SEVERAL MILLIONS
Parke Davis, Noted Football Sta
tistician, Complies Figures Show
ing Popularity of Great
Collegiate Sport

New York, January 2O.-Figures
showing the popularity of intercollegi-
ate football during the season of 1913
have been compiled by Parke Davis,
Princeton's member of the rules COM
mittee, and a noted sport statistician.
According to his data 400 colleges and
5000 schools throughout the country
were represented by elevens last au-
tumn.
approximately 4S,2oo games were Up
for decision and 100000 players par
ticipated in the contests and practice.
Placing the average attendance at
these games as low as 800, the total
attendance would not be far from 49,
000, 900
The statistics record some unusual
feats, including long runs, field goal
kicks, high scores and peculiar plays.
The longest goal from the field was u
placement kick of so yards scored by
Carl Woodward of Tulane university
against st. Louis university.
Longest Drop Kick
The honor for the longest drop kick
scoring goal goes to a school boy.
James NJ Porter of McKinzie school,
who in a game against Hackley school,
sent the ball spinning over the bar 45
yards distant.
The longest goal from a drop kick
by college player in 1918 was the 49,
yard goal by H A. ii. Baker of Prince
ton against Yale.
Separated from Baker by a single
yard are r. II. Calvin of Pittsburg and
H. p. Tallman of Rutgers.
Two other placement kicks entitled
to mention We're a 45-yard goal
against New York university, and a
46-yard goal by H. A. H. Baker of
Princeton against Holy Cross
Brickley Kicks Most
The record for the greatest number
of field goals by a single player in one
game goes to Charles E. Brinkley of
Harvard. who scored five against Yale
Pressing him closely is the schoolboy
performer, Porter, who in the game
against Hackley referred to, kicked
three other goals from the field, all
by drop kocks, making four for the
day.
The longest run of the year was ac-
complished by II. w. Richards of Pitts
one yard behind his own goal line ran
101 yards for touchdown.
One of the surprising features of 1912
was the frequency of these runs from
kick off. Hitherto they have been so
rare that seldom more than one has ap-
peared throughout a season.
In the autumn just past not less than
nine occurred in the larger games.
The analysis of long runs showed
that a majority of these began with
an interpreted forward pass.
Freak Scores
The following freak scores were
rolled up during 1913:
Newberry, 159; b. M. l., 0.
Allegheny 116; Wooster, 0.
Gallaudel, 103; Baltimore. 0.
Louisville, 100; Washington, o.
Washington and jefferson, 100; Grove
City, 0.
| An opposite cause of distinction is
| found in the record of New York uni
versity, which played eight games
without achieving a single victory or
scoring a SINCE point.

Sign Contracts With
New League
RANKS OF AMERICAN
AT LAST INVADED
Yankee Star Goes to Chicago, While
Willet Becomes Property of st.
Louis Club-More Umpires
Are Signed by Gilmore

Chicago, January 20.-While repre-
sentatives of organized baseball again
predicted its early demise, the Federal
T, league today continued collecting ma
jor league ball players, signing three
pitchers as well as completing a quar-
tet of umpires. The pitchers signed are
Russell Ford of the New York Amer
icans who will be with the Chicago
Federals, Howard CamnitZ of the Phil
adelphia Nationals, who will go either
tc indianapolis or Pittsburg, and Edgar
Willett, the Detroit pitcher, who was
signed by Mordecai Brown, manager
of the st. Louis team of the new league.
The effort to gain possession of a
Northside plot on which the new league
is to play ball here, was won by the
Foderals today, according to President
Gilmore and Charles Weeghman. head of
the local club. The Federal leaguers
outgeneraled and outbd representa-
tives of organized ball in the effort
to get the strip, they said, but Pres
ident johnson of the American league,
denied all knowledge of an attempt to
balk them.
President Johnson. however, said
that opposition of nearby property own
ers might prevent the opening of the
Federals' season here, and at the same
time, said he hoped for the good of
baseball" that the Federals would be-
gin their season, though he pronounced
absurd any hope that the league would
succeed.
With the signing of Steve Cusaek, the
former National Lacquer, who was with
the Three-I league last year; Monte
Cross, the former star infielder and c.
c. Bush. once a big league umpire,
President Gilmore's staff includes four
veteran arbitra tors. William Brennan
having signed Yesterday
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-01-21

he will succeed in steering clear from
any entanglements with the Nap boss.
Denser and denser are growing the
clouds that are hanging over base
ball. and should the Federals main
tain the aggressiveness that they are
displaying at present a real baseball
war, such as has not been evidenced
since the days of the American lea>>a
invasion, is not unlikely. Hitherto the
vested interests of organized ball have
been making no attempt to impede
the progress of the new league, but
the occurrences of yesterday when.
with one swoop, the newcomers Sc
cured three of the most prominent
players in the majors, is likely to
prove the last straw. Russell Ford
the star finger of the Yankees Edgar
Willett a stellar performer for Hugh
Jennings Tigers, and Howard Cam
nitz of the Phillies. decided yesterday
to cast their fortunes with the new
league, and that real battle is on
between the majors and the Federals
seems probable. Ford has signed with
the Chicago club Willett with the
st. Louis club, while Camnitz will
go with either the Pittsburg or In
dianapodis club.
The signing of this trio of big
leaguers thoroughly demonstrates that
the newcomers mean business and
that their attempt to buck the majors
is no grandstand play for publicity
1t has been claimed by big league
magnates that the only players being
secured by the Federals were old
timers who were nearing the end of
their usefulness and that they would
not be missed, but the signing of these
three, especially Ford and Willett,
turns an entirely different light on
the situation. The signing of the two
American league stars signifies that
the Federal intends to gain players
from both leagues alike, and will not
confine their attack to the National
as has been predicted. What effect
this will have on the attitude of the
two majors is not known, but it is
more than likely that Ban johnson
will not submit to such treatment
without at least putting up some kind
of battle.
