PAGE TWELVE GRANGE FASTEST PLAYERZUPPKE EVERJOACHED Here Is Greats Mentor's Opinion of Illinois' Brilliant Backfield Star. ALTON EVENING TELEGRAPH fKffllto I firirfiv Qridimn BY BILLY EVANS In Harold "Rod" Grange, Illinois has one of the grenest halfbacks thfl west hns boasted in years. If he continues at his present clip throughout, the season there will bo no keeping him otf the All Western eleven. Incidentally "Red" Is entitled to much consideration ns nn All-American possibility. The day prior to the game between Illinois nnd Chicago, In a chat with Coach Zuppke of Illinois I brought up the nnmo of Grange.

There was twinkle In Zuppke's eyes at the very mention of It. "He's the fastest halfback I have ever coached. He's a wonder in his sophomore year and Is going to gqt Wldewwue Football Mojt Neceiiary As- and Brawn Are Not NptretDame Coach the Fighter. "Muscular co-ordination and foot' ball brains are the two greatest assets of any player who desires to star In football, particularly at Notre Dnme," says Knuto Rockne. "Beef and brawn are not at all essential," assorts Rockne, "although they do have their place In certain systems.

Tlio featherweight, has as much as the honvywelght In my scheme of football." One has only to follow Rocltne's Notre Damn eleven through several days of practice, nml then see tffem in action in real competition to appreciate his size-up of the modern game. "Give me a team composed of players who can think, theremy making use of their speed and natural physique, and I have no fear of con- coding poundage. In the Army game, man for man, Notre Danio was outweighed from 15 to 20 pounds. Notre Dame beat the Army because my players were able to out-think, out-maneuver and out- spned their opponents. "Next In Importance Is a real liking for the The- player who loves the game Is Invariably a fighter, one.

Muscular co-ordination and "foot ball brnlnn nro tho cardinal prln clples of Rocknn's system. Ho dwells on them from the time the season opens until It closes. Notre Dame's system of attack under Rockno Is somewhat standardized, varying but little from year to year.

Individual brilliancy Is not sought. Individual stars are subordinated to the lenm. Rockno Is the master mechanic of football who welds the parts Into the grldfron machine. Ho adjusts and regulates as flaws begin to show in the Inexperienced player. From time to time he adds a bit of polish here and there until ho' hns his eleven In trim to start tho season, a finished product.

Muscular co-ordination nnd football brains, there you have the" fundamentals of Rockne's scheme of football.

Ho Is going to help make Illinois foot- hall history or I am no judge of football players." Pralze From Zuppke Quite a compliment coming from so famous a coach as Zuppke, who Is not Inclined -to enthus, usually over-conservative about handling out praise. On the following day It was easy for me to see why Zuppko enthused over Grange. The Illinois sophomore Is one of the fastest men of tho year.

He runs without the slightest effort. He's big and husky as halfbacks go, wpmler at pick- Ing passes out of tho air, at best In an open field and exceedingly hard to tackle. In one of his rushes against Chicago, five wearers of the got hold of him only to bo thrust aside. Grange has starred in every game in which Illinois has played this season. He leads the Western Conference in point scoring.

In the opening game of the season against Nebraska, Grango scored three touchdowns. 'Leads In Point Scoring In tho game with Butler, Illinois was trailing until Grange got Into action. In quick time he put over two touchdowns and put Coach Zunpke at ease. In tho 9 to.fi victory scored Iow4 It was Grange who. put over the touchdown that gave tho Big Ten champions thoir first setback of the year.

He made this score by taking three passes from Britton, averaging better- than a 20- yard gain on each pass. Against Northwestern he scored thre etlmea, once running 90 yards after a fPnvard pass. In the game with Chicago he scored the only touchdown of the game gvilng Illinois the victory. Jn that game Grango performed the remarkable feat of carrying the ball 17 times for a gain of 173 yards, ALTON ELEVEN PLAYS GRANITE CITY TOMORROW Last Conference Game for MacWherter's Men Western Eleven Plays McKendree at Lebanon Allow Hlgli school's football eleven tomorrow will play its semi-final panic of the season, opposing the Granite City eleven on tho enemy's field.
