FOOTBALL STARTED
IN CLASS RUSHES
I'AtrrS ON ORIGIN OF
GREAT AMERICAN GAME
Old Rugby Players at Harvard Or
gajilard Flrt Real Tram to Play
In 1871 Game lias Undergone
Many Changes.
Football at American colleges runs
hack beyond the memory of the old-
it living graduate. But the kind of
fnntball that waa played back In the
'40s waa of such a crude character
that It would hardly be recognized
ihn Mwond a-re&t American game
today, aays the St. Louis Post-Dls-pwtch.
In those early days It served
more aa an excuse for a rush between
tvi Honhomorea and the freshmen.
n, football of the early collesre
days gave place to rushes between the
. Glasses, which were practically ui
same as the football game ot that day,
except that the ball was not used.
Those rushes, at first governed by
no laws or rules, took on a form of
organization during tho '60s, but a
ball was kicked about and more or
less amusement derived from It. A
In tho early '70s, however, a num
ber of Rugby boyg at Harvard reviv
ed the game and it was taken up In
earnest and associations organized at
several of the colleges. In 1872 Co
lumbia University rdatyed a mutch
game with Yale. There were 20 men
on a side and the game waa nearer
the English association game than
the English rugby. The costumes
of those dnys were long trousers and
Jerseys. The rules were simple and
forbade anyone picking up, carrying
or throwing the ball There were no
"on" or "off" side rules, and goals
were made by sending tho ball under
the crossbar instead of over It. Fouls
were penalized by making the player
who had committed the foul toss the
ball straight up In the air from the
place where the foul occurred, and
It was unfair to touch the ball until
after it had touched the ground. This
particular rule gave rise later to
good deal of skillful drop-kicking, the
man kicking the ball Just as It
touched the ground, Although the
game was played with 20 men on a
side when a man wag disabled in
stead of sending a substitute a man
was dropped from the other side.
It was not until 1874 that football
began Its present career of Interest in
American colleges. In that yenr foot
ball clubs were formed In many of
the American colleges, each Institu
tion having five or six teams which
played between teams of different col
leges under the American rules and
played on old Forbes Field, at Cam
bridge, Mass., between Harvard and
McGill University of Montreal. Can
ada. This game was played on May
14, 1874, and resulted in a victory for
Harvard by three touchdowns against
McQiU's nothing.
In the same year Harvard played
McGlM three games, winning two and
tying one; Tuft's College won and
lost a game with Harvard; the Uni
versity of Canada rost a game to
Harvard and on November IS Tale
and Harvard played their first game
together, Harvard winning by eight
touchdowns. .
The football referee fh the early
days was a very Important and dig
nlfled person on the field, and always
dressed In a frock coat and silk hat
PRESIDENT OK YAIJ4
FAVORS THE OLD GAME
New Haven. Conn. President Hud
Icy of Tale, upholds football In a
statement published here. He says:
"Football at Tale during the pres
ent season lias worked very well. We
had a number of sprained ankles, but
only two or three cases of more se
rious injury. I doubt whether this
is a worse record than that of baseball.
"At any rate it Is a small price to
pay tor a game which diverts ener
gies of one kind of boys from rowdy
ism and another kind from drinking.
"If. w. want to eliminate moss
play, we may do so merely by abol
ishing all gridiron lines and making
one comprehensive rule that the ball
changes hands on every down unless
the opponents have had a fair and
equal chance to get possession of It.
This would abolish mass play, root
and branch."
of the international boundary was an
nounced recently at a football ban
quet by "Bill" Hayward, coach of the
University athletes. Hayward came
to Vancouver for the purpose of wit
nessing the games between the Uni
versity of California team and Van
couver. He said he was Impressed
with It and would recommend the
adoption of the game.
Coach Schaeffer. of the Californians
created a sensation by declaring that
his team had been robbed of the sec
ond game by Referee J. S. Talt.
"I am not going bock to California'
and make a squeal there," said Schae
fer. "I am going to tell you to your
faces that I think we got the worst
of It."
