Two ancient and honored educational institutions
meet here today for the first time in football.
The game as an intercollegiate sport dates back
for more than forty years at both Virginia Military
Institute and Tulane University but because of geographical
distances, the teams have not met before
on the gridiron.
Today, with modern transportaton reducing
distances to a brief week-end trip, this great school
of the Virginia Valley and Tulane of the "Deep
South" are ready to kick-of in what promises to
be a most enjoyable contest.
V. M. 1., Stonewall Jackson's Old School, and
Tulane, both are of relatively the same age. The
"West Point of the South" had its beginning in
1839, which was just five years after Tuhne's
start.
Tulane today salutes V. M. 1., and its capable
superintendent, Major General John Archer
Lejeune.
•••
The V. M. I. colors are Red, White and Yellow,
signifying the three bramches of the service represented
at the Cadet School-Artillery, Infantry,
and Cavalry.
•••
Major Blandy B. Clarkson, Director of Athletics
at V. M. 1., was the coach of the original "Flying
Squadron." That was the team of 1920 which
was undefeated, beating the University of Pennsylvania,
among others.

WE VOTE "NO"
Mr. Howard Jones, the widely known coach of
the University of Southern California Trojans, has
come forward with suggestions for a change in the
football scoring system.
Mr. Jones questions whether there is yet a proper
balance between ofensive and defensive football,
and, in connection with this believes "there can be
some experimenting done without radically changing
any fundamental rules of the game."
Quoting the Trojan coach:
"It seems to me that the one thing that has
never been given enough thought and consideration
is the increased difficulty an ofensive team encounters
as it nears an opponent's goal line.
"I have always believed that any team which can
carry the ball to the ten or fifteen yard line should
deserve some credit even though they don't make a
touchdown."
With that thought m mind, Mr. Jones ofers the
following suggestions:
First-Eliminate the try for goal after touchdown,
which he points out has never been a very
satisfactory method of deciding a game.
Second-If a team crosses the I 0 yard line, permit
them to score point; if it continues and
crosses the 5 yard line, permit them to score 2
additional points; if it finally crosses the goal line,
it would score 4 additional points. This would
make a total of 7 points, which amounts to the same
as the present system of scoring a touchdown and
goal. If a player, for instance, ran 25 yards for a
touchdown, he would automatically score seven
points.
Doubtless, there is merit to much that Mr. Jones
says. We agree with him thououghly that the extra
point has never proved a satisfactory method
of deciding the game.
Yet, we feel that the public would like to see the
game left alone for a few years. Give the average
fan a chance to learn the basic points of play before
trying any further innovations.
Perhaps, within a couple of seasons, it might not
be amiss to try such a radical change as suggested
but the touchdown and the extra point are just as
much a part of the game to the fan today as the
goal posts or the yard stripes.
Now, with the new rules encouraging lateral
passing to the point that it threatens to revolutionize
the ofensive style of football, it seems no
time for another radical change. Let's get the
newness of this "hocus pocus" first.
We do believe that the wide use of laterals will
be welcomed by the fans, at least for the time
being. It will provide many, many thrills this fall.

THE GRIDIRON ROUNDUP
King Football ascends the throne today.
His Maj e:-:ty reigns throughout Americasaluted
by tens of thousands of loyal subjects.
On all fronts, colleges and universities are
kicking of this afternoon in contests that
will give the first inkling of where the greatest
strength will be found to challenge for
sectional and national honors.
The Southeastern Conference has several
spirited battles scheduled for the day along
with a number of other engagements which
will prove but preliminary tests of power.
Your correspondent ofers his selections
on the outstandi:1.g games of the day as follows:
L. S. U.-RlCE-A night game at Baton
Rouge in which one of the most powerful
teams of the Southeastern Conference
tackles the potential championship outfit of
the Southwest. Bill Wallace, the great Owl
halfback, will vie with Abe Mickal, the fine
all-around Tiger back. It's an eenie-meenieminie-
mo afair. L. S. U. is the mo" but
without guarantees.
VANDERBILT-MISS. STATE - Here's
another that doesn't pack the color of the
Rice-L. S. U. engagement but which is
equally hard to "dope." V andy won last
year, 7 to 0. Both teams have new coaching
leaders and new touches to their ofense.
Vandy by a point or a touchdown.
V. P. I.-CLEMSON-Clemson seems shy
a punter and the Virginia Gobblers showed
virtually no ofense against Roanoke a week
ago. We are inclined to nod toward the
South Carolinians.
DA VIDSON-N. C. STATE-Hunk Anderson's
Wolves by a full length over the
Wildcats.

DUKE-SOUTH CAROLINA - Wallace
Wade will give the Gamecocks the "devil."
Meaning the Blue variety as grown in Durham.
ST. MARY'S-NEVADA-The Galloping

Slip Madigan will reap full revenge for that
9 to 7 defeat administered his team a year
ago.
CHICAGO-NEBRASKA-Clark Shaughnessy's
Maroons will be improved again but
they are up against one of the greatest teams
in the country this season when they encounter
Dana Bible's Cornhuskers. The
Nebraskans by a lap but not before they get
a few surprise jolts.
COLORADO-OKLAHOMA-Biff Jones'
Sooners to get of on the right foot but not
until after a real contest from the Buffaloes.
Colorado, it may be recalled, tied
Missouri and Kansas last fall and defeated
all others.
IDAHO-WASHINGTON-Our heart is
with Ted Bank as he sends the Idaho Vandals
to the post for the first time but we
must give the Huskies the nod. It'll take
time for Ted to put the Vandals in the Coast
Conference running due to the lack of seasoned
material and insufficient time for him
to install the single wing system as used by
Tulane.

English football was invented by accident; American
football was invented by plan.
On a stone in the courtyard of Rugby School in
England there is an inscription to a seventeenthcentury
scholar "who, with a line disregard for
the rules of the game, picked up the ball and ran
of with it, thereby inaugurating the distinctive
feature of the game."
Football, Rugby, or "rugger" as it was played
in England, is a game quite diferent from American
football. No team has possession of the ball.
When any man is tackled with the ball, it is put
into play by massing the "forwards" of both teams
in a circle around the ball and having them push
and shove until one of them can get close enough
to the ball to heel it out to one of his mates in the
backfield. No interference is run in Rugby. When
a man is about to be tackled, he either makes a
lateral or backward pass to one of his teammates
or else kicks the ball as far downlield as he can
and hopes that one of his mates who has been "on
side" will recover it.
Rugby was played, to a certain extent, in the
United States, and was reinstated on the Pacific
Coast in the early twentieth century when football,
it was felt, was becoming too dangerous a game. It
was a group of Coast-trained Rugby players who,
in 1920, won for the United States the Rugby
championship at the Olympic Games.
Way back in 1869, William S. Gummere, who
was at that time an under-graduate at Princeton,
felt that a new game somewhat similar to Rugby
should be invented, so he made up a few rules, got
William Leggett of Rutgers interested, and the pair
drilled teams representing their respective universities,
and the first game held on American soil
-or any other soil, for that matter-was played
November 16. Rutgers won.
This game, of course. did not resemble modern
football at all. But gradually it spread. Columbia
was the first recruit to the cause; next came Yale,
and, after playin an historic 0-0 tie with McGill
in a Rugby game, Harvard joined the ranks in 18 74.
Two years later, in 1876, at the instigation of
two Princeton men, delegations from all these
schools met and formed the American Intercollegiate
Football Association, which adopted the body
of rules which have been amended and re-amended
until they have reached their present state.
Many diferences have crept into the game since
its oriainal inception. At that time, the ball was
out into play by heeling from the "serum, " as in
F\.ugbv. At first, rules were changed so that the
team having nossession of the ball-and recogniging
possession of the ball was the great break which
American football made with Rugby-should put
it in play by having its "snaoper-back" heel the
ball back between his legs. Later the rules were
am.,nded to oermit him to use his hands, but he is
still given his choice of methods.
IS
Other quaint practices used to prevail in the old
days of football. Since only live yards were necessary
to make a first down, with three tries allo.wed,
and since forward passes were not then permitte d,
the main concentration used to be upon getting
beefv linemen who could shove back their opoonents
long enough to permit their burly fullback to
gain two yards. Mass plavs, flying wedges, interlocked
interference, and heavy players were all
characteristic of this period.
During this period, a small quarterback was held
to be a particularly important asset to a team.
These quarterbacks would often wear handles on
their trousers, and, with a couple of yards to go,
the quarterback would receive the ball from center,
lind himself picked up by the trousers by a couple
of his burly teammates and flung over the line of
scrimmage for the necessary yardage.
These tough, little quarterbacks were' also useful
in wet weather. The ball would be oassed to one
of the halfbacks who would brace himself, run up
the slope of the quarterback's back, step on the
broad back of his own guard, and leap over the
outstretched arms of the opposing linemen to the
other side of the scrimmage line, a couple of yards
to the good. Backfield men were equipped with a
ridge of escalator-cleats on their uniforms for this
purpose.
In these days, football helmets were not known,
and gridiron heroes used to keep clear of the barber
shop in order to acquire a thatch thick enough
to protect them from the blows of the game.
But football, having been born of restlessness,
could not stay static. Three important changes
were made in the rules of the game, all done with
the intention of opening up the game, reducing
danger to players and increasing the visibility for
spectators. These three most important changes
were changing the number of yards required from
live yards in three downs to ten yards in four
downs, forbidding interlocking interference and requiring
that all men remain stationary until the
ball has been put into play, and permitting the forward
pass.
Since the inauguration of these new rules, the
game has turned in a diferent direction. The emphasis
upon soeed, agility, and cleverness has become
greater, and the need for size and strength
has become less. Bv widening up the game, it has
made the work of the linemen on defense more diflicuit,
for threats of forward pl'lsses and sweeps
must keep the ends and secondary defense well
spread out. It has a greater appeal to the sports
fan. because he can see more of what is h"opening.
But football is still not a settled thinq. The rules
change each vear. Perhaps some day the rules and
practices of football today will appear as '!'rotesque
to our g-randchildren a• do the tales of quarterbacks
with handles on their pants to us.

IULES (Copyrighted Feature)
To-day's football game is one of speed,
power and finesse. Once upon a time it was
power alone. Once upon a time it was a
game of pure brute bullish strength. And
when the game was like that its dangers
were more appalling than its enthusiasts
would allow themselves to admit.
There is, of course, one tremendous
reason for the change that has come over
the game. That one reason is the playing
code.
Once upon a time the flying wedge was
the fashion note of the football day. This
was a bone-crushing, head-cracking weapon
and while it brought results it tended to
bring the game into disrepute because of the
injuries it caused. The rules were changed
and the wedge was outlawed.
It was not so very long ago that the pileup
was a part of every tackle. But like the
flying wedge this section of playing tactics
took a heavy toll in fractures, and even in
life. The rule-makers appreciated this and
now piling-up or any other unnecessary
roughness is strictly tabooed and severe
penalties are provided for infractions.
Examples like these could be continued
indefinitely but they serve to show the tremendous
importance of the code governing
the playing of the game. Oddly enough
these reforms which at first glance seemed
destined to rob the game of some of its
color served only to add to the beauty of
the great autumn sport.
For two years now, the playing rules have
been left essentially unchanged. The rulesmakers
have clarified some of the phraseology
in the code, but there has been no important
alteration since the close of the 1 9 3 3
season.
There is insufficient space here to make
even a casual summary of the rules of the
game, but it's interesting to consider two or
three of them.
For example, the one rule which leads to
the greatest diference of opinion is the one
governing the receiving of a forward pass.
22
It should be remembered that the player of
the ofensive team who is eligible to receive
a pass, has the right of way over a defensive
player. Thus if there is bodily contact between
the receiver and the defensive player,
the latter is automatically in the wrong. The
pass is considered complete at the point
where the foul occurred and a first down is
declared.
One of the least understood rules is the
one covering a kicked ball. Confusion on
this point can be avoided if the spectator
(and player) will always remember that a
member of the kicking side cannot, under
any circumstances, advance the ball. If you
are on the side which kickt;d you can recover
a fumble by a player of the receiving
side, but the ball is dead at the point of recovery.
It is amazing to know how many
players don't understand this rule.
The most frequently violated rule is the
one governing ofside play. Besides, this
rule, or violations of it, constitute one of the
major headaches for the coach. While the
rule carries a penalty of only five yards, and
often is relatively unimportant in the early
part of the game, its violations at climatic
moments often make the diference between
winning and losing.
The one section of the rules on which
even the more erudite followers of the game
are not always clear, is the one governing
the safety. One fundamental which should
be borne in mind is that a safety occurs
only if the impetus which sends a ball over
the goal line originates with the team defending
that goal. This could occur on a
bad pass from center, on a blocked kick,
an ordinary fumble or a pass which falls incomplete
behind the goal line. One play
which is especially confusing is this: A forward
pass, from near one's own goal line is
batted back by a member of the team on
defense and the ball rolls back over the
goal line. Such a play is a safety, despite
the fact that the impetus which sent the ball
over the goal line came from the opposite
team.
