Smith Will Go to National
League Meeting in Search of
Few More Men for Crackers
By Percy 11. Whiting.
rpHE Atlanta Baseball ussm-ia-
I tion will have to split up its
talent in December, for twr
important meetings occur so near
together as to conflict. These two
are the National league session in
New York and the Southern leagu.
meeting in Little Rock.
Bill Smith will take in the Na
tional league Session. He has an
idea he can connect up with a
player or two there, and even if hr
doesn’t, a trip there will put him in
touch with the National league
managers, which is something that
he wants.
This will mean, no doubt, that
President Frank Callaway, and
perhaps one or two of the' direc
tors, will make the long hike over
to Little Rock for the Southern
league session, which begins De
cember 15.
qOUTHPAW ZELLERS, formerly
a star at Macon and last year
considerable of a portside flinger
in the local city league, has been
promised a try-out with the Crack
ers next spring.
Zellers visited baseball headquar
ters yesterday, talked things over
with Manager Smith and will turn
out early and get in shape.
Director Charles Nunnally, of the
baseball association, is a strong
booster for Zellers and believes hr
will make good.

Great Harvard Back Helped Pile Up 17 Out of 20 Points Against Yale
HARDWICK MOST VERSATILE MAN IN FOOTBALL
By L. R. Murdock.
(Sporting Editor of Hearst’s Bos
ton American.)
BOSTON, .MASS,, Nov. 30.
While "Boots” Brickley is
naturally head-lined as the
Harvard hero of 1912, and Bob Stor
er and Sam Felton crowd him for
tiie top of column honor, it has
almost been overlooked that the
Yale game produced tile most ver
satile man in football, snd that
Huntington R. Hardwick, the light
ning left halfback of the Crimson
team, is the fellow whereof we
speak.
In the imaginary All-American
elevens which will be devised by
the “experts” of the country,
Hardwick will likely be overlooked
by many. But if the writer had a
football team all his own, he would
rather have Hardwick working
therein titan any other man in foot
ball outside of tiie Harvard team—
and this goes for Jim Thorpe or
any other star of the game.
The truth, evident to all who
watched the New Haven pastime
closely, is brought out very clear
ly by Coach Percy D. Haughton,
the Harvard football master, In his
own review of the Crimson tri
umph. This shows how Hardwick
participated in Hie system scoring
of 17 of the 20 points.
What Hardwick Did.
According to Haughton, who de
vised the Harvard system of of
fense and defense and who worked
out for Harvard the Yale game the
ory, this is what Hardwick did:
He became the eighth and most
important man on the scrimmage
line in the Harvard attack. This
eight-man line was Harvard's most
successful progressive device.
He acted as left end when Fel
ton was drawn back to punt.
He was called upon frequently to
run with the ball from behind the
line, principally for end runs.
He was frequently on the line of
scrimmage as the principal inter-
i good line, Cook would look as good
is most any 'of them. He is a shade
ight, but can stand all sorts of punish
ment. A great player!
Taylor is a magnificent runner with
the abll and a splendid drop kicker. His
tackling and interference are too weak
to let him get on our team.
Folger is good around the ends and
in slashing through quick openings. He
is tall and fast and has a wonderful
eye for judging forward passes. In
pulling these down he is without a peer
in the South today. In other depart
ments he needs work and experience.
Haxton is a real good 'halfback, al
beit a trifle clumsy. There is no doubt
of his ability to gain ground against
most any team down here. Still he
lacks the necessary brilliancy for this
berth.
Now for Hardage. No one, I pre
sume, will deny my right to set him
down as the one best bet of the year.
So I set him down.
This chap is one sure enough half
back. For that matter, he was so the
very first year he ever played college
football. And this is his fourth on a
varsity team. With each passing year
he has become fleeter of foot and
stronger of muscle, to say nothing of
the steady acquisition of football
knowledge. He is as shifty on his feet
as a squirrel, yet runs with a power
that breaks the hold of a would-be tac.
kier at least half the time. His defen
sive ability is quite satisfactory, and
added to this he is one of the best for
ward passers of the year. He is strict
ly in a class with the best halves the
South has produced. 1 would put him
at rear guard on our defense. Wouldn’t
he bring back the punts?
Newell Lacks Only Weight.
Os the remaining four, Newell is the
weakest. This is mainly because he
only weighs 146 pounds. So far as
speed, driving power for his weight,
. xperience, clear-headedness, sureness
on handling the ball and inside play
are concerned, he is not behind the
others. He conies as near being a star
as any man on Auburn's line-up. I do
not consider him as good at blocking
as Collins, nor as powerful in open field
running as McWhorter. But for his
weight I consider him the best half
back of the y ear. But I drop him.
< 'ollins is considerably heavier than
Newell, and by reason thereof can bet
ter tear loose from tacklers. He runs
fearlessly with the ball and plays with
great nerve and stability. He also is a
very fast man. Altogether, he would
be a valuable addition to any team in
the country, and in another year he
should attain premier honors in the
South. He is up against exceptionally
good men in this comparison, but there
is no discounting the general splendor
of his game. 1 count him out.
This narrows the field to McWhorter,
and him I choose again for right half
back.
This decision will. 1 fancy, not give
entire satisfaction. Certain it is that
McWhorter can not tackle like some
other halfbacks, can not interfere like
others, can not buck as do others, etc.
But McWhorter has improved in these
respects over his work of last year.
Yes; he has put up one or two below
par games this season, but he had been
ill and had not fully recovered his

serer in secondary defense.
When Harvard kicked he was
expected to go down the field, cov
ering Felton’s punts, as an end.
When Yale kicked lie, with Gard
ner. was depended upon to catch
punts and run them back.
He was chosen to make the
puntouts from behind the line.
He was called upon to kick the
goals after touchdowns.
How He Did It.
This is what Haughton says of
his success:
“Although a strong line plunger
and capable of running the ends,
Hardwick was doing more than his
share by acting as an end, while
Felton was kicking. I doubt if
more duties were ever placed on
one player than were assigned to
Hardwick.
“It surely takes a versatile ath
lete to do so many different jobs,
and I am confident no other man
could have done them all up to
the hilt as did Hardwick.”
Haughton declares that the Har
vard attack was naturally built up
about he kicking of Felton and
Brickley, but, after the Princeton
game, when it was discovered that
Harvard- might reasonably hope to
realize its long-standing ambition
to crash though Yale got a touch
down, a scheme of line-rushing, was
evolved and Hardwick’s versatil
ity caused him to be chosen as the
central factor in that only inno
vation employed.
Tills innovation was tiie eight
man scrimmage line. This is what
Haughton said of that plan:
“By this simple operation tile of
fensive line of scrimmage was suf
ficiently lengthened to accomplish
one of two results.
“If the opposing tackle went out
to meet tiie flanking movement it
meant that the defensive line was
so much weakened.
If, on tiie otiier hand, this tackle
neglected to observe the flanking
man, lie was subject to an attack
had been below par. he could not be
given the position; but such has not
been the case. Against Alabama, Se
wanee, Tech and Auburn he played his
old-time game; and as he is now
stronger, knows more football and tac
kles better than ever, I think, on the
whole, that he is deserving of the place.
I frankly admit, though, that had
Fletcher not been ruled out I would
have selected him for quarter and prob
ably have placed Sikes at half along
side of Hardage, with Tolley second
choice at quarter.
By Way of
Acknowledgment.
the players thus far considered
are above the average in playing
ability, and are, 1 consider, the cream
of the talent. There is not one of them
but deserves more eneoniums and
stronger commendation than I have had
room or time for.

on his outside.
"By thus removing a. halfback
from his customary position it
might lie supposed that tiie run
ning attack was weakened by one
third, but since the introduction of
the rule forbidding any assistance
to the man carrying tiie ball it
lias been extremely difficult to util
ize all three backs to their full ef
ficiency. especially in plays running
at the line.
"Furthermore, Harvard had two
men of exceptional ability in Cap
tain Wendell and Brickley. and it
was, therefore, decided that these
two men were capable of carrying
the brunt of our direct attack."
Result of Hardwick's Play.
That the use of Hardwick in the
manner stated was successful is
shown by these incidents of tile
game, all of which figured In the re
sult:
First. When Flynn kicked 60
yards from behind his own goal
near the beginning of the first pe
riod—one of the longest punts ever
made against Harvard —forcing
Gardner to fumble, there occurred
Hardwick's first remarkable play.
Haughton describe.'-.! it as follows:
“Tile ball was loose and Bonn is
let’ was just about to pick it up
with a clear field ahead of him.
At that moment Hardwick made
one of tiie cleverest plays I have
ever seen. Instead of trying for the
ball himself, he went after Bonteis
ler and, by a perfect piece of block
ing, knocked him off his feet, which
enabled Brickley to recover the
ball. If Yale had scored on this
play, it would have seriously affect
ed the morale of the Harvard
team."
Second. When Hardwick ran
down the field under a Felton
punt, bumped Wheeler and the lat
ter fumbled. On this play Storer
recovered the ball for the first
touchdown.
Third. When Flynn muffed a
Felton punt on Yale's 17-yard line
in the third period. This was
where the eight-man play accom
plished the only touchdown which
was made without the aid of a Yale
misplay.
Haughton described this most
graphical)). He said:
"The third quarter had hardly
begun when Flynn fell a victim to
one of Felton’s punts, ami it was
Harvard’s ball on Yale's 18-yard
line. On the next play occurred
one of the most peifecr offensive
moves I have ever wltm sseil. Gard
ner ordered Hardwick on the right
end of Harvard’s line, giving the
eight men on tiie line formation,
which 1 have previously described.
The Yale left tackle either failed to
observe Hardwick on his Hank or
else anticipated a rush through the
line, for he failed to assume his
proper position.
"Gardner was quick to recognize
ids mistake and ordered wiiat is
commonly known as 'a skin tackle
play.’ Brickley was given the ball,
and with W endell as ills only in
terferer, stalled toward Yale's
left end.
“Wendell took out the end com
pletley. Hardwick boxed the tac
kle as eompletl. -y and Brickie.' tii.'-u
proceeded to run around Yale's en
tire back field, who. I assume, had
also anticipated a line plunge. Tills
scored a touchdown.”
Fourth. After Brickley had inter
cepted Pumpeliy's forward pass in
the third period and had run 42
yards, it was Hardwick who ran
around Yale’s left end and took
Gardner's sudden forward pass,
placing the ball on Yale’s eight
yard line, where Brickley kickei?
bis second goal from field.
Fifth. After Brickley scored his
touchdown, Hardwick punted out
so successfully that he was able to
kick a goal himself as neatly as he
did after Storer's touchdown.
