The kickoff went to Batstons and he advanced a short distance, Both teams wero playing like demons and the erowd was crazed with excite- ment. Queen's made yards. Lead- ley kicked short and Conacher 'ook i and was downed on his 40-yard line. "Three attempts fatled to bat- ter the Queen's defense and the Tri- calor were given the ball. With three minutes to go Queen's foozled an end ran and Argos redovered the bali.

Hugh Free of -the Doat office staff guessed the right score of the Queen-Varsity Bameé in Torento, Hz. 15-13. Queen's lucky figure this eeason is twelve. They won their first game against McGill in Montreal by 12 to 1; defeated Varsity in Montreal by 12 to 6, and won from Argonauts by 13 to 11. : Another close game Queen's play- ed 'for the Dominion championship was in November 1894 when they lost to Ottawa College in Toronto | by 8 to 7. ~ American Consul Johnson made Apother close guess ag to Saturday's score.

I could just kiss hin. Note: --She's pgetty fair, too, "Pep." Better get her phone pumber, "Dave" Harding's parents were in Toronto for the game and the fathers of Ba'stone and Thomas took turns congratulating each other.

Boohoo very much dislikes familiari- ties from- absolute strangers, A young lady, an Argo supporter, thus expressed her fears when Argos were still in the lead; "I'm go afraid. Those Queen's boys seem SO--s0-- well, relentless." Yes, a desperace bunch, you bet. ---------- QUEEN'S BUNCH ARE ALL STARS To give credit to any certain men on the Queen's team for their victory would be foolish as those who saw the game could testify, That line did uot get through for yards, did not Lold up the Argos on their attack, did mot stop Conacher, without twelve men playing in perfect fash- fon, and that all through the game. The victory can be attributed to speedy, direct and faultless football, and as last Saturday, this same thing 4s put into effect by a team of well- trained, well-coached, fighting play- €rs, each one of them out to do a little more than is expected of him, and each one accomplishing what he started out to do. Without douht "Pep" stood ont more brilliantly than eve, when the character of his opposition is considered. Hig two fleld goals, and good kicking and catohing, place bim in the front rank. Batstone would divide honors wita Leadley but for the latter's long gains by twisting runs, but "Harry" turned in the best game he has put up for 'Queen's this year and was there in every pinch to steady things and make sure of no tadetakes on dangerous punts. When caiches were dangerously near the Queen's line or behind it the work Was entrusted to him and not once did he falter, In the second half he lengthened out his stride and mada long gains for Queen's on planges and Gwick dodging runs. Evans directed the players as the crowd expected, perfectly, and was no mean ground getter himself, McKalvey proved to be the Conacher of the line, He and the Argos captain made & beautiful pair, standing together and mewe than once the two big fellows met in the play. to go down grinning each at the might of the other.

After the Queen's-Argos game on Saturday the Queen's players and of- ficlals were tendered a banquet at the club house of the Argonaut Rowing Club at the foot of DowMng Avenue The players of both eides had a chance to get acquainted and the op- portunity was especially enjoyed by "Red" Wilson, substitute flying wing {of the Argos, and his old team mates {on the Queen's team. "Red" played his best against his old squad in the last half of the game but he was ore of the lucky ones who could rejoice Bo matter which team won out. The Queen's outfit was all tickled to death with the treatment accorded 'hem at the Argo Club and this was further inhanced by the fact that neither side had any casualties of a serious nature to report. The Queen's players are all in the pink and ready to go once more. From our own humble selves comes a little thanks to the Argonaut Row- ing Club for an invitation to this tanquet received. on Friday, ' The press boys are so used to getting "more kicks than half-pence" that the cordial letter from Argos was Mke & neaw lease on life. To give the Ar- go Club its full due, it might also be said that Queen's University has never favored us withja similar letter In connection with'banquets after games, nor have the other intercoi- legiate organizations. The Queen's supporters amuse] themselves and colebrated as bes: they could in a town full of churches, schools and b ks on Saturday night.

EE ---------------- ' tntng L JUST SERVICE. i On Saturday the Whig was the first place in Kingston where the final score of the Queen's-Argos game Was announced and the throngs in front of the Whig office were away up Princess street in a victorious march. No other places had receiv- fed it, bat the crowds from the Whig bulletins quiekly spread the news be- fore other bulletins received it ana it was soon all over the anxiously waiting crowds, A A telephone service was kept up all over the main sections of the city, Informing various branch bulletins of the Whig of the progress of the game Two of thewe branches were Syden- ham and Mowat Hospitals and the boys appreciated the @ervice very much. It kept a large staff on the Jump all the time to answer phone calls and phone the scores out to branches but it certainly was worth it and the whole crowd in this office executed a little war dance when the news arrived that the ---------- : Just Before the Battle, The Toronto Star, through its writer, Lou Marsh, published this on F 3 The "Just before the battle, mother" statements from the rival camps---Queen's and Argonauts--are decidedly interesting, John Goofus, who launders the Argo undershirig-- when they get laundered--and there- fore is in a 800d position to inhale inside information, says: "The Argos are the strongest team I ever mani cured for.

He Played a Wondrous Game rhose Kingston fans who were at the Queen's-Argos game on Saturday have returned to Kingston full of the triumph of the Queen's team and Just bubbling over with enthusiasm over all the boys who figured in the win. But with the majority of them, and especially that great number who saw Lionel Conacher in action for the first time, the topic that is ever Te- turned to discuselon of the fine points of the marvellous oaptain of the Argonauts. . To the men folks Conacher stands out as a great specimen of manhood, a wondrous athlete and a sportsman to the last ditch. With the ladies, in addition to these, a romantic touch or two have been added. Ome of them proposes to knock the last 'wo let- ters off his first name and call him "Lion," a fitting "title. Another Hk- ens him to Jason, the famous leader of the original Argonauts. All ad- mire him and adm: that his reputa- tion is no more than his due. . Argos' Mainstay, Then general opinion of the King- ston fans is that Argos would have indeed looked poor against Queen's had they not had Conacher, He was in almost every play while his team was on the offensive and bore the brunt of the work at all times, The earned points of the game were the results of his work and he was the stumbling block over which Leadley fell when on his way to a touch after a brildant run in the last Quarter, When ground is to be gained, when kicks are the order, when hard catches come over, it is up to Con- acher, and he fills the bill. Naturally, bging such a hard man of asphyxiation before the first quar- ter." Alfie Pearce, coach of Queen's thirty years ago, who hasn't been al- lowed inside the Presbyterian "dress- ing room since Guy 'Curtis' favorite linament was paregoric, says in @& signed statement for the Kingston Swig: "If Queen's do not win every chukkar, it will' be because Argos Lave run in Jesse James for referee, with Bill Younger or one of the Cole brothers for his umpire, and have Ben Turpin on the yard sticks, I look for a handsome victory for the undergraduates of my alma mater if the team does not run out of sub- stitutes for the coaching position, or the O.T.A. interfere with their spirits of victory." -- Some Freak Bits.

However, the Johnny Barnes Barnes-Roth Eaton feud is st#ll on. Barnes had to shine Faton's shoes In the Arcade at noon Monday and wear a red tie all week, because he Wagered on Parkdale.
