The Miami and Potawatomie Indians had suffered serious defeats at the hands of General Anthony Wayne along the Maumee River in 1794 and William Henry Harrison at the Battle of Tippecanoe in 1811. However, they still held the rights to the land in this area. There was a need for additional land for white settlement and the need to establish a canal system along the Wabash River. By the early 1820s the federal government had acquired Indian land south of the Wabash River except for the 760,000 acres in the Big Miami Reserve, but settlement was slow due to a lack of adequate transportation routes. In fact, there were no towns on the Wabash between Fort Wayne and Terre Haute until 1825 when a river boatman named Grigsby recognized the site of Lafayette as an excellent site for flatboat navigation and platted a town there.

Muller, Professor, Department of History ii Copyright © by W. Curtis Miner 2006 iii Level Playing Fields: The Democratization of Amateur Sport in Pennsylvania W. Curtis Miner, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2006 This dissertation examines how amateur sports once dominated and controlled by Pennsylvania’s Leisure Class became accessible to non-elites over the course of the twentieth century. Rising standards of living and increased leisure time were pre-requisites for broader public participation. But this study argues that the democratization of amateur sport depended on the active intervention of the state and, to a lesser extent, the market, both of which broadened access to privately controlled playing fields. In hunting, state game management restored wild game populations, thus ensuring a bountiful supply of game for all Pennsylvanians, irrespective of social class. Likewise, the first municipally owned golf courses, often situated in public parks, offered the only alternative to the private courses which up to that point dominated the game and regulated participation.

    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 23, No. 2 (2001) Football Chronology II The First Pros: 1884 to 1903 With rule changes that produced the scrimmage, downs and yards-to-go, and numerical scoring, Americans were playing a game that we today can recognize as football. In addition to the famous eastern college teams of Yale, Harvard and Princeton, athletic clubs developed football and other sports teams. To a great extent, the membership of these clubs was dependent on having successful teams. Outstanding athletes were recruited by offering free memberships, jobs, expenses, and probably pay, but, despite allegations, professionalism went unproved through the 1880s. This was important because a team proved to use professionals could be barred by the American Athletic Union from participation in all sports with AAU members – nearly all colleges and athletic clubs. 1884 Yale and Princeton were both undefeated but played a scoreless tie against each other. Rule Change Games were to be officiated by referee alone. Strategy Origin of V-trick credited to both Lehigh and Princeton. Origin of interference, called "guarding", in which two players ran alongside ball carrier to make tackling from the side more difficult. 1885 Princeton won all nine of its games. In England, Football Association passed rules restricting pro players. 1886 Once more Yale and Princeton went undefeated but played a scoreless tie with each other . 1887 Yale won its nine games. Rule Change Office of umpire created and given jurisdiction over players. 1888 William "Pudge" Heffelfinger entered Yale and immediately began starring at guard. The Elis went 13-0-0. Rule Change Prohibition of blocking with extended arms and legalization of tackling below the waist bring era of mass and momentum play.
