Aesop once said. "Football is a
brutal game. but brutcs can't play
it.” Which is a short cut to saying
that a man must have a few brains
to play the game well.

The ideal snap team of mythical
selection would be composed of
South African gorillas for theiiue
and a backfield of Darwin's pet
glboons.

Since this is not a thesis on na-

romething about football. Ththoxt
will deal: for the moat part..\vith the
fine points of guard play.

The \ery first thing that all line-
men should learn is to WATCH
THE BALL. Too much emphasis
can not be given floss simple little
words. especially for the three mid-
dle men. Let them become a prayer.

WISE POLICY

The Nzliional League docs not
name its most valuable played until
the December meeting of 21222. two
major leagues.

This is an excellent idea for two
reasons If the player selected is a
“orld series performer. he knobs
noililng about the honor thrust upon
him until it is all mer. Helms
nothing to worry about.

incidentally nannng the most 22:21
liable player at a time when 122152 —
bull news is score, it usually is 222
December. causes the papers to giw
it a much bigger play than if 21222
selection was announced just ' In»
fore the opening of the world sorios.
