Sport Chips BY M"!11'1 'I T't1 Harry Chipman Mail Tnbui.e Sports Editor A couple of fellows called at the M-T office the other day and asked us to settle a wager for them on who In football history, had made the longest run from scrimmage. It turned out they we're both wrong the longest run from scrimmage was made by Wyilys Terry of Yale against Wesleyan, on Nov. 4, 1884, for 115 yards, according to the of ficial National Collegiate Ath letic Association football guide book for 1945. . In 1941 the statistics sub-committee of the NCAA football rules committee ruled that a 100-yard gain Is the most a play er can be credited with since it is th most the run can mean to his team. For those who are interested In football statistics and records, we print herewith some of the all-time gridiron records. Longest run-back of a kick off was made by Edmund Jack Bux'te of Mississippi, against Alabama, in 1931. He trotted 109 yards to score. Record for run-back of a punt is held by Benjamin Boynton who raced 101 yards for Wil liams against Hamilton in 1920. Robert Peters' pass to Howard Stanley, Princeton, against Army in 1939 went for 69 yards and holds the record. Longest scoring pass, without run, was mado from Robin Bell to How ard Kriss Ohio State, in a game with Chicago in 1927. A pass to Rupert O'Keefe from Joseph Leary of Mar quette against Alabama Poly in 1929 started a run which was good for 88 yards, to hold the record for the longest run with a complete pass. B. H. Hutchinson, Chicago, and Luther Perrin, S. W. Louisiana Institute, hold the record for the longest run with an intercepted pass, 105 yards. Hutchinson scored his against Wisconsin in 1918 and Perrin got his in a game with Stephen F. Austin in 1934. Santord B. White raced 95 yard? for Princeton against Har vard ii: 1911 to hold the record for th longest run following a blocked kick James T. Haxall. Princeton, booted a field goal from 85 yards out against Yale in 1882 to set a record. James C. Leech, VMI, 1920, scored 210 points in one season to lead that department. He made 26 touch downs 48 points-after-touch down and two field goals.
