and should be let alone.
Dartmouth was one of the out-
standing teams of last year. No one
feature of play did more to keep
Dartmouth in the sport headlines
than the uncanny passing of ‘Swede'
Oberlnndel'.
At Stanford we also made much
use of the pass. Coach Glen Warn-
er built‘ up much of his offense
around the play. Conch Warner was
kind ‘enough to think enough of my
hbility in that line to have the hand-

While the fundamentals of correct
passing are much the same. regard-

most. forward passcrs have certain
mannerisms in handling the ball
that are original witluhe individual.
Here are my thoughts on forward
passing: they have served me most
successfully. Possibly they may be

I am strongly of the opinion that
the very best way to throw the pass
is oval-hand, from the shoulder. not
side-arm or underhand.
invariably a player attempting to
block a pool will leap in the air
slightly as he throws his body at
you. His arms are usually stretched
high in ~the air.
Using the overhand pass. you
have a chance to complete thez pass
by throwing it between the up-
stretched arms. I made a number
of such panes last year.
The chances. therefore. to block
n side-grin. or underhand pass are
infinitely greater than one thrown
from the shoulder.
The shorter posses. say from 10 to
in yards. while lacking the thrill of
the lower pass. are far more cer-

Yanks Unusual Club.
The business of baseball exporting
is a most precarious one.
In the spring. the smart men of
baseball figured the Yankees to fin-
isli not better than fifth. The pre-
vious season the New York club Just
managed to escape the cellar.
Then the Yankm went right out
and upset the dope by winning the
American League pennant.
if memory serves. it is the ilrs‘.
time a club has come from seventh
to first place inside of one short
year.
The Yankees are a most unusual
ball club. In various ways through-
out. the past season they constantly
demonstrated the fact.
What about the Yankees of 1927?
Experts Little Impressed.
During the progress of the world
series. despite the fact that the sea-
son had been over only a trifle more
than it week. the 1927 possibilities
in both leagues were freely discuss.
cd.
I wondered if the showing of the
Yankees had caused any of the ex-
perts to change their minds. To sat-
isfy my curiolty I put this question
to 20 of the country's leading writ-
crs on baseball: .
“Do you think the Yankees will
be able to repeat."
Not one of the 20 picked the
Yanks to win in 1927. Five thought
so little of the club the‘predlcted
second-division berths.
It is doubtful if any pennant-win-
ning club ever has impressed the
experts so little as the Yankees.
But. as I have said before. the
Yanks are an unusual club and it
is just'possibie they will continue
next year where they left off in Sep-
toiraber. and once again malts tho
wl men of baseball leek rather
foolish.

was one of the smartest ball players
I ever saw.
On the bases he seemed to be able
to sense the proper time to taken
some daring chance. in the ileld he
rarely threw the ball to the wrong
