FOOTBALL ANCIENT SPORT
Maj. Fulp Gives Interesting History of
Game.
Major J. I). Fulp tells the history of
football in an interesting talk at a
banquet givei at Abbeville Friday
evening ot>last week by the sponsors !
to the Abbeville Gridiron Kings, at the
close of the season here. Major Fulp
said: |'
"The name American Rugby may |
sound strange to football players in j
the United States, but it is the correct
name for their game. Football is play- i
ed principally in the British Empire
and in the United. States. It is.a very
ancient form of exercise and amusement.
The Indians of North America j
and the aborigines of many of the Pacific
islands played a similar g*nm<\
and it is not at all improbable that
football, in some form, was known in
the far-off days when all Europe was ,
in barbarism. It has been accepted by
some skeptical persons as the real rea- j
son, for the saving of Capt. Smith's
life by Pocahontas, the young Indian
maid mistaking the round head of the
captain for a football lying on the
block, being punted for a safety by
Pocahontas. The (Ireeks seem to have
taught it to the Romans, and the lat- ; 1
ter, through their soldiers, to the

Britons and other races of the north.
In the British Isles football was played
by whole communities, who kicked the
ball without clear design through the
streets or over the meadows between
tlie rival towns, in such rough fashion
that the game was sometimes forbidden
by law. Only in the nineteenth
century did it become an organized
game, with fixed numbers on each side
and definite methods of counting score.
It was at the great English schools j
like Rugby, Harrow and Eton that
football was first made practical. The
boys' playground at Rugby Is largo
and there Is plenty of room for running
and tackling. At other schools
even as late as 1850. the game was
confined to kicking and punting the
ball. Thus two distinct types of football
have developed: Rugby, which
permits running with the ball, <1nd Association
or Socoer, which prohibits it.
The former type includes English.
Canadian and American Rugby, three
distinct styles of play.
The great game was probably
brought to this country by early Virginia
colonists, and soon after 1830
several of the eastern colleges began
to play it. About 1S40 inter-class
games were common at Amherst,
Brown, Harvard and Yale. In 1860
these games became so rough that the
faculties of Harvard and Yale prohibited
football. At Princeton a more
orderly game was played, more on the
style of Association ball, and in 1869
the first inter-collegiate contest took
place between Princeton and Rutgers.
In 1S71 football was revived at Harvard,
with rules which permitted running
with the ball, as in Rugby. On
May 15. 1S74, AlcUill lonepe, 01 jmntreal,
Canada, having: challenged Harvard
to a match, met the Bostunians

Temperature of last Sunday ranged
from 34 degrees below zero at Medicine
Hat, Manitnhin to 74 .'ogrees ,
above in Miami, Fla. ....Prince George j
youngest son of the King of England, i
was operated on for appendicitis yes- j
terday. Search is being made in :
Utah for a lost mail aviator, Henry
G. Boustra. who has been missing j
since last Friday Col, Francis It. j
Marshall and Lieutenant Charles T,. i
Weber, aviators who disappeared near j
San Antonio, Texas, recently have not j
yet been found notwithstanding the
country in which they were supposed
to be lost Is being scoured by airplanes....
French newspapers generally
are resentful over the rumored
intention of the United States,to help
Germany with her reparations' payments
Twenty-seven persons have
been missing five days since the tug
Reliance hit a rock off TJzzard Island,
near Salt Ste Marie, Michigan. The
tug, which belonged to the Superior
paper company, also carried 27 passengers.
Seven survivers"of the wreck
reached Salt Ste Marie Sunday night.
Terrific weather has hampered efforts
at rescue Col. C. R. Forbes, director
of the veterans bureau at
ih the first intercollegiate Rugby.malch
played in America. McGHl's players
were accustomed to the English rules
of play while Harvard had made
slightly different rules. So on the day
preceding the game, the two teams'
courteously coached each other in tactics.
On the 15th a match was played
under Harvard rules, and Harvard
scored three times. The next day,"under
McGJU's rules, neither side was
able to score. Soon all of the big colleges
in America adopted the straight
Rugby style used today, and football
has grown in popularity ever since.
