SPALDING'S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL (;UIDE. ^
An Introductory Chapter for Beginners.
Those who are taking up the sport for the first time should
observe certain rules which will enable them to become adept
players with less mistakes than perhaps would otherwise fall
to their lot. . ;
A beginner in foot baU should do two things : He should read
the rules, and he should, if possible, watqh the practice. If the
latter be impossible, he and his menriaiist, after having read the
rules, start in and, with eleven on a Side, play according to their
own interpretation of these rules. When differences of opinion
arise as to the meaning of any rule, a letter addressed to some
one of the players upon prominent teams will almost always elicit
a ready and satisfactory answer.
The first thing to be done in starting the practice is to provide
the accessories of the game, which, in foot ball, are of the simplest
kind. The field should be marked , out with ordinary lime lines,
enclosing a space of 330 feet long and 160 feet wide. While not
absolutely necessary, it is customary to mark the field also with
transverse lines every five yards, for the benefit of the referee in
determining how far the ball is advanced at every down. In the
middle of the lines forming the ends of the field, the goal-posts
are erected, and should be eighteen feet six inches apart, with
cross-bar ten feet from the ground. The posts should project
several feet above the cross-bar. The ball used is an oval leather
cover containing a rubber inner, which is inflated by means of a
small air pump or the lungs. The ball used by the principal
teams is the Intercollegiate Match, No. J, adopted by the Inter-
collegiate Association, and made by A. G. Spalding & Bros. The
costumes of the players form another very important feature and
should be of a proper and serviceable nature. An innovation
in uniforms was introduced a few years ago by Harvard in the
shape of leather suits. Although they were expensive, and while
not on that account liable to be generally adopted, they were
particularly light and good for a rainy day. Canvas makes most
serviceable jackets for the players, as do also jerseys reinforced

with leather. These can be home-made or purchased at a small
expense from any athletic outfitter. The canvas jacket should fit
closely, but not too tightly, and lace up in front, so that it may
be drawn quite snugly. Some have elastic pieces set in at the sides,
back of arms, but these additions are by no means necessary.
Jerseys, with leather patches on elbows and shoulders, are also
worn. The trousers should be of some stout material, fustian,
for example, and well padded. This padding can be done by any
seamstress, quilting in soft material over knees and thighs, or the
regular athletic outfitters furnish trousers provided with the
padding. Long woolen stockings are worn, and not infrequently
shin guards, by men playing in the forward line. The most im-
portant feature of the entire uniform is the shoe. This may be
the ordinary canvas and leather base ball shoe with leather cross-
pieces nailed across the sole to prevent slipping. Such is the
most inexpensive form, but the best shoes are made entirely of
leather, of moderately stout material, fitting the foot firmly, yet
comfortably, lacing well up on the ankles, and the soles provided
with a small leather spike, which can be renewed when worn
down. Inside this shoe, and either attached to the bottom of it
or not, as preferred, a thin leather anklet laces tightly over the
foot, and is an almost sure preventive of sprained ankles. The
cap may be of almost any variety, and except in the cases of half-
backs and back, does not play any very important part. These
men, should, however, have caps with visors to protect their eyes
from the sun when catching a long kick.
Underneath the canvas jackets any woolen underwear may be
put on, most players wearing knit jerseys. As mentioned above,
there are several players who can, to advantage, go without the
regulation canvas jacket and wear a jersey in its place. These are
especially the quarter-back, the centre-rush or snap-back. Of
recent years backs and line men tend more than ever to the adop-
tion of the leather-reinforced jersey.
The team of eleven men is usually divided into seven rushers or
forwards, who stand in a line facing their seven opponents; a
quarter-back, who stands just behind this line; two half-backs,

a few yards behind the quarter-back; and finally, a full-back or
goal tend, who stands at kicking distance behind the half-backs.
This gives the general formation, but is, of course, dependent
upon the plays to be executed.
Before commencing practice, a man should be chosen to act as
referee, umpire and linesman, for in practice games it is hardly
necessary to have more than one official. The two sides then
toss up, and the one winning the toss has choice of goal or kick-
off. If there be a wind, the winner will naturally and wisely take
the goal from which that wind is blowing and allow his opponent
to have the ball. If there be no advantage in the goals he may
choose the kick-off, and his opponents in that case take which-
ever goal they like. The two teams then line up ; the holders of
the ball placing it upon the exact centre of the field, and the op-
ponents being obliged to stand back in their own territory at
least ten yards, until the ball has been touched with the foot.
Some man of the side having the kick-off must then kick the ball
at least ten yards into the opponents' territory. Preferably, there-
fore, he will send it across the goal line or else as far as he can,
and still have his forwards reach the spot in season to prevent
too great headway being acquired by the opponents' interference,
but he will not kick it across the side line. The opponents then
catch it and return it by a kick, or they run with it. If one of
them runs with it he may be tackled by the opponents. As soon
as the ball is fairly held ; that is, both player and ball brought to
a standstill, the referee blows his whistle and the runner has the
ball "down," and someone upon his side, usually the man called
the snap-back or centre-rush, must place the ball on the ground
at that spot for a "scrimmage," as it is termed. The ball is then
put in play again (while the men of each team keep on their own
side of the ball, under the penalty of a foul for off-side play)
by the snap-back's kicking the ball or snapping it back, either with
his foot, or more commonly with his hand, to a player of his own
side just behind him, who is called the quarter-back. The ball
is in play, and both sides may press forward as soon as the ball
is put in motion by the snap-back. Naturally, however, as the

quarter-back usually passes it still further behind him to a half-
back, or back, to kick or run with, it is the opposing side which
is most anxious to push forward, while the side having the ball
endeavor by all lawful means to retard that advance until their
runner or kicker has had time to execute his play. It is this
antagonism of desire on the part of both sides that has given rise
to the special legislation regarding the use of the hands, body
and arms of the contestants— and beginners must carefully note
the distinction. As soon as the snap-back has sent the ball behind
him, he has really placed all the men in his own line off-side;
that is, between the ball and the opponents' goal, and they, there-
fore, can, theoretically, occupy only the position in which they
stand, while the opponents have the legal right to run past them
as quickly as possible. For this reason, and bearing in mind
that the men "on side" have the best claim to right of way, it has
been enacted that the side having possession of the ball may not
use their hands or arms, but only their bodies, when thus off-
side, to obstruct or interrupt their adversaries, while the side
running through in the endeavor to stop the runner, or secure
possession of the ball may use their hands and arms to make
ves
passage for themsel,..
The game thus progresses in a series of downs, followed 1)y
runs or kicks, as the case may be, the only limitation being that
of a rule designed to prevent one side continually keepmg pos-
session of the ball without any material advance or retreat, which
would be manifestly unfair to the opponents. This rule provides
that in three "downs" or attempts to advance the ball, a side not
having made five yards toward the opponents' goal or retreated
twenty yards toward their own goal must surrender possession
of the ball. A still further provision makes it contrary to rule
that the team should retain possession by a second retreat of
twenty yards unless the ball has meantime gone into the posses-
sion of the opponents. As a matter of fact, it is seldom that a
team actually surrenders the ball in this way, because, after two
attempts, if the prospects of completing the five-yard gam appear
small it is so manifestly politic to kick the ball as far as possible

down the field, that such a method is more Hkely to be adopted
than to make a last attempt by a run and give the enemy pos-
session almost on the spot. In such an exigency, if a kick be
made, the rules provide that it must be such a kick as to give the
opponents fair and equal chance to gain possession of the ball and
must go beyond the line of scrimmage unless stopped by an op-
ponent. There is one other element entering into this progress
of the game, and that is the fair catch. This can be made from
a kick 1)y the opponents, provided the catcher takes the ball on
the fly. and, no other of his own side touching it, plants his heel
in the ground at the spot where the catch is made. This entitles
him to a free kick; that is, his opponents cannot come within
ten yards of his mark, made by heeling the catch, while he (and
his side) may retire such distance toward his own goal as he
sees fit, and then make a punt or a drop, or give the ball to some
one of his own side to place the ball for a place kick. Here
again, as at kick-off, when taking the free kick, he must make an
actual kick of at least ten yards, unless the ball is stopped by the
opponents. His own men must be behind the ball when he
kicks it, or be adjudged off-side.
Whenever the ball goes across the side boundary line of the
field, it is said to go ''into touch," or out of bounds, and it must
be at once brought back to the point where it crossed the line,
and then put in play by some member of the side which carried it
out, or first secured possession of it after it went out. The
methods of putting it in play are as follows: To touch it in at
right angles to the touch-line, and then kick it at least lo yards,
or most commonly, walk into the fiel'd and make an ordinary
scrimmage of it, the same as after a down. In this latter case,
the player who intends walking in with it must, before stepping
into the field, declare how many paces he will walk in, in order
that the opponents may know where the ball will be put in play.
He must walk in at least five and not more than fifteen yards.
We will suppose that the ball by a succession of these plays, runs,
kicks, downs, fair catches, etc., has advanced toward one or the
other of the goals, until it is within kicking distance of the goal
SPALDING S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 1 5
posts. The question will now arise in the mind of the captain
of the attacking side as to whether his best plan of operations will
be to try a drop kick at the goal, or to continue the running at-
tempts, in the hope of carrying the ball across the goal line, for
this latter play will count his side a touchdown, and entitle them
to a try-at-goal. On the other hand, upon any first down when
inside the twenty-five-yard line, if he try a drop kick and fail to
score, the ball can be brought out, not for a twenty-five-yard
Hne kick-out, but only a ten-yard one ; that is, his side can line
up at ten yards, so that the defenders of the goal are actually
forced to kick out from almost within their own goal. In de-
ciding, therefore, whether to try a drop kick or continue the
running attempts, he should reflect upon this and also upon the
value of the scores. The touchdown itself will count 5 points,
even if he afterward fail to convert it into a goal, by sending the
ball over the bar and between the posts, while, if he succeed
in converting it, the touchdown and goal together count 6 points.
A drop kick, if successful, counts 5 points, but is, of course, even
if attempted, by no means sure of resulting successfully. He
must, therefore, carefully consider all the issues at this point,
and it is the handling of those problems that shows his quality
as a captain. If he elects to continue his running attempts, and
eventually carries the ball across the line, he secures a touch-
down at the spot where the ball is finally held, after being carried
over, and any player of his side may then bring it out, and when
he reaches a suitable distance, place the ball for one of his side
to kick, the opponents, meantime, standing behind their goal
line. In placing the ball it is held in the hands of the placer,
close to, but not touching the ground, and then carefully aimed
until the direction is proper. Then, at a signal from the kicker
that it is right, it is placed upon the ground, still steadied by the
hand or finger of the placer, and instantly kicked by the place
kicker. The reason for this keeping it off the ground until the
last instant is that the opponents can charge forward as soon as
the ball touches the ground, and hence would surely stop the
kick if much time intervened. If the ball goes over the goal,
SPALDING'S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 17
it scores as above indicated, and the opponent-s then take it to the
middle o^ the field for kick-off again, the same as at the com-
mencement of the match. The ball is also taken to the centre of
the field if the goal be missed after a touchdown, although
formerly the opponents could then bring it out only to the twenty-
five-yard line.
There is one other issue to be considered at this point, and
that is, if the ball be in possession of the defenders of the goal,
or if it fall into their hands when thus close to their own goal.
Of course, they will naturally endeavor, by running or kicking,
to, if possible, free themselves from the unpleasant situation that
menaces them. Sometimes, however, this becomes impossible,
and there is a provision in the rules which gives them an oppor-
tunity of relief, at a sacrifice, it is true, but scoring less against
them than if their opponents should regain possession of the ball
and make a touchdown or a goal. A player may at any time
kick, pass or carry the ball across his own goal line, and there
touch it down for safety. This, while it scores two points for
his opponents, gives his side the privilege of bringing the ball
out to the twenty-five-yard line, except as noted above, and then
taking a kick-out, performed like kick-off or -any other free kick,
but it can be a drop kick, a place kick or a punt.
The succession of plays continues for thirty-five minutes in a
regular match. Then intervenes a ten-rriinute intermission, after
which the side which did not have the kick-off at the commence-
ment of the match has possession of the ball for the kick-off
for a second thirty-five minutes. The result of the match is
determined by the number of points scored during the two halves,
a goal from a touch-down yielding, 6 points, one from the field-
that is, without the aid of a touchdown— 5 points; a touchdown
from which no goal is kicked giving 5 points, and a safety count-
ing 2 points for the opponents! In practice it is usual to have
the two periods of play considerably shorter than thirty-five
minutes, generally not over twenty or thirty.

Foot Ball for the Spectator.
(Walter Camp in Collier's Weekly.)
That the American public has within the last five years become
remarkably well versed in the finer points of foot ball no one
who has attended any of the larger games questions. There is
patent at once in the comment of the body of spectators a per-
ception of what is technically correct in men and methods that
five years ago one would have been astounded to find save among
the coachers or players. But there are always appearing new
converts to the foot ball cult, while some of the older ones who
have not attended the earlier games are likely to desire a little
freshening up for the final games, and to these a study of the
tactics of the teams is interesting.
To begin at the very first line-up. when the ball is placed upon
the ground in the middle of the field, just fifty-five yards from
each goal, and the referee is asking both captains if they are
ready, preparatory to blowing the whistle which shall set in
motion the fast, furious and exciting seventy-minute contest-
then it is that one must be really very hardened or naturally
phlegmatic who does not feel the least thrill of excitement in
that breathless hush which precedes the kick-off. And what
ought this kick-off to be? There is a great advantage, if a team
could accomplish it, in so kicking the ball that it should not fall
into the hands of their opponents, but that they (the kickmg
side) should again secure it and thus be able to attack rather
than defend. But the rules are so framed as to make this achieve-
ment extremely difficult because the ball must go at least ten
yards into the opponents' territory.
The ordinary method, therefore, is to kick the ball straight
down the field and take a chance of one of the "backs" fumbling
it and an "end" securing it. Naturally this does not occur often,
and hence, as a rule, the side which kicks off loses the ball and
their opponents have really the first chance at the attack with the
running game.
Under the old rules, the side which had the kick-off might
SPALDING'S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 21
dribble, the ball and then pick it up and run with it, but the
present rules, providing that the ball must be kicked at least ten
yards into the territory of the opponent, have stopped this. There
is one other way, without a trick kick, for the side kicking off
to accomplish their purpose of getting a chance at the ball, and
that is to kick it across the opponents' goal line and, by following
it up sharply, prevent its being run out. In that case, the de-
fenders of the goal must themselves kick the ball out from their
own twenty-five yard line, so that they, too, are unable to try a
running game, but obliged to surrender the possession of the
ball at once by this kick-out. Many trick kicks have been de-
vised which shall send the ball ten yards and yet give the kicking
side an opportunity to procure possession of it. The best one that
has even been shown wtis that by Herschberger of the Chicago
team in a match against Pennsylvania. He kicked the ball on its
top, so that it rolled slowly along the ground, but had a distinct
follow, and at the same time that he kicked it he ran over it and
ahead of it while his line interfered with the opponents, and
Herschberger himself dropped at the ten-yard line and secured
the ball as it rolled to him.
Still another method is that of kicking the ball so that it hits
the middle man in the opposing line hard enough and squarely
enough to bound back from him before he can catch it. This
gives the kicking side an excellent opportunity to secure the ball,
but in actual practice it is pretty difficult to hit the man squarely
and, more than that, most centres are taught to dodge the ball
if it comes at them, and let it go to the back field.
But, after the ball has been kicked off in some one of these
various ways, the situation develops rapidly, and the next interest-
ing study is that of the general tactics of the game. It is usually
considered good foot ball judgment to kick while the ball is in
one's own territory and to play a running game within the ter-
ritory of the opponent. In this way a team does not undertake
to run with the ball further than half the length of the field, and
this is wisdom, because even with a strong attack there is gener-
ally a slip-up, or the opponents are too strong to admit of steady,
progress for a greater gain at one stretch than fifty yards.

SPALDING S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 23
A new situation again develops when a team is approaching the
opponents' goal, and has been so checked in the running game
that a kick is necessary. Here it is manifest that a punt which
crosses the goal line will be of little advantage ; in fact, quite
the contrary, for it only results in a touch-back for the defenders.
The team, therefore, will either try a drop-kick, a kick from place-
ment, which amounts to the same as a drop-kick, save that the
quarter-back holds it for the kicker, or, finally, kick the ball,
either by a quarter-back kick or by an ordinary kick from the
back, so that it may fall just short of the goal line and the kick-
ing side may have an opportunity of getting it either on a fumble
or through having a man on side, thus securing a touchdown.
This gives a general insight into some of the study of the
kicking side of the game. But the running game, also, is not al-
ways perfectly simple. There are special occasions for certain
plays and methods to be adopted which show plenty of general-
ship. In the first place, a quarter-back must not tire out any
one man, even though a good one, by sending him too frequently.
But when his team gets close to the opponents' goal line, he is
licensed to hammer with his best man repeatedly in order to
score.
When approaching the opponents' goal line, the team should
work the ball over toward the centre by a judicious selection of
plays, so that if the touchdown comes it will furnish an easy
kick for goal, and also because, if they should be unable to get
over the line, they can, on their last down, try a drop-kick with
some chance of success. Conversely, a team defending a goal
should continually force the opponents out toward the side line.
In assaulting an opponent's line with running plays it is of the
utmost importance to appreciate just what bearing the downs,
whether first, second or third, have upon the situation. Every
one understands that after two futile attempts to advance the
ball a side usually kicks; for, if the third attempt should also
fail to gain the necessary five yards, the ball will go to the
opponents on the spot, whereas a kick, while it surrenders the
ball, sends it well down the field. But the important difference
SPALDING S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 25
between a first and second down is not so well understood. Fake
plays and outside end runs should usually be attempted on first
downs, for they may net long gains; but they are also liable to
be stopped with loss, and this gives a side a chance to recover
that loss without surrender. When a side has approached quite
close to the enemyV goal it is sometimes wise to waste a first
down in some trick play that may bring a quick t6«chdown ; but
as a rule, on a second down, it is best to use a play that, while
not likely to gain a. great distance, will pretty surely take enough
to ensure continued possession. The great problem arises, how-
ever, upon a third down under these conditions. A team may be,
say, two yards from the ..opponents' goal line and a third down
requiring the ball to go those two yards or be lost. Two yards
only — can they make it? Or shall they try a drop-kick at goal?
In either case, failure means tire loss of the last chance to score.
If the run be tried and the ball fall, into the hand-s of the op-
ponents on a fumble, or if it be not carried over, they will cer-
tainly kick the ball out of danger at once. A drop-kick that
misses the goal may also result in the. same manner. There is no
way to decide but upon the merits of the respective performers.
With a first-class drop-kicker and a team that has- not been gain-
ing with some regularity in the running game, the kick is surely
indicated. But with a team that has fe'een pushing the opponents,
it is better to try the run, for the touchciown may lead to a goal,
which will count six points to but five-for the drop-kick.
Finally, one of the most serious problems of generalship comes
to a hard-pressed team down in their own. goal. If the team has
a lead of three points, and there is only a h-alf-minute to play, the
team can afford to make a safety and thus relieve the strain ; for a
kick-out, to which the safety entitles them, can hardly result pos-
sibly in the enemies scoring. Then, if a team has just secured the
ball on their own five-yard line, shall they punt at once and thus
perhaps run the risk of the opponents securing a fair catch within
easy kicking distance of the goal, or shall they first try to run it
out for some yards so that when they do kick the opponents will
have the ball too far out for a try at goalii

The Game of Foot Ball.
American college foot ball as it is played to-day had its incep-
tion in a match between Yale and Harvard in the fall of 1876.
Previous to that time foot ball in the United States had been
a kind of perversion of the English Association game, with most
of its bad faults and few of its good points. In 1876 Harvard and
Yale adopted the English Rugby rules just as they stood, and
from that time to the present day, through various additions and
modifications, the game has developed to its present point of
the most attractive of our autumn sports.
The field is rectangular, 330 feet long and 160 feet wide. It is
customary to mark this field from one goal line to the other
with white lines every 5 yards for the convenience of the referee
in measuring the distances gained or lost, for there is a rule
which makes it necessary for a side in possession of the ball to
advance it 5 yards or take it back 20 in three consecutive downs
or attempts.
The game is played by eleven men on a side and they can be
arranged in a variety of formations so long as the players are on
side, that is, do not get between the ball and their opponents'
goal line. A man may at any time run with the ball when he is
on side, and upon such occasions may be "tackled," that is, seized
by the opponents.
The game proceeds for two thirty-five minute halves, with a
ten-minute intermission, and the side which has scored the most
points during that time wins the game. The points which score
are as follows :
A goal obtained by touchdown, that is, by carrying the ball
across the opponents' goal line, touching it down, then bringing
it out, and kicking it from a place kick over the goal bar counts 6
points. A goal from a field kick, that is, from a drop-kick, or
* 0 *f
•= I
^ I
SPALDING'S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 29
place kick from the field, made without the intervening medium
of a touchdown, counts 5 points. A touchdown by itself, when
the side making it fail in their consequent goal-kick, counts 5
points. Finally, the defenders of a goal when hard pressed and
in possession of the ball may themselves carry the ball across their
own goal line and touch it down, which entitles them to a kick-
out somewhere within 25 yards of their goal line. But this
touchdown for safety, as it is called, scores 2 points against
them.
In laying out a field the following points may prove of assist-
ance :
The first thing to do is to mark the rectangular space according
to the dimensions given, namely, 160 feet in width, and 330 feet
in length. A tennis marker or something of that kind is the
best to use in making these lines, which should be very plain
and white. Other conveniences failing, a broom dipped in wetted
plaster-of-paris or lime will answer^ Having laid out these lines
it is customary to set up the goal posts, which are at each end of
the field in the middle of the end line.?! The posts are 18 feet 6
inches apart, and should be over 20 feet in height, with a hori-
zontal cross bar 10 feet from the ground. Having set up these
posts, the next thing to do is to mark the centre of the field which
will naturally be 165 feet from each end and 80 feet from each
side. This is the point from which the ball is started when the
game commences at kick-off. Two lines are then marked out
parallel to the goal lines and each 25 yards from the nearest goal.
These lines mark the limit of kick-out. The other 5-yard lines
can then be conveniently marked, there being four between the
25-yard line and the goal line at each end, and five between each
25-yard line and the centre of the field.
The rules of the game are enforced by two officials, the referee
and the umpire. These officials have as assistants the linesmen
and time-keeper. The rules of the game are annually revised in
the interest of the sport by a committee of men invited by the
University Athletic Club of New York to act in this capacity.
SPALDING S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 3I
The preface of Book of Rules gives a succinct recital of the main
features of the play thus rendering it quite possible even for one
who has never played to take up the sport understandingly.
Probably one of the things which interests foot ball players
and coaches as much as any part of the game to-day is the layout
of the grounds when considered as a place for practice, and also
what might be called the accessories of the game. This involves
something besides the simple field of play as it is seen by the
spectators at the time of a big match. It means the putting into
condition as well as marking out of that ground, the erection of
the goal posts, the placing of the tackling dummies and the
general preparation of the field and appurtenances even to the
uniforms and shoes of the players.
The dimensions of the field proper have already been given.
The fifth line out from each goal is the 25-yard line and should
be more heavily marked, and the centre of the field should also
be distinctly marked. It is advisable to have considerable space
behind each goal, because the ball will be kicked over at times and
there ought to be plenty of room for handling it or returning it.
It is at least better to have enough room behind the goal so that
the man defending the goal can safely punt the ball out when it
has been passed to him from just in front of his goal line.
Of the uniform, the shoes are of the most vital importance,
and should be stout with ankle supporters either separate or
attached to the shoe. Small blocks of leather on the bottoms have
rather taken the place of the long strip. The leather is left with
a pretty keen edge giving a better foothold. The rest of the
uniform as already described in this book can be purchased at
any of Spalding's stores and is strong and well made. The
head gear, shoulder pads, shin guards and like protections are
very generally used.
It is usual, for the sake of practice, to have a tackling dummy
erected on one side of the field, of course off the field of play,
where players are practiced in tackling low. A. G. Spalding &
Bros., manufacture the best, which are very stout and serviceable.

The attachment for tackling machine shown in illnstration
is manufactured by A. G. Spalding & Bros., and was in-
vented by Mr. John McMastcrs, trainer of the Harvard
team, and used by them in their practice last fall. The ar-
rangement of the whole thing is simplicity itself. When
the dummy is tackled and tackled hard, the spring will
l)car down until the dummy is released and the same effect
is obtained of tackling a man and downing him. It takes
good, strong tackling to do it, and renders it impossible
for anyone to tackle in a weak, careless way. This at-
tachment is furnished with block and spliced to rope ready
to be attached to any tackling machine for $15.
It is also advisable to have some space outside the field
where men may practice kicking at goal, drop kicking and
the like, and an extra set of goal posts should be there erected.

SfALDING*S OFFICIAL FOOT HALL GUIDE, 35
The Ethical Functions of Foot Ball.
BY CHARLES F. THWING, LL.D., PRESIDENT OF WESTERN RESERVE
UNIVERSITY AND ADELBERT COLLEGE, CLEVELAND.
(From the North American Review for November, 1901.)
I have before written of foot ball as a game of brains and
also as a game of hearts. I now wish to write of foot ball in a
relation yet more important. I desire to present some of its
ethical relations and functions.
First. Foot ball represents the inexorable. It embraces things
that must be done at specific times, places and in specific ways.
College life has its social side, and the social side is of im-
portance. For this side represents such minor or major graces
as gentleness, sweetness and graciousness itself. Never are these
conditions to be depreciated. They are ever to be assessed at
iheir full value and their full value is very high. But college
life, like all life, has another side. It has a side and relation
which demand the hardness and endurance of the soldier. It has
a side which is built up of mighty musts. This side is repre-
sented by foot ball. Every member of the eleven must train,
must practice, must endure risks, must mingle with his fellows,
must keep his temper, and must obey his captain.
From the top to the bottom and from the bottom to the top
of a high wall of heavy obligations the foot ball man is con-
stantly and unerringly obliged to go. I believe that the chief,
if not the only, basis of the charge which is sometimes brought
against the college, that it unfits a man for life, lies in the sub-
stitution of may for must in the ordinary scholastic relations.
But foot ball teaches a man the value of the inexorable. It
brings each student up short and sharp against laws which are
to be absolutely kept. Of such laws life itself is full. Acquaint-
SPALDING S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 37
ance with such laws man should make in his youth. The col-
lege offers the most fitting time and place for making such
acquaintance ; and foot ball is among the most fitting of all pos-
sible methods and means for making this acquaintance.
Second. Foot ball illustrates the value of the positive. In
the building of character, the negative has some, but slight, value.
It represents the more elementary conditions of the ethical proc-
ess. The Old Testament says "thou shalt not," and this is well;
the New Testament says "thou shalt," and this is better. It is
well to adopt as one's ethical rule that whatever is not expressly
allowed is denied ; it is better to adopt as one's ethical rule that
whatever is not expressly denied is allowed. Life is to be inter-
preted as sound, wholesome, righteous, unless there be evidence
to the contrary, and never as corrupting, base, wrong, unless there
be evidence to the contrary. Such an interpretation creates the
highest qualities of health and of healthfulness. Be it said foot
ball embodies and enforces such an interpretation. It empha-
sizes the aggressive, the forth-putting, the direct, the positive.
It teems with the glorious sense of certainty. It embodies Car-
lyle's "eternal yea." It illustrates the science and art of realism.
It embodies actuality. It stands for the perpendicular. It
teaches one to do. Its commands are condensed into the com-
mand "forward." It bucks, it pushes, it breaks, it runs, it goes;
it goes through the line, it goes round the ends, but it goes.
Third. Foot ball in its ethical relations represents the value
of a compelling interest. College life has many interests; most
of these interests are good ; a few indifferent ; and a very few of
evil relations. Most students have some share in all that helps
to constitute college life, but only a few students have an ab-
sorbing interest in any one of these relations. It is well for
each man to possess at least one interest which is absorbing. Such
an interest develops the conscience and the whole character. It
creates force and it also makes more forceful forces already ex-
isting. Athletics, and foot ball in particular, represent a condi-
tion well fitted to call out and to develop in a commanding and
compelling way the essential powers of the student. I, of course.
SPALDING'S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 39
believe it would be better if scholarship represented this absorbing
and compelling interest. It would be well if some great humane
movement or institution, such as the college settlement, repre-
sented this absorbing or compelling interest. But one takes, and
one is glad to take, the college man as he is. One, therefore, uses
those methods and means with the college student which are the
more practicable. Foot ball represents this method or means;
foot ball absorbs and compels. The objector might possibly say-
it absorbs too completely and compels too arrogantly. In the
case of some students I should agree with the objector, and
assent to the value of his objection. But for most men, under
conditions existing, foot ball represents a wholesome method for
calling out a compelling interest on the part of the student. For
the student, like certain ranges of society, is in peril of the evil
of indifferentism. Dry rot is one of the dangers. Nil admirari
is a not uncommon motto. A lackadaisical lassitude easily
touches him. In such a condition foot ball does for him what
calomel did in the old pharmacopccia for the permanent invalid.
Speaking of a lazy boy, Emerson said, or is said"to have said, "Set
a dog on him, send him West, do something to him." Foot ball
accomplishes a result of the kind Emerson wished to accomplish.
A father, himself a distinguished publisher, said to me recently
that his little baby, of a few days old, seemed at one time to be
dying or dead, no breathing could be distinguished; no pulse
found. But the nurse took the little weakling by one heel and
flung it around several times, making "a full circle in the air.
The currents of life were set in motion; it revived; it is now
living in fatness and health. Foot ball arouses, absorbs, compels
interest.
Fourth. Foot ball, further, embodies the process of self-
discovery. Self-discovery is a condition, but it is more than a
condition, it is also a means. All the early years of one's life
are years of the revealing of self to self; they are years of self-
revelation both as a cause and as a consequence of self-enlarge-
ment. What rapture belongs to the true soul in finding he is a
larger, stronger, better man than he believed himself to be; what
SPALDING S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 4!
remorse, or at least regret, belongs to the noble soul in finding he
is less large, less strong, less good than he believed himself to
be. One recalls the chagrin which John Inglesant in Short-
house's great story experienced in finding that near the close of
his career he was inclined to play fast and loose with a tempta-
tion which in the earlier time he had sternly resisted. Foot ball
proves to many a man what he is. It makes Tcnown to him that
he has more or less physical strength than he believed he had.
In intellectual vision or provision it shows him whether he is
more or less alert ; in executive planning and detail it shows him
whether he is more or less prompt and able; in heart it shows
him whether he is more enthusiastic or more indifferent; and in
conscience it also proves to him whether he is more or less
righteous than he believed himself to be. Every foot ball game
is a crisis. It not only creates and develops power, it also dis-
covers the possession or the lack of power.
Fifth. The last of the five points of the ethical Calvinism
of foot ball to which I shall allude is self-restraint. Foot ball
develops self-restraint. Self-restraint, or more broadly self-
control, is one of the primary signs of the gentleman. It repre-
sents the subordination of the less worthy to the more worthy,
of the relatively good to the relatively better, of the relatively
better to the absolutely best, of meanness to nobility, of the tem-
poral to the eternal, of the narrow to the broad, of indifferentism
to the cardinal virtues, verities and graces. Foot ball demands
self-restraint, and therefore it develops self-restraint. For it
teems with temptations to be mean. It affords manifold
opportunities to do nasty things. These temptations yielded' to,
these opportunities embraced, character becomes mean and nasty.
Some men cannot resist such opportunities and temptations, and
such men should never set foot on the gridiron. I recall that in
one foot ball season a Junior, who was one of the best men on the
eleven, said to me he had decided to quit playing. In answer to
my inquiry respecting the reason, he said he could not keep him-
self from doing mean things to the man opposite, I was sur-
prised, for I had always judged the student to be a man of fine
spalding'3 official foot ball guide. 43
character. I asked : "But don't the officials keep you from
breaking the rules?" "Oh," said he, "I can slug the fellow or
kick him, or do him up easily enough, and no official ever be the
wiser." I may add that my advice to the student v/as to stay in
the game, and, staying, to make himself a man worthy to play
the game. He did stay. In answer to inquiries of mine after-
ward made, he said he thought he was doing better. The grid-
iron is a small ethical world, marked all over with the white lines
of moral distinctions. It is like an experiment in the laboratory
in which certain natural phenomena are segregated in order that
the understanding of those phenomena may be more readily ac-
quired. It is a moral apprenticeship, an ethical practice school.
It is in ethics what the Socratic thinking shop was supposed to
be — a training of the individual. Foot ball thus develops the
superb quality of self-restraint. It thus helps to make the finest
type of the gentleman.
I know perfectly well that the game of foot ball as played in
American colleges is subject to very serious evils. Let no 'at-
tempt be made to depreciate the evil of these evils. But these
evils, be it said, relate rather to the conduct of the game and its
incidental conditions than to its essential elements. Before and
above these evils I would emphasize its functions in developing
the gentleman of ethical character and conduct. For foot ball
represents the inexorable, it teaches the value of the positive, it
illustrates the worth of a compelling interest, it promotes self-
discovery, and it disciplines self-restraint.

team, absolutely deadly in his tackling, and heavy and strong enough

to meet interference when it came
at him. There was only one point
in which any ends surpassed him,
and that was in lending assistance
to the runner in offensive push
plays. Here Campbell as well as
Bowditch of Harvard were his
equals, and a little his superiors.
He was a man whom it was impos-
sible to draw in on trick plays, and
in one of Princeton's most important
games, namely, that with Yale, his
self-restraint in this matter enabled
him to stop DeSaulles on a very
prettily executed double pass, with
a gain of only three or four yards
when it might easily have resulted against the ordinary end in a run
of 25 or 30.
Campbell of Harvard deserves the other end position for his excel-
lent all-round play. While not perhaps as brilliant as he has been
upon occasions in other seasons, he
was a far steadier and more con-
sistent performer. He played the
game for all there was in it, and
time and again, especially in the
Pennsylvania game, assisted the
Plarvard runner more materially
than the interferers who were nearer
the runner at the start. He has
always been a hard man to get by
but this year showed an experience
which, had he had it last season,
might have helped him to prevent
Sharpe of Yale getting his two or
three long end runs.
But the position of end this year

found many men who could com-
bine several qualities. As a matter
of fact, not long ago there were
times when even first- class teams
counted an end perfect if he could
get down the field under a kick,
could box a tackle, and could keep a
runner on the inside. To-day he
has to help in the push plays, meet
interference, and, in fine, his rela-
tion to the line and backs is far
more intimate than ever before.
Of the men who deserve mention
for their quality in these points,
in addition to the players already
'^'^ named, there are Swan of Yale,
Henry of I'rincetou, Gould of Yale, Van Hoevenberg of Columbia,
Gardiner of Pennsylvania, O'Neil, the captain of the Williams team ;
Farnsworth of West Point, Ilaldeman of Lafayette, Taussig of Cor-
nell, Bollandand Weir of Syracuse, Redden of Michigan, and Whiting
of Annapolis.
Cutts, of Harvard, was the strong-
est man in the tackle position of
any of the candidates for honors
this season. Mature, powerful, and
with an experience extending over
eight years, this year found him
able to take to the best advantage
good coaching and to benefit by the
experience of such an able instructor
as Bert Waters, while the tackle-
back style of play found in him an
ideal runner either with the ball or
as an interferer.
The other tackle position goes to
Bunker of West Point. The Army Holt, Yale.

53
team, as a team, was far superior
to its usual standard, and Bunker
in the games he played was a star,
and on a team such as the All-
America team of this season makes
an excellent match for Cutts.
After these two men comes
Wheelock, of Carlisle, 205 pounds
in weight, fast and more experi-
enced than any other tackle save
Cutts, Blagden of Harvard, and
Gross of Yale, all first-class men,
even in a star field. Hogan of
Yale was also a most promising
first year's man, hut was not sufii-
Lee, Harvard. ciently assisted by his team to
reach his perfection. Pell of Princeton, too, was far better than last
season, and DeWitt of the same university was most versatile, com-
bining a kicking running game with his regular tackle duties.
With the development of the tackles play this season new qualities
have been demanded ; but for all that there
never was a year when the standard of ex-
cellence in this position was higher. When
it becomes necessary to leave off a list of All-
America teams such men as Shorts of Michi-
gan, Kindgen of Columbia, Lueder of Cor-
nell, W. Haldeman of Lafayette, and Pier-
karski of Pennsylvania, it shows how the
game has grown.
The position of guard this season has had
in it no stars like Brown, la.st year's Yale
captain, but it has had men of experience
whose work has been what that of the guard
needs most to be— consistent and'conscien-
tious. Warner of Cornell has done the most
work in the place, with Lee of Harvard a

good second. Barnard of Harvard and Hunt of
Cornell with their own teams behind them would
be nearly a match for Lee and Warner, but
placed in the positions of these two men I doubt
if the latter pair would show the ability to adapt
themselves to circumstances as completely as this
first selection. Olcott of Yale and Teas of Penn-
sylvania fill up the remaining places, both having
demonstrated a clear understanding of the duties
devolving upon a guard. And in this place there
were a number of other good men, notably Ernst
of Lafayette, Lerum of Wisconsin, Belknap of
Annapolis, Dana and (when in condition) Mills of
Princeton, and Lancon of Columbia.
There have been no brilliant centres this year.
Sargent of Harvard played some good games and
gave great promise, but was unable to play in his final match, while
Green, who took his place, although filling the position most ably in
that contest, could hardly be judged on a season's work. Holt of
Yale went through the entire season, met all kinds of centres, and was
never a point of weakness, no matter
what the pressure. Furthermore, in
the important games of this season
he was forced to play between two
guards, one of whom was a substi-
tute tackle and had had almost no
experience as guard and the other
a man who, though an admirable
fighter, was merely a shadow of his
former self, not weighing much over
170 pounds. Holt always gave the
ball well to his quarter, and the
handling between them aided Yale
very materially in her important con-
tests. Holt, therefore, deserves the
place. Next to him, Bachman of Daly, West Pi.
SPALDING S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE.
57
Kernan, Harvard.
Lafayette was the most substan-
tial, and Fisher, for his play in
general and in his final match,
takes third place. Lowenthal of
Illinois, by his excellent work
against Page of Minnesota, one
of the best centres in the Middle
West, and his steady performance
tliroughout the season, is worthy
of mention. Centres were per-
haps not as marked in quality
this season as in some others,
but there were many good ones
who, for one reason or another,
either not playing consistently or
not having the opportunity to
play the earlier games of the season, cannot be classed. Sargent and
Greene of Harvard, Page of Minnesota, Boyers of West Point, and
Kent of Cornell are all good men, the latter two making up for size
with quality. Wikoff, the Syracuse captain, was also a strong player.
In quarter-backs, it takes no
argument to place Daly, ex-Har-
vard, and now West Point, at the
top of the list. Last year the
captaincy at Harvard so affected
his playing as to render him out-
classed, and one would hardly
recognize in the brilliant work
of this man, exhibited in his
games of this season, the same
man who played behind the Har-
vard line in the Yale game last
year and whom Chadwick in that
contest easily passed for a touch-
down. The other two places go
to DeSaulles of Yale, whose work Weekes, Columbia.
SPALDING S OFFICIAL FOOT HALL GUIDE. 59
in the Princeton game gave Yale much of
the advantage which she turned into victory,
whose handling of the ball, catching of
punts, running back and tackling have all
been first-class, and to Johnson of the
Indians, one of the most brilliant runners
on the foot ball field this year. The con-
tinuance of Daly in the field and his return
this year to something like his form of two
years ago pushes all competitors for this
position down one peg, and there are a num-
ber who have a right to be classed as well
up to the standard. Marshall of Harvard,
Brewster of Cornell, Weeks of Michigan,
McNair of Annapolis, and Howard of Penn-
Graydon, Harv.-^rd. sylvania all showed high quality.
Kernan of Harvard gets the first position among the half-backs,
with Weekes of Columbia second and Graydon of Harvard for full-
back. With this trio receiving the ball from Daly, there would be no
faster back field ever put together, both in striking the line and for
runs outside tackle, while between Kernan and Daly the kicking
would be ably taken care of and the team made complete. Tackle-
back plays with Cutts or Bunker drawn back, Kernan, Graydon and
Weekes making the other three, would find few lines that would not
yield to the assault. Weekes is unquestionably the best end runner
in the country, but Kernan is close to him in speed and is one of the
most remarkable scoring half-backs of this or any year, while Gray-
don matches in well on rapid striking power. On the second eleven,
Purcell of Cornell and Ristine of Harvard easily take the half-back
places, while Cure of Lafayette for his excellent kicking and general
running ability fills up the trio on the third eleven. Heston of Michi-
gan makes the best of scoring powers, as his record well attests, while
Morley of Columbia goes in for his defensive play, which is un-
equalled. Of other full-backs, Schoelkopf of Cornell has been the
most consistent performer and so fills up the last vacancy.
The field of half-backs and backs was this year a tremendously full
Spalding's official foot ball guide. 6i
one, and good men were crowded out on all sides. Among the men'
behind the line, Berrien of Columbia, Chadwick and Weymouth of
Yale, Sweeley of Michigan, Morris and Brown of Syracuse, Coffin of
Cornell, Smith of Columbia, Davidson and Reynolds of Pennsylvania,
Jaeckel of Williams and a host of others could be classed only as ex-
cellent and desirable timber for any team.
Just a few further words regarding certain players on the list
belonging to teams other than Harvard, Yale or Princeton. As to
the West Point selections, Daly needs no comment save that already
given. Bunker is more or less familiar to followers of Army-Navy
foot ball. He was very strong on offence, in carrying the ball from
position, was a quick starter and was used as the forward man in
West Point's strong tackle-back formation. He showed up rather
better than the best of his opponents, even against the leaders. As
to Cornell, Warner, captain, was a strong, aggressive guard and con-
ceded by his opponents to be one of the hardest players to handle.
Hunt was patterned after his captain and many believed would, if
facing on some other team, have given him a difficult job. He was
good in interference and could himself advance the ball. Purcell was
a strong defensive player and a fast, calculating runner. He had,
also, the merit of keeping his feet well and always taking his opening.
Weekes and Morley of Columbia have been introduced to readers
in this connection too frequently in the past to make it necessary to
go further than the comment already given in the text. Teas of
Pennsylvania was the sole support of a weak line. In the Columbia
game he fought his way through repeatedly, but finally succumbed.
The same was true of other games. He was a good man, but wholly
without backing. Heston of Michigan was the best back on a team
that was never scored on and rolled up the biggest total on record.
It is a pity we cannot measure him by a big Eastern game.
Captain W. E. Bachman, centre, was by all odds the most valuable
man in Lafayette's line. He weighed 196 pounds, had speed, three
years' experience, and diagnosed quickly opponents' play. He seldom
failed to be down on kicks first, was powerful in stopping centre
plays, and did so much tackling that it was said Fisher, Princeton's
centre was practically forced to attend solely to him every time he

SPALDING'S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 63
(Fisher) snapped the ball. In every game he was prominent for
tackling outside tackle and at ends, but never at the expense of cen-
tre defence. On offence he opened holes finely, dropping upon a
diving opponent, pinning his head to the ground and rolling sidewise
to let his man through, leading his man through and away from a
player or playing low and lifting to one side. His versatility in
methods is one of the striking features of his play.
Cure was valuable as a ground gainer, both through the line and
outside tackle. He is too well known as a kicker to require intro-
duction.
Wheelock played left guard for Carlisle early in the season and left
tackle in the later games. He was handicapped throughout the
season by a wrenched knee and this interfered especially with his
punting, but in spite of that he played a very strong game as tackle.
He has probably had more experience than any other player on college
teams, and tackle is his ideal position. Weighing 205 pounds, he is
very fast and a very fierce player ; he is also strong running with the
ball in the tackle-back formation and an excellent interferer. His
punting and place-kicking ability make him an all-round player
whose equal would be hard t^ find.
Johnson, the Indian quarter- back, is one of the most remarkable
runners on the gridion. When he determines to give his own signal
and complete a double pass he is almost certain of bringing off a long
run. In the Pennsylvania game he was simply unstoppable.
Finally, a little comment as to the possibilities on attack and
defence of the first of the selected teams 01 lyoi.
With this eleyen Cutts and Bunker have shown themselves perfect
in tackle-back formation, while Kernan and Graydon running in such
formations are absolutely certain ground gainers, but tackle-back
without some remarkable man is only a gainer of moderate distances
at a time. And it has already been demonstrated many times that
there are occasions in a game Avhere a long end run is the only thing
that will fully answer the requirements. Here we have in Weekes
just the man for the occasion. Time and again has he demonstrated
his ability to get around well outside the opponents' tackle. Hence
with him the combination is complete.

As to kicking, between Daly and Kernan to send the punts or drops-
and Campbell and Davis to get down under the kicks and tackle the
man catching, there is nothing to ask further ; while the centre trio
of Warner, Holt and Lee would not only protect Daly but would
give him the ball steadily and accurately for all his work.

The captaincy of this team narrows down to two men, namely -.
Morley or Daly, either of whom would fill the place admirably.
Morley is selected because of his indomitable physical force, his
excellent judgment and his remarkable ability to get the maximum
amount of work out of any team over which he has control. It will
be observed that this team, while not burdened with superfluous
avoirdupois, possesses :3ufficient weight to enable it to carry out suc-
cessfully the most recent formations under the guards-back or tackle-
back system. At the same time the men selected are all conspicuous
for aggressiveness and speed, and are sufficiently strong and sound to
maintain a fast pace throughout the full championship period. The
kicking would be admirably cared for by Daly, Morley and Kernan,
while both Daly and Morley have more than once proved their ability
luidauntedly to drop goals from the field in the face of a fierce-
charging line ; the line men possess both speed and strength enough
to jump their opponents into an oncoming tackle-back play before it
could reach the line.

Ends. — It is tO be doubted if a speedier or physically stronger end
than Davis has been seen on a college foot ball field in many years.
He is a born sprinter, a fierce determined tackier of the Hinkey type,
strong enough to smash the most formidable interference when on de-
fence, or to box a giant tackle when an offence. I regard him the best
all around end of the year, and with five or six other eastern ends
little below him, it is extremely difficult to decide which to choose.
One would be justified in selecting as running mate to Davis, either
Bowditch or Campbell of Harvard, or Swan or Gould of Yale, Henry
of Princeton, or Farnsworth of West Point. Bowditch is speedier than
any of the others except Henry, and is so much harder to put out of
the play that preference is given him on the first team. Campbell
and Swan are chosen for the second team because they apparently
come nearer to the well-balanced ability of the other men than do
Gould, Henry and Farnsworth. Gould is, perhaps, the best offensive
end playing foot ball, and his all-round game during the fall has been
very fine, but owing to his poor physical condition, he could not do
himself full justice in the big games, although one must not infer
from this that his playing against either Princeton or Harvard was
not first-class. He lacks the speed of the other ends, however.
Henry is relatively as strong in defence as Gould on ofifence, but his
offensive playing is not as good. Farnsworth is one of the best men
on the Army team, especially for offensive work. He rarely failed
to box his taclclerj completely in the important games played by West
Point.
O'Neil and Wilbur, of Williams, made a fine pair of ends, the latter
being especially hard to pass. Taussig and Tydeman were Cornell's
ends, but the former was severely retarded by injuries and hardly
equalled his last year's form. Other good ends were Gardiner of
Pennsylvania, one of the few men on that team who knew how to
tackle. Brown of Lafayette, a strong defensive player ; Ackert of Wes-
leyan, Blanchard of Amherst, Bartlett of West Point, and O'Connor
of Dartmouth. Boland and Weir of Syracuse were also great players.
Tackles. — Harvard's pair, ig6 pounds apiece, bulls at rushing and
bulwarks in defense, hold the palm. Cutts is the best tackle at
Harvard since "Ma" Newell won all hearts. He is fast, strong, per-

sistent, versatile. Yale had a good pair in Goss and Hogan, the
former being slightly better all-round, Hogan's offence was, how-
ever, very gcod indeed. Princeton turned out one good tackle in
Pell and one fair one in DeWitt. The gains through Pell were not
his fault, but rather due to poor backing up 1)y the rush-line back;
considering his physical condition, his game against Yale was admir-
able. DeWitt is a brilliant runner and fair punter, but is not a
tackle. His position should be guard. Bruce of Columbia was a
strong offensive player, and Web of Brown was the best man on that
team. Bunker of West Point was r. good line breaker, fast in going
down on kicks, and an indefatigable worker. Adams of Annapolis,
Lueder of Cornell, Lamson of Lafayette, Hatch and Jones of Wil-
'liams. Place of Dartmouth, Newton of Wesleyan, and Morse of Am-
herst, also deserve honorable mention.
Guards. — Not so completely filled as in 1900, but there were some
very able ones nevertheless. Harvard's were excellent, Barnard hav-
ing a shade the better of it, and in Hunt and Warner, Cornell was
nearly as well equipped. The former is one of the coming players,
strong, alert, a fine ground gainer. Mills of Princeton played the
best game of his career, though crippled in the Cornell and Yale
games with a broken Achilles tendon. Dana's injuries made it im-
possible to maintain his usually good game.
Although Yale's guards were good, they were relatively the weakest
part of her line. Olcott, a splendid player, was so much under
weight that he could hardly hold his own, and Hamlin was a bit be-
low the Yale standard. Penn's guards were too light to be very
effective, though Bennett did some strong individual work at times.
Lafayette turned out a first-class pair in Ernst and Trout, the former
being slightly the better. Both are fine ground gainers and rank very
high on the list Lawrence of Williams. Silliman and Pike of Wes-
leyan, Belknap of the Navy, and Goodspeed of the Army, were val-
uable men.
Centres. — There is no one in the class with Bachman this year.
He handles his 195 pounds like an antelope, is sure in snapping,
lightning fast in charging, and gets down the field like a breeze. Of
the others. Holt of Yale and Fisher of Princeton, are about on a par.

steady, careful, strong, though lacking in brilliancy. Both should
show improvement in another year. Kent of Cornell made the most
of his light weight, but would not liave been able to have withstood
the plunges of the heavy Harvard or Yale attack. Montgomery of
Wesleyan was very active and a good tackier. Green of Harvard,
who fully held his own with Holt, put up an amazingly fine game for
a man called upon, without previous experience, at the last moment
to enter so important a contest.
Quarter-backs. — A puzzle to class them. More good ones for
this position than for any other, save end. Daly, Brewster, DeSaulles
of Yale, and Marshall of Harvard, are all in a class; with Freeman
of Princeton, Howard of Pennsylvania, Scudder of Brown, Moore and
Jayne of Williams, Daniels of Amherst, Witham of Dartmouth, and
McNair of Annapolis, not far behind. Indeed a poor quarter-back
was a ra7-a avis last fall.
Daly's work was the best in his career. He never punted (^. g.
average 40 yards against the wind in the Navy game) nor drop-kicked
so well for Harvard ; his generalship, running back and interference
were of the.highest order. Even allowing for luck, and he certainly
had that, his success entitles him to first place, for it is the player
who gets there which counts. Brewster punts as well as Daly and is
the most deadly interferer of all the quarter-backs of the year. As
he is physically stronger than DeSaulles and much less liable to
fumble or to get hurt, he is the safer man for second choice. De-
Saulles made a brilliant record for Yale and except for the reasons
named would be the choice. Marshall's fine game against Yale put
him up in the first division.
Half-backs. — Kernan, brilliant, fast, heavy, the longest punter
(save Cure) of the year, a good helper, a strong rush-line back, is first
of the season's backs. Morley, stocky, muscular, not to be denied
his two yards help or no help (and three times two means six, or a
first down, you know !) able to repeat indefinitely, the best interferer
in present day foot ball, a forty yard punter and a drop-kicker who
can actually score — here is a running mate for Kernan who will in-
sure us steady progress when our team starts its offence. Weekes is
far better than in 1900, because he is less dependent upon Morley,

His broken field running, line plunging and tackling are all of the
highest order. Chadwick is a grand player, although not physically
able to turn out his best work in Yale's big games, ])ut as a plunger
who can keep his feet, run low and hold the distances he gains, he
has few equals. Graves of Williams and Piatt of Lafayette would
probably have made any team in the East, and they, with Ristine of
Harvard, are out of the blue-ribbon class simple because there is no
room for more.
Purcell and Coffin, Cornell's pair, also rank up in the same com-
pany, but seemed to lack the staying qualities of the others. McClave
of Princeton has no superior as a rush-line back in defensive work
and is a harder plunger as well, but has fumbled badly this year,
Reynolds of Pennsylvania, Corscaden of Wesleyan, Watson of Wil-
liams, Brown and Patterson of Dartmouth, Casad of West Point,
Freyer of Annapolis, and Piram of Amherst, were all excellent
players, as were Brown and Henderson of Syracuse.
Full-backs. — There were several giant plungers of the new type,
any one of whom would be good enough for our first team. Graydon
of Harvard is a fierce line plunger, excellent interferer, carries his
opponents from one to ten yards after being tackled, and is always
"on his game." Cure of Lafayette, 193 pounds, is a hard plunger
and the longest punter in the colleges. Davidson of Pennsylvania,
186 pounds, did phenomenal work almost unaided. He has no supe-
rior in offensive or defensive work in his position. Inglis of Wesleyan
is another full-back who, liarring his injuries, would have reached
the top of the ladder. H he had played for one of the big universi-
ties his praises would have been sounded from Maine to California,
Bates of Brown is a full-back of the good old style and was punting
in ideal fashion when injuries forced him from the game. Peabody
of Williams, Knibbs'of Dartmouth, Schoelkopf of Cornell, Nichols of
Annapolis, and Graves of West Point, are all players deserving recog-
nition.
There are in fact, many players of the Trinity, Lehigh, Union,
Hamilton, Bowdoin and other teams of excellent quality, whose work
during the igoi season entitles them to warm commendation and en-
couragement.

Some Representative Teams of the Season
and Their Work.
YALE— HARVARD.
The most important game of the season finally turned out to
be that between Harvard and Yale at Cambridge. Yale had de-
feated Princeton on the previous Saturday, and two weeks before
Harvard had defeated Pennsylvania. The memory of Yale's
overwhelming victory of the previous year still remained in the
minds of the foot ball public, and, in spite of the very marked
perfection of the Harvard team, that memory kept many from
believing that they could possibly have an easy victory over
Yale.
Nearly 40,000 people, therefore, purchased tickets to see this
contest, and in spite of disagreeable weather, a piercing wind
and an overcast sky, the crowd was a magnificent sight when the
two teams lined up for the kick-off. Harvard won the toss, and
the struggle began. Within the first ten minutes Yale twice had
the ball inside Harvard's 25-yard line and anything like the power
of her attack of the previous year would have enabled her to
score, but it became manifest at once that not only was Harvard's
defence exceptionally strong, but Yale's attacking power far below
the average of Yale's teams.
From that time on it became apparent that, barring accident,
Harvard would surely win, and as her team piled up score after
score, it only became a question of whether the Cambridge repre-
sentatives would equal the score that Yale made against Harvard
the previous year and thus take a vicarious revenge for the defeat
of her team at New Haven. As it turned out. Harvard almost
succeeded in doing this, but a desperate struggle by Yale toward

the end prevented them from adding that crowning glory to the
contest, and the game ended with a score of 22 — o in favor of
Harvard.
YALE— PRINCETON.
The Yale-Princeton game was played at New Haven under
good conditions and resulted in a victory for Yale, although
toward the end of the game the Princeton team made a heroic
effort to stem the tide of defeat and for a time it looked as
though they would force the hall up the field to the Yale goal,
Captain Pell heing particularly strong in spite of his weakened
physical condition due to injuries earlier m the season.
The play was not particularly inspiring, nor was the team-
work of either side up to what teams of other years had occasion-
ally exhibited.
The final score, 12 — o in favor of Yale, was fairly indicative of
the merits of the two teams.
CORNELL— PENNSYLVANIA.
Cornell on Thanksgiving Day administered the — to them—
long-hoped-for defeat of the "Red and Blue." There was very
little speculation as to the result, for Cornell had a fairly strong
team and Pennsylvania was much weaker than for many years.
The loss of star- players on the Pennsylvania team seemed to
have completely crippled Ihcir former style of attack, and Cornell
gained confidence every minute and took revenge for past de-
feats at the hands of the home team. The final score was 24 — 6.
HARVARD— PENNSYLVANIA.
Harvard journeyed to Pennsylvania at just about the tin:?
when her team was beginning "to come, and to come fast," but
was still more or less erratic and liable to sudden attacks of
stage fright. Upon one of these occasions Pennsylvania had a
very excellent opportunity to score, but failed. Again, however,

there came a similar opportunity, and upon this second occasion
Pennsylvania availed themselves of the chance and scored.
Harvard was undoubtedly far too strong for the Quaker organi-
zation, which showed its manifest lack of weight when lined
up against the heavy, massive forwards of the visitors, and the
"tackle-back," led by Cutts, plowed great holes in their line time
after time. The final score was Harvard, 33; Pennsylvania, 6.
CORNELL— PRINCETON.
Here was a struggle well worthy of any gridiron. The matches
between these two teams are usually productive of the greatest
interest and are bitterly fought out. In this case the final decision
of the game depended upon the ruling of an official on a safety
touchdown, the two teams outside of this point being even at
6 — 6. This was a difficult and delicate decision, but it settled the
game, making the score Princeton, 8; Cornell, 6.
YALE— COLUMBIA.
The Yale-Columbia game was played at New Haven before a
large and sympathetic audience, and although Yale succeeded in
defeating the visitors, Columbia, through a brilliant drop-kick
by Morley, succeeded in scoring, and it was only by the most
severe work and call upon all their resources that Yale was able
to push the ball twice over Columbia's goal and make the game
safe. In the heat of the contest the game was unusually rough
and hence not as satisfactory as some of the other contests. The
score was 10 — 5 in Yale's favor.
COLUMBIA— PENNSYLVANIA.
Columbia met Pennsylvania in New York on the Polo Grounds,
and although the visitors at times exhibited a smartness and
alertness of play that spoke well for the individual character of
the men, they were overmatched in weight and in scoring ability,
and Columbia defeated them with comparative ease. Score 11 — o
in favor of Columbia.

CORNELL— COLUMBIA.
Cornell has usually shown up to particular advantage in the
game with Columbia. There seems to be some mysterious tradi-
tion at each place, for Cornell usually plays her best game when
meeting the New York representatives, and the men wearing the
Blue and White colors almost invariably play an inferior game
upon the occasion of that meeting. This year it was nut as
marked as in some other seasons, but sufficiently so as to give
Cornell the victory. The score was 24—0 in favor of Cornell.
ANNAPOLIS— WEST POINT.
Once more the two arms of the service met before invited
guests on the grounds of the University of Pennsylvania, and
after a contest in which Daly, the former Llarvard captain, was
the bright particular star, West Point won by the score of 11 — 5.
Daly kicked a drop-kick for West Point in the first half, scoring
five points, and in the second half received the kick-off on his
five-yard line and ran the entire length of the field for a touch-
down, which was easily converted and gave the Army their addi-
tional 6 points.
Both teams played better than usual. There were fewer mis-
plays and the general work was of a higher order. The Navy
scored 5 points, but could not offset the brilliant work of Daly.
COLUMBIA— CARLISLE.
It is getting to be an old s'.ory the case with which Columbia
serves up the Carlisle Indians as a Thanksgiving feast in New
York. This last year it was even more one-sided than usual,
but Carlisle battled bravely and finally sr.ccccdcd in scoring 12
points. Columbia had, however, by this time run up 40 points,
which was the largest score the "Blue and White" made this
season.
Southern and Western foot ball is covered in separate chap-

SPALDING'S OFFICIAL FOOT BALL GUIDE. 123
Foot Ball in the Middle West
By Chas. H. Kilpatrick, Graduate Manager of Athletics, University of Wisconsin.
The foot ball season of 1901 ended in the West as in the
previous year, with the question of the championship unsettled,
two teams, Michigan and Wisconsin, claiming first honors,
neither of them being able to substantiate their claims in a con-
clusive manner, but the partisan followers of each institution
figuring out a championship title, each to his own satisfaction by
the use of comparative scores. To the non-partisan follower of
the sport — if that claim can be made by anyone — such a method
does not meet with favor, and any fair-minded person knows that
the method is a very inaccurate one. Wisconsin, by defeating
Minnesota and Chicago by decisive scores, was a natural claim-
ant for the championship. Michigan disposed of her opponents
in easy fashion, having had the best team in the history of the
institution, and she was likewise as strong a claimant as Wiscon-
sin, and it is to be regretted that Michigan did not meet either
Minnesota or Wisconsin and thus settle the much mooted cham-
pionship question.
It will be gratifying to know that the schedule of games for the
coming season has been so arranged that all of the strong teams
of the West will meet each other, and the uncertainty as to the
bestov/al of first honors at the end of the season will be removed.
One of the most noticeable things in the western foot ball
history of the past year is that the general progress of western
teams toward the eastern standard of excellency continued, and
while the average western team is probably not as well versed
in the science of the game as the teams in the East, it is safe
to say that had either Michigan or Wisconsin been able to meet
any of the strong teams in the East, they would have proved
themselves in no wise inferior. The contests between eastern

and western elevens of the past five years has demonstrated that
the much-vaunted supremacy of the East is more imagined than
real. The barrier of sentiment separating the East and the West
is gradually breaking down and the day is not far distant when
there will be at least one big game each season by which lines
can be drawn in a general way comparing the East and West.
Along this same line it is to be noticed that the game is being
played more scientifically each year by the smaller colleges of the
West, due largely to the fact that more attention is being paid
to the sport and men hired to coach who have served their terms
under the greatest foot ball men of the time. A good example
of this development is to be found in the team which represented
Nebraska last year. Nebraska had never done anything particu-
larly worthy of note until Booth of Princeton took their team in
charge, and with excellent material, typical of the West, devel-
oped a team that gave Wisconsin their hardest game of the season.
In the style of play used in the West during the past season,
the tendency toward the straight consistent foot ball of the old
school has been very marked, and it is safe to assume that within
the next few years all the large teams of the West will be playing
practically the same style of game, the system of the various
coaches differing only in the minor details. Trick plays and
fancy formations that work beautifully on paper have gradually
been abandoned, and instead of lying awake nights figuring out
new plays the up-to-date coach spends his time in perfecting the
old ones and teaching each man how to play his position scien-
tifically. This movement is certainly along the right lines, as it
is placing the game on a scientific basis where head work counts
more thai mere strength, and removes the objectionable feature
of the game. It is in the development of this side of the game
that the East is ahead of the West. With plenty of money to
spend for coaching, a corps of efficient graduate coaches is in
charge of an eastern team with the result that each member of the
eleven is thoroughly coached in all the fine points of the game by
a past grand master in the sport. In the West the instruction of
the whole team is left mostly to one man, with the result that he

has little time to instruct each man in the work of his own position,
trusting to the experience of the smaller games to prepare each
individual in the work of his own position for the championship
contests.
The system of graduate coaching has been tried by several of
the larger western institutions, but with disastrous efifect. We
have in the West to-day men with national reputations as players
and coaches, and their advent has proven conclusively that we
are not yet ready for the graduate system.
The season which is about to open promises to be a most
interesting one; from present indications all of the large institu-
tions will be represented by strong teams, and the results of
these games will be awaited with interest.
May the best team win.

Foot ball is distinctly the game of the Southern colleges. AH
that is needed is a more widespread knowledge of the down-to-
date spirit of the sport. Base ball is played and has its follow-
ing, and the South has furnished some good players, but there
is no great rivalry except of an inter-state sort. Track and
field sports have their following, but the interest and the per-
formers and the execution are lacking. The reason for this
has never been fully and satisfactorily explained, except it be
the climate. Rowing is acknowledged as a sport and has some

following, but few if any representative crews have ever come
to a big regatta from anywhere south of the city of Washington.
But foot ball, for some reason or other, is the adopted sport
of the South, and considering the meagre opportunities for
learning and developing it, the South is doing splendidly with
it and much better things are promised. The development of
the science of the game is. however, one of the things most
needed.
In speaking, of foot ball generally, in whatever publications
handling the subject, the game in the South is overlooked almost
entirely, and except for the newspapers of that section one
would suppose there were no such a thing as the great game
among the chain of academies, colleges and universities south
of Mason and Dixon's line.
In reality there is the liveliest kind of interest in the south-
land in the great Rugby game, and only a few of the teams in
the North would find it an easy matter to hold their own with
the crack "elevens" of the Sunny South. The fact that they
have so few opportunities — speaking of middle and extreme
South — of playing representative teams from the North is in a
measure the reason why the quality of their games is not better
known to followers of the sport, and especially to writers upon
the subject.
Most of the colleges have very large numbers of students, as
large as many of those of the North and West, and as a result
there is any quantity of material to select from. Gradually
these colleges are combining their own style of game with that
of their more experienced brethren of the North through the
introduction of the coach system supplied by graduates of Yale,
Princeton, Pennsylvania and others, who have developed energy,
strength and endurance and quickness of action in their charges.
EFFICIENT OFFICIALS HELP THE GAME.
The introduction, too, of well-known officials of the North has
had much to do with developing foot ball in the South. Their
knowledge of the fine points of the game, having at the finger

ends the rules of the sport, and the abihty to strictly and im-
partially enforce them, has been of considerable aid in the fur-
thering of the interests of the great game. Notable among these
officials who have earned a great reputation for excellent work
are Richard ("Broncho") Armstrong of Yale, and M. J. Thomp-
son, graduate manager of athletics at Georgetown University.
There is still lots of room for developing the sport and in-
creasing the interest therein. The spirit of rivalry is probably
more intense than in any other section, but the interest gen-
erally has been only of the kind which does not spread beyond
the walls or the campus of this or that institution. There has
been no move to bring -about a greater spread of interest among
the smaller institutions of learning, such as developing material
in high schools, academies and so on, from _which a college
could gradually draw for its material. This sort of interest has
in a large measure made it possible for Yale, Harvard and
others of : the big ones to constantly fill up their undergraduate
list with splendid material, which, "when needed, is drawn into
their annual squads and used as the exigencies of the team re-
quire. There is foot ball .. ijn . every little school, academy and
institution in the North. This sort of thing is needed in the
South, and the sooner it is put into operation the sooner will
there be a wider spread knowledge of the game.
individual style of game.
In many colleges an independent or individual style of the
game has ben developed, and in many instances it has proven
quite effective against the plan of game which competitors
using a more general formation cling to.
This is demonstrated especially in the game which Clemson
College, of South Carolina, plays, and consists in the ball being
passed from the centre to one of the ends and back again to
another end and then to a guard and so on, drawing the op-
posing team to the one side while the "Clemsons" are re-passing
and finally clearing the outside for an open run. It has no
"guards back" play. The style of play has mystified many a

CHAMI'IONSHIP OF THE SOUTH., -J'
■-■•., ^ ' '
While it is almost an impossibility- to "name a national cham-
pion in foot ball it is easily within the bounds of the possible to
arrive at a sectional or class championship, -such as, for- instance,
the games between the Naval and West Point Academies- or
between teams of the "big four" for intercollegiate honors. Upon
the same plan the championship of the South could be decided
in a series of games. Such a series of contests would probably
do more than anything else to develop and increase the interest
in the sport. There should be a series of games annually, which
the followers of the sport, just as in the series above named,
would crowd the grounds to witness. Some plan could be de-
vised which would decide the teams to represent the various
States to play in such a series.- Once agreed upon, these col-
leges could each year furnish the teams to play out a schedule
which would not only be profitable from a financial, but from a
foot ball point as well. _ \- ', ^ ^ ^-; •
No greater example than this can be furnished than, in the
former University of Virginia-Georgetown games. Their games
were annually, next to the Virginia-North Carolina game, the
great features of the season, on account of the rivalry; between
them and the splendid class of game put up by them. The un-
fortunate breaking off of the athletic relations between .Virginia
and Georgetown and the consequent discontinuance of foot ball
games between them is to be deplored. The teams were cen-
trally located and the result of their games had more .or. less
influence upon Southern foot ball.

These universities are undoubtedly the leaders in southern
athletics. The rivalry between them was always of the most
intense sort, and this culminated in the last game played, the
result of which brought about a feeling which unfortunately
caused the breaking off of relations between them. While the
gate receipts are looked upon as a secondary consideration in
contests of this sort, yet, neither university can help but feel
that the loss of receipts from their games — base ball and foot
ball — is material, and has the effect of very greatly shrinking
what was formerly a good balance on the right side of the
ledger.
The climax in the above foot ball drama came in the game
played November 17, 1901, on Georgetown Field. At the end
of the first half the score stood Virginia 11, Georgetown o.
In the last eight minutes of play, with the score, Virginia 16,
Georgetown 6, the latter team by a most wonderful effort, and
with a determination born of despair, and at the same time by
the most clever exhibition of team play, won out by the score of
17 to 16. Such an exhibition of foot ball as was put up by
Georgetown in the last moment of play, when the game seemed
hopelessly lost, has rarely been equalled in games played any-
where in recent years. It was the one game which called the
foot ball world's attention to the quality of the sport played in
this end of the South.
RIVALRY BETWEEN VIRGINIA TEAMS.
Georgetown was out of foot ball for nearly five years and
took it up again in 1897 and rapidly built up a team which was
as formidable in local foot ball as the one which before the
intermission made its presence felt in this vicinity. Since taking
up the game again it has met and defeated many fast teams,
principal among which was the University of Virginia. The
games between these teams were always regarded as the most
attractive of the Southern foot ball season.
The Georgetown management insists upon having bona fide
students on its team and above all also insists upon the clean

amateur standing of its players. It hopes in a year or two to have
a foot ball team which will be able to make as good a record for
winning as its base ball nines have earned in the past few years.
For sectional interest few games equal those between the
Virginia Polytechnic Institute and the Virginia Military In-
stitute. The teams arc well matched, the rivalry is intense and
the results of their annual games are watched with as much
mterest throughout their section as the whole country gives
to the Army and Navy game. The games between the Uni-
versities of Virginia and North Carolina were formerly great
drawing cards, but Virginia has growai so much stronger, and
wins with such regularity that North Carolina has lost heart
and almost despairs of ever winning from its great rival.
The University of Virginia team was one of the strongest, if
not the strongest, of last season's Southern teams. It played a
schedule of ten games, of which it lost two, one to Pennsylvania,
20 to 5, and the other to Georgetown University, its hottest rival,
17 to ]6. The schedule included games witli nearly all the best
teams in the South. It beat Sewanee. 22 to 5; the University of
North Carolina, 23 to 6, and Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 16 — o,
which latter beat Georgetown University 2)^ — 6. It defeated Vir-
ginia Military Institute 28 to o, while the latter was beaten by
Georgetown University by only 5 to o. Gallaudet lost to Virginia,
24 to o, in twenty-four minutes' play, while Georgetowm Uni-
versity lost to Gallaudet, 1.8 to 6. The rest of the teams were
beaten by overwhelming scores. The team is a heavy, fast one,
made up mostly of players who have had several years' expe-
rience. It promises to be stronger than ever this fall.
Washington and Lee University at Lexington, Va., has al-
ways made a great impression, not only for the clean game it
plays, but for the determined stand and good showing it made
against the stronger teams. It held the strong Virginia Poly-
technic Institute down to eleven points last season. Among its
coaches last year was the famous T. G. ("Doggie") Trenchard
of Princeton.

fast. Strong team and made a good showing on the season. It
held Georgetown down to a single touchdown and lost 5 to o
and beat Washington and Lee 46 to 6, but lost to University of
Virginia by 29 to o.
As already stated the Virginia Polytechnic Institute had one
of the strongest teams in the South last season. It had the
honor of having on its team none but bona fide students, and
individually and as a team, played so well that at least six of its
men were picked as members of all-Southern teams, and these
were Steele, centre; Abbot, right guard ; McCormick, right
tackle; Ware, right end^- Carpenter, right half-back (the last
four were picked by "Outlook") and Councilman, full-back.
Of these it will be seen that Messrs. Armstrong and Thompson,
the officials in nearly all of the Southern games, picked Ware
and Carpenter fen* the all-Southern team, and McCormick and
Councilman in addition to De Camp for the substitute all-
Southern "Eleven." I'he team lost only one game last season,
and that to Virginia. 16-0, which it is claimed was partly due to
having been cri{)pled by Georgetown the Saturday before when
the latter lost ^-^ to 6. The latter was V. P. I.'s most striking vic-
tory, for Georgetown had just tied the Naval Academy, and
had afterward defeated Virginia 17 to 16. V. P. I. scored 115
points against ,^,^ for it^ ojjponents on tlie season's schedule, and
well deserves the liigli rank it holds in Sontherti foot ball.
'Sewanee, the l'ni\-ersit> of the South, at Sewanee, Tenn., had
a light team. l)iir it made a great impression upon many of its
lieavier rivals, li played the strong Vanderbilt. College o to 0 ;
beat University of Georgia 47 to o ; beat Mooney 23 to o. and
scored a goal against University of Nashville 39 to 6, and scored
a touchdown on \'irginia, which latter won 22 to 5.

as Strong as usual and still it won ever)'- game of the nine
played except those against Virginia, and Clemson College. It
scored against Virginia, 6 to 23. and ran up 10-22 against
Clemson. The 1902 team promises to be a strong one, as with
last year's experience to go on, it will play its usual game.
One of its former crack players, Graves, is full-back on Naval
Academy team.
The University of Tennessee was regarded as one of the
strongest of last season's Southern teams. It tied Clemson
6-6, and scored a touchdown on Nashville 5-16, and held Uni-
versity of Kentucky down to 0-6, and Vanderbilt 0-22, while
Georgetown of Kentucky was beaten 12-0, and Alabama was
tied 6-6.
One of the pluckiest teams in the South was that of the Uni-
versity of Georgia. It was at the same time the lightest team
that took the gridiron last season, the average being 145 pounds,
and yet with all this handicap, including an almost entirely new
line up, the players kept up their nerve and made a good fight
against the big teams, by whom, of course, they were beaten,
failing to score against either Vanderbilt or Sewanee, each of
whom scored 47-0. The Georgians scored a touchdown against
Clemson, 5-29, and goose-egged Auburn, its greatest rival, 0-0.
The team's scientific and plucky work is commendable and
reflects credit upon A. H. Patterson, its physical instructor, and
coach W. A. Reynolds of Princeton.
ALABAMA AND TENNESSEE.
The University of Alabama is gradually getting into line
and will sooner or later make a showing in its section. It held
Alabama Polytechnic Institute down to 17-0, and this is regarded
as a good showing, as the Polytechnic team ha-: been regularly
victorious over the University, and past season's score was the
best the latter has ever made against it. This is also the first
season that the University has made such a good showing
against Tennessee, which it tied 6-6, and the University of
Georgia 0-0.

The University of Nashville, Tenn., has quietly gone along
and built up foot ball that told for itself in the scores its team-
rolled up and the manager has the pleasure of recording the fact
that his team lost but one game last season, and that to Vander-
bilt lo-o, which is a remarkable showing in itself. Its most bril-
liant victory was gained over Sewanee, which' for some ' years
claimed the championship. Nashville won by the overwhelming
score of 39-6. It tied Texas on her own field 5-5 and beat Uni-
versity of Tennessee 16-5.
Vanderbilt University of Nashville, Tenn.,, had one. of the
lightest and at the same time one of the fastest teams in the
South. It lost but one game during the season, and that to
Washington University of St. Louis ii-io, and in no other
game was it scored against, rolling up a total of 176 to 11 points
on the season. Its most signal victory, and a surprise at that,
was the one gained over the University of Nashville lo-o on
Thanksgiving Day. Before that Nashville had defeated Sewanee
39 to 6, and the latter had played Vanderbilt to a standstill. It
was simply another evidence that weight is not everything in
foot ball. Nashville had many pounds advantage over Vander-
bilt, but the latter with its light weights had quick execution.
Edgerton, who was captain and played full-back and half-back,
has appeared in several of the all-Southern teams, and has few,
if any, equals at line bucking. The team was in the hands of
W. H. Watkins, Princeton, head coach, and M. P. O'Connor,
assistant coach.
South Carolina College won three out of the seven games
played last season, making a very fair showing for a light team.
It scored against University of Georgia 5-10.
PICKING ALL-SOUTHERN TEAMS.
Among the best posted men on Southern foot ball are M. J.
Thompson, graduate manager of athletics at Georgetown Univer-
sity, and Richard Armstrong, formerly one of Yale's great
foot ball and all-around men. So great is their reputation for
knowledge of the game, and ability to enforce rules, that not only

do they officiate in the majority of big Southern games, but their
services are in demand in the North. These men are well
equipped to name an all-Southern team, because they saw all
the players in action, and their judgment should be given con-
siderable weight on this account.
After diligent study of the matter, weighing carefully all the
principal players in each department of the game, these gentle-
men decided upon an all- Southern and a substitute team, and
their selection has met with general approval, and the writer
having a knowledge of many of the players will interpose no
objection to the team selected except in one or two instances.
And these arc, that he would put Edgerton of \'andcrbilt Uni-
versity at left half instead of Coleman of Virginia, and would
put McCormick of V. P. T. at right tackle in ])lace of Bennct.
Steele of V. P. T. at centre is deserving of consideration. He
has played the game for several years, and was always to be
depended upon for good all-around work. I)e Camp of X. P. T.
and Sullivan of Georgetow^n are the e(iual in every way of Tut-
wiler of Virginia, and it is a tcxss which of these is the
better qualified to be named for an all-Southern team at (piarter-
back.
The teams selected by the officials named are those which
appear at the head of this article.
The majority of the teams in the section under consideration
are well-seasoned and experienced and the coming fall should
witness the greatest foot ball season the game has ever had in
the South.

Rules for 1902
The changes in the rules this season have not been extensive. As
will be seen from going over these alterations, the real methods of
play are not materially affected by them, save that (see Rule 13a) the
two sides change goals after a try at 'goal from a touchdown or a suc-
cessful field-kick goal, the effect of the amendments will not be vital.
For instance, the change in Rule 3, section {l>\ is merely an ex-
planation, as it has always been the rule in the way that this section
now makes clear.
The same is true of Rule 13, section (r). There has been nothing
in the rule to prevent the side running the ball out from their own
goal providing a touchback had not been made, or, in other words,
the ball had not been declared dead. But there was some misunder-
standing on this point last season, and it, therefore, seemed best to
clearly define the right of the side to carry the ball out after it had
been declared dead.
Rule 16, section (/^), is a decided change, although how much it
will affect the play only a season's work can determine. Instead of
loss of the ball, the side offending loses five yards. This penalty is
considered less severe, as it gives the side an opportunity to still
make its distance.
Rule 18, section {c), is merely an explanation of the rule as it
stands, and makes clear the fact that with one player outside the end
and one player back, that is, further than five yards back, the rule is
complied with. There had been some doubt on this matter, although
the above was the customary ruling.
Rule 22, section (a), brings up a play which is seldom seen, and
has not been made use of to any extent for several years, that is,
bounding the ball in from the side of the field and then kicking it.
It is not likely to become any more used this season than of late
years, as the'forwards of the opposing side now get down with such
rapidity that a man has very little chance of bounding the ball in and
kicking it safely. Also, as there had been some doubt as to whether
the man bounding the bail in must wait until his own men get back

''so as to be on side, and this evidently would entirely take away the
advantage of the play, it has been stated in the rule that his own side
need not be on side when he thus puts the ball in play.
Rule 27, section (/), has several alterations made with the inten-
tion of still further preventing side line coaching and trespassing on
the field by water carriers, or people not properly admitted there. It
has been the habit of the water carriers to run on to the field as soon
as time was called and sponge off the players. And it has been more
or less believed that these assistants carried out instructions to the
players which was a privilege of the rule. The new wording puts it
in the hands of the umpire to prevent this, and to see that the field
of play is kept clear.
Rule 28, section (a), has a further alteration from lo yards to 5
yards, but it will probably not materially affect the play. In the
same rule a reference is made to the special ruling of Rule 16, sec-
tion {d).
In Rule 28, section (d), as well as in section (/), the rules are
altered to give the opponents 5 yards for the offence, the number of
the down, and the point to be reached remaining the same.
Rule 28, section (/&)— Note— provided formerly that if offended side
declined to accept the penalty, having made a run in spite of the
offence by their opponents, they were entitled to but 15 yards, no
matter how far the ball had been carried. It was the general belief
and feeling of all the players that this was a hardship, and it was de-
termined to allow the side thus making a run 25 yards if the run was
that distance or longer. The object in not allowing the entire dis-
tance gained by the run, if it were for instance 50 yards, is that the
referee's whistle might, in some cases, prevent the opponents from
tackling.
The addition of section (/) to the penalties is merely a repetition
of previous rules.
The omission in Rule 29, second paragraph, is caused by the inclu-
sion of part of the rule in the new part of Rule 27, section (/). The
only other addition is the instruction to the timekeeper that he is to
start his watch, not when the referee blows his whistle, but when the
ball is put in play.

How to Equip a Foot Ball Team
The most essential point in starting a foot ball team is to have
every player properly clothed, and following
is a list of the principal articles worn by the
leading university and college teams through-
out the country :
Spalding's Foot Ball Jackets are made of
a special heavy white duck, sewed with the
best and strongest linen, and hand-made
eyelets. Those with sleeves cost 75 cents ;
without sleeves, 60 cents.
Proper pants to
be worn are the No.
OCR, which are
made of imported
moleskin, very light
weight, padded hips
and knees, with
reeds on the thighs,
thus preventing in-
jury to the hips and
knees and doing
away with injuries
to the thighs so otfen
called " c h a r 1 i e
horse." Price of
these is $4.50 per pair. A good light weight pair, No. OMR, is
made of moleskin, padded hips and knees, with reeds, same as No.
OCR, and retail for $3.00. The canvas pants, No. iP, are made of
good white duck, well patlded throughout, and sell for $1.50, while a
pair made of heavy drill, well padded. No. XP, can be bought for
80 cents.

The accompanying cut illustrates Spald-
ing's 'Varsity Union suit. This consists of
their special 'Varsity foot ball jacket and
pants connected by a substantial elastic
belt. The price of this complete is $5.00.
The jacket and pants can be bought sep-
arately, however, the jacket (sleeveless)
90 cents each, and the pants, $2.00. These
suits are made scientifically correct, of the
lightest and strongest brown canvas,
specially manufactured for these goods.
The hips and knees are properly padded
and the thighs have cane strips. An im-
portant feature of the jacket is an elastic
gusset in the armholes in the spot where the
players know it is required.
Sweaters are a needed
adjunct of every foot
ball player's outfit.
Spalding's No. A Inter-
collegiate Sweater, which is the official sweater
worn by all the leading university and college
teams, is made of pure Australian lamb's wool
and has been found indispensable as a prevent-
ative for taking cold. It retails for |6.oo. The No. B heavy weight
sweater retails for $5.00, and the No. C, standard weight, for $4.00.
In jerseys, a very popu-
lar garment worn with
sleeveless jackets is Spald-
ing's No. loPX, which is
manufactured from hard
twisted worsted of good
quality and closely woven.
It is made with a solid
color body with alternate

The No. 3-0S stockings
are made of heavy ribbed
wool especially woven for
playing this game. They
come in a variety of alter-
nate colors to suit the
colors of the different
teams. These stockings
retail for $1.75 per pair.
The same grade in plain
cost 25 cents less. The
No. iRS stockings, heavy-
weight, also have alternate colors and retail for $

and 3R come in heavy, medium and lighter weight, and sell for $1.00,
80 and 60 cents respectively. A pair of cotton stockings can be
bought for 25 cents.
Experience has shown that
the matter of shoes is one of the
most essential parts of the uni-
form. Spalding's No. A2-0
black kangaroo calfskin shoe,
hand made, with circular rein-
force on sides, retails iur$7.50.
Thry also make the same model
in a lighter weight for the same
price. Their No. A-M shoe is
made of the finest russet calf-
skin, with Murphy ankle brace,
and retails for $6.75. A popu-
lar shoe is the No. A-2 Club
Special Shoe which retails for
$4.50. In this latter grade they also liave a shoe called the Sprinting

" backs," It being a light weight shoe, and retails for $4.50, the same
price as the No. A-2 shoe. The No. A-3 Amateur Special Shoe
is made of russet leather, and retails for $3.50.
All of Spalding's shoes this year are fitted with their new style
cleats, which have been used with great success by leading players.
In fact, all of their orders from the leading college teams insist on
the new style cleats.
The Murphy Ankle Brace mentioned
in a preceding paragraph on foot ball
shoes is a contrivance designed by
M. C. Murphy, the famous Yale trainer,
to prevent turning of the ankle. It does
not interfere with the free action of the
latter, and although adding nothing
materially to the weight of the shoe,
is strong enough to properly protect the ankle against serious injury
The price is 50 cents.
Shin guards are a very nec-
essary portion of a foot ball
player's outfit. Spalding's
No. 30 style, shown herewith,
is made of heavy sole leather,
corrugated, and molded to
shape, but flexible so that
they will conform to any size
leg. The price is $1.50. Their No. 40 style is
made of a specially prepared fibre, and molded to
form, and is very light and durable. The price
of No. 40 is $1.35 per pair. Canvas shin guards
can be bought for 50, 75 and 90 cents, and a pair
of Moleskin Guards for $1.15.
The elastic belt

stretches with length of body and may be
attached to jacket and pants, thus form-

Head Harness
A good belt to wear is No. 728,
russet or black, which retails for 50
cents. A cheaper quality can be bought
for 25 cents.
In the matter of head har-
ness there is quite a variety
to select from. The best is
undoubtedly Spalding's No.
60, which is made of the
eaviest oak tanned leather
and ventilated. It protects
the entire crown of the
head, breaks the force of
any blow received, and
while it is the lightest head
harness made it is at the same time the strongest. The price of No.
60 Head Harness is $5.00. The next best is
Spalding's No. 50 Head Harness, which has a
heavy sole leather crown, ventilated, and witli
improved ear pads. This is one of the most po]>
ular head harnesses made, and is used by many (.f
the leading colleges through-
out the country. The No. 50
sells for $4.00. Spalding's
Head Harness No. 30 was de-
signed by H. B. Conibear, No. 50 Head Harness,
trainer at the University of Chicago. The crown
piece is made of oak tanned leather, molded to
shape; the ear pieces are well padded and the
No. 30 Head Harness harness complete gives ample
protection to all parts. The price of the No. 30 i ;
$3.00. Spalding's No. 35 Head Harness is made
of tan leather and thoroughly padded with wool
half an inch thick, with an elastic to go under the
chin, and is adjustable to any size head. It is a
thoroivgh protection to the crown and back of the
head and also to the ears. This sells for $2.50. Nt). 35 Head Harness.

Something new in shoulder guards is

leather pads for the shoulders. Thev are
made of heavy leather, well padded, and

^v_ j^ ^^^^^355^^ elbow and knee pads, they afford absolute
protection. They cost $4.00.
Players in buying pads to be
attached to their jerseys are
advised to get Spalding's leather
covered pads, which can be
attached to any part of a jersey,
especially adapted for the shoulders and
They are covered with tan leather, lined with heavy
drilling and filled with pure curled hair. These pads, for either the
shoulder or elbow, cost 50 cents for each one.
The Morrill Nose Guard is made of the finest
rubber that can be procured, and no metal or
wire is used in its construction ; it is the only
nose guard which to-day meets all the require-
ments of the game. It also protects the teeth as
well as the nose and retails for $1.50.
Spalding's rubber
mouthpiece is made
of best quality Para
rubber. It gives perfect protection to the
mouth and teeth, and sells for 25 cents.
P'oot ball players often have need of a
good bandage, either for the wrist, knee,
elbow or shoulder, and for their guidance
we illustrate a few of the
most popular kinds. The
shoulder cap bandage is
made in botli cotton and
silk thread, the former
retailing for $4 00 and the<
latter for $5.50. The knee, elbow and

an'Lle bandages are also made in cotton and silk thread, and sell
$1.50 for cotton and |2.oo for silk
thread. The wrist bandages cost 75
and $1.00 for silk.
A bandage that is
often used is one composed of threads of
rubber completely covered. It is light, porous,
aud easily applied. The pressure
can be applied wherever necessary,
following all depressions or swel-
lings with folding and unvarying
uniformity. One of these 2>^ inches
wide and 5 yards long (stretched)
costs 75 cents, while one of the same length, 3
inches wide, costs $1.00.
Spalding's No. 85 Elbow Pads are
made of solid leather molded to form and
lined with felt, and retail for go cents
each. The No. 90 Knee Pads are also
/'*'*;:i;;;^2^ solid leather and retail for $1.15 each.
/ The Hackey Patent Ankle
/ Support is highly recom-
mended by all the coaches as the best of its
kind, and prevents many injuries to the
ankles. It relieves pain immediately and
cures a sprain in a remarkably short time.
The price is $1.00 per pair.
.^^^^fB^ The No. 5 "Bike" Supporter has been conceded
I^JBHHH by all as the only jockey strap suspensory. It is
ra ^H ■ clean, comfortable and porous, and is made in three
11 ^B M sizes. The price is 75 cents.

sories are the Spalding, which sells

to material used, and the Old Point

sary part of the equij)-
ment. They are made in
several styles, and cost 25
and 50 cents each, depend-
ing upon material used.
The cut shown herewith illustrates a desirable accom-
panyment to the foregoing supporters. It is called a lower
abdomen protector, and is made of heavy wire, well pad-
ded and covered with chamois. It costs $1.50
Spalding's Combination Foot Ball
Glove and Wrist Supporter is some-
thing new in this line. It is the inven-
tion of H. B. Conibear, trainer at the
University of Chicago. The back of the hand is protected by a piece
of sole leather, and any strain to the wrist is avoided by the leather
strap supporter which forms the upper part of the glove. It is made
for either hand and costs $1.00.
For those who do not wish such an
elaborate wrist supporter as the above,
there are leather wrist supporters made
in tan or black leather, those with a
single buckle costing 25 cents and
those with a doul)le strap and buckle
costing 35 cents. Those
with lacings, as shown herewith, in tan or
black, cost 25 cents.
The Spalding Official
No. J5 foot ball needs no comment, and is
known throughout the country as the
"official" ball. It is used by all the uni-
versities and colleges throughout the
United States. It should always be used
in practice as well as in regular games, as
the players can thus accustom themselves to its "feel." It retails
for I4.00. There should always be a few extra balls on hand.

The Way to Tackle Properly.
One oi the most essential things in the game of foot ball is that the
player snould know how to tackle properly, thereby preventing in-
juries and making himself
one of the most- valuable
men on the team. This
can only be acquired by
practice, and the Spalding
Tackling Machine with
t h e McMaster improve-
ment has been accepted as
I lie only true method of
teaching the players how
to tackle. The tackling
machine has been in use
for several years and is al-
PLAVER GETTING READY TO TACKLE DUMMY most iudi spcnsable for the
training and coaching of the team. The new tackling improvement
was invented by Mr. John McMaster, trainer of the Harvard team,
and was used all last year
by them with a very suc-
cessful ending, and will be
used by Yale and all the
larger universities and col-
leges this coming season.
Those who noticed the
tackling of the Harvard
team last year will agree
that there was something
that had given them the
ability to tackle in the
fierce fashion that they
did, and no doubt it can

Spalding's Foot Ball Ankle Brace
The brace is made of two pieces of finely tempered
steel, joined at the point shown by white spot almost
in the centre of the cut. The brace is not visible, as
it is placed between the lining and the leather. It
absolutely prevents turning of the ankle, and has
been most thoroughly tested in actual play by the
Yale team. It does not interfere with the free action
of the ankle, and although adding nothing materially
to the weight of the shoe, is strong enough to prop-
erly protect the ankle against serious injury. Can
be put in your shoes by any shoemaker.

Rubbing
Stuff
Nearly all foot ball players have
trouble in securing rubbing stuff
that answers all the purposes re-
quired, and, as a general rule,
preparations are used that are not
up to the standard. We have had
XLCR
Witch Hazel
tested and know that it is, without question, the best rubbing
stuff on the market to-day. It has been tried by many promi-
nent players who pronounce it the best ever bottled. Besides
having advantages for immediately removing stiffness and
sprains, it is likewise generally used for bruises, cuts and stiff-
ness of the muscles of all kinds. It is manufactured for us by
the International Witch Hazel Distilling and Bottling Co., of
New York.
Orders for individual bottles are supplied by A. G.
Spalding & Bros, at their different stores.
For trainers at colleges, schools or clubs, we quote the follow-
ing prices, and we pay the express or freight charges:

The Spalding League Ball has been the
Official Ball of the National League for
over a quarter of a century, and must be
used in all games. It is also used exclusively
by all the leading colleges and athletic clubs.
When buying athletic goods always insist upon seeing the Spalding trademark
and do not be persuaded to accept sonaething offered as " just as good,"
The game of Field Hockey,
which was only introduced in
America last spring, already bids
fair to become the premier sport
among the students of the vari-
ous women's colleges of this
country. It is now being played
at Vassar, Smith, Radcliffe.Wel-
lesley and Bryn Mawr. At one
college alone five hundred mem-
bers enrolled in the first hockey
club, and the interest of the
players has never flagged from the f.rst ga .sc. I . is not exclusively a woman's
game, however, and in England, the home of the sport, it is played by both men
and women, and mixed clubs are very popular. During last December alone 549
important matches were reported there, and it is proving a strong rival to foot ball
among the men and boys. Matches are played not only between the various schools
and colleges, but between elevens representing England, Ireland, Scotland and
Wale's, and international ones are participated in by players from France, Germany
and Belgium. To those in need of vigorous and healthful out-of-doors exercise,
the game is recommended highly. Its healthful attributes are mainfold and the in-
terest of player and spectator alike is kept active throughout the progress of the
game. Practice will give to the player the wrist of a fencer and the accuracy of
a golfer, while the game, owing to the number engaged at a time, eleven on a side,
affords active participation to a great many. When better known here, it will no
doubt be played not alone at the colleges, but clubs will be formed and it will be
taken up by the men as well. Physical educators agree as to its value as an exercise,
and eventually it will prove one of our most popular autumn games. Expensive
paraphernalia is not required, and this fact will encourage many to take up the
game who otherwise might not care to do so.
A complete description of Field Hockey, illustrated with pictures showing points of
play; information for players, and the official rules, will be found in No. 154 of Spald-
ing's Athletic Library, which will be sent to any address upon receipt of 10 cents.
