That is what the | coaches tell you. One of the reasons {1s that coaches have not given the |torward pass proper attention. "Coaches take it for granted that | players can throw a football, They | try out the players and select for | their forward passers men that can | throw a ball with speed or men who can throw a ball a long distance, de- pending upon whether they intend using the long or short forward pass on attack, "There is one feature to which the ccaches give scant attention and that is receiving forward passes. Any man who plays football is supposed to be able to cateh a ball. This is far from true, Catching a football is an art in {tself. Few really know it. "During the football season of [1921 we repeatedly saw forward | passes fumbled or grounded that had i perfect direction and should have been completed; the only reason they were not completed was because the intended receiver did not have the | ability to catch the ball. 'We have this year repeatedly seen players, in position to take for- ward passes, miss the pass because they were late in getting their arms into position. Had they been well coached in receiving pesses this would not have happened. "Football players who also play baseball, make the best receivers of forward passes, for the simple reason that they are able to judge a thrown ball and reach for it instinctively. The man not accustomed to catching a ball, or lacking thorough training in the matter, does it clumsily and is tardy in getting the hands and arms into position, which a mam accustom- ed to catching a baseball is not. The receiver, if he also plays baseball, times the 'oncoming ball, is in posi- tion when it arrives -and gathers it in naturally, N.H.L.
