On Trail of Legore,
Deposed Yale Star
NEW TORK, Oct tfc-Th startling
athletic upheaval in New Haven, which
Jarred Ioom five of Tal' foremost ath
letic representatives, has caused a stir
In bass ball drclM. No doubt two dosen
sotuta from major and Federal league
clubs are trying to get the ear of Harry
Legore, one of th flv upon whom per
manent disbarment from oolleg athletlo
competition was Imposed.
Lgor I a vareatllo athlete, who star
In almoat all branches of sport. A won
derful foot ball back, he waa th corner
stone on which were laid Frank Hlnkey's
hop of beating Princeton and Harvard.
Still If ha never had handled a foot ball,
Lcrore would have won mora than aver,
age glory, a ha waa rated even higher
aa a baa ball asset Ha played shortstop
so brilliantly for tha Blue nine that ba at
tracted widespread attention from major
leagru managers.
Tha New Tork American leagv dub
waa one of tha flrat that tried to Interest
Legor in tha professional and of base
ball. Later, half a dosen club set snares
for him Connie Mack was particularly
attracted. It va haa been Intimated
from Philadelphia that ba will sign soon
with tha Athletics.
To all tb major league pleading here
tofore he turned a deaf ear. He assured
Oeorge Davis that ha never would play
professional basa ball baoauaa of parental
objection. At that time, of ours, th
young man bad moat of hi athletic
career a a collegian la prospect, for he
I now In hi Junior year. If. however,
Legor should change hi mind, b will
not find It difficult to obtain a place.

Mr. Camp at the time waa Tale' cap
tain. From that day to thla, a period ef
thirty-seven yeara, Walter Camp baa par
ticipated In every session of tba rulee
maklng body.
It was Mr. Camp who Invented th side
of th "eleven," thu breaking away from
the Rugby "fifteen." Again It was Mr.
Camp who devised ths dimensions of the
American field of play and Introduced the
method of an orderly possession of the
ball by one side, our "scrimmage," thus
doing away with tbe English "scrum
mage" and making possible the use of
preconceived plays, tactics and signals.
In hi senior year at Tale this genius
Introduced to the game the safety as a
coring play. Prior thereto the safety
had been regarded as a touchback I to
day. All of these great Inventions Walter
Camp accomplished while still an under
graduate at Tale.
' Ivea ek1-a- Problem.
A year or twa later It was Walter
Camp who solved tha perplexing problem
presented by the "block game" which
Princeton had Invented, by which one
aide was able te retain posseulon of tb
ball throughout an entire half
Mr. Camp's solution was th Invention
of "fair and down," by which on side
was permitted to mtaln th ball only
so long as It could advanoa It at least
five yarda In four down.
A "fair" was a. nam applied to putting
the ball In play from the aid Una when
out of bound. It was this Invention
which gave th final twist to th Inter
collegiate game, wrenching It wholly
away from English Rugby and making
of It a distinctive American style of play.
It was also tha establishment of the five
yard gain In four down that led to the
striping of the field with lima, which
haa given to It tha familiar nam of grid
iron. In 183 It was Camp' suggestion that
resulted In tha numerical system of scor
ing by which value were assign- the
coring play. Previously it frequently
occurred that neither team could tall
which had won the game, on account of
the confusion between tb relative worth
of touchdowns, goal from touchdowns
and goals from field.
In IftSt Mr. Camp originated tha vary
institution of the rules committee) Itself,
presenting to the lntercolleglata conven
tion In that year a comprehensive plan
for auch a body, which he styled a "gard
uat advisory committee of rules and ap
peals." Thla plan th Intercollegiate convention
adopted and for four year both bodies
existed together, after which tha inter
collegiate convention, bavins dwindled
down to Pennsylvania. Princeton and
Tale, finally disappeared.
Led Bl Rebellion.
Mr. Camp leadership In the rebellion
f 1886 la still vividly recalled. Harvard
and Pennsylvania at that time bad hlg-hly
developed th momentum maag play.
Tal and Princeton opposed this style
f attack. Th controversy became so
flare that tha ruUa oommlttaa broke In
two and the next year tha country had
two sets of rule.
In 1897, however, a union was affected,
but Mr. Caj had won, for tha mo
mentum mas play were not retained.
HI latest Innovation along tha line of
major s enlevements with tha rules waa
hi introduction for th offensive team to
batter out tha necessary ten yard, thus
rtorlns- th balance between tha often
and defenss which had been disturbed by
the abolition of Interlocked interference.
'Such ar th more Important feature
In tha rules which owe their presence to
"Walter Camp.
