Chick Meehan's inside tips on Watching Football
At the game, Camels ease the strain--and after it's over, when you feel "all in," get a lift with a
Camel!
Mr. Meehan, my sister Betty wants some inside dope on football! Sure! Come up in the stands and
we'll watch this practice game! What a perfect pass those two men made! It took eleven men to make
that pass perfect! What actually happened. The forward pass-----LE runs straight, swerves to
right-LT blocks guard--LG blocks tackles--C blocks c--RG blocks tackle--RT blocks guard--RE runs
down field, swerves to right--RH fakes block, swerves to right--FB blocks end--QB blocks for
passer--LH fades back and shoots pass to RE who is sprinting to right. Now watch this punt from the
same formation! I didn't know each man had such a definite job. Betty sees a back get off a 60yd.
Spiral----and This is how it was done---The punt--- LE runs down under ball--LT checks tackle and
then runs down under ball--LG, C, RG, and RT hold line--RE runs down fast under punt--RH blocks,
tackle--FB blocks end--QB blocks tackle or end--giving LH time to punt. Well, Betts, did you learn
something? Did I! I can't wait to see the big game! Remember watch the linemen. Betty learns
these plays and many others. Betty at the big game. A splendid run--but good blocking made it
possible. You're an expert now Thanks to Chick Meehan! That game was a thriller! Have a Camel! I
need one! So many thrills use up a lot of energy! A Camel always renews my flow of energy when I
need it__and they never get on my nerves. Yes, they certainly are mild!
Camels are made from finer, more expensive tobaccos--Turkish and Domestic--Than any other popular
brand. (signed) R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., Winston-Salem, N.C.
