the West's Double Ding EAST By Brad ilson. Football's most talked about formation, the magic and the standardized double-wing mode of attack are to furnish thrills for the fans, a laboratory for technicians of the grid here Friday night. For the East, meeting the West in the second annual high school all-star game In Drake stadium, will use the formation. The West will start most of Us plays from the double wing, the brain child of Top Warner. Both flashy and dressed to please the man who foots the bill in the stands, one of the formations already has had a test of offensive strength, though hardly similar to the one slated here between last year's prep stars.

The Chicago Bears professional eleven, exponents of formation, defeated the college All-Stars using Carl Snavely's version of the single wing, 37 to 13, last week in Soldier field, Chicago. The Bears, apparently, were just too good for the All-Stars. No such difference in expe- RABBIT PUNCHES DEFEAT KASHEY Wampler Triumphs; So Does Bruns. WRESTLING RESULTS. Rohhv Hum (hlrao.

Iowa High School Hogan Fires A 69; Leads By 3 Strokes HEKSHEY, PKNN. (. Ben Hogan, riding the crest of a great par-busting streak, shot a smart in the third round of the Hershey open golf champion ship Saturday for.) total of 205 and a three- stroke lead over Lloyd Mangrum of Monterey, Cal Fourteen under" par for the instance, Hogan needs only a 74,, one over, today. to break Henry be Picard's record of 280 for this tournament, established in 1937. Mangrum came in with a 3S-32 for a 70 and 208, ordinarily enough to put a man in front Shute Has Had Luck.

Denny Shute was six shots behind Hogan, but the Dour Denny was quite satisfied with events as they turned out. He started the day with a cold In the eyes and. had to be treated by a physician. Wearing smoked glasses, Shute went out to struggle around, and surprised himself with a fine i0 which included a hole-ln-one. Shute's iron on the 183-yard fourteenth hit 10 feet in front of the pin and the ball rolled In.

He had an are in 1931 at Augusta, Ga. Shute stood alone at 211, stroke ahead of Jack Grout, of Pittston, who showed his familiarity with this course with a good 69, to go with his 66 of Friday, best round of the tourna ment so far, and only his shaky 77 at the start kept him from being in contending position. Sam Snead hit his shots as well as ever, but couldn't sink a putt. He had an even par for 214, along with Clayton Ileafner, Unvllle, N. who had a 71.

DRAFT PAPERS TO AL COUPPEE DAVENPORT, IA. The Scott county selective service board No. 1 Saturday sent a draft questionnaire to Al Couppee, who is slated to hold down the quarter back post on the University of Iowa football team this fall. However, since there are already enough men in Class 1-A to satisfy any call in September and since Gen. Charles Grahl has hinted that university students will be allowed to complete the semester if they are enrolled before being classified, Couppee will be available for the 1941 Big Ten season.

Couppee is not expected to be classified until after he returns to Iowa City for the opening of practice Sept. 10. Couppee registered for the draft last July 1. Red Sox Purchase Pitcher Andy Karl BOSTON. MASS.

ARCARO GETS A SUSPENSION SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y. Jockey Eddie Acaro, who returned to action only recently after a 30-day suspension, was set down again Saturday by the Saratoga, stewards for "unfair tactics" in his ride aboard Shut Out in the Hopeful stakes. The stewards announced the suspension shortly after Shut Out finished second to Devil Rider in the Hopeful. The offirlnls charged that Shut Out bumped Walter Chrysler, well-liked Ramillies as the latter was moving up very fast on the inside going to the far turn.

Ra millies was almost knocked down and bumped Into the fence. 69 a of Stars rience and power, however, will be present among the stars, assembled in Des Moines by a vote of Iowa fans. Both sides boast all-state performers, tested on the prep battlefields last fall. Their names were headlines from September to November. Few Iowa fans got a chance last January to watch Stanford's Indians, with their formation, best Nebraska In the Rose bowl, but the recent appearance of Stanford Coach Clark Shaughnessy at the state high school coaching school is an Indication that the will be seen in this state this fall.

Principal exponent of the In Iowa is Moray Eby, Coe college veteran and head coach of the East team. Eby decided, when given the assignment, to show the fans of Iowa the modern with all its trimmings. Opposing him will lie V'ee Green, Drake university coach who has staunchly defended the double wing and pronounced it an ideal formation for high the boys on the West squad pair off and alternate In carrying their partner cn their shoulder for a short distance at a trot. Dean. Thomas, East Des Moines 155-pound watch-charm guaid, found himself paired with John Clark Lowell, Webster City's 235-pound tackle.

Dean carried him! Bob Murphy, Atlantic center with the West squad, is the lad who won fame by fulfilling a long awaited desire last fall. He had a yearning to be a ball carrier. So coach Russ Ruff, shifted Murphy to a fullback post and on his first and only play as a ball carrier he ran for a touchdown. After watching the West kickers, George (Dude) Harris, Colfax coach, remarked to bystanders that he had one of the best dropkickers In the state on his eleven this fall. He is Bob Davidson, 160-pound fullback, who, according to Harris, dropkicks on the kickoffs.

Dick Hoerner, Dubuque, and the East's fullback, comes by those shoulders naturally. His father, a dredge engineer, was once a blacksmith and a former professional wrestler. Dick, whose real name Is Richard lister Hoerner, Is a nephew of ELLIS DEFEATS OMAHA NINE, 7-5 Reaches Final Round in Southwest Meet. (The Reglater'a Iowa Newi Service COUNCIL BLUFF3. I A.

The Ellis Insurance nine of Ds Moines advanced to the Class final of the southwest Iowa baseball tournament by defeating the Colonial team of Omaha, here Saturday, 7 to 5.

Both formations lay similar stress on deception, power and passes forward and lateral. Both depend on timed blocking rather than massed manpower to break the ball carrier into the clear. It is not unusual to see both formations send the ball carrier out into the open on his own. Exponents say Sheir system can be mastered by high school players. The East and West coaches have the advantage of working with material that already has come through the prep stage, but they have had less than two weeks to stylize their proteges.

Both teams can muster powerful lines and speedy backfields. Principal backs who are the key men in the opposing formations are Dick Hoerner, Dubuque, the East fullback, and Chuck Uknes, Sioux City's Central High player, in a fullback slot for the West. They'll both do a lot of running, passing, kicking, blocking and ball handling Hoerner with the and Uknes from the double wing. Heinie Engel, the Dubuque grap-pler now retired. Chuck Uknes, the tow-haired Lithuanian star from Central High of Sioux City, almost became a printer but couldn't master the case and substituted Spanish as his subject In high school.

He has three years of the language. Homesickness caused him to leave a munitions plant Job in Denver this summer. His brother Leon is now at Iowa State. Chuck and Don Kroloff, North Des Moines fullback, have struck a warm friendship. The fathers of the two boys were old friends in Sioux City years ago.

2-YEAR PACT Chicago Cardinals Extend Conzelman't Term. CHICAGO, ILL. (T Jimmy Conzelman Saturday signed a new two-year contract to coach the Chicago Cardi nals of tha pa- -vv tional profession- al football league. Charles Bidwell, owner and president of the Cards, also announced that Conzelman would retain his post as vice president of the organization. lrnan, once a profes sional player, (nu.mx, was head coach at Washington university, St.

Louis, several years before he took over the Cardinal position In 1940. FORMATION Here's a quirk opening play In formation, so railed by appearance of the barks lined up on offense. The renter hand? never tosses the ball to the quarterback. The above play, probably one to be u.ed by the East against the Weat. has the left halfback in motion.

On the fnap of the ball the right halfback does a fdight head fake to the right, takes hall from quarterback and drives through center. The quarterback crosses back In front of the fullback, who fakes receiving the ball and starts around right end to cross up the defense. DOUBLE WING Above Is a typical play off double Ming formation to tie ued hy the West team here Friday night. The fullback gets the ball from center, spina, fakes to the right halfback, then barrels back Into the line. The hapless defensive guard (A) Is theoretically mousetrapped and blocked out by offensive guard (B).
