Forward Pass Offers Many Opportunities for Strategy in New Football Game forward Pas-s icl CYoss Pass THE WHIRLING PUNT The whirling punt noses its way straight ir-to the air like a. rifle bullet Its whirling movement is due to a cut given by the instep brought directly up undei ball- The ball falls nc.ioss the Instep The foot meets tne ball highei from ground than In the selling punt an more in front of the body It Is a dif ncult kick to master, and when a duffer attempts 1t he onlj succeeds In giving the ball a wobbling motion that fights he all The other rules for stepping are tho same as In the sailing punt BY GEORGE BROOKE If one could go up In a balloon and get EL birds-eye view of is going on In all the football fields In the country an! than with a magic carpet drop into all thQ secret co incils of the coaches ha probably get some- original idea on football that would rather startle He might sail out to Michigan and watch ndjljien he might fly over to Chiago and study Stags and the-i comlns on East ht might visit the big unlvers ties and find out what Walter Camp, Czar 1 Reid Tiger 1 Coch-an "Quaker Carl Williams and the rest arc doing Ho wojld probablj discover that all them were studying out a way to et the use of fi" forward pass which Is That forward pass will do more to revolut the jgime than any other thing In the new xules you are thinking about the rforward-pass play do not forget that your two ends can get the ball when Tpassed forward from a back fltld man ITour other line men cannot touch It Diagram III Illustrates the forward pass In this play the ball Is passed from the center to the quarter Lack and from the quarter back to the I ft half who gets it on the run The ght ha back has started full speed almost pai allel with the rush line and the full bach likewise The right half runs back of the -opposing left end, the full back runs inside of him and the quarter back in side of the full back The left half back the instant ha is tackled by the oppos ng left end, or even better just before lie IB tackled passes the ball forward to the right half back who has run on for abou three yards ahead Tne ball is passed er the head of the tackier with bo hands It the opposing left tackle is playing far out the rii'ht end takes care of him and the right tackle goes through and hits the opposing full back, leaving the full back and quarter back to block the opposing left half back in the interference The guard goes through and tries to block any of the defensive p'ayers trying- to back up their end. The center does likewise also the left guard The left tackle and left end go straight on down -the Held Trey either block the opposing quarter back after they get down there or turn In and help the runner in any other way possible A Clever Crisscross -Diagram IV Illustrates a crisscross with a forward pass AH four of the backs stand in a row about four yards back of the line The Instant the ball Is snapped all four take one step to the left The full back and left half back stop after this step and stotop down, so as to hide themselves, biit the right half back and the quarter back go on The center rush snaps the ball directly to the quarter back, who passes it to the left half back as he goes by him then the full back and the left half back start around to the right The left half back when he is tackled by the opposing left end, passes the ball on to the right end the full back In the meantime going ahead and interfering The right end lets the opposing left tickle charge and helps the right tackle lo block him then he moves out so as to be in position to get the forward keeping his eye on the position of the opposing left end so that he wll! not be too fur away or too close when the forward I ass is made to him The rest of the learn block their men as long as neces sar which Is however quite a little whil" and then go through and hit tho second line of defense The- beauty of this play is that when the defensive team sees the ball passed cnrectlv from the center to the runner it will calculate that the tun must be out ilde of tackle for the rules require this Therefore the whole team will be apt to move over In that direction and the deception is thus made greater As a variation of this play the qua-nter back must give the ball to the full back as runs by, and the full back dash straight ahead between right guard and center, with the left half back on his back, or then again, there need bo no deception no fake no trick, the quarter can just keep out on a round behind tbo CUT MS THE SAILING PTJNT. This, cut shows how the long, low "sailing" punt Is made Starid with feet together, aboat eight cr nine yards back of center Take a little step forward with the right foot as you catch the ball with outstretched hands Then bring up the left foot sharply not straight ahead, bu a little to the right, so your body will be leaning to the left as you kick. You ca get more weight Into It in this way The swing of the ng-ht leg should be wide and long- and carried (neU through At the Stan; of the swing Hie leg is bent at the knee, but It Is snapped perfectly straight like the snap of a whip wben the foot hi ts the ball The instep ia outstretched a rfcctly stiffly so as not to have any giv when it hits the ball.

The Instep ts the ball just enough off the end (an inch, or two) in order to give tho ball ailing motion indicated by the cut. Io not drop the ball on the foot, but it below the wa'st and toss It gently forward as you step Toss.it well away am you and low to the ground. The all sails fiat and smoothly on the air, And In this way meets with a minimum of esistarce other three men interfering for him In this way you have three plays from this backs-on the-llne" formation. In our signal system the odd numbsrs go to the right and the even to the left. Each play has a number of its own When the signal giver who la nearly always the quarter back wants to call for a eertam play, the signal number of the play In several other numbers, and the other players know the key to the number it is the second or third number of the series Suppose for instance, the key was the second number and the signal elver want- ed to call for number 4, play He then might say 18-7-13 16 12 I will now suggest a very good key to use You will note that I started the signals at No 7 Well, make your key number the first number with this provision, that if the signal giver uses any number up to seven for the first number, then, these numbers do not mean anything In other words, the first real signal number given Is the signal For Instance, suppose I wanted to give the 32 play, which, if yon have sa-ved last Sunday's article, you know mean 1 the right half around left end, I might say 12-18-1E-Z or 6-12-18-1B-2, or 1-4-12-1815-2 In this way you fool the opposing team completely Any simple method like this Is all that is necessary Never have your signal key number mere than second or third number, because then ypu interfere with fast play Never leave your signals laying around written on a piece of paper There may)fta traitor 1H "school looking for just such chances He will taka.a, copy and give it to jonr rivals and then bet against you A good signal giver must first of all learn tb giwe Signals evenly and smartly Ha mast flrst give them slow and then fast, or one time veil and the next whisper Bach number should be given like a word of command Sloppy signals confuse your own side, but signals given jjroperlj should inspire the men The quarter-back should call for a play as if that play was the best in the world right in that place If his voice shows doubt or hesitation, his men will Le Insensibly affected by It If a captain commands his soldiers to charge in a.

The quick "kick tends to keep the quartet? back on defense playing way back, because no one else has time to go baclc and help nim Another reason for Its use that the opposing ends do not jour ends The 'whirling punt" Is designed for a Ions, high kick which will be difficult to handle It gives the ends more time to set down the Held it cannot be used vary- effectively in the quick kick so It Js from regular kicking formation, and se eral fake kicks, which 111 give later, con, be used in connection with it You will find that your ends In going down under tins kick are blocked by the opposing 1 ends while they will not be so blocked when your left half back mokes a quick kick HUNTING AND FISHING The recent rains penetrated the dry hills for a depth of several inches before the "water began to cause discoloration of the tShenandoah and Potomac rivers, ana it have been of shorter duration and less cloudiness would have marked conditions had not stroig winds caused the mud which covers the hidden rocks to Tna.T.e largely washed into the general While the rain ceased in September, all tha upper streams improved to that 6x- ilont that good bass fishing was had along the South Branch the Potomac, and iShenandoah Hundreds of fish were taken, they all had that light-slate color "which characterizes them when the waters fare undergoing a change from mud to Burr Brady at Bomne, reported fortj- Jtwo small-mouthed bass taken by a Wash- Qngton enthusiast In one day The indt- tcatlons that the upper river was Jnever ao full of bass aid large ones Tilentlful Many fishermen have been un- In their efforts which is due no tha fact that the flsh have not had sufficient clear-water period to scatter in some locations, where river Im- have been going on, and ex- fcesslve blasting made a part of it, the jepecles we-e not found Between M'llvllie.

The perfect recovery where the handi body, and slide finish together, and the hands are sent put like a. flash of lightning, takes a well-jointed oarsman years to learn, to hurry the less adaptable pupil in his learning stage is fatal I think the present day coaches are too anxious to get a lively recovery and are thereby apt to defeat their own object I varied in my coaching from the orthodox 'varsity style vhen I went to Cambridge the reason, being I had the advantage of hearing some 'varsity oars discuss the different styles --Australian and 'varsity, and though prejudiced in favor of the former they ccr Cinded, after a practical trial, that a combination was the best I also rowed with the metropolitan clubs, and exchanged Ideas with Hastle and others who were brought up In a different school to the varsity oar I coached for a combined style and the result was the papeis called us sluggish, and yet we rowed a record trial and stayed head of the river and won the Grand In 1886, with the same crew we Towed In the May races-rthe only time It has been done, I think Thames Won the Grand.
