Htutim -
By Clark Rhaughneasy
(Head Football Coach, Loyola of tihe
South)
NEW ORLEANS (AP) Loyola of
the South beat Its two most formid
able foes of 1930 Iowa State and De
troit university with a forward pass
play that la as effective as it is spec
tacular.
The play Is one that the Wolves of
Loyola have used to exceedingly good
advantage many times during the
past four seasons. Yet it caught both
Iowa State and Detroit flatfooted on
successive Saturdays.
Last November, Iowa States backs,
Tegland and Trauger and Impson
ploughed a steady path through the
Wolves to gain a 7-0 lead.
Loyola was considerably outweigh
ed and the Wolves were making little
headway with their fast' runlng at
tack. . .
Suddenly In mldfleld, Joe Tetlow
started on a wide left end run. He
had gone about ten yarda toward the
left side when - he stopped dead,
wheeled, and shot a 39-yard pass to
Mickey Moore, Loyola's quarterback,
on right sideline.
Tetlow'e run, exactly similar to
several previous attempts to circle
that end, had drawn the Iowa state
secondary with him. Moore was left
with a wide open scamper to ths goal
for a touchdown that so bewildered
Iowa State that they never fully re
covered and were beaten 14-7.
Against Detroit, a stronger team.
the same play brought Loyola victory
although this time the actors' were
Sam Zclden, as the passer, and Clar
ence Smith, the receiver of a SB yard
heave.
Here follows one way the play la
worked:
With the line and backfleld unbal
ance to the right, the ball Is snapped
to a back who necessarily la fast and
a good passer, directly behind center.
The back starts to the right as
tho on an orthodox end run, several
of whloh had been tried previously.
One back . charges straight. . through
ths line, with his hands In the air
and calling loudly for a pass.
As the ball Is snapped, the offen
sive left end starts to count slowly
to three, his delay throwing the de
fenatve right halfback off guard, who
runs over to cover the back shouting
for a pass.
The back with the ball runs close
to five yards to the right, and then
fades back to heave a pass. Ho is
covered by one back, while the fourth
member of the backfleld dashes thru
the line toward the right to decoy
the defensive left halfback out of
position.
The offensive right end, who has
been playing about ten yards out.
dashes down the field, pulling the
safety man over to covers
After fading to the rear, the back
with the ball heaves a long pass to
the offensive left, end who is pro
gressing down the field unnoticed
after his three-count delay.
The real secret of the play's success
Is this dslay which causes the defen
sive backs to take their attention
from the ultimate receiver.
However, If the defense does cover
this man the play has an excellent
chance of aucceas aa an end run, or
a pass can- be made to any of the
other eligible receivers who might
be open

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 14. (AP) John
Pepper" Martin, breezy unassuming
hero of the 1931 world series, nurses
one gnawing regret. He waa born too
late In life to hunt buffalo on the
sweeping plains of his native Okla
homa.
Hunting, even more than baseball
is Pepper's grand passion. An Iron
muscled youth, thick-legged, bulky,
the good natured wild wahoo spends
all his spare time roaming the Okla
homa wilds In search of deer. He
thinks hunting buffalo must have
been the greatest sport there ever
Pepper likes to drive a car fast, no
where In particular. Just around.
Movies and shows do not Interest
him. He haa a radio but he doesnt
turn It on much.
"They don't have them old f Iddlere
playing violins often enough," he
says.
The greatest honor that ever came
to him, so hs believes, was the award
of the "most valuable" player trophy
In the Texas league when he was
with Houston. They gave him
brand new automobile. He waa able
to give that one to his wife and keep
the old one for lilnuelf for hunting
trips.
He's a bright young fellow, eager.
enthusiastic willing, the perfect ball
player from a manager's viewpoint,
the perfect pal as far as the players
ara concerned. They don't even mind
the shotguns that are always falling
out of his locker In the dressing room
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 14 (API-
Three days after he had won his sec
ond pennant in the five years he
msnaged the San Francisco Seals of
the Paclflo Coast baseball league, R.
L. 'Nick" Williams waa out of a Job.
George Putnam, secretary of the
club, announced yesterday that Wil
liams had resigned, but Williams con'
tends he was discharged.
'They called me to the ball park,'
Williams said, "and told me I was
through. They handed me a pre
pared resignation statement to pass
around, but I refused to sign It and
tore It up. When I asked them why,
they said they didn't like my personal
habits."
Williams had been with the Seals
for It years as scout and manager.
He won league penusnta In 1938 and
mat.
NEW YORK, Oct. 14. (AP) The
open season on major league man
age! already has netted two victims
and the baseball world wilt be mildly
astonished tf one or two more do
not fall before the accurate fire of
harp-shooting magnates.
Dome Bush, a fiery veteran, has
been cut loose from the Chicago

uopestera look for the next man
agerial ah If te to come from Detroit
and possibly Brooklyn. And there
seem to be sound grounds for the
suspicion that a change may be made
In one camp or the other, It not In
both.

between hunting trips or the guns
he's always lugging out to the park
to show them.
There's something fascinating In
the absolute lack of pretense In the
young man, his anxiety to oblige, his
fear of nothing. He will talk with
anyone, sign scoreboards aud bose
balls by the hour, stand In hotel lob
bles and earnestly play over the
games of the world serlee with utter
strangers.
He's Scotch-American in descent
but he refuses to admit the Scotch
part.
"It'a all American," he says.
The Athletics think there's some
wild horse In him somewhere.
He's been married since 193S to
pretty little girl who went to gram'
mar school with him out In Okla
homa. She Isn't a bit surprised that
the basebnlt world has finally recog
nized him as a hero. He was all that
he Is today to her when be was play.

ELKS' RING CARD
FULL OF ACTION
Every mitt sllnger on the Elki club
card Thursday evening .has been spe
cially picked by Matchmaker Herb
Owen tor ability and willingness to
give the fans a run for their money,
according to P. C. filgham, chairman
of the lodge committee staging the
show,
"The two lads in the main event,
Bobby Ambrose and Young Doc
Snell," says Blgham, "should put on
one of the hottest six rounds seen In
Medford In years. They are touted
as hard hitters and willing mixers
and both come out fighting at the
gong."
The eeml-wlndup six-round event
between Ray Morgan, 147-pounder
from Portland, and Jerry O'Nell, 147
pounds, of Eugene, Is also boomed by
Blgham as a crowd pleaser. Morgan
has shown bis wares In Portland and
Is a rushing, slugging type of battler.
O'Nell Is known as the "iron man"
of the Willamette valley, with abUlty
to assimilate punishment and heave
over a haymaker when an opening
ahows.
A four-round affair will pit Buddy
Ambrose, twin brother of Bobby, and
Louie Nelson, 125, Portland. Nelson
la a tough customer and Buddy
should have his hands full.
Another four-rounder in which
Curly Johnson, Albany, will face Ray
Avery, Eugene, Is calculated to whet
the Elks' appetite for action aa both
boys are fast and clever.
The ring show will open at the
Elks temple after a short meeting set
for S p. m., and eaoh Elk may bring
two guests. v
