The Green Wave} Rolling On!

By FLORES FORD MEAGHER

(Editors Note: We commend the song printed herewith to all Tulanians as one of inspiration and fight. Try it to the tune "Battle Hymn of the Republic." 117e believe, with musical variations and perhaps minor rearrangements, that it might ,ke lhe perpetual "fight" song for all Tulane men and womln. 'Âť ~nyway, we think enough of it to devote the editorial page of THE GREENIE today in full to it. IT MUST NOT BE REPUBLISHED OR USED WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF THE AUTHOR.) (Copyright Pending) ---,0---

From the bayous to the gulf tides, you may hear our battle song When the autumn's glowing colors hangs o'er ripened cane among Lo' the clans are swiftly gathering and Tulane comes marching on And the Green Wave's rolling on.

The grand old Captain watches from his vantage in the air, And the flame of courage rises from '''Old Hickory in the Square," Hearts of oak and men of valor, still achieve nor know despair~'

And the Green Wave's rolling on.

Onward Tulane, show your mettle, stand your ground like men of old, Watch their lines, bring down the boldest, all their strategy unfold.

Here they come now into battle, show the world the Tulane mould, And the Green Wave's rolling on.

Chorus: Rolling, Rolling, Rolling Onward, Rolling, Rolling, Rolling Onward, Onward, Tulane's Rolling Onward Oh, the Green Wave's Rolling On. Loyal hosts and maidens fair, all in Tulane's brave array, Cheer the warriors into battle for the jousting of the day.

Weare true to Alma Mater, win or lose, or right or wrong And the Green Wave's rolling on.

A westering gale is blowing, Pals, there's glory in the air.

Our banners gayly flaunt and wave in the hands of Newcomb's fair, ! ,~, Comes the surging pulse of battle and the will t9 ''aO and dare, And the Green Wave's rolling on.

Hold them Tulane, we are gaining, inch by inch, the winning down, Gallant runs and dauntless tackles soon will bring the victor's crown, By the Pioneers we'll crush them and we'll add to old renown.

And the Green Wave's rolling on.

Hurrah! We gained the victory. There's old time warriors yet.

'Tis the steadfast heart that conquers, 'tis the stuff that won Chalmette.

By the Mississippi flowing, still bold lances shall be met.

And the Green Wave's rolling on.

Football's Opportunity

By MORGAN BLAKE

(Sports Editor, Atlanta Journal)

While in New Orleans late in September on a tour of southern football camps for my paper I attended on Sunday the St. Charles Baptist Church. There I was introduced to a husky young gentleman, pleasant faced and mild mannered. His name was Lefty Haynes.

It was the first time I had ever seen Lefty with his hair combed and in his Sunday go to meeting clothes. He bore no resemblance to the shaggy lion of the grid, who was the terror of all opposition. Tulane's mighty flankman of 1931 is teaching a Sunday school class for youngsters at the St. Charles church and needless to say the attendance is a hundred per cent all the time.

Destiny certainly handled Haynes in a strange manner.

Absolutely unknown until the Vanderbilt game in his senior year, Haynes in a half dozen battles became such a formidable player that he was rated one of the greatest ends of the nation.

He played sixty seconds during the season of 1929 and one quarter in the season of 1930. Up to his senior _year he was just one of the boys in the squad. Then like a bright star in the heavens whose light had just reached this

earthly sphere he blazed forth, and did a lion's share of the job of making Tulane southern champions, and runner up to the mighty Trojans in the nation.

When Bernie Bierman sent Haynes in for those sixty seconds in a minor game in his sophomore year, Bernie of course, never dreamed that he was inflicting a real disaster to the Green Wave of 1932. Yet had this minute not been played Lefty would have been eligible for another year at his Alma Mater. And we imagine Ted Cox could use him.

I was thrilled when I found that one of the south's greatest football heroes was teaching a class of boys and seeking to point the way to them to a fine clean manhood.

Its a great responsibility to be a football hero and have the youngsters worship you. A football hero counts more with a kid than all the preachers and professors in town.

And when little fellows love and trust you, God pity the man who is not inspired to set an example for them.

Yes a football hero has a great responsibility. And also a great opportunity.

Hurrah for Lefty Haynes!

The Evolution of Football

By PARKE H. DAVIS

One of the most interesting and stlmng features of of American Collegiate Football is the evolution of the game itself. While other sports remain fixed in their rules and operation from year to year, football has been and still is in a fascinating change.

Our great sport was founded by William S. Gummere '79 of Princeton, who conceived the idea of an intercollegiate game of football between Princeton and Rutgers, although at that time no such contest had been waged either in England or America. He, thereupon invented a set of rules following the association pattern. He next inspired William S. Leggett of Rutgers to join him. Two teams then were organized and drilled and the game eventually played at New Brunswick, November 16, 1869, Rutgers winning by six goals to Princeton's four. Leggett recently died but Gummere lives to survey with pride the great institution which he set in motion. He is, today, the Chief Justice of the State of New Jersey.

Columbia joined Princeton and Rutgers in 1870. In 1872 Yale became an intercollegiate competitor, playing and winning its first game with Columbia, 3 to 0, at New Haven, November 16, 1872. In 1874 David Roger, captain of the McGill University team at Montreal, challenged Harvard to a game of rugby. Havard had neither played Rugby nor waged an intercollegiate game but its captain, Henry R. Grant, accepted the challenge. This

historic game was played on Jarvis Field at Cambridge, May 15, 1874, and resulted in a draw at 0 to O. Harvard immediately after became a rugby playing institution and in the fall of 1875 Nathaniel Curtis, captain of Harvard, challenged Yale. The Blue's captain was William A. Arnold, who immediately accepted. This game was played at New Haven on November 13, 1875, and resulted in a victoty for Harvard 4 goals to Yale's O. Both Mr. Curtis and Mr. Arnold are still living and keenly interested in football.

Attending this game were two of Princeton's leading players, Earle Dodge and Jotham Potter. Perceiving the superiority of the rugby style of play over the various American versions of association, they returned to Princeton and substituted rugby for the prevailing style of game.

But they did more. In the fall of 1876, on Thursday, November 23rd, they assembled delegates from Columbia, Harvard and Yale in the old Massoit House at Springfield, where they formed the American Intercollegiate Football Association, adopted the Rugby Union Code of England as their rules of play and scheduled a mutual set of games.

The game adopted on that memorable day, fifty-five years ago, with the many changes introduced during this long period, is the game which you are watching today.

Rugby in the beginning had fifteen players on a side.

These in 1870 were reduced to eleven, the Eton number.

In the English game the ball was put in play by a "scrum."

This in 1881 was abolished and the American scrimmage invented. The players adjacent to the ends at first were called " next-to-end" and the players at each side of the center, " next-to-center." It soon became noticed that the "next-to-ends" made most of the tackles and so they came to be called at first " tacklers" and later "tackles." Similarly, it was noticed that the "next-to-centers" guarded the center with their legs precisely as they do today and so these players were called the "guards."

In the early days there was no "off-side" interference.

It was contrary to the rules. About 1885 a practice arose of sending a man at each side of the carrier to make tackling from the side more difficult. This was called "guarding."

Gradually these men advanced in front of the runners and

thus interference was created. The rugby styles of tackling, above the waist only, lasted until 1887 when the knees were made the restraining line. In the early '90s momentum mass plays arose. These were plays in which as many as ten men massed behind the line and started in motion before the ball was put in play. These were outlawed during this decade. In 1906 the forward pass was invented and introduced into the game in order to force tacticians to adopt open play.

Thus, in every year since 1876 excepting 1877 and 1878 and the World War years of 1918 and 1919 changes of some kind have been introduced into the game, until today there is as much interest each fall in the new changes in the Football Rules as there are in f all hats, overcoats and shoes.
