By CHARLES E. DORAIS
(Head Football Coach, University of
Detroit)
DETROIT ( AP ) As in most sys
tems, the off-tackle shot Is my baste
play. It Is and always has been one
of our strongest plays.
Against a normal defense, the play,
with conditions equal, is consistently
successful.
When the opponents maneuver to
stop It, avenues are opened for other
plays which are built to look like it,
but end differently.
Some off-tackle plays depend for
their success on power and others
on deception. Mine has a judicious
mixture of each and for that reason
suits me best.
Power Is there because we can throw
In the half, the full, the quarter and
the guard ahead of the runner to
pave the way. Deception la added
principally by the ball-carrier's threat,
enlng to attack a different spot from
the one he does eventually attack,
thus maneuvering the end Into posi
tion to be handled more easily by our
blocker.
Robert "Rocky" Parsaca, left half
back, carries tho ball In this basic
play, while John Hackett, end and
captain of the team, Is the "key"
man. He takes out the opposing
taokle to wreck the defense of the
line. If he falls, the chances are
the whole play will fall.
Parsaca Is a good broken field run
ner. He has short strides but covers
the ground fast. Hackett Is a strong
man on defense, a good tackier and
a good charger. His part In the off
tackle play la Just as Important
if not more so as the ball carrier,
If he falls, the ball carrier will
not reach the scrimmage line.
Thle is the last year at the Uni
versity of Detroit for both players,
and new men for the play must be
trained for next season.
Because Parsaca and Hackett have
had two years' experience with the
play, they should be at their peak
this year, and the play should reach
Its maximum efficiency.
There Is nothing unusual or spec
tacular about this play. It la one
of the oldest In football. Its effec
tiveness depends altogether on the
precision and speed with which it
la carried out.
Every team la drilled for offense
against an off-tackle threat, but If
executed fast and accurately there Is
little In the way of defense to stop
It. .
The play doeent have' to go the
same way each time. If the ball car
rier sees the defense massed on one
side, he can cut through another sec
tor. For this reason, Parsaca haa
made a good ball carrier In the off
tackle play. He Is A good side-stepper
and haa a frequent change of pace.
The University of Detroit football
team went through the season of
:P28 undefeated, and this baslo play,
effectively worked under the leader
ship of Lloyd Braall, was greatly re
sponsible. Starting October i5, 1937, -the team
won US straight games In three sea
sons before meeting defeat late In
1930 at the hands of the Oregon
Aggies. Brasll, who was the key man
during that time, now Is coaching the
brickfield at the University of De
troit. 1

Charles R. "Gus" Dorals, Detroit University coach, and Robert "Rocky"
Pnriaon, left halfback, are shown above. Sketch shows In detail off-tackle
play which Is basic in the Detroit system. Ilirtaca's number Is called most

BY ALAN GOULD
Is John Leonard (Pepper) Martin
the second Ty Cobb that we have
been looking for all these years? Is
ne tne Dan player destined to fur
nlsh the popular, personal appeal that
haa so long been dominated by Babe
Kucnr
Is he the real goods, In other words.
or Just an Inspired youngster who
happened to start the world's aeries
at top speed and keep It up?
I heard these questions debated
all the way from St. Louis to Phila
delphia, and back again, by some
of baseball's oldest and beat known
observers. No doubt It was the talk
of the oroas-roads as well as Broad
way while the big battle was on be
tween the Cardinals and the Ath
letics.
Men who have seen every lnter-
league war since 1903 never saw the
world's series equal of Martin. Babe
Ruth haa gone on a greater long
distance hitting rampage than any
one else. From Mathewson to Earn-
shaw, pitchers have held the epot-
ligni.
Publlo Enemy
For one, two and even three games.
stars have shone, but none ever sus
tained the paoe of Martin at bat or on
the bases. It was no wonder they
labelled him "Publlo Enemy No. 1"
in Philadelphia, though they cheered
the youngster vociferously there aa
well aa In St. Louis.
"Martin's exploits are the closest
I have ever seen to those of Ty Cabb,
at the Georgian's best, hut Ty new
was the world's series terror that
Martin has been," commented Wll-
llun Harrldge, new president of the
American league, during a breakfast
chat.
'Cobb could demoralise a team
completely on the bases, but I do
not recall that he ever did anything
to surpass Martin's achievements In
a single series, especially with ' so
muon at stake."
There waa nothing etpeclal In Mar
tin's first year record with the Cards
to forecast hla sensational outburst.
He hit around .390 In the Internat
ional league with Rochester In 1030,
but batted only .398 and stole 17
bases this year. It was good work
for a newcomer, but that was about
all.
When the boys were discussing
Cardinal youngsters for the series they
talked mostly of the chances of Paul
Derringer, the freshman pitcher, be
coming the big hero.
Martin may have been playing "over
his head." No player could sustain
so terrific a pace during the season,
but baseball men, after looking him
over, are convinced he has the stuff
to go on to real stardom.
"Martin has found himself under
the glare of the most piercing spot
light In the business," remarked an
old-timer. "Apparently he's the type
requiring a big obectlve to bring blm
out. If so, he Is bound to be tough
to atop.
"Don't forget, either, that although
a first year major leaguer, he Is 37
years old and experienced enough to
keep a level head under all the praise
and banqueting that an going to
come nia way."
LOCAL GRAPPLERS
FACE TOUGH FOES
Y
For his card at the Armory next
Monday night. Promoter Herb Owen
has prepared a double main event.
with Dr. Milllkan, a chiropractor op.
posing Henry Ossane, a Sikh of
India, who has Just returned from
a tour of Australia and Hawaii.
In the first part of the bill Ray
Friable of Medford will tangle with
Hank Cswold of Seattle. Oswold
weights 220 pounds and recently
held Bob Kruae from Jumping out
of a Vancouver, B. C ring, and got
a draw decision. Friable now weighs
169 pounds and will have to hustle
to beat the Seattle grappler.
Ossane the Hindu, is a tricky
wrestler, fast and heavy. Dr. Milll
kan recently did his stuff In Port
land, and slapped all kinds of chiro
practic holds on his foe. Both are
heavyweights and the kind that give
fans the thrills they like. Wherever
Dr. Milllkan has appeared on the
Pacific coast he has drawn big
houses and la known aa a crowd
pleaser.
The coming bill la the aecond of
the season, and the first one was
pronounced by wrestling fans one of
the best ever given here. Promoter
Owen, If the sentiment warrants,
would like to bring Joe Savoldl here
to wrestle either Milllkan or Os
sane. Savoldl la the former star
fullback of Notre Dame, now wrestl
ing In San Francisco, and Is willing
to appear here.

Foultrymen striving to bring up
their egg production will be Interest
ed In the display of Mountcrest
Hollywood White Leghorns In the
Monarch Seed Feed Co.'s retail
store window. Reginald H. Parsons,
owner of HUlcrest Orchard, east of
the city, and Mountcrest Ranch at
Hilt. California has spent years In
building up a flock of White Leg
horns, which at the present ttmo is
the talk of the coast and a credit
to southern Oregon and northern
California.
Starting with the Hollywood strain
of white leghorns Mr. Parsons laid
the foundation for the present flock
of heavy producers. In 1928 Mount
crest sent six of their Hollywood
cockerels back to Ashton'a breeding
farm at Leicestershire, England
which were mated to the winning
pen owned by Mr. Ashton at the
Harper-Adams laying contest.
The following year an exchange of
cockerels was effected from that
mating. These English raised birds
were then mated back to Mountcrest
Hollywood birds, from which was
built the present flock of 2400 layera.
Mountcreat's poultry plant la one
of the finest on the coast. It Is mod
ern in every respect. Buildings be
ing of latest design, built to require
a minimum of labor and to safe
guard the health of the pullets and
layers. Trapnestlng is religiously fol
lowed. Records have been kept and
are available from the very beginning
of their operations.
Mountcrest eggs are In great de
mand all over California for hatching
purposes by reason of the auperlorlty
of the birds, both aa to capacity for
production and general build and
health, Mountcrest can boast "the
model poultry farm of northern Cali
fornia." Mr. Parson's ranch Is situated
about two miles west of Hilt where
he also raises and rears hi prlee
wlnnlng Harefords.
Thru careful selection and mating
and the keeping of records so aa to
weed otit the low producers and pre
serve the high producers for breeding
purposes Mountcrest ' has gradually
reached the peak of production per
fection as Is Indicated by the follow
