1011. 8 XTTE MORXIXG OUEGONIAN, TUESDAY, OCTOBER "INSIDE" FOOTBALL KEY TO SUCCESS vpr Who Masters Finer Points of Game Has Big Advantage. COYLE IS QUICK THINKER Washington Quarterbnok Pemon Mrate Knowledge or RnlM by Action In Content Played Against Muscovite. BT ROSCOE TAWCKTT -TVe hear much of Inside baseball, la there such a thing aa Inside foot balfr queries a gridiron enthusiast, who. doubtless. Is still puxzllng over oroe of tho rules of modified football a played now by high school and college ele"ene- Indeed there Is. but the rule hare been changed ao much In the past three r four aeasona that few of the spec tators have had the oportunlty to ac quaint themselves with the finer points. Every player on an eleven has many chances to "pull the lr.slde stuff." but the quarterback Is the position which most needs the ability to graep situation and grapple with It In a new way. Quarterback Coyle. of Washington Inlverslty. showed a flash of 'inside" play Saturday against Idaho. In Spo kane. Under the present rules, when a forward pass touches the ground It becomes Incompleted and the ball Is taken back to the spot of the preceding down, a down Is added, and the ball Is again put In play. On one occasion Coyle went back to punt, but the pass was poor and Idaho men swarmed through the line and It looked aa If Covle would be downed In hie tracks. Coyle grasped the situation at once, however, and hurled the ball ahead to an open spot. It thus became an In completed pass and was put In play at the spot of the down. By the head work Coyle gained ten yards for his team, because he waa etandlng ten yards behind the scrimmage line at the time and would likely have been downed where he stood. . Thla same play Is always open to the man making forward passes. Gen erally when he finds himself surround ed and none of his players In the open ready to receive a heave, the play la an excellent one. Coach Dolan. of the Oregon Agricul tural College equal, waa one of the first to discover thla new field for the "Inside" endeavor. He carries the tieadwork even farther, coaching his men In the oackfteld on defense not to try to catch a forward pass on a third down unless In the open and In a poeltlon to run It a few yarda down the field. -Knock It down to the ground." eaye the astute Notre Dame star. "The rules say that on an Incompleted for ward pas on the third down the ball should go to the opposition at the spot ef the preceding down. If a deflnslve man Intercepted a pass IS yarda on the defensive tide of the scrimmage line In most rases he would be downed before ho passed the line, so by knocking It to the ground he gains that much ground." see Captain Main, of the Oregon Uni versity eleven, gave an exhibition of quick thinking in the memorable (-0 game at Pullman Friday that might have won the rame for his team. Main was out on right end to receive a for ward pass, hut the pass was short. The Stocky halfback dove back after the ball, turning hla back on the field Judge and referee, and nipped the oval Just aa It touched the ground. Main admitted afterwards that the ball hit terra flrma first, but for few moments the officials found them selves In a quandary. If the ball hit the ground before It hit Main it must go to the opponents, because the play waa made on third down, field Judge Bentley finally ruled against Oregon, but through no fault of the llghtnlng wltted Santa Barbara "Heston." The use of the unexpected play la the quintessence of "Inside" play, and this Is one of the reasons for the re markable success of Coach Doble. of the University of Washington. On every third or fourth formation thla "5-ear Tohle has Halfback Wand drop back aa the ball Is snapped and wave his arms In the air aa If to receive the .ball preparatory to a forward pass. The opposition s defense finds itself In a pickle. If the defensive backa and enda come In Wand may ahoot a pass over their heads. If not. a runner may hoot off tackle for a aeven or eight yard gain. Ixible bldea the ball very well among hla back field men. and Portland residents are to be treated to something rare when Oregon and Wash ington clash for the championship on Multnomah Field November IS. Rourke. an ex-Minnesota lineman. Is the latest addition to the ranks of the Multnomah Club eleven. Rourke prob ably will take the tackle position left Vacant by the death of Ralph Dlmlck. At first It waa planned to shift Means from guard to tackle, but aa Rourke la a heavier man be may be stationed at this Important position. - Next Saturday the Vancouver sol ders will be the opponenta for the "Winged M" squad on Multnomah Field. The soldiers held Willamette Univer sity to an 11-i score last Friday. The following Saturday. November 11. a Navy eleven from Bremerton, will ap pear In Portland. The Navy men. who are for the most part from the training hip Philadelphia, are being coached fey John Hancock, a former Annapolis tar. who Is now a paymaater In the Naval service, I have a good bunch gathered to gether and should give Multnomah a good battle." writes Coach Hancock. "We meet Puget Sound University at Tacoma next Saturday and expect to win." ' . M. Austin, of Woodburn. asks: "On the third down a team attempts a for ward pass. B team man Interferea with A team man trying to receive pass. B team man then touchea ball first and recovers it after It has touched the ground and runs for touchdown. la It a. score? Referee calls It Interference nd penalties B team IS yarda and gives ball to A team for Drat down." if B man interfered with A man In the Judgment of the umpire or field Judge, who have Jurisdiction, referee tnust penalise, but not 1& yards. The penalty for Interference by the side which did not put the ball In play la Id yarda from the spot of the down and first down to ensue.

Today there are but four men who are even la the champion's class among the older heads Zhyszko. Leon. Ordemann and Mahmout.

Mah mout welgha 210 pounda and la re garded as the peer of Zbysxko. In Portland he meets Jim Asbell, the well-known Kansas mat wonder, who appeared here with the Jeffries troupe It months ago.

"After winning that handicap I waa matched with Gotch to a finish bout." says Asbell. "Gotch beat roe after a hard tusslew but I waa nominally an amateur then, the amateur champion of Kansas and Missouri, and have learned a lot about catch-as-catch can In the Interim."

BT W. J. FETRAIX. Portland is to have quite an exten sive colony of baseball notables spend ing part of the Winter months in this city and vicinity. Most of them have either invested in Oregon realty al ready or are planning to do ao. Harry Stelnfeldt, the former star third baseman of the Chicago Cubs, arrived in Portland last night for a stay of aeveral weeks. He is the guest of John W, Pearson, 807 Vancouver avenue. The ex-Cub is touring the West looking for a chance to invest. The fact that his former teammate, Joe Tinker, and his old colleague In Chi cago baseball circles. Fielder Jones, are situated In Portland, as well as the many glowing accounts of this city and. vicinity furnished him by bis boy hood chum. Pearson, caused him to come to Portland ft rat. Stelnfeldt is accompanied by his wife. What little they aaw of Port land last night impressed them favor ably. As Joe Tinker will be in Port land about November 15, according to a postal received from him by the writer yesterday, it is likely that Stelnfeldt will remain here until that date, whereupon Tinker. Stelnfeldt and Jones will hold a reunion and discuss old times in Chicago. Cy Young is in Eastern Oregon, vis iting his brother at Elgin, and Vean Oregg will be in Portland tomorrow to meet Buddy Ryan, BUI Rodgers and Harry Abies, with whom he Intends to spend a month hunting and fishing in Southern Oregon, which will make Portland's colony of well-known ex ponents of the National game a most representative gathering. In addition to those mentioned above, Billy Sullivan, the celebrated catcher of the White Sox; Jack Bliss, catcher of the PL Louis Nationals; Del Howard, ex-manager of the Louisville American Association team and one time White Sox; Clark Griffith, man ager of the Cincinnati Nationals, and Jack Sheridan, the veteran umpire, are either on their way to Portland, or are planning to visit this city in the near future. Fielder Jones, the man who haa done much toward interesting the big leaguers In Portland and Oregon, is planning the erection of a handsome residence for himself and family on the East Side. Cy Toung announces that he will make Oregon his home when he retires from baseball. The veteran pitcher says that he expects to stick in the big leagues for at least two more years, and at the end of that period he will come West and settle down to ranch life. Jimmy Toman, the clever little um pire who officiated so satisfactorily in the last few weeks of the Paclflo Coast League race, has signed to han dle the Indicator In the Northwestern League next season. Toman should have been signed by the Pacific Coast League, for he is a first-class umpire, but the absence of a chief executive in this league, due to the resignation of Judge Graham, caused the umpire to sign up with the Northwestern League as soon as he received a satisfactory offer from D. E. Pugdale, who is act ing as president of that circuit. Members of the Portland Beaver who are to Winter in Portland will arrive here this afternoon. The party comprises Bill Rappa, Buddy Ryan, Artie Krueger, Bill Rodgers, Elmer Koeatner, "Speck" Harkness and Jack Barry. Krueger will remain In Port land only a few days, going to Walla Walla, where he is to be the guest of hla brother-in-law for several weeks. "Big Six" Steen. one of the most re liable twlrlera who ever wore a Port land uniform, will remain In Portland until he receives notice to report to the Cleveland Americana next Spring. Steen has a lucrative position hero, and Is one of the most enthuslastlo admirers of Portland among the ball playing fraternity. He announces that he Intends to spend next Winter in Portland as well, for he is planning making several Investments in this vi cinity with a view of preparing to settle down here when he retires from baseball. e Harry Abies, the big Oakland south paw, who is coming north with Buddy Ryan and other Beavers, is an en thusiastic hunter. He has heard so much of the game in Oregon that he begged to be allowed to make the trip with Ryan. Gregg and Rodgers. and they readily consented, according to the San Francisco papers. Abies would also be delighted to be come a Beaver next season, but this is out of the question, for the Oakland fandom would never forgive the man agement of that club for parting with this favorite twirler if he Is returned to that team by the New Tork Amer icana next Spring.

AMATEUR ATHLETICS ASHWORTH, one of the strongest aspirants for center on Coach Smith's Jefferson team, probably will not play any more this season on ac count of a broken noBe received In the game with Albany High School Sat urday. Ashworth haa been playing a hard and fast game and hla absence will be missed. Johnston is the candi date that Coach Smith probably will work into Aahworth's place In the game with Lincoln Friday.

Lincoln High School second and Jef ferson High School second will play a preliminary game on Jefferson field Wednesday.

He understands the modified game of foothall end ought to be a good man to lead the team that has chosen him to be the leader. Maglus will begin his team practicing this week, being delayed at present by the inability to secure a field, as the Jef ferson field, although two blocks long, will hardly accommodate two teams, especially a soccer team, which needs all the field it can get.

This new Winchester is a wild-fowl gun par excellence. The recoil developed by the discharge of the gun cocks the hammer, ejects the fired shell, feeds a loaded shell from the magazine into the chamber and leaves the gun ready to be shot again. As the trigger must be pulled for each shot fired, the gun is at all times as completely under the control of the user as any double or single barreled gun. For strength and safety it Is unapproached by any similar gun. It is made of Nickel steel throughout, and the receiver has the Winchester patented "Bump of Strength," which makes it strongest at the point where the greatest strain comes. As the recoil is divided in this gun, the "kick" of heavy loads is minimized, which makes it wonderfully pleasant to shoot. The Winchester Self-Loader is not one of those recoil-operated shotguns which have to be adjusted for different loads. It is a gun that requires no favoring or tinkering. It will shoot any standard load, from a "blank" to the heaviest, without the slightest change being made in the mechanism. It is always ready for any load, be it light or heavy. It is a hammerless, two-part take-down, without any moving parts outside qf the receiver to catch in the clothing or injure the hands, and in every detail it is fully up to the established high Winchester standard.
