0 Thirteen immortals played that great
game against Colgate's Red Raiders last Saturday
at the Yankee Stadium.
e They brought home to New Orleans one
of the greatest victories ever scored over an
Eastern opponent.
e Given only an outside chance of upsetting
the Little Giants of the Chenango Valley,
a team boasting an uncrossed goal line
in sixteen consecutive games and unbeaten
since 19 31, the Green Wave rolled unfalteringly
to a clean cut, 7 to 0 victory.
e It was a great inspirational team that
Coach Ted Cox sent to the field. Captain
Floyd "'Little Preacher" Roberts led in the
sweep that sent Colgate down to defeat.
Roberts was a demon on defense, a raging
riot on ofense and a galloping gridiron
ghost on that long, 76-yard run to the winning
touchdown. He also kicked the extra
point to cement the victory.
e Roy Ary and Bob Simons played the entire
game at tackles and did a great job.
Their work could not have been improved
on any football field. Charlie Calhoun
and Bill Schroeder were equally as efective
at guards. Dick Hardy and Charlie Kyle
were there all the route at ends.
• Homer Robinson came into his own at
center. "Robby" played as great a game
as any Wave pivotman ever turned in. His
fierce tackling in backing up the line on defense
was perfection. His passing of the
ball was a symphony.
• Buck Cheeves, one of the officials, was
quoted after the game as declaring that John
McDaniel's quarterback play was as fine
as he had ever witnessed.
e Cheeves also added that McDaniel's
tackling was the finest he had seen this year.
• Little Monk Simors' kicking was certainly
the best seen on a Tulane team in years.
He was kicking out of bounds in the "cof-s
fin" corner of the field with regularity and
reeled of two quick kicks that were a bit of
artistry. Joe Loftin's play at fullback was
outstanding.
e» The two substitutes, Bucky Bryan and
Stanley Lodrigues played jam-up football
while they were in the game.
• • •
• Earl Sparling, who gave Tulane the name
of "Green Wave" back a number of years
ago when be was a student at the institution,
was at the game. Sparling, now on the
editorial staf of the New York World Telegram,
is well known in New York for his
book depicting the life of lvar Kreuger, the
Swedish match king.
• • •
e Charles "Buck" O'Neill, sports writer of
the New York Evening Journal, is a great
booster of Louisiana. O'Neill spent two
springs at New Orleans when the Yankees
trained here, and writes about the great
cooking of Louisiana at every opportunity.
• • •
e Paul Kiefer of the New York Evening
Post, an alumnus of William and Mary, was
greatly interested in the Green Wave and
familiar with the traditions and history of
the University.
• • •
• Jimmy Powers of the New York News and
his staf have a weekly argument on Thursdays
during the footbalJ season as they
make their gridiron forecasts on Southern
games.
• They claim that the teams in the Southeastern
Conference are apparently so well
balanced that they are the hardest in the
country to forecast with any real hope of
success.

play was one of the highspots of the Tulane-Colgate game last Saturday.

Mississippi Day
Today is Mississippi Day at New Orleans.
Thousands of visitors from our neighboring
state are here to make it a great
occasion and see their football favorites
battle the Tulane Green Wave.
President Hugh Critz of Mississippi
State, Governor Mike Connor and Senator
Pat Harrison are among those here
for the game.
The Maroon of Mississippi State is
an honored foe, typifying clean sportsmanship
and hard play, on any football
field.
Tulane salutes this splendid old friend
and rival.
The alumni of Mississippi State who
reside in New Orleans have been actively
cooperating for weeks in trying to
make the game a great event. They are
to be commended for their untiring efforts
toward this end.
Win or lose, we know that we will
see a great football game this afternoon.
• • •
Captain A. R. MacKechnie, the new
head coach of the Maroons, has done a
great job in his first year at the helm.
His teams have jumped into respect
throughout the South.
Their valiant stand against the Vanderbilt
Commodores for a 7 to 7 tie won
acclaim from all sides.
ro
MacKechnie is assisted by two fine,
capable young coaches, Edwin "Goat"
Hale and Russ Crane.
• • •
Hale is remembered wherever football
is played in the South as the famous
halfback who led Mississippi College to
one triumph after another over maJor
foes back in 1920 and 1921.
• • •
We also want to take this occasiOn
to express our pleasure over having so
many members of the Mississippi daily
press with us today. We hope they will
come again soon.
• • •
UNDER THE BAKER
(Continued from page 8)
e The Vanderbilt-Georgia Tech game held
them in a lively argument for almost an
hour last week with about half the staf
selecting Vanderbilt and the others stringing
with Georgia Tech.
• • •
• Will Wedge of the Sun is interested in
Tulane and Southern football. Wedge has
made several Southern football trips and
saw Tulane play the University of Georgia
at Columbus in 1929.
• He says he'll never forget the great game
Bill Banker played that day.
• • •
e Alan Could, Eddie Niel and Foster
Hailey of the Associated Press staf are also
greatly interested in the Southern teams.
• Hailey, who covered the Wave-Colgate
game, worked on the New Orleans Item a
number of years back and recalled all of the
Tulane stars of those days.

The Origin of Rugby Football
{By PARKE H. DAVIS
Rugby School in England was founded in 15 6 7.
The origin of organixed football among the boys
of the eighteenth century bas passed into oblivion
but from the earliest memories and records foot·
ball was played at Rugby. Old time foo!ball. however,
was under few and simple rules. The players
upon a side were either unlimited or limited. If
unlimited it was called a Bigside of football. If
limited, a Littleside of football. Two playing fields
were designated by these same names, Bigside and
Littleside. Sides at Bigside were formed by choosing
in all who wished to play. Side lines and goal
lines were marked by objects rather than by lines.
Carrying the ball was forbidden. A player who
caught a punt might
..
heel'' his catch and thereby
obtain a free kick at goal. just as we do today,
with goal posts al£o ,fike ours, or he might take
one step and return the punt.
But there came a crisp November day in 1823.
Over a hundred boys had assembled and been
chosen in for B;<>side. The ·game soon was in
action. Up and down surged the ball but without
a score. Thus the time wore on until the school
bell trembled on the first strike of five the last of
which would terminate the game. A long sailing
punt came down the field, the last efort of the
kicking side to score. Out from the mass of players
on the receiving side ranged a young Rugbyian
to make the catch. His name Was William Webb
Ellis. By a violent efort he stoops and cleanly
catches the ball just as it is about to strike the
ground. Under the rules he could have held his
catch and then taken a free kick at the goal or he
might have taken one step and returned the kick.
With the inspiration of desperation, however, and
contrary to rule and custom he tucked the ball
under his arm and started straight up the field
with the ball. His opponents angered by his Aag·
rant foul attempted to seize him and throw him
down but warding of all, one after another. and
z:ig-z:agging in and out, he finally crossed his op·
ponents' goal line just as the first peal of five re·
sounded on the air.
In thos<'! days contested points, games and
changes in the rules were decided in a school
tribunal, held under the elms and called a Bigside
Levee. The sensational performance of Ellis was
severely condemned generally throughout the
school, but as davs came and went there arose
here and there throughout the school a few who
saw in the exploit an opportunity for a great
change on lhe game. After a time the idea was
supported by a majority of the school leaders and
at last was the subject of favorable action by a
Bigside Levee. At first the privilege of carrying
the ball was limited to the return of kicks cleanly
caught, just as performed by Ellis, then the right
was extended to kicks taken on the first bound,
and at last to balls received in any manner. In
the next few years an involved game based on the
central principle of carrying the ball arose at
Rugby and was imitated by teams outside of Rug·
by, the latter finally organizing into the Rugby
Football Union. It is from the code of the latter
that our p;-ame was taken bodily in 1876 by dele·
gates in convention from Columbia, Harvard,
Princeton and Yale.
The game which you are watching to-day is
the direct derivative of the game founded by Wil·
liam Webb Elis.
William Webb Ellis was a town boy of Rugby.
He entered the school in December, 18 16, at the
age of eleven years. The school records show
that he was a scholar of pronounced ability. Upon
leaving Rugby School he entered Brasenose College
at Oxford. Later he was ordained in the
ministry and for severaJ years acted as incumbent
of the Church of St. Clement Danes, Strand, and
subsequently as the Rector of Laver Magdalen in
Eesex. He died January 24. 1872.
In an ivy grown waH at Rugby has been placed
a tablet preserving to world-wide football poster·
ity the name and exploit of this school-boy genius.
It reads as follows:
THIS STONE
COMMEMORATES THE EXPLOIT OF
WILLIAM WEBB ELLIS

THE KID'S GA TE
Any one of them might be an embryonic
Roberts, or a potential Robinson. Certainly
there are numerous aspirants to the glamorous
position of pigskin star among the
hundreds of youngsters who flock to the
Kid Gate at the Tulane Stadium each Saturday.
Here, for the total sum of 2 5 copper pennies,
the youngest of football enthusiasts are
admitted to the Scoreboard end of the field.
Instituted through the eforts of Dr. Wilbur
C. Smith, Wave Athletic Director, and the
Athletic Council a number of years ago, the
kid section has become the holiday mecca
for youngsters from all around the town.
"Oh, Boy I in at last f" shouted one towheaded,
snub-nosed tike at the recent Auburn
game. "Come on, gang."
And ten other Tulane ponies, their
skinned knees and scratched noses giving
mute evidence of many a grim football battle
in vacant lots, treked after him. Inside
the gate, the miniature team went into a
22
huddle. "11-36-63-1 Oth row from the top
-hep" and en masse the kids dashed for
the stand.
Outside, eager, excited children staunchly
defended their right to places in line. They
are of every shape and size. Fat boys,
skinny boys, lanky boys and little fellows.
There are freckled-faced lads with red hair,
barefoot kiddies and stiffly starched kiddies.
It's almost time for the kickof. One pathetic
little fellow lingers outside the gate,
longingly gazing inside.
"Hey, mister, .
.
timidly he sidles up to the
gate guard, "how much is it to get in?"
"Quarter, sonny."
"Aw, geel" the little fellow started to
turn away.
The gate guard bent over and whispered
to him. The youngster beamed and nodded
assent. The guard twisted a button of the
boy's shirt and the youngster ran into the
stadium as the guard dropped a two-bit
piece into the coin box and a button into
his pocket.

Captain Floyd "'Little Preacher" Roberts led in the sweep that sent Colgate down to defeat. Roberts was a demon on defense, a raging riot on ofense and a galloping gridiron ghost on that long, 76-yard run to the winning touchdown. He also kicked the extra point to cement the victory. e Roy Ary and Bob Simons played the entire game at tackles and did a great job. Their work could not have been improved on any football field. Charlie Calhoun and Bill Schroeder were equally as efective at guards. Dick Hardy and Charlie Kyle were there all the route at ends. • Homer Robinson came into his own at center. "Robby" played as great a game as any Wave pivotman ever turned in. His fierce tackling in backing up the line on defense was perfection. His passing of the ball was a symphony. • Buck Cheeves, one of the officials, was quoted after the game as declaring that John McDaniel's quarterback play was as fine as he had ever witnessed. e Cheeves also added that McDaniel's tackling was the finest he had seen this year. • Little Monk Simors' kicking was certainly the best seen on a Tulane team in years. He was kicking out of bounds in the "cof-s fin" corner of the field with regularity and reeled of two quick kicks that were a bit of artistry. Joe Loftin's play at fullback was outstanding. e» The two substitutes, Bucky Bryan and Stanley Lodrigues played jam-up football while they were in the game. • • • • Earl Sparling, who gave Tulane the name of "Green Wave" back a number of years ago when be was a student at the institution, was at the game. Sparling, now on the editorial staf of the New York World Telegram, is well known in New York for his book depicting the life of lvar Kreuger, the Swedish match king. • • • e Charles "Buck" O'Neill, sports writer of the New York Evening Journal, is a great booster of Louisiana. O'Neill spent two springs at New Orleans when the Yankees trained here, and writes about the great cooking of Louisiana at every opportunity. • • • e Paul Kiefer of the New York Evening Post, an alumnus of William and Mary, was greatly interested in the Green Wave and familiar with the traditions and history of the University. • • • • Jimmy Powers of the New York News and his staf have a weekly argument on Thursdays during the footbalJ season as they make their gridiron forecasts on Southern games. • They claim that the teams in the Southeastern Conference are apparently so well balanced that they are the hardest in the country to forecast with any real hope of success. (Continued on Page 10) JOHN McDANIEL, Tulane quarterback, whose brilliant generalship and fine defensive play was one of the highspots of the Tulane-Colgate game last Saturday. 9 Mississippi Day Today is Mississippi Day at New Orleans. Thousands of visitors from our neighboring state are here to make it a great occasion and see their football favorites battle the Tulane Green Wave. President Hugh Critz of Mississippi State, Governor Mike Connor and Senator Pat Harrison are among those here for the game. The Maroon of Mississippi State is an honored foe, typifying clean sportsmanship and hard play, on any football field. Tulane salutes this splendid old friend and rival. The alumni of Mississippi State who reside in New Orleans have been actively cooperating for weeks in trying to make the game a great event. They are to be commended for their untiring efforts toward this end. Win or lose, we know that we will see a great football game this afternoon. • • • Captain A. R. MacKechnie, the new head coach of the Maroons, has done a great job in his first year at the helm. His teams have jumped into respect throughout the South. Their valiant stand against the Vanderbilt Commodores for a 7 to 7 tie won acclaim from all sides. ro MacKechnie is assisted by two fine, capable young coaches, Edwin "Goat" Hale and Russ Crane. • • • Hale is remembered wherever football is played in the South as the famous halfback who led Mississippi College to one triumph after another over maJor foes back in 1920 and 1921. • • • We also want to take this occasiOn to express our pleasure over having so many members of the Mississippi daily press with us today. We hope they will come again soon. • • • UNDER THE BAKER (Continued from page 8) e The Vanderbilt-Georgia Tech game held them in a lively argument for almost an hour last week with about half the staf selecting Vanderbilt and the others stringing with Georgia Tech. • • • • Will Wedge of the Sun is interested in Tulane and Southern football. Wedge has made several Southern football trips and saw Tulane play the University of Georgia at Columbus in 1929. • He says he'll never forget the great game Bill Banker played that day. • • • e Alan Could, Eddie Niel and Foster Hailey of the Associated Press staf are also greatly interested in the Southern teams. • Hailey, who covered the Wave-Colgate game, worked on the New Orleans Item a number of years back and recalled all of the Tulane stars of those days.

The origin of organixed football among the boys of the eighteenth century bas passed into oblivion but from the earliest memories and records foot· ball was played at Rugby. Old time foo!ball. however, was under few and simple rules. The players upon a side were either unlimited or limited. If unlimited it was called a Bigside of football. If limited, a Littleside of football. Two playing fields were designated by these same names, Bigside and Littleside. Sides at Bigside were formed by choosing in all who wished to play. Side lines and goal lines were marked by objects rather than by lines. Carrying the ball was forbidden. A player who caught a punt might .. heel'' his catch and thereby obtain a free kick at goal. just as we do today, with goal posts al£o ,fike ours, or he might take one step and return the punt. But there came a crisp November day in 1823. Over a hundred boys had assembled and been chosen in for B;<>side. The ·game soon was in action. Up and down surged the ball but without a score. Thus the time wore on until the school bell trembled on the first strike of five the last of which would terminate the game. A long sailing punt came down the field, the last efort of the kicking side to score. Out from the mass of players on the receiving side ranged a young Rugbyian to make the catch. His name Was William Webb Ellis. By a violent efort he stoops and cleanly catches the ball just as it is about to strike the ground. Under the rules he could have held his catch and then taken a free kick at the goal or he might have taken one step and returned the kick. With the inspiration of desperation, however, and contrary to rule and custom he tucked the ball under his arm and started straight up the field with the ball. His opponents angered by his Aag· rant foul attempted to seize him and throw him down but warding of all, one after another. and z:ig-z:agging in and out, he finally crossed his op· ponents' goal line just as the first peal of five re· sounded on the air. In thos<'! days contested points, games and changes in the rules were decided in a school tribunal, held under the elms and called a Bigside Levee. The sensational performance of Ellis was severely condemned generally throughout the school, but as davs came and went there arose here and there throughout the school a few who saw in the exploit an opportunity for a great change on lhe game. After a time the idea was supported by a majority of the school leaders and at last was the subject of favorable action by a Bigside Levee. At first the privilege of carrying the ball was limited to the return of kicks cleanly caught, just as performed by Ellis, then the right was extended to kicks taken on the first bound, and at last to balls received in any manner. In the next few years an involved game based on the central principle of carrying the ball arose at Rugby and was imitated by teams outside of Rug· by, the latter finally organizing into the Rugby Football Union. It is from the code of the latter that our p;-ame was taken bodily in 1876 by dele· gates in convention from Columbia, Harvard, Princeton and Yale. The game which you are watching to-day is the direct derivative of the game founded by Wil· liam Webb Elis. William Webb Ellis was a town boy of Rugby. He entered the school in December, 18 16, at the age of eleven years. The school records show that he was a scholar of pronounced ability. Upon leaving Rugby School he entered Brasenose College at Oxford. Later he was ordained in the ministry and for severaJ years acted as incumbent of the Church of St. Clement Danes, Strand, and subsequently as the Rector of Laver Magdalen in Eesex. He died January 24. 1872. In an ivy grown waH at Rugby has been placed a tablet preserving to world-wide football poster· ity the name and exploit of this school-boy genius. It reads as follows: THIS STONE COMMEMORATES THE EXPLOIT OF WILLIAM WEBB ELLIS WHO WITH A FINE DISREGARD OF THE RULES OF FOOTBALL AS PLAYED IN HIS TIME FIRST TOOK THE BALL IN HIS ARMS AND RAN WITH IT THUS ORIGINATING THE DISTINCTIVE FEATURE OF THE RUGBY CAME A.

' . l THE KID'S GA TE Any one of them might be an embryonic Roberts, or a potential Robinson. Certainly there are numerous aspirants to the glamorous position of pigskin star among the hundreds of youngsters who flock to the Kid Gate at the Tulane Stadium each Saturday. Here, for the total sum of 2 5 copper pennies, the youngest of football enthusiasts are admitted to the Scoreboard end of the field. Instituted through the eforts of Dr. Wilbur C. Smith, Wave Athletic Director, and the Athletic Council a number of years ago, the kid section has become the holiday mecca for youngsters from all around the town. "Oh, Boy I in at last f" shouted one towheaded, snub-nosed tike at the recent Auburn game. "Come on, gang." And ten other Tulane ponies, their skinned knees and scratched noses giving mute evidence of many a grim football battle in vacant lots, treked after him. Inside the gate, the miniature team went into a 22 huddle. "11-36-63-1 Oth row from the top -hep" and en masse the kids dashed for the stand. Outside, eager, excited children staunchly defended their right to places in line. They are of every shape and size. Fat boys, skinny boys, lanky boys and little fellows. There are freckled-faced lads with red hair, barefoot kiddies and stiffly starched kiddies. It's almost time for the kickof. One pathetic little fellow lingers outside the gate, longingly gazing inside. "Hey, mister, . . timidly he sidles up to the gate guard, "how much is it to get in?" "Quarter, sonny." "Aw, geel" the little fellow started to turn away. The gate guard bent over and whispered to him. The youngster beamed and nodded assent. The guard twisted a button of the boy's shirt and the youngster ran into the stadium as the guard dropped a two-bit piece into the coin box and a button into his pocket.
