Lewis, in his first assignment as head coach, assumed command ot the demoralized Cleveland (Rams of the National League and 1 on successive Sundays trimmed 1 two of the greater and unbeaten 'powers of that high-powered or-! ganization, the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears the best that money can buy.

"I loosened up our offense a bit," explains Art Lewis, simply. 1 "I kicked the backs back a yard land a half, so the interference could get in front of the play." This is only Lewis' third fall out of Ohio University, where he helped Don Peden to an undefeated campaign in 1935, which included a victory over Illinois. He served with the New York Giants in 1936, coached the Ohio Wesleyan line last season, and came to the Rams as a playing assistant to the veteran Hugo Bez-dek this autumn. He took charge of the Rams when the wolves and boo birds got Bezdek after the club suffered its tliiid consecutive defeat of the reason making it 13 reverses in 14 league starts since the out- fit entered the loop a year ago. Lewis does not profess to know oil there is to know about the game and coaching it.

The country boy who outslicked i the big time slickers the great I Dutch Clark of the Lions and the famous George Halas of the Bears next spring plans to study first hand the tactics of several coaches he admires and attend coaching schools next summer. Lewis contends that there is as much difference between college professional football as there is in the jump from high school to Lewis wisely chooses to perfect a few plays rather than monkey with a lot of them. Lewis believes that he could do better job of coaching from the bench, but admits that it's an advantage to be in the thick of things yourself when the going is toughest. He halted the Bears' final drive by recovering Ray Buivid's fumble. At 26, Lewis, who stands 6 feet i 2 1-2 inches and weighs 229 nounds.

is the vounsest coach in I professional football coaching the youngest money team in the dodge. Lewis was raised near the little tewn of Middleport, W. which is situated below Parkers-burg, on the Ohio River. He matriculated at Ohio University at Athens, 40 miles away, because his high school coach and most of his buddies went there. I Because he plays only one way I to in.

Closely allied, and second in the list of causes, was that a driver drove too near the center, or on the wrong side of the nigh-way and drivers who drink ranked third in responsibility for accidents.

Ranking fourth, but comparatively far below these three main causes, was too fast driving. Other leading causes were driver fatigued or asleep: pedestrian or bicyclist ran into path of vehicle; improper passing: tire failure; dis regard of traffic control or signal: improper left turns.
