YALE LOOKS FOR FOOTBALL COME-BACK
WALTER CAMP'S
POSITION OP AUTHORITY
PRESAGES YALE SUCCESS
"Veteran Adviser, Overruled for Three Years by
Coaching Board, Will Again Be Absolute Boss
of Football at New Haven Institution
tTTALTEIl CAMP has reconsidered
M" fit Ynlo and will nccept his appointment to tlio commltteo of llvo wlilch
''UtO'ituldo tlio football policy of tho Ells In tlio future. After tlio 1915 Benson
-tJamp announced his retirement, as ho was dlssatisflcd with tho way Yale's
football was belns handled. Iurlnir the period when Yalo reigned supremo
oh the Rridlron Cnmp was practically the absolute boss of the Klls' football,
but nfter ono or two poor seasons, which were due to lack of material, several
athletic authorities at Now Haven began to Interfere with him and It Is known
that last season ho had Uttlo authority.
Conditions becamo Intolerable to Camp and many other men who had
been prominent factors In the rise of Ynle to the gridiron supremacy and they
finnlly took mutters In their own hands. A commltteo consisting of Vnnco
McCormlck, John Kllpatrlck and Brink Thorne was given authority to thor
oughly Investigate conditions and to select a new conch and football committee.
After selecting "Tnd" .Tones for head coach and Mike Sweeney as athletic
adviser, which work will also lncludo supervising tho conditioning of tho foot
ball and track teams, tho committee of thrco Immediately voted to place Walter
Cnmp at tho head of tho Board of Coaches and to allow him a free hand.
Camp Is ono of tho few veterans of tho football gamo who has progressed
with the game. Ho is just os valuable to tho VAh under the new game as
ho was under tho old and It Is reasonably certain that Ynlo will come back with
a vengcanco In two years. Next fall a new system will be Inaugurated nnil
little Is expected, but the following season tho Klls probably will bo back on the
lop rung of the football ladder or closo to It.
. . .
Camp's Strategy Rejected by Yale Coaches
That Camp did not get along well with the coaching board last fall was
apparent, and after the game with Washington and Jefferson tho show-down
came. Camp gained his point and Tom Shovlln was called from tho West to
handle tho team for the rest of tho season. The nils camo back In excellent
nhapo for Princeton, but the strain was too great and Harvard won an easy
victory In tho final.
An Interesting sidelight of tho Ynlc-W. and J. gamo gives nn excellent Idea
of Camp's strategy. Camp knew that Folwell had perfected tho forward pass,
but until that gamo the new Pcnn tutor hall not cut loose with tho play. The
Yalo mentor believed that tho Blue's defense was not equal to breaking up any
sort of a well-executed pass. He suggested that tho week prior to the gamo
bo spent in defensive practice breaking up forward passes.
Tho coaches refused to listen and went Into the gamo unprepared, with
tho result that W. and J. executed 22 out of 2C forward passes successfully and
forward passed their way to victory. The night before tho game Camp sug
gested to the coaches that as soon as W. and J. tried Its pass, which later
proved to 'bo Folwcll's famous baseball pass, tho Klls on receiving the ball
uhould uso tho same Identical play.
Wanted Yale to Adopt Same Pass
Thcro was no signal or formation ever practiced for this play and tho
other coaches ridiculed tho idea. Camp insisted that ho did not expect the play
to gain ground, but that tho W. and J. team would tip off the best possible
defense for breaking It up. Ho argued that It was only natural to suppose
that much time had been spent by Folwell m perfecting tho play; that naturally
' both varsity and scrub teams used it In practice and therefore knew tho most
effective way to break It up.
Camp's suggestion was ridiculed, but subsequent events proved that the
Ells would havo been better off had they followed his advice, as they were
helpless whenever Folwcll's men cared to uso the play. As it happens, Folwell
admits thcro Is a defense for It, and also believes that It is possible his men
might havo tipped It off bad Yalo started using the same play.
Matty May Fail to Come Back
Christy Mathewson, tho "Peerless Matty," will have charge of tho first
quad of tlio New York Giants which is scheduled to depart for Marlln on
March 1. Matty will try out his arm thoroughly during tho training season,
and If ho does not feel certain that he will return to his old form he IntendH
to retire. Fans throughout tho country will be pulling for Matty to come back,
but It Is doubtful If tho famous hurler will succeed.
Mathewson attributed his poor showing last season to a cold contracted
In his arm shortly after tho season opened and which affected a nerve. No
doubt this hastened Mntty's decline; but It was evident In his first game In
this city lost season that ho had lost his old speed and sharp-breaking curve
balf, and that was before his arm went wrong.
Dr. Charles Spencer, tho Los Angeles osteopath, who recently declared that
BUI Klllefer and other ball players had been ruined by "Bono-setter" Ileese,
examined Mathewson's arm beforo ho returned to tho coast. Upon arriving
In Los Angeles last week Doctor Spencer declared that neither Mathewson nor
Klllefer would ever bo right again, but that Ed Walsh would bo a real come-back
next season. A return to form by Walsh would bo welcomed by the fans, but lot
Us hopo that Doctor Spencer Is wrong about Matty and Klllefer, ns the Phils will
surely need their star backstop next season, while Matty's end would be re
gretted by fandom throughout tho country.
Fed Suit Still Worries Organized Ball
The refusal of the Baltimore Federal League Club to consent to tho with
drawal of the suit beforo Judge Landls Is worrying Organized Ball more than
It. Is willing to admit, and unless a compromise Is reached beforo Monday, some
Interesting things may develop. It is all right for the magnates and scribes
to declare that the Federal Leaguo Is dead and so Is Baltimore, but there Is no
telling what the courts will do on any question. Ban Johnson, ndmlttcdly the
shrewdest man now connected with tho great national gamo In an executive
capacity, frankly says that ho is worried, but tho general run of magnates are
inclined to smile every time tho suit is mentioned to them.
The referee of tho Quccnsberry Club, of Columbus, Ohio, has been accused
of pulling a count that was 4 seconds Bhy in the recent "Denver Jack" Geycr
Fred Nesser bout, Tho latter was counted out by the referee, though sporting
critics and boxing men at the ringside declare that Nesser was not on tho floor
more than 6 seconds. He was resting on one knee waiting for tho count of nine
When he was ordered to his corner "becauao tho referee had counted ten." ns
the ofllqial explanation reads. City officials aro Investigating the charge, and
it is said that boxing may be dealt a severe blow as a result of this "small
time stuff."
In naming the bIx hardest pitchers to hit he ever faced, Larry Lajole in
cludes tho three famous former Mackmen, Rube Wnddell, Eddie Plank and
"Chief Bender. Singularly, almost every American Leaguer who has been
uaked to contribute to this series names at least one of this trio, and Invariably
two or ull three ore mentioned. Some of tho performances of these three vet
tv""4oins "ever will bo forgotten by American League fans. The three other
. hurttJraV ho bothered Lajole are Ed Watab, Walter Johnson and Bay Caldwell.
Charley Iteldpath, rated as one of the greatest quarter-milers who ever
-wore a spiked shoe when he was with Syracuse, is In active training and may
pull a "come-back" this spring. Iteldpath is interested In the Buffalo Yi M,
C, Aand Is developing an excellent track team. If Iteldpath can return to his
old form, a special 600-yard raco between the Syracuse star and Meredith

"private clubB," Tho contests have been real battles, too, as the fighters try

though they are held Invariably in buildings which cannot accommodate more

Ten Years Aro ,
Ten years aKtTthls sprlnr; tho Giants bad
the National I.caKtio championship tied
up In strips of steel.
The fall before they had beaten tho
Athletics, In 4 out of fi Rames for tho
championship. They had tho old guard
back Mathewson, McGlnlty, Howermrin,
Drosnuhan, McGunu, Devlin, Donlin, Dah
len, Gilbert and tho rest.
Nothing to It. They couldn't be stopped.
Hut six months later tho Cubs bad
smashed nil past tecords by wlnnlnK DC
Rumen and losing S6 for a Brand avcrago
well above .7ou. No ball club smce has
over come within 5 K.imcs of thla record.

may return. If he does the Cub roster
for 191C will still carry four names that
answered roll-call In 1900.
The Shift of Fate
Ten yenrs ago Frank Chance was Just
coming Into famo and power. J to was
to rulo tho game for half a decade, lie
wus pointing toward tho borderland of
"Peerless Leader."
On that club he had a Becond-strlng
catcher named Tat Morau. Pat was con
sidered about through. Ills day was
aLout over.
Chance went to tho Yankees; Moran to
the Phillies. The P. U never got his club
above lifth place. Moran won a pennant
his llrst car out nnd broke tho spell of
40 llagless seasons. Or, as we have
quoted 8 or 10 times before:
"As this ol' wprld goes roun' and roun',
Some go up and some go down."
"That Mesmerizing Melody"
The campaign of 10 springs ago first
started the reiteration tjf a phrase which
lifted Franklin Parnassus Adams to ad
ditional renown. Many a Giant batsman
of the old days recull It "Tinker to
Hvers to Chance."
In case yqy. have forgotten Mr. Adams'
lyric, we will try and reproduco from
memory:
"Tlicao arc the saddest of possible
words,
Tinker to Evcrs to Chance;
Trio of bearcats and fleeter than birds,
Tinker and tjvers and Chance;
Pricking ruthlesslv our aonfalon bub
ble. Making a Qlant hit into a double.
Words that are heavy with nothing but
trouble.
Tinker to Evera to Chance,"
These three will start tne 1916 cam
paign about as far apart as the United
States of America -could place them. One
Is on the Atlantic coast, another on the
Pacific coast and the third will operate
In a section far from either ocean. Los
Angeles, Chicago, Boston. Not even the
pegging arms (hey carried 10 years ago
could complete a double play at thla dis
tance today.

Looking back over a stretch of 10 years
to that Cub machlno of 190S, we seem to
bae stumbled over another record.
Thnt season the Cubs played 71 road
games, of which they won CO and lost 14,

in modern baseball from 1S90 on, this
mark has never been touched. Tho Cubs
