McGill Coming Here i in Force Montreal Gazette: Arrangements are completed by the executive of the McGill Rugby Club, to run a special train to King- | ston and return on Saturday for the | play off between McGill and Univer- sity of Toronto, for the senior Inter- | collegiate Rugby champlonship. The | spectal will be over the Grand Trunk, leaving Bonaventure s34on 8.30 and | arriving in Kingston af 12 o'clock in time to enable the passengers to reach |.the grounds in plenty of time tor the game. The special will leave Kingston shortly after the conclusion of the play so as to arrive back in Montreal at an early hour. The special rate of $12.05 has been secured for the | | trip. y | | Shaughnessy will hold a scrimmage | { practice each afternoon until Fri-| day, when the team will nuxely leave for Kingston. Anderson, who had | his knee injured, in the game against Toronto, will likely be in uniform for this afternoon, which will enable Shaughnessy to play the full senior | team against the intermediates and substitutes. > Toronto Mail and Empire. It is not generally known that the entire proceeds of the game over and | above the expenses, will be given to | Queen's University, to aid in defray- | ing the cost of the new stadium there. | This action was taken at the sugges- | tion of Varsity representatives and is to be highly commended. Queen's deserves recognition from McGill and Varsity. Queen's makes the Unjon, and in spite of reverses in almost every line of endeavor and in spite of large financial deficits which ac- crue from almost every line of sport in which it: takes part, Queen's has kept on shouldering the burden with- out a murmur. In turning over to Queen's all profits which result from the play-off, both Varsity and McGill are taking the most sensible and most sportsmanlike method of show- ing their appreciation of the efforts of Queen's in the maintenance of in- tercollegiate athletics and it is to be Puffed Up Corns ?

Regina, champions of western Canada, have asked to be allowed to come east to play off for the title, and no doubt will be accommodated if satisfactory arrangements can 'be completed. Financial terms are also an import- ant item to be settled in regard to If Varsity win on Saturday against McGill, they will play off with the winner of Saturday's game. Arrangements for the intermediate and junior "anadian play-offs are also. being arranged by Hugh Gall {and Billy Foulds. HEAVYWEIGHTS ARE BEST - AT AGE OF TWENTY-SIX They say Jack Dempsey is better now than he will be a year hence. Heavyweights are said to be at their They start go- ing back at 27 or 28, and roll off on passing 30. A list of champions of the past proves this. The list fol- lows: -- z John L. Sullivan at the age of, 34 was knocked out by Jim Corbett. Jim Corbett was past 30 when he was knocked out by Fitzsimmons. Fitzsimmons was 37 when he kiss- ed the canvas at Coney Island and Jim Jefferies was made champion. Jim Jefferies was 35 when Jack Johnson put the skids under him at Reno. Jack Johnson was 37 when he play- ed the dying gladiator to Jess Wil- lard at Havana, Cuba, Willard claims that he was 32 years of age when Dempsey dropped him at Toledo. Thirty seems to be the dangerous age. Big Price for Horse. Bill Sharon, 2.11%, has purchased for $25,000 by T. W. Murphy, Poughkeepsie, N.Y. Bill Sharon was bred by Samuel J. Boyle, of Fred- erickton, who sold him last spring to Mr. Alcorn, St. Stephen, N.B., for $3,600. He was five years old in September last and is a chestnut stallion. He was sired by Captain Aubrey, 2.07%, a son of the famous Peter the Great, which was purchas- ed by the Nova Scotia government some years ago. His dam was Nor- roway W., 2.18%, by Lookaway. He goes to the Grand Circuit with an unbeaten record after nineteen races on the halft-mile tracks. CARPENTIER BOOSTS DEMPSEY: "Jack ~ mpsey is the finest physi- cal spec n I have ever seen," said Georges Larpentier, champion heavy- weight of Eur . "It would be an error to underrate him. In my opin- jon whoever gets in the first good blow will win the fight." Carpentier is reported as having made $185,000 in America; $150,- 000 of which he immediately spent to subscribe to the French loan. The fastest time average of the past season on the Grand Circuit was 2.06.33, at Toledo's second meeting. OTTAWA FAVORS VARSITY The Ottawa Journal has the fel-| lowing comment: v Viewing the game from this angle, it looks as though Varsity will go into the game slight favorites in theory at least. On the round, they have a more impressive scoring re- cord than MoGilk They will have Hobbs and Westman back in the game. The addition of Hobbs should speed up their team, as he is un- doubtedly a whirlwind quarter back, in all probability the best in the game today. Joe Smith declares he Is the best he has seen in_his knocking around football teams, and his word should be some authority. Westman is a great line plunger, and this com- bination will add almost 25 per cent. t the strength of the blue and white. It looks like an even break, and {| you can take your choice. Person- i ally, we would like to see McGill win, | but favor Varsity. The team that gets | the initial break is going to have a | lot to say in the verdict. ENGLISH GIRLS PLAY FOOTBALL IN PARIS The English women's football team from Preston played their first match | Monday against their French sisters --a representative team----at the Stade Pershing, Vincennes. The rg- sult was a draw of one goal each. Miss Kell, captain of the English team, who half-time was disposing of a bowl of hot coffee, said: "The French girls are much better on their own ground, and they have learned a lot since they were in England. Their goalkeeper, Miss Ourry, has been at Dick Kerr's for some months, and we trained her. She has certainly given a good account of her training to- day." France scored the first goal in the first half. The equalizing goal was scored by Miss May Lyons, inside-left, who, returning a goal kick, dropped the ball clean into the corner of the net. | The British team is going to play at Roubaix on Monday, after which they are to visit Ypres and Armen- tieres. The final matches are to be played 'on Baturday and Sunday at Rouen and Havre. ' BLAMES OFFICIALS, NOT RULES. Toronto Globe: If the revised rules of football have served no other pur- pose this season, they have ctimulat- ed discussion and elicited some ex- pressions of opinions fr.m well- known authorities that ought to be worth careful weighing by those who compose the rules committee. Prof. Malcolm, who has been putting the Queen's team through its paces, be- lieves that the rules, as they now exist, are on the whole satisfactory, bu: he does suggest some few minor changes. He would award the ball to) the team not offerling when a player is guilty of bLolding. Prof. Malcolm, who is a member of the rules committee, aiso expresses the opinion that the present code would be found much more acceptable if officials could be found who" would enforce them strictly. Boxing Pays Well, The first official figure dealing with the operation of Ntw York state's boxing law, made public by "Charles White, secretary of the com- mission, shows that §44,000 in taxes on boxing exh itions has already been collected. This is $4,000 in ex- cess of the state's appropriation for the first year's expenses of the com- mission. Mr. White also announced that the commission has issued 1,205 licenses, including 603 to boxers, 165 to man- agers, 75 to referees, 68 to judges, 212 to seconds, 26 to timekeopers | and 34 to trainers and physicians.

We bet on some games, and then found we were mixed, 'and all because baseball, it seems, had been fixed. Here's hoping that football 'will 'keep itself clean, but still we must doubt it from some things we've seen. It's early, but charges of graft should be made before half the games of the season are played. We feel it our duty, as lovers of sport, te have grafting charges al sifted in court. There's grafting in football; we tell it with shame, but we're going to reveal it, whoever's to blame, and if someone is canned for the graft that he took, it's nothing in our lives if he gets the hook. The very first game that we witnessed this year, a left tackle jumped on a right tackle's ear. The quarterback then, with a series of blows, . kicked &ff about half of the left tackle's nose..
