"Interference and Other Football Stories" by Harold M. Sherman is a collection of short stories written in the early 20th century. The book primarily revolves around the dynamics of college football, exploring themes of competition, rivalry, personal growth, and the relationships among players and coaches. The main character introduced in the opening story is Mack Carver, a substitute back at Grinnell University, who grapples with feelings of inadequacy and the pressures stemming from a family rivalry, as his brother is the coach of a rival team. The opening of the book sets the stage for the conflict between Mack Carver and Coach Edward, as Mack confronts the coach about his limited playtime on the team. Mack believes that his placement on the bench is connected to his brother’s coaching position at rival Pomeroy. Following a heated exchange, he finds himself unwittingly involved in a sensitive situation when the team’s plays are stolen, leading to suspicions that further complicate his already strained relationship with Coach Edward. As the story unfolds, Mack’s internal struggles and the external pressures he faces hint at the greater narrative of loyalty and personal ambition within the framework of college football.
