...confusing to his men, he began his regime by declaring that he alone should direct the coaching of his men. He determined that henceforth his eleven should have consistent coaching directed toward pre-determined objects. It is obvious, he stated, that if the ends are coached after a certain method, the tackle play also must be developed along the same lines so that the team play of tackles and ends may dovetail, and not go awry due to conflicts in coaching. Although he has assistants of course, he is resolved to be the sole one responsible for the success...

He was also the author of many scientific papers dealing with business statistics in a new manner...
...next play, aided by the perfect interference of Lockwood and Clark, made the second touchdown. That Coach Fisher was dissatisfied with the way that his team has been using the forward pass this season was shown by the fact that he kept his men continually trying this method of attack which resulted in the third tally. In the last few minutes of play, Wharton made a wonderful catch of a pass from Hamilton and scampered 10 yards across the goal line...
