Interprovincial un. long, in both of which there are tight rices for the title, In the college un: lon Varsity goes to Montreal and must defeat McGill to remain within reaching distance of ueen's, who will entertain fhe greatly improved Western Ontario squad, In the big Four the outstanding fixture Is the visit of the Montreal Winged Wheel: ots to this city where they meet the Argonauts, Botly "elubs wre still in the hunt for the championship, Mon. tread being tied with 'the Hamilton Tigers for first 'place and the Scullers only un game back and still a mathe- matical possibility for 'the title, Of the elght games carded the Ars gonauts- Montreal Is the one that is attracting the greatest' interest al though both the college 'games have possibilities, Varsity and Queen's should win but upsets Have been few und far between this year, and sev: eral ure wverdue, There is a fecling in' some 'yuarters that the Tricolor Iv going to get & big sueprise when they try to lussoo Jor Breen's Mus tungs and ¢ them Into the corral, In their it" threo: gates the Lon- doners showed stage fright in the early periods and on each occasion their upponents secured a command. ing lead before half time which was nore than sufficient ww offset the Mustang's strong. relly,, Now that they have experienced, the thrill of setting the pace they are lable to break away as soon us the gates are opened and the Tricolor may get a rude surprise, but it is more than probable that the SApS Hence of the Queen's squad will pyll them through to thelr Hitth successive victory, Hamilton's visit to Ottawa will be interesting only because the 'Ligers rubbed it into the Senators by a 55 to 0 count a week ago Saturday and the rejuvenated Ottawa team will be out to secure as muh revenge as Josetice hy holding the Tanks to a UW score Kitchener and Camp Borden end thelr seasons ut Camp Borden and the algmen lo. keuw doomed to finish the schedule without a victory, This will enable the Panthers to finish in econd place as St. Michael's ure out likely to take two straight from Bal my Beuch, Sarnia plays in Hamilton and should make it five in a row Argonauts had a long and heavy workout Wednesdiy in preparation for the alldmportant struggle against Montreal here on Saturday, 1here were no ubsentees from tie squad and Coach Buck McKenna donned a unis form himself, This. was due to a statement made last week that if Montreal won from the Tigers he would get inte a suit two nights this week and the members of the squad didn't pass up any chances to show the conch by actual demonstration thut they knew how to tackle and tackle hard, Hank Sinclair is fitting into the plays nicely, and there is no doubt that he will get frequent action on Saturday although it is not likely that the Scullers will make any changes in their starting line-up frgm that which started against Ottawa last Saturday, The Big Four game at Varsity sta- dium will get under way at J.1§ on Saturday, the Orphanss Windsor O,R, FU, clash being the first hall of the doubleheader and starting at 1.30 sharp: There has already been a big demand for seats and Indications are that the attendance will be the lars xost that has witnessed the Scullers in action locally for a, number of years, The advance raled have been especially brisk and already officers of the Argonauts are gettin res quests to aid in securing pasteboards but their answer ta one and all is "Get them at the agencies, we haves not any." "And they mean it, The Double Blue worked out again last night, but .. the boys are at the top of their form now they will be given a holiday today so that they will not be stale, The locals were somewhat unlucky to loge by one point at Montreal and are deters mined to give the Winged Wheelers championship hopes a severe jolt this week-end but the Montrealers are playing brilliant football and, th will take a lot of beating, Bil Hughes is a smart rugby coach and knows how to get the best out of hiv men, He is credited with havi much to do with the win over the Ti pers through his halftime exhortas tation in the Montreal dressing room. Like the Argonauts the Winged Wheelers have a number of playe: who are showing in senior conga for the first time and there are gon four or five players from the | Canadian intermediate champions, Canadian Nationals, who have delive ered in no uncertain way, These ins clude Wally Whitty, the kicking hall and Rartnet of Red Moore on the half line, Haynes, the quarter back, Red Tellier, the snap, and Hempey, a middle wing, Ia addition there are Gordie Perry on the half line, Clary Foran, and Garbarine, the only Italian player in senior rughy, In addition to Johnsten and Armstrong the locals have several first-year men doing great work with them this seas son. hut they have increased Much Interest squad this week by the promotion of six of the junior team, which gives them a total of 29 players in the squad, quite an wrmy, ------ Varsity Is just one practise away from the game against McGill on Sa~ turday us Conch McPherson announ~ ced Wednesday that there would be no morning practice next day, the layers having shown lots of pep and eenness In the la. i two works, Most of the time was devoted to both ends of the interference problem, makin and breaking and the conch is - satisfied with the results, The scare that the Blue and White was given in London last Saturday hus driven any over-confidence out of their systems and they are paying strict attention to their knitting this week, While they should defeat McGill with more than the ordinary amount of ease the same was the opinion be- fore they met Western Ontario lust Saturday, The squad will work out again this afternoon and will end up with » serimmuge against the Orphans, but this latter part will be of short du ration, Wednesday's serimmage was devoted solely to making interference for the various plays when Varsity had possession and later on the Or hans were ghvon the ball and the Bile squad tried their hands at break ing up the interference, The squad will lenve at nine o'clock Friday morn ng for Montreal, Juck Sinclair and Jog Kelly, the two regulars who have been out of the last two and three games respectively, ure back at mid season form and they will be wvail able for use but probably will not be 'sent into action unless absolutely ne COABATY, -- This Varsity Junior tean which looks to be well on its way to the Intercollegiate final is by no means a light outht, even Couch ! Carroll being surprised by the avolrdupais of his squad of 20° players, Previous to the game against Queen's h had each of the players step on the scales and their weights, in uniform, were: Litowite, 163; King, 166; Hod. gotts, 182; Cutler, 160; Magladery, 185; Ship, 160; Patterson, 1720; Fear, 185; Cwerling, 200; Shapiro, 175; Mes Gibbon, 185; Stubbs, 155; Brown, 162 Ellsworth, 150; Mud 160; Rogers, 181; Booth, 200; Rottenberg, 185; Gibson, 180; and Hume, 168; This gives the squad an average weight of 171 pounds, The Varsity Orphans are getting one good break this season at least, They have lost thelr four games so fur in the senior OQ. RFU, the last two to Hamilton after each had gone into overtime and they play at home ont Saturday and then have their final game in Sarnia. This was scheduled for Saturday, Nov, 9, but Sarnia sug- gested that the game be moved furs ward to Wednesday, Nov, 6, and this was more than satisfactory to the Orphans as it will enable them to see their opponents of four and five days a eo the Intercollegiate squad, In action here against Queen's on Nov, 9 When Western Ontario Played here the Orphang were in Vindsor and on the occasion of the McGill game the second team was in Hamilton, The change in dates will also benefit Sarnia as they, as group champions will have to playoff for the O.RFU, title on Thanksgiving day and the new arrangements will give them a five days' rest instead of Just over Sunday, Many Watch Workout Of Maple Leafs Close to two thousand interested spectators viewed the first workout of the 'Maple Leafa at the Arena Gardens at noon yesterday, It was a fine greeting for Conny Smythe's N.H.L. representatives, and for more than an hour they gave the rallbirda plenty of action, With the exception of "Rolly" Conacher, every man on the squad was on the ice, Nothing was at- tempted In the way of lining up two teams, and It was noticeable that body-checking was taboo, It was the first time on akates alnce last spring for most of the Leafs and until they get that shaky feeling out of their mba the more atrenu- ous shock-absorbing sessions will be delayed. It is expected' that by the middle of next week they will be down to serious business, with everybody going full » taking and handing out the bumps that are to be expected in a league fix ture. "Rolly" Connacher ia laid. up with a bad knee injury and may not be able to get on the ice for a week or more yet, During a softball game at Port Blgin last Friday he was struck on the knee by a bat which slipped out of the hands of a player who was swings ing at the ball, The injury ta a painful one, although it ia not thought to be serious, Connacher ia heavier than Toronto fans have ever seen him, and, although he was not expected to make a us lar position with the Leafs thia season, it wan thought he would develop Into a usetul substitute, Following the p ce sesanlon, the players were guests of the club directors at a luncheon in the King Edward Hotel, President Bd Rickh addressed them briefly, welcoming them back to the olty and promis ing the heartiest co-operation for the coming campaign, The Leats will play an exhibition game at Fort Erie a week from tonight Balmy Beach Want Series Two Games Bulmy Beach Club officials are EU hopeful of meeting Sarnis be fore an Toronto crowd, The East End senior team, which has tramp ed a rough and lonely road in the OW, senior eeries during Lhe past five yeurs, facing finance! ob sacle that would have folded up many a better situsted organises tion, has appealed to the O.R.¥.U. for a home-and-home final series with Bavula Imperials, providing both are group winners in thelr respective sections, To pave the way for u possible meeting of the teams on this basis, been | Balmy Beach has arranged with St | | Michael's College to play the fina kame of the league season scheds uled for Nov, § on Wednesday, Nov, 6, ut Oskwood Stadium, The wama day Sarnin Imperiale meet the "Orfuns' in Sarnia in & game through an extensive practice, Dao | that has also heen moved up from spite the rain, the mud and the fog, (NOV: 9, That would leave boty the plays were working splendidly, Concl) | Benchears and the Tmperinls 81 Pound finally let them go and maybe | ¢pen dato on Nov, §, and It is the they' weren't: xind proposal of the Old Gold and Blue .
