Some interesting information on the
power of Rutgers football team OF
the past season is shown by a list
of figures and the following story
printed in the New Brunswick News.
Wittpenn, the local boy, stands high
on the records. The story follows;
Erred A. Hart, popularity known in
the Rutgers football world as Pop"
and who is second only to Parke A.
Davis, when it comes to compiling
football statistics, unloaded lot or
valuable information and inside stun
as to what the Rutgers team accom-
plIshed this season on the ban
uueters at Hotel Klein last night. To
those who are close students of tho
game these facts and figures as pre-
sented by Mr.. Hart are particularly
Illuminating. For instance, he showed
that during the season Rutgers
made 721 plays to their opponents
A68: that Talman. of Rutgers, punted
&c times for total yardage of LAS
Yards, an average OF 1916 yards, while
the opposing punters kicked 65 times
for 2,i70 yards, an average of 1873
yards. While Talman's average was
remarkable, 1t was two and one-halr
yards below that of last season.
I'm running back punts Rutgers
made 284 yards, to opponents 16S. An
other interesting fact disclosed by
Mr.. Hart was that Rutgers attempted
14I forward passes, completing 90 or
them for total gain of 697 yards. In
other words, Rutgers made good ~
per cent. of their passes. Opponents
resorted to the aerial route Jos times,
completing So for a total gain of 54I
Yards, or a 80 percentage. Princeton
made nine OF these and Washington
and jefferson ten.
Rutgers ran back kickoffs a dis
lance Of 4s4 yards to opponents 419.
! Ftimbling was the chief defect in the
great Scarlet machine. Sixteen times
| they fumbled.
"When it in known that Rutgers
made 1S5 first downs to opponents
a., il gives some idea Of Rutgers
| offensive strength. it was common
| for Rutgers to march down the
| field, for first down after first down
| For instance, there were marches OF
| 50 yards, go yards, so yards and 8;
yards, against w. and j.; 20, so and n
yard marches against Syracuse.
During the season Rutgers wa;
penalized SIS times, and set back @
distance of 1856 yards, while opponents
received the censure of officials 81
times, and set back $50 yards.
Rutgers carried the ball a tota
distance of 2,702 yards, including linz
plays, passes and runbacks. In thii
connection 1t is interesting TO not
that the ground gained in this man
ner was 702 yards more than the mum
Der made by kicking,N Elmer Breaches
was the best ground gamer during tn
season, with $50 yards Rutgers mad
