Coach Shaughnessy was con- {vinced by the siyle, of play in the game that the Canadian rules are supegior to those of the United States."

These 'changes will likely be offered by Mc- {Gill at the annual meeting of the Ine tercollegiate Rugby Football Union, Regarding the forward - pass, Shaughnessy haid that in his opinion it was a dismal failuce. It was tried on several occasions during the game and 'the teams were unsuccessful in their efforts to pull off plays hinging on a forward pass. He also suggested that the penalty for offsidé Interference be changeu, so that a side offending would not lose possession of the ball on the first or second down, but should: be penalized fifteen yards. On the third déwn the team offending should lose possession of the ball Shaughnessy will now resume his work with the McGill hockey play- ers. ~ He started the forwards at shooting practice in the gymnasium yesterday, by having. them. shoot at* a target from about - the distance that shots would be made on the ice.
