TUESDAY, OCT.27, 1936 THE MICHIGAN DAILY i The PRESS -By GEORGE System's The Same COACH HARRY KIPKE'S rejuven- ated Varsity took a well-earned rest yesterday, but certain prominent sports writers who were surprised at the success of the "Michigan Sys- tem" they had so often criticized could not afford to and hurried to climb back on thetwrong end of the "bandwagon." T1-.t in itself is bad enough, but wh is worse they all hastened to exrlain Michigan's victory with the idea that the Wolverines had dis- carded the "System" Saturday. To those who know and want to believe, the "Michigan System" was what Michigan used in looking good! against Columbia-as Coach Kipke explained yesterday (and the day be- fore to several doubters). First of all the assortment of plays used by the Varsity seemed to some new and unusual to a Michigan team. These were the same plays that have been in the coaches' books through good and bad seasons over a period of years-modernized in part each sea- son, of course. These were the plays that Coach Kipke has insisted his team has had all the time. Any Michigan player of the last decade or more should recognize the play Ced Sweet scored on. The only dif- ference was the huge hole Sweet had before him when the play unfolded. And so it was all along the line. It was heretofore unseen fulfillment of! blocking assignments that made the1 old plays look like new ones-and clever quarterbacking that called them at the right time, something else that has been lacking up to now. They are saying Michigan disre- garded its usual passing attack for running plays--in direct antithesis to the "System." As long as the plays were in the book, why not run while running was good and the passing attack has been unsuccessful all year? Quarterback Barclay called many more running plays because they were gaining ground for once, while the passing attack had not worked as yet. Nothing in the "Sys- tem" against that, is there? Before now passes have won Michigan hon- ors; Saturday it was the running plays that clicked. But both have been in the "System" all along. They are saying Michigan wasn't punting as earl in a series of downs as usually is the case. Why punt be- fore fourth down when you are go- ing places through the line and when your punter has all the time in the world to get his kick off when they are finally needed? "Safety First" is the theory behind punting on third down-and that wasn't needed Sat- urday. If any precaution was need- ed, it was to keep the ball away from Columbia's fast-working offense. Kicking late did that-if kicking on fourth down five times out of nine punts can be called that. He who said Michigan was not punting early missed the boat there.
