THE SPORT REVIEW[. THE McGILL RUGBY STARTS PRACTICE. TEAM The McGill Students Want sil Bran- ches of Intercollegiate Athletics to Be Continued This Season as Us- nal, The Initial practice of the MeGill Intereollegiate rugby champions will be held this afternoon, with Coach Frank Shaughnessy in charge. Football is crowding on the basis of baseball, hut the candidate must for a time with work and mighty little calcium, Metcalfe, who played on the line and in. the scrimmage for Toronto Capitals last season, will not be ay ,as he is at Valeer with tha first Canadian contin gent. He is a son of J. H. Metcalfe, | Kingston. Unless Walter Johnson gets on a winning streek in short order, the "fireball" king may be luckly to fin ish the season with bétter than a 500 mark. Johnstone, Williams, Boucher and Broplty look like the best available for the Ottawa back line. Davie Mec- Cann, if be consents 'to play, will again be used 1s flying wing. Everybody wants to see McGraw's New York Giants get walloped. The fans generally don't care very much who does it as long as its done, This is the penalty too much success brings. : W. E. GI ("Glad") Murphy captain of the football team for this season, Murphy has been with the Scullers for a number, of seasons, and has had plenty of experience in senior ¢ompany. Murphy is formerly of Kingston. is At a special meeting of the McGill Student's Council, it was decided to write the Canadian Intercollegiate the con tinuance of all branches of sport, de- sp'te the war. Frank Shaughuessy, manager of the Ottawa bal club, received a wire from a ¢lass A club in the Western States asking him to name his own price to manage the club next season Shag replied tnat there was nothing doing. The Dorval park jockey club has written the minister of militia off- ering to give one day's proceeds ta: ken at the race track toward the Ca- nadian Patrioi'e fund. The condition is attached, however, that the minis ter of justice must cansent to extend the number of days of the racing season for the occasion from seven to eight, Montreal Star:--Although the Na- tionals had the most wonderful sea- son any local senior lacrosse club has ever had, winning all their mat ches but one, they lost between three and four thousand dollars. Their sa- laries cost $10,400; their trips tc Toronto $2,500. These, with equip- ment and general expenditures amounted to $14,600. Against that their receipts upon one - occasion weré as low as $125. The Alberta rugby union has de- cided not to play a schedule of game: this season. The football outlook iL Regina is not bright. The defection of the club in that city prompted the action of the union. Coach Fred Rit ter, a former Frinceton player, has joined the graduate coaching staf at the New Jersey university. The Manitoba union will now be in a po- sition to send down its annual threat to take the Dominion championshiy to the prairies without the formality of beating the Alberta champions in the semi-finals. PRAISE FOR ENEMIES. Russians Admire Intrepidity of Hun. garian Cavalry. Rome, Sept. 16--A despatch re ceived here from Petrograd expres ses admiration for the intrepidity 61 the Hungarian cavalry. It says thei: magnificent charges facilitated: the crossing of the San, Vistula and Dn- fester rivers of those of the Austrian: who survived defeat at the hands ol the Russians. Praise is given alsc to the Russian aviation corps, which, it is declared, flew out over the bat- tle lines and located important Aus. trian contingents in time to prevent their escape.
