football team jumped to their feet
and gavovn. rousing cheer for the
football player and coach.
Mr. Jones Spoke in part as follows:
"I hope I won't bore you to death.
Before I got up to speak Mr. “'hecler
Spoke about the fact that this meet-
ing was in charge of the Grievance
committee. In the past four- years
Grievance committees and have some
new ideas. I shall be glad to pass
these ideas along to the' committee
after the meeting.
"I assume that the reason that 1
have been asked to talk toyou is
because of the growing interest in
athletics. It luveryrdifiicult to talk
of things interesting you. I shall“
nndeavor’to tell you sonictliing'of
the growth of football over a. period
of 1: or 15 years. I have made this
statement; before: that the team
upon which I could have played
could have been chased out: of the
bowl by last“ year's team without tho
latter even getting a Invent up.
- Football in 1908.
“Let us consider the football of
1903. “'0 find that the gamo was
only played in college and the larger
prep schools. There was the Big
F‘otir.-—Ynlc. Harvard. Princeton and
Pennsylvania. There. is no minor
team today. \Ve of Yale have to be
carvfui that North Carolina doesn't
upset the apple cart. in the first
game of the scason.
“A few years ago. baseball was-
and is still played on sand lot in
tho country. It was ram to see a
football game.” Today football is
played by little Shavers on every
corner lot in the country. You can
so» how football has developed.
Thousands on" playing the game to-
day. it is play-ml in every High and
prep school: when the boys come
to culiegc thr-y are much more ad-
vanced tn knowlcdgo than they were
ten or fifteen years ago.
"Pick up a newspaper and watch
experts endeavor to pick an All-
American football team. I don't be-
lieve there is a; man here who could
choose bctwecn members of Yale's
team of last year. It is impossible
to (lt‘t'lLl'? who is who in football. I.
myself. dcplorc newspapors who play
up llll' individual rather than the
team.
“()ftcntimcs we are asked by what
score we would win had conditions
been dift‘ercnl at tho time of playing.
\i‘v lot, the other follow do the specu-
lating. \l'l; arc. satistiml so long as
we “in. ‘
I'lnyrrs and Business Mon.
"in the (it"vclnpltwnl of football
p‘aycrs. you tind all those attributes
which go Lo make up a good plnycr
also make good business men. It is
going according to tho rules of the
game which counts. Only a mull
\\ ho has a high sense of honor and
cloan ideals and contidctfio in him-
St‘lr makos a. good busingss man and
a. good football player. Football
taught to young men in the habit
forming stage of life is a wonderful,
I have had some experience with g
A-‘AA
tine thing‘ for the» development of
high ideals and character. I be]
[love that the great interest in, the
game is maintained because of this.
. "Milstcad came to Yale unknown.
I knew him; knew what. a. wonderful
player he was at Vi'abash. He wasn't
the left-cud. ’he was the left‘ line.
He played a. wonderful invidluai
ainc. Loolr what he did on the
Yale football team. He submerged
individualism to the team. I could
tell you about; Richards and. Stevens
aind other members of the team. men
who forget gel! and fitted in to be-
come a real 'part of the machinery of
the team.
"o“Absolutcly fair play. t only in
letter but in the spirit of rules. must
be lived up to. I am proud of that
team. Officials after games have
come to me and told me that they
were unable to find a man who en-
deavored to foul. Chances of win-
ning are better if men never foul.
, "I am glad the boys who make up
your High school eleven are here. It
is‘casicr for me to talk to boy: than
to men. 7 I have a message for them.
I have played and coached foot-
ball for IS to 20 years. There is on-
ly one type of man who can play the
game successfully. lie is the man
who can forget self for the good of
the tram. No is the fellow who ap-
preciates his obligation to team-
mates. captain, schoolmates. team
and School. If a man has not this
responsibility, no coach can make
him a. football player. No must be
a. boy of clean living. ready to make
any sacrifice at the request of his
captain. He must have a competitive
spirit to meet an opponent. He must
have self control: he must not lose
his temper. if he does lose his tem—
pcr he must hide it behind a smile
on his face. In closing 1 want to say
this; I have been identified with
Yale for many years. For {our
years. with the exception of last fear.
we failed to produce a winning team.
A season for us is not successful un-
less we beat Harvard and Prince-
ton. Last year we defeated both of
these colleges. But I take more sat-
isfaction out of the fact that our
team was made up of'mcn who think
more of playing fair than they do of
winning. Fair play and clean play
makes victory sweeter."

"mt-re chimera" and "‘provcd"

efforts must result in failure.

the title turuwl and the derision of
