Now that the football rulea have been Interpreted, coacnes everywhere are trying to evolve trick and freak playa whereby they hope to enhance the scoring power oi tneir elevens In the big games of the season. As a matter of fact. It was not necessary for them to wan ror the annual interpretation meeting of the solona. Vn drastic changes have been made in the play ing code for the last counla of i. aona. but gridiron mentors like to wait for official defining of the rules before going to work on plays which are out of the ordinary. Just what may be expected this season in the way of unusual plays can only be guessed at present. There may not be any radical departures from the stereotyped style of straight football, which seems to be gaining favor with most of the coaches throughout the country. However, it would not be at all surprising If some college or university eleven waded through with some distinctly novel metnoa or advancing the ball. Fos ter banrord. coach at Rutgers, and Glenn Warner, at Pittsburg, those two exceedingly versatile strategists, can De relied UDon to contribute something out of the ordinary in this respect. Scarcely a season passes mat one or these two tacticians does not electrify the football universe by springing something radically differ ent from anything ever before at tempted on a gridiron. With the rules the same as they have been for the last several years and with so much excellent material scattered liberally throusrh the dif ferent colleges and universities, it is reasonable to assume that the coaches will attempt to Increase the versa til Ity of attacks with some new plays. camouflage, of course, can be looked ror in ail departments of play. laterfereaee Rulea Changed. Since the rules no lons-er permit the Interference to advance before a runner, the work of protecting the man with the ball has to be done from tne siae or rear once the runner passes the rush line. Because of this, the backs, other than the man with the ball, can be employed as decoys to draw the attention of the opposing aeiense. The delayed pass plays a prominent part In this system of at tack, and. for that reason, it is more or less of a risky manner in which to try to advance the ball. If the op posing defense Is on the alert and la quick to diagnose plays, the chances are many that the delayed pass, when once -detected, will result in the at tack being smeared before it is fully under way. and a loss will result. However, some of the elevens are using this style of attack with un warranted regularity. The best re sults are obtained from It when it Is used only occasionally and then sup ported and aided by the element of surprise. Coaches like Gil Doble of the navy. Bill Roper of Princeton, and Dr. Al Sharpe of Yale prefer straight foot bail methods whenever they are able to develop fleet and hard running sets of backs supported by a strong line. n other words, a well-balanced elev en with an able punter and drop kicker can attain the best results with the least risk by sticking to atraight football. Naturally, the successful system which Percy Haughton introduced several years ago of starting most of the running plays from a kick for mation will be prominently in vogue again this season. Haughton per fected this style of attack because he could successfully build it around hat king of kickers, Charley Brlck- ey. With Brlckley In the Crimson lineup it was almost suicidal for an opposing elevent to figure too con fidently that a run Instead of a kick was to be attempted when the Har vard backa spread out In kick forma tion. It afforded a mighty success ful screen for Haughton'a plays, for It compelled Harvard'a adversaries to be prepared for a kick or a run which prevented them from concentrating their defense. Kicker Great Help. For a team that boasts a good kicker, this system can scarcely be improved upon. Because of the un certainty caused by the kick forma tion it adds to the power of a good, strong running attack the use of the forward pass or a kick. It waa ex tremely popular In 1916 when nearly all of the so-called larger elevens used it in starting most of their of fensive plays and was popular with the service teams last season. Of course, the forward pass will have Its place In the repertoire of of fensive plays this year. The pass has been so developed and perfected by coaches in the last few years that it has become a generally accepted and more or less substantial and reliable way of advancing the ball. The de gree of risk attached to it has been minimized to a great extent and, whereas a few years ago the forward pass was resorted to only in the case of an extreme emergency, it has be come a regular part of the attacking programme of all teams. However, the old long pass, hurled with more or less abandon and tossed in a general rather than a definite di rection. has been abandoned, it l seldom employed now and it la prob able that it will be seen but little on the gridirons this fall. It is spectacu lar, but the element of luck enters into It too mucn. Short Pass Effective. The new and shorter pass, thrown directly over the line or at a sharp angle la far more effective. The pass itself seldom exceeds 10 or 15 yards now and consequently the chances that it will succeed are materially in creased. With a capable man to toss the ball and players well schooled and coached in the knack of catching it, while on the run or quickly get ting under way wnen once tne Dau i clutched in their arms, there are few more effective means of gaining. The tendency this year seems to be to make the passes even shorter than thev were three years, ago. The coaches are exerting every effort to lessen still more the chances of fail ure. This can only be accomplished by shortening the passes. They are working on the theory that the shorter the pass Is the greater are the chances of its being successfully completed. Notre Dame was one of the first teams to perfect this short pass. It win De recanea uiit nve or six years ago Notre Dame Invaded West Fo nt and gave tne army an ar tistic trimming, principally because of the efficient forward passing of the westerners. The army adopted the pass that year and Merrillat was made famous by the manner in which be handled the thrown ball in the game against the navy. That year the navy was favored to "win at long odds against the army, but the cadets. via the forward pass, were aDie to score a decisive and wholly unex pected victory. Horjni III It DRAWS Sill CHAMPIONS Norman Ross, Kruger and Two Schroths Leave. VICTORIES ARE REVIEWED WINGED AH TAKES GRILLING CLUB ELEVEN GIVEJi STIFF WORKOUT BY COACH. Multnomah Outfit Reported Sadly in Xeed of Practice Before Game at Spokane. Coach George Philbrook put the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club football squad through the stiffest workout it has yet experienced last night on the winged-M gridiron under the arc lights. The showing of the club men against Oregon has made them realise that if they expect to do any thing this year they must get into real condition. They will stack up against a tough game with Washing ton State college Saturday at Spo kane in the opinion of many. A former University of Michigan backfield man named Claeys turned out in a suit last night and showed up well. The backfield Is proving the same worry as it did last year and will have to be bolstered. The line is there, but is due to show some better playing than it did against Oregon according to reports, if they expect to do anything with w. s. (J. Roily Jones and Bill Dressier, both of whom were laid out in the game against the U. of O. last Saturday, likely will not be able to start in the next game. Jones was pretty badly messed up. while Dressier suffered an injury to one or his legs. An effort is being made to get Jake Risley, former University of Oregon and United States Marines all-star center, to turn out for the winged-M eleven. Jake is In the automobile ac cessory business In Oregon City and may don a "unl." The football team of the U. S. S. Wyoming, which is now at Bremerton, Wash., is eager to land a game -with Multnomah club and have written to Coach Philbrook for a date. As the club has two Saturdays open, the sail ors may be taken on. Long-Distance Champ Has Busy Week Visiting Stanford and Exhibiting- for ex-Classmates. BY HARRY EDDAS. Off for Honolulu. Norman Ross, Stubby Kruger, Frances Cowella Schroth and George Scroth sailed on the steamer Lurllne from San Fran cisco at noon yesterday. Before go ing over "Stubby" and "Chappie' Cowelis each annexed a new title. Schroth easily won the 100-yard national championship in 1:17 -2-5 clipping two-fifths second off of the Pacific coast record for that distance. It was rather disappointing to the contestants that none of the eastern mermaids showed up as bad been ex pected. Stubby" Kruger won the Pacific coast outdoor two-mile swim in 49 minutes 28 4-5 seconds. This is faster time than was made in the national one-mile here in August, when Wal len won in 25 minutes 37 3-5 seconds. Kruger making it in 25 minutes 38 5 seconds. The start of the race found the tide high, favoring the swimmers and changing to slack water 35 minutes later, thus giving the swimmers normal water. The swimmers were again aided at the finish, for the tide was ebbing. Ross put in a very busy week since winning the 500 at Neptune beach Sunday a week ago. He has since traveled to Los Angeles, where ha raced and exhibited at the Los Ange les Athletic club.

OREGON TO PLAY IDAHO COXFEKEXCE SEASOX OPENS AT MOSCOW NEXT SATURDAY. The call for candidates for the swimming team at Stanford univer sity was answered by more than 250 students on Monday. An inter-class meet was held In connection with the exhibition of Norman Ross. Among those out for the team Is Brownie Webster. Multnomah club swimme and diver. Webster is almost sure of a place and will be lined up with the ivers and breast stroke stars. Brownie made a good showing last year on the freshman team. The team this year will travel to Los Angele to meet the Los Angeles Athletic club team. Water polo Is holding a good deal of interest just now at the col lege, with practice twice a week and hree days given over to swimming. This schedule brings the swimming team out five days a week. a a a Is the Duke Kahanamoku in San Francisco? This is causing a good deal of talk in the bay city. At pres nt a mysterious rowing crew is in San Francisco en route to New York to compete this month in an all-star regatta. The information that the uke was in 'Frisco, parading under the name of Mokihanu, was given out by J. Warde, one of the champion scullers of Honolulu. The water polo team of the Victoria Island Athletic club will journey to San Francisco at the invitation of the Olympic club o stage a water polo meet with the southern club. It was planned for the Olympics to come north, but this was found impossible, resulting in the change, and so the Victorians will go south next month to stage the International meet. Vic toria has suffered defeat on two dif- fernt occasions at the hands of Mult man's champion polo players. Team Is Expected to Be Made Stronger With Return of Bill Steers to Quarter. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Oct. 14. (Special) The game be tween the University of Oregon and Multnomah club, which was won by the Oregon eleven by the score of 23 to 0, gave the followers of the varsity their first ch-.nce to see 'their team in action. The game showed that a great deal of improvement must be forthcoming before the lemon-yellow aggregation starts the conference season next Saturday at Moscow, where they are slated to tangle with the University of Idaho. The teamwork of the varsity was somewhat ragged, and while the back- field tore through the lines for. re peated gains, the interference was not all that could be expected. With Bill Steers back in the lineup when the team goes on th Moscow next Saturday the offensive power of the local team should be greatly increased.
