HeHelfnger First Running Guard,
Broke Up Princeton:s Flying Wedge
BY RED GRANGE
The Original Man-in- Motion

No football season is complete
without a story about Fudge Hef-
felfinger. generally considered
the greatest guard of all time.
When he stood out at Yale
everybody but the center car
ricd the ball and six-foot-two,
2lO-pound William w. Heffel-
finger practically ran amuck.
Heffelfinger broke up the W
shaped flying wedge as a fresh
man in 1888 to give the Ellis a
100 victory over Princeton in
a meeting of teams that had
compiled amazing records.
The Tiger. the ball carrier
screened by the phalanx, had
amaSScd no fewer than 600
points to rivals six, Harvard
alone having been able to score.
The Bulldog matched this record
with the imposing total of 6O2
and all opponents shut out.
Heffelfinger, now in the pub
fishing business in Minneapolis,
tells me about that Titanic en-
gagcment staged at the old Polo
Grounds at 10th Street in New
York on Thanksgiving Day.
HEFFELFINGER HIT APEX
In those days a team could
run with the ball from the start
without kicking off. A field goal
counted five points.
Princeton started with the ball
in mid-field. Old Nassaus hith-
crto irresistible flying wedge
met an immovable object, how
ever. in the form of giant first
wear left guard, whom the illus
triouS quarterback, Edgar Allen
Poe, unhappily chose as the
young man covering the most
spot in the opposition.
Poe, first Of Princeton's re-
markable family, probably took
lllO COllSl(ltI a llOll IiSiIClllllsti -
lack Of experience. That is the
only way TO account for his mis-
take.
Anyway, time and again the
wedge, led by the All-America
tackle. Hector CoWan, flattened
out in humping into the bulky
Hcffelfinger.
Seeking the apex man on the
Jaw did not stop the play" re-
calls Heffelfinger. Il broke it
up by backing up yard or two
and taking off like broad jump
or. With my knees doubled up |
hit the leader full on. The others
piled on top of him. They didn't
gain a foot"
As Heffelfinger wrecked play
after play, CoWan, built like a
oiIlbox. shouted; Hey, you ii
kill someone"
The daily monitor leader. [volume] (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1942-19??, 1944-12-14

On each occasion Billy Bull
drop-klckcd the ball between up
rights for the only scoring in a
terrific battle.
Princeton thus suffered its
only defeat and Yale completed
the campaign unbCaten and UNI
scored on.
1t was two autumns later that
Pudgc HCftelfinger conceived
the idea and became the first
guard TO pull out of the line and
run Interference.
That was one Of the great
contributions TO football.
The daily monitor leader. [volume] (Mount Clemens, Mich.) 1942-19??, 1944-12-14

Heffelfinger offered to call the
whole thing off if Princeton dis
carded the wedge. The Tiger re-
fused. so Hcff rCtaliatcd by re-
peatcdly hitting the apex and
