Johnson of Vir- ginia Military Institute and Coxe of Vi Polytechnic, were two outstanding guards, Bennett of North Carolina, Marshall of Vir- ginia Military, Layd of West Virginia and Scott of Maryland will be remembered as dashing tackles. The great Southern ends were Simpkins of Sewanee and Finnegan of Georgetown. Roller of Virginia Military, was a brilliant quarterback, and to Devlin of Georgetown and Dabney of Virginia go the halfback honors. The famous fullback Walker of Virginia completes the All-Ssuthern team of 1900. A vital tactor in the development of the gridiron game at the first of the century was its spread to the high schools throughout America. Such games had been played before, but it was not until this time that foot ball became a recognized high school activity. The years prior to the World War marked the erection of the great concrete stadia, the “Minnesota shift” and an almost entirely new brand of foot ball. Reformers had been active, and the Committee on Rules held session after session during the Winter and Spring of 1910. In May of that year this committee handed out its new code of rules. The game was divided into quarters instead of halves. Crawling was forbidden. Teams were directed to change goals after quarters rather than after scores, as previously. Seven men of the offense were ordered to be on the line of scrimmage. * The rougl®P of receivers of forward passes was prohibited. Flying tackles, interlocked interference and pushing and butting the carrier were also banned. Ten‘yu,dl were made the necessary gain for four downs instead of five. new rules proved to be a bad “break” for foot ball ‘“dopesters” and the season of 1910 saw many of the favorites beaten by teams hitherto considered mediocre. Ursinus defeated Pennsylvania, Case tied Michigan and Oberlin did the same to Cornell, to mention only & few of the unexpected results of that year. Twenty years ago was a period of great in- dividual performances and many of the games 3 : tered side. 37 Spreads loosely. 40 Deserter. 41 Smudge of ink. 43 Of) of rose petals: var. 45 City in Oklahoma. 46 English author. 47 French Winter resort. 49 Sheets of glass. 1 H EB:;EE 828 ~ | ] were determined by the flashy work of a Ione player. Like all other sports, foot ball suffered dur- ing the war. Many of the outstanding players left school to join the colors and schedules were suspended or upseit. But after the armistice the game came back stronger than ever, and by 1920 there were 450 tollege foot ball teams, 6,000 school elevens and some 7,500,000 spectators avidly awaiting the Autumn games. The forward pass became the most sensa- ~ tional maneuver of the game and strategists vied with each other to invent new and startling variations of this mode of aerial at- tack. A different style of team play than used in former years came into being. - Each man became a cog in the machine and his useful- ness depended solely on how well he filled the position assigned him. This system of team play developed until today we witness games managed almost en- tirely from the sidelines by astute coaches who not only want to win games, but want to win them in a dramatic manner. This Was Some Pony. Souz pecple may not believe this story, but nevertheless it was told as truth to the State historian of Montana, where the event was supposed to have occurred. It involves a broncho pony which seemed to be king of all bronchos so far as intelligence was concerned. The events are vouched for by Horace Brewster, an old-timer of the ranges of Montana. Brewster said it happened back in the early 80s on the big range south of here. The pony belonged to a half-breed Indian cowbdy, who boasted .the animal was the greatest roping mount in the West. 8o, showing off one day, the breed cowboy roped a 2-year-old steer, a “bad actor,” and chased it down the main street of the range town and up in front of a saloon. There the breed threw the steer, snubbed the lariat around the pommel of the saddle, coolly dismounted, and entered the saloon, leaving his horse to manage the steer while he imbibed at the bar. Meanwhile, whenever the steer moved .one way. or another in an attempt to regain his feet, the horse swung with the frantic animal and circumvented its efforts to rise. Brewster says the cowboy stayed in the saloon long enough to get drunk, and that the horse held the steer on the ground all that time—probably two hours —for it took about that long to get drunk in those days of better liquor, so the story goes. ‘When the cowboy finally came staggering out of the saloon the horse was still holding the steer for the long count. The tipsy cowboy was helped into the saddle, unwound his lariat in a fumbling manner from the pommel, twitched the loop free from the steer’s horns and hooves, and rode away amid loud cheers “for the horse™ from the crowd of cowmen that had gathered to watch a feat they never had seen before.
