any love lost between athletic teams of the two schools and when they get together they play for keeps. Encouraged by their 46-6 victory over'Brewster last week, the Indians will be out to add another victory to a string, which they hope will bring them their third straight league -championship.

The tribe showed plenty of ability both on the ground and. in the air last week and it looks like a busy afternoon for the Jackson'gridders Lineup Changed The Indians, however, will not go up against the same club which'lost four games in as many weeks. Better than a 'week ago Coach Bill Donnet, seeking to find a winning com-, bination, changed his lineup completely!

A National Basketball league franchise has been warded to Dayton and applications three other cities, Canton, Cin- innati, and Chicago, are under onsideration of league officials, Clifon "Lefty" Byers, secretary-treasur- announced- today.

The Dayton franchise was awarded Bill Hoskefc, former a'll-Big Ten tar at Ohio State, who said he is ot yet in a position to disclose what layers he will have on his team nor team's backer. Ed Jacobs, veteran sports promoter, has requested the Canton franchise while John Wiethe, a well-known southern Ohio basketball has applied for the franchise for Cincinnati. The Dayton club will compete in the league's western division, being bracketed with Richmond, Port Wayne, Whiting, Indianapolis, and Kankakee. Cincinnati and Chicago are both seeking berths in the western division. Canton, If admitted, will compete in the eastern division, which includes Akron Goodyear, Akron Fire- srone, Buffalo, Columbus, Warren, Pa.

The backfield is somewhat uncertain due to the fact that Montgomery sustained an injury in scrimmage Monday. Seifert and Eckenrode are the only certain backfield starters with Getz, Halter, Hoffman and Sheetz in the fight for the other positions. Regardless of the change in the Jackson lineup, however, Coach Nip Helm's Fulton-club appears to be the better team and will enter the game as the Brewster will be given an-, opportunity to help Canal Fulton's bid for its third title in its game with Uniontown but will have to pull an upset to do the Indians any good.

Uniontown' is one the highest barriers between the tribe and the championship, and a victory over it Railroaders the' Fulton cause considerably.
