Kansas 'Aggie Yearlings In
With Strong Bunch of
Ball-luggers
FI.ETCHER K AGGIE STAR
Saturday's game between the Ne
braska yearlings and the Kansas Ag
gie freshmen looms up as a worthy
replacement for the regular Varsity
tangle. Reports from the Kaggie
camp are filled with the prowess of
the farmers. Glowing pictures of
well-balanced eleven are painted by
Manhattan scribes, which all goes
to prove that the combat this week
end will be hard-fought and inter
esting. Fletcher, pint halfback for the Ag
gies, seems to disregard his size, and
is easily the star of the aggregation.
According to reports, he is an unerr
ing snatcher on the receiving end of
forward flips, and has never failed to
make at least one touchdown against
whatever team he was opposing. Rus
sell holds down the fullback position
in polished fashion, and Sanders at
right half proves a dependable run
ning mate for Fletcher. He is a triple
threat man of great ability, but his
punting comes up for the greatest
share of praise. Ryan, all-state quar
ter from Vernon, Texas, concludes
the quartet.
Kan sans Hare Heavy Lib
A strong forward wall gives the
team a balanced effect calculated to
cause trouble for the opposition.
Ends Nally and Meredith excell on
defensive play but have the height to
deliver on the ball-advancing efforts.
Bowman, Freeman and Horner han
dle the tackle positions, and Brown
and Wilvers will probably get the
call at guard. Sanders is tr first
string center, and out-classes other
contenders there as Case does here.
"Choppy" had the yearlings cor
nered on the upper field for their
first secret drill Thursday. A passing
defense was being stressed by all the
assembled coaches, and McBride, ex
Lincoln high plunger, was withheld
from active participation in the of
fensive spurt staged against Racely's
D team.
Will Wear Blue Jerseys
The vearlinir eleven will probably
appear in blue jerseys Saturday, al
lowing the Kaggie opponents to don
their crimson coverings.
Win or lose, the freshman squad
is invited to the Lincoln theater Sun
day afternoon at two o'clock to wit
ness "The Quarterback", starring
Richard Dix in a football treat.
Varsity Hat Light Workout
Varsity men divided into numerous
teams and indulged in prolonged sig
nal practice. Coach Bear mega
phoned instructions to them all from
the center of the field. Ihe going
was light, the Varsity coaches taking
advantage of the freshman appear

CARNEGIE TECH TO
MEET MEEHAN CREW
Walter Camp is widely known as
the "Father of American Football",
he is in fact the "Father" of the
game in respect to the first and re
cent kinds of football tactics known
only to American Football. He played
in the first game of football ever to
be staged in this country, which was
the game between Yale and Harvard
in 1876 under Rugby rules, while he
was yet seventeen years old.
When he left college he devoted a
great deal of his time to th develop
ment of the game and shortly he was
widely known as a mentor of the
game. He made the change from fif
teen players to eleven and devised
the "safety" and "quarterback" be
fore he was twenty. In 1880 he suc
ceeded in having the "scrimmage"
adopted by the convention. This
change gave the holder of the ball
undisputed determination of the way
the ball should be delivered to the
"quarterback". The "block" game
was the next change made by Camp,
which called for a certain number of
yards to be made in a given number
of downs. This change soon brought
about another important change, the
"low tackle", which in turn brought
about the change In the formation
from the open to a "closed forma
tion". Walter Camp has made many
of the rules in the present day foot
ball. It was his idea that the field be
marked into the "gridiron". He was
the originator of the All-Amencan
Teams. He selected the first in 1889
and chose one each year from that
time until his death. There will
doubtless be many mythical "All
AmonVnn teams" named in the fu
ture, but the "All American" team
passed out of the picture when Wal
ter Camp died.
A definite set of rules was formed
in the year 1905. Delegates from all
tb fortv-eieht colleges met and
formed a National Collegiate Ath
letic Association and appointed a
football rules committee. From this
time rules followed in collegiate
games were formed and restrictions
made by this committee. The conv
mittce could always rely on the judg
ment of Walter Camp on any impor
tant measure that came up.
Walter Camp was not only a foot
ball mentor but also helped greatly
in the development of the athletic
body. He did much to bring about the
use of his famous "Daily Dozen".
