A meeting of the Mercantile Lea- gue was held on Friday night in the rooms of the London Life Insurance Company with President Kane in the chair. The gathering was called te deal particularly with tho cas- aris- ing out of the mix-up duriag the game between Retailers and Insur- ance on August 22nd. From evidence given at that meet- ing, it now turns out that the player who was suspended by the president on the field at that game was not rearly so much in the wrong as first appeared. The umpire admits that he was partly to blame, and the gen- eral ragging of both men by members of other Mercantile teams rence has been set down to a little hot-headedness on both sides. . However, the action of the presi- dent has been upheld by the league with the amendment that the player in question be reinstated if he so re- quests in the proper manner, he decisions of the meeting were reach- ed in short time and every aspect of the evening's work was very orderly and satisfactory, ------------ PLUMBERS VS, MOVIES? Seven All Game Played on Saturday Afternoon, Plumbers and Movies, famous rivals of their section in the Mer- cantile League this year, met again at the cricket field on Saturday after- noon, and after a good game, the Score stood seven all, Both teams were crippled by lack of some of their regular players but managed to put fairly strong teams on the field. Davison, Plumbers' manager, took the mound and did good work. Quinn pitched his usual steady game for the Movies, although Manager Whitty was not on hand to direct operations.

Requests All Players to Maintain Highest Stand- ard of Play, The new rule Canadian Rugby book issued by the Union contains the | constitution and official Playing rules | as revised this year by the rules com- { mittee. In addition the officers ot | the union have inserted an article { entitled, "Intention and spirit of the | playing rules," which is deserving of | the widest Publicity. It is as fol- lows: While we believe that in general the sportsmanship shown by the play- ers of rugby football hag improved of recent years, it may not be amiss [0 say a few words for the benefit of | those who are either just learning [ the game or those who have over- | looked or neglected the preservation of the traditions of the game, In order to maintain a high stan- | dard of sportsmanship in the game of | rugby football, those actively inter- f ested in the management of the var- | lous clubs should seriously consider |.the | of to the credit or discredit of the club | which it represents, { In some sports it is possible to at- | tain reasonably high standards sim- | Ply by the adoption and enforcement of rules, but this is not true in foot- ball. There are so many men engag- | ed in action, the action is so rapid {and so constantly shifting, that it is { impossible for any official to discover every possible infraction of the rules. -- Good Sportsmanship, Probably no other game offers so | many opporturiities for a player or | coach to use unfair tactics in an at- | tempt "to win at any cost." Those guilty of using unfair tactics seem to fail to recognize that the first obli- gation of every football player should be to protect the game itself, its re- putation, and its good name. He owes this to the game, its friends, and its traditions, There can be little excuse for any player who allows the game to be smirched with unsports- manlike tactics; if the spirit ot the club management is sound. The rules committee has endeavor- ed to prohibit and suitably penalize all forms of unfair tactics and prac- tices. It has also, so far as possible, endeavored to remove special tempta- tion or opportunity for unsportsman- like play. So far as the rules themselves are concerned, the committee hag en- deavored to evolve a game that will prove attractive from a spectator's point of view and also give a light, skilful player an equal opportunity of successfully participating with a heavy player who may be less skilful, For the benefit of those who are just beginning to learn the game and those who may be ignorant of what the proper standards are, we desire to publish, along with the official rules, the following suggestions: es , Holding. Holding is prohibited by the rules because it does not belong to the game of football. It is unfair play. It eliminates skill. The slowest man in the world could make a long run at any time if the rest of his team- mates would hold their opponents long enough. The game of football is to advance the ball by strategy; skill and speed without holding your opponent. If your coach cannot show you how to gain distance without holding your opponents, dispense with his services. It is fair to assume that he does not understand the stra- tegy of the game, Side Line Coaching, Coaching from the side lines Is pro- hibited in the rules because it is con- sidered unfair practice. The game is SAN - CANT HEAR pou WHEN IT RINGS? THE BELL | CAN'T EAR ANY THING Ww ™ ASLEED EN ir responsibility, as the conduct | a team on the field reflects either | Sport !

If) for example, an onlooker, having! eeen al] the hands in a game of cards, | undertook to tell one of the players what card to play, the other players would have just causé to object, { | The sending in of substitutes for | | the purpose. of giving information as } | to the following play is an unfair evasion of the spirit of true sports- | manship, { ---- | Talking to Officlais. When an official imposes a penalty | or makes a decision, he is simply doing his duty as he sees it. He is | on the fleld representing the integrity | | of the game of football, and his deci- | | sion, even though he may have made | a mistake in judgment, is final and | conclusive, and should be so accept- | ed. Even if you think the decision | is a mistaken one, take your medicine | and do not whine about it. If there | iis anything to be sald, let your cap- | tain do the talking. He has that | privilege according to the rules, You ! | have not, therefore keep quiet and | play thre game, | S---- | | The Football Code, | | You may meet players and even | { coaches who will tel] you that it is | all right to hold or otherwise violate | | the rules it you do not get caught. | { This is the code of criminals and men | | whose sense of honor is sadly lack- | in | "The footbal] code is different. The football player who intentionally vio- | lates unsportsmanlike tactics, and | whether or not he escapes being pen- | alized, he brings discredit to the good name of the game, which it is his duty as a player to uphold." . ~---- Dempsey May Fight Brennan, Officials of the Queensbury Athle- tic Club, Buffalo, N.Y., said that the club is negotiating for a bout be- tween Jack Dempsey and Bill Bren- {nan to be staged in Buffalo in Novem- ber. An offer of $20,000 was made | to Brennan as his share of the purse, but it is not stated what Dempsey was to receive, In view of the state boxing board's rulink against large | purses for boxers, it was said by club { officials that the plans would be re- | vised, and the men would be asked | to fight on a percentage basis, | I ------ Announcement that Nationals will | have an intermediate rugby team | again this season gives assurance of | a four-club league in Montreal, St. Lambert has decided to play inter- mediate, which will give the four | clubs to draft a schedule for, St. | Lambers, Nationals, Westmount and | Montreal Amateur Athletic Associa- |" tion.
