TOO modi has already been writ- 1 ten about the "T." And yet it ia aurprisinf the number of sidliners who keep writinc in to ask just what the "T" is and how it works. We'U try, with no promise of success, to make it simple--for the last time. 1. The T' doesn't Iwiai Martrhi er hard pressure. 1ft I. It-needs a hatd hltttai taBhaek whe eaa split aa opened line. S. 1ft iaeeds a taiH Bwh| back eaa circle a 4. 1ft demands a geed passer who can work with deception and smooth baU-handllaif. These latter three qualities put heavy pressure on any defense. The greatest pro "T" I ever saw operate was the old Bear brigade with Luckman, Standlee, Gat lernau and McAfee, if my memory isn't too fuzzy. They hit you every known way. The greatest college "T" I ever saw at work was Notre Dame's 1943 outfit w i t h B e r t e l l i , Creighton Miller, Kelly and two or three good fullbacks. They fell far away when Bertelli left, who was not only a great passer but the smoothest and trickiest ball-handler I've seen around. Ask Rip Miller, by EARL R.

It wasn't bad--18 to 6. 558 in Uncle Ed" river, keeps Football coaches have done great jobs. Their general average is the highest in sport. But the best still need' good football players to have winning teams. After all, they can't rush out on the field arid do their own passing, running, blocking and tackling. • • • Sports Fans* Squawks Sports fans who move up into the 50 or 60-million class, ranging from ages between 10 and 80 years, are 'certainly entitled to their beliefs, their squawks, theif .praise and their blame. "V For, after all, they'are the big of sport, the major part by at least 90 per cent. Ttiey pay all the expenses, all the salaries. They make both amateur and pro sports possible. And in too many cases they only get shoddy treatment and take the big shove around by both amateur and professional promoters. They are taken for granted. They are rarely given any consideration from baseball, football, racing, boxing, golf or other sporting directors. They are usually the goats, who have grewa aacustoatsd to taking the iperst of 1ft. Their hardihood and their eapaalfty 1st puBtahmeat Is the most amastag feature of spoti. They are too often packed in after the manner of human sardines at race tracks and other sporting centers. „ They are too often overcharged. It haa been said there is no law that forces them to take this beating. This is true. But they happen to love their games, whether it is boxing, baseball, football, racing, golf or something else. They are astonished aft Uttie courtesies they are so seldom shsua anywhere er any time by the hired people whe live off their main outlet far recreation and entertainment. They are really an amazing breed. They take it on the chin and on the shin, back of each ear, in the stomach and also in the pocketbook. Courses Too Tough Take golf, for example. It has always been my belief that any golf course should be trapped only for the star player. Put all trouble out beyond the 200 yard mark which the average player can't reach. The duffer or average player has enough trouble trying to hit t^e ball or get his bogeys. Why should he pay uncounted millions to make his - golfing life more miserable? We have built too many golf courses against the skill of the pros - and the Crack amateurs who, aft- , er all, give most of their life to golf --and who pay nothing in return. Whe cares whether a pre sheets a 83 or a 58T Why huild seurses to kiep him from breaking par on eearsea which the average golfer ean*t handle hi a M? The Nelsons and the other parbreaking stars are a breed apart. Let . them go around in even 3's. Who cares? But why heep punishing the 98 per cent whp JWF aUjhe freight? Golf is our grWMM~f|uring game for everyone. It is a fiuHMDy and a companionable flame, demanding its share of ^ psychology, philosophy, ll'i^uf^yncal akill. But it wasn't the way the boys wanted the score to read.
