Due to inexperience and injuries, Coach Jones’ Tigers have made the winning column only once in its five starts this season. He is not discouraged by this because he said there had been tremen dous improvement in several of his hopefuls. Quarterback Russell Welch, son of famous Aggie player Barney Welch, has been improving greatly in the ball handling and passing departments recently, according to Jones. In the line, Jones is pleased with the work of Charles Roeber, a senior center. “Roeber is my strength in the middle of the line,” Jones said. Junior limeman, J. W. Parsons, is showing promise in the coaches eyes as he is looking more ag gressive in practice. The Tigers worked out in sweat shirts yesterday and will do so the rest of this week to avoid injuries. “We know that we’ll be out classed but we are going to show them we’ve got a team with lots of fight,” said Jones. i&I’s Javelinas Lead AP’s Small College Football Poll By The Associated Press Author!

THE BATTALION Thursday, October 6, 1961 College Station, Texas Page 5 Pro-Football Terms Sound Strange By HAROLD V. RATLIFF Associated Press Sports Writer Clotheslining, audible, key, split end, tight end, red dog, blitzing, looping, flood pass—those terms come at you these days now that Texas has three professional foot ball clubs, i The fan who has known only high school and college football undoubtedly is puzzled at these designations for what’s going on on the field out there in your television set or in your radio. Some fans make it a point to find out what the terms mean or figure them out from what they see. But some are not situated close enough to the action to go hunting for an explanation or can see exactly what’s happening down there in the fury of play. If Coach Tom Landry of the Dallas Cowboys says he has thrown a flood pass he means that all of the backs except the passer have gone down in one direction to catch the ball. If Coach Hank Stram of the Dal las Texans speaks of the other team blitzing or shooting the gap or red dog it means the linebacker has rushed into the offensive back- field with the purpose of tackling the quarterback before he cap pass. When they talk of the umbrella defense it means a secondary de fense where the four back fan out like an umbrella. Steve Owen, former coach of -the New York Giants, perfected it. Hearing footsteps—that’s what a timid pass receiver hears when he has his back to a defender and is waiting for a pass. Looping—a defensive maneuver in which the entire line moves laterally before charging. It con fuses the blockers in their assign ments. Split end—the receiving end who is always flanked out to a stand-up position. Tight end—the offensive end who always is lined up next to the offensive tackle—he may line up either left or right. Safety valve—a spare receiver, usually the fullback, who blocks for the passer then swings away from the “pocket” for short passes when other receivers are covered. Post pass—flanked receiver goes straight downfield, then cuts at angle over the middle - toward the goal “pests.” Down and out—receiver goes straight down then cuts toward sidelines. turn $ hx)- a month for the entire school year with Sheaffer’s 2 FIRST PRIZES OF MOO A MONTH 25 SECOND PRIZES ^ of a new Philco * transistor radio IT’S EASY TO ENTER-EASY TO WIN!
