HEISMAN TELLS FOOTBALL SOLONS
ABOUT HIS SHIFT PLA YAND LEARNS
IT IS PERFECTLY PROPER THIS YEAR
By ROBERT W. MAXWELL
PporU Editor Krrnlnr. rublle ldxrr
SEFT plays will b popular In football thU year.
Lost nlfht at an interpretation mcetlni held at the
Blltraore In New York. Walter Camp, chairman, and the
board of advisory officials ruled that a player shall not
b considered In motion If he has both feet stationary on
the fround. In other words, they upheld the rule which
vs adopted by the rules committee meeting last winter.
John W. Helsman, coach at the University of Penn
sylvania, was there to learn the meaning of the rule.
II not only did this, but also told the audience what it
was all about, and at the end everybody said he was right.
Last year the Hcisman shift did not work very well
against Pittsburgh. Many offside penalties were given,
and the coach wanted to be sure of his ground before the
reason started this year. He has Installed bis system
of offense at Penn, using the glide instead of the Jump
ahlft.
"There I a difference," paid Hcisman, "between
movement and motion. If a player moves his arm or
turns his head before the ball is put into play, he cannot
be considered offside, although he technically moves. My
team moves before the ball is passed, but I do not think
it is in motion. Anyway, according to the rule both feet
must be on the ground, and this shall be observed."
Helsman then Informed the assembled officials and
coaches that he observed the rules to the letter, had no
desire to put over anything which could not be considered
legal, described what he termed translation from place to
place and at the end won every point.
This means Penn will present a bewildering attack
this fall, many shift plays will be used nnd Helsman has
a good chance to get away with it. However, final Judg
ment has been placed In the hands of the officials, and It
will be up to them to determine whether or not the team
h onslde. If the glide works the way it should, I have
very reason to believe there will be few offside penalties.
FCV.Vi" thing about the shift ruling. Heitman
was worried about tchat tcould done to hit pet
ploy, and then he told the committee tchat to do.
Concerning Shifts and Double Shifts
THIS was the most Important topic discussed at the
meeting. It affects Pennsylvania nnd Dartmouth be
cause those colleges arc strong for shift plays.
The une of the word "hike" and "go" for stnrting
signals also was taken up. Some of the officials believed
this should be construed ns an attempt to draw the op
posing team offside, but Mr. Camp ruled that it was up
to the referee to decide.
"We have a double shift." sdld Mr. Speers, the Dart
mouth coach. "We shift to the right on the word 'go.'
and then on the same word signal Jump to the right. This
is not an attempt to draw anybody offside, but Is used to
complete the formation. If the other team is offside it is
xot our fault."
Hcisman added a few words to the discussion. "I
want to say frankly to you gentlemen," he said, "that In
my shifts I use the word 'hike' as a starting slgnnl. I
don't care if the other team knows it or not, for I make
no effort to deceive them. They can charge as soon as
my team; in fact, that's what I want them to do."
Some teams, however, arc likely to use a false starting
signal when in their own territory and have several yards
to gain on the fourth down In order to get the offside
penalty and first down. This, however, is Illegal, and It
is up to the referee to decide.
The best plan, according to Foster Sanford, Is to keep
your eye on the ball. No matter how many "hikes" or
"goes" are shouted, the play does not start until the ball
to
is passed back by the center. That's the safest way
piay it and a lot of useless arguments will be avoided.
LfOWEVER, there is likely to be some confution
at the start of the teaon in interpreting this
both-fcet-on-thc-ground thing. If the feet arc .a
tionary and the body is moving foncard, the officials
icill have a hard job on their hands.
Illegal Pass i'ow Is Illegal
AT LAST there Is a real ruling on an illegal forward
pass. By that Is meant a pass which Is thrown from
a spot less than live yards from the scrimmage line. For
merly the referee wns not allowed to blow his whistle and
top the play, because the other side could decline the
penalty. An opponent bad a chance to catch the ball
and run with it.
Now the referee can blow his whlstlo and stop the piny
as goon as the ball leaves the passer's hand; providing,
of course, he is less than five yards behind the line of
scrimmage. If an opponent catches the ball and runs
for a touchdown, the run shall not count nnd the ball
comes back. The penalty is the loss of n down unless the
foul is committed on the fourth down. Then tte ball goes
to the other side.
Another forward pass ruling was straightened out.
The last paragraph of Section 1.", Itulo 0, states that "it
may be a touchback if the forward pass be touched by an
ineligible man between the opponent's ten -yard line and
the end line."
If nn ineligible man on the passer's side touches the
ball and it bounces off his hand into the arms of an op
ponent and the opponent makes a long run, the run will
not bo nllowed. A foul is committed ns boon as the In
eligible man touches the ball and the play stops then and
there.
'THIS it a good point to remember. Anyieay, the
referee tcill blow his ichistle as soon as the foul
occurs and declare the ball dead.
Other Points Cleared Up
TF THE ball is kicked over the goal line, and rolls across
J- the sideline extended, it is not considered out of
bounds, but is a free ball. If n member of the kicking
side recovers it, a touchdown is allowed; If one of the
defenders gets it, a touchback will be the result. As soon
as the ball crosses the goal lino It Is a free ball.
The onslde kick' came In for a short discussion. An
onsido man that Is, one of the kicker's side cannot
make a fair catch on an onslde kick. This Is because the
rulo distinctly says that fair catches arc made after an
OPPONENT kicks the ball.
If an onslde man touches the ball in the field of play,
and It rolls over the goal line, only the onsido men and
the kicker may recover It.
Last year In the Penn-Cornell game Heinle Miller
knocked a Cornell man Into the ball, which had rolled
down the field after Penn had punted, and after It had
been touched a Penn man recovered It. The ball was
given to Penn nt the time, but there was a protest.
The play was perfectly legal. Players not in posses
sion of the ball may bump nn opponent Into it, but cannot
use their hands.
'THERE teas another highly important ruling made
before the session adjourned. The referee must
carry a horn this year.

NO PHILADELPHIANS
ON ALL-STAR TEAM

Rico Picks Alexander to Head Pitching Department on
Mythical Team Hornsby Only Gets Utility Job.
Eddie Collins Is Selected for Second Base
tty GRANTLAND RICE
The All-Slar Tick have one CJroh than a down Wcava
WE HAVE discovered once again that jjneknt,l,ed to o another running
an argument is to name an all-star
team.
I.cttorn continue to troop in with
various suggestions, changes, outraged
P'Otcsts and the like proving the fa
natical mind haft1 been well wrought up
throtigh the ncaaon noyr passing on Into
the shadows of another winter league.
By way of a few' final worda that
will close out the debate, our re-edited
and revised pick stands ns follows :
Catchers O'Ncll, Cleveland; Bchalk,
Chicago.
Pitchers Alexander, Chicago;
Grimes, Brooklyn; Shocker, St. Louis;
Bagby, Cleveland; Cooper. PltUburgh.
First base Slsler. St. Louis.
Second base Collins, Chicago.
Shortstop Bancroft, New York.
Third base Weaver. Chicago.
Outfield Speaker. Cleveland ; Ruth,
New York; Young, New York (N. L.).
Utility Hornsby, St. Louis.
In Rebuttal
HERB is a sample of many letters
received :
Dear Sir: I showed your all-star
team to rt blg-lcaguo manager tho other
day. This manager has piloted a woriu
ehampion team nnd is nn ex-cntcher. so
he probably known what he is talking
about. Here Is what he has to say :
"The National has had rome great
outfielders In Burns, Carey. Young and
nmiah. hut never nnv who for all-
round worth could compare to Speaker
and Cobb; nor any second baseman liko
Collins nnd Lnjole (Evcrs was always
a grossly overrated player) ; nor any first
basemen who could equal Chase and
Slsler. At third base it is about GO-DO,
but at short, pitchers and catchers,
especially catchers, the National has
been so far ahead that there can be no
comparison. In fact, neither the old
American Association nor tho American
League has ever had a great catcher.
Bllver Flint, Buck Ewlng (tho great
est catcher who ever wore a tnaskl.Mlko
Kelly, Duke Farrcll, Clements, Kllng.
Archer, Bresnahan, nnd one or two
others who might bo ranked among the
great, were all National Leaguers. In
Lou Crelger, Boston, and Sullivan,
White Sox, tho American had two
cntchcrs who were splendid receivers,
but for the rest punk. So when nice
puts two American League catchers on
his all-star team it is a Joke. At third
Heinle Groh is worth a dozen "tt cavers.
JackRon Is a great batter, but ns n de
fensive player he is cheese. I'll bet
that fifteen out of eighteen blg-lcaguo
managers will ngrce with mo as to tho
following:
"Catcher, Killefcrr pitcher, Alexan
der; first base,' Slsler; second base, Col
lins; third base, Groh; shortstop, Ban
croft; left field, Rousch; center field,
Speaker. , ,.
"Please don't use my name. I don't
wnnt to get In bad with the boys."
This manager nlso suggested that It
would settle a long-mooted question and
add a lot of Interest to the game next
season if the ten leading batsmen in
the American could trade places of
course, for one season only with the
ten leading bntsmen in the National.
Yours very truly, B. L. C.

But to pick Killefcr, who has plated

of a master picker. rlc
