Douibtless these grim batties in Canada'lts upper pigskin brackets haq their inici- dents of sportsmanship. But Bot the ind tewhich we reler. T'he mj-ost sportiîng gaine of ail was piayed on McGil's big football bowl, September 19, It was Canada's nearest api- proacli ta the Rose Bowl gaine tb.at its the peaki of United States college football blory. And, as in the Rose Bow] it was college, vs, college, and east vs, we-st. This gaine was of higlih sporting menit because itwa designed' for a fine plrpose, that of establishing, or contni- buting to a fund to make life briglter for canadian paraple- ic war heroes. LT.nversity of Britishl Cojumbia sent,ý its f'ootball team east to play MeGilI. The game was the flrst of what is planned to be an aninual event for the Wijnston Churchill trophy. The grini old British mwarrlor and statesman who defied Nazi air power at the lowest cbb of Allied hapes in the last World 'War, gave his consent to use Us fnaine for a trophy. Thiere is :à trophy record-book, whlch will be kept in a com- partment of the lainonus sculpture "'The Onslaught", a suitable receptacle, for the fine piece of wvork is by Dr. Tate MeIKerizie, famed Canadian sculptor.. a wvork that is the property of the Ujniversity of Pennsylvania and depicts with great vi.gor and vlbrancy, a charging football line, Each j'ear, tise auto- graphs of thse competing tennis wil bê inscribed lu thse ie- cord-book, and fit wil become, over the years, a valuable con- tribution to thse history of Canadiant colege football. The gaine was playod in the presenco of two of the Dorni- ion's most colcrful mayors -- Fred Hufme of Vancojuver and Cam'ilien Houdo of Môn-treail. Maýyor Hirno kicked off in this, thie first east-west college classic to aid the Canadian Paraplegic Association. Sirilar to fanious yearly Shriners Bowl gamnes in San Franisco each New YZear,'s Day for the benefit of crippled children, the Canadian I"Paraplogic Bowl" gamne is expected to become an annual attraction with the 1954 gaine to be played in Vancouver.e As the niost sporting football -aiâe"'fail, in Canada, this colun i eartily' commends it, for its scope, its sporting spirit and its fine ojecive.
