Eddie Casey's Tufts Forward Pass. Eddie Casey, who starred at Har- "ward befofe coaching at Tufts, is a firm believer in the aerial attack.

Queen's have two chances tu win the intercollegiate honors again this year, one by defeating Varsity in the last game of the scheduled season, and should they lose that, by beat- ing the Toronto players in the play- off, which will be at the Percival Molson Memorial Stadium. Under the rules of the Intercol- legiate Union, should two teams he tied at the conclusion of the season for the championship, they may by mutual agreement of both teams in- volved play off on the home ground of either, but in case of a disagree- ment the game shall be played In the third intercollegiate city, which would bring the game to Montreal, as In 1922 when Queen's and Varsity played off here, Queen's winning their first championship in many seasons. p . .

If the pass is timed correctly only the defemsive right halfback should be mear the receiver and even he should be drawn away by the of- fensive short end who signals loud- ly. tor the ball. Right end, No. 6, goes down and signals for the ball, but this is only for the purpose of fooling the sec- ondary defense which has come over anyway to stop the fake end rum.

Hamilton starts the rugby players, Queen's puts on the finishing touches, and then they go back to Hamilton for post-graduate work be- fore retiring. would seem to apply to At least it does in one That coaches also. instance. A lot of people, with more or less knowledge of football, and mostly less, have been bothering us with complaints about the refereeing of Professor J. F. Macdonald in last Saturday's intermediate game here. Well, in the first place we were not there, and in the second place, if any person wants an argument, verbal or fistic, with "J. F." then he can try it himself, - We decline the doubtful honor of acting as substitute, Whatever the refereeing was like, we hear on good authority that one prominent citizen of Kingston almost had apoplexy over the game, "Why don't you quit saying nice things about us and bawl us out?" asked a Queen's player after the Mc- Gill game in Montreal. Sounds good, doesn't it? Well, we did and now our stock around the training quar- ters is about as high as North Pole refrigerators, Common. Behold the sad reward of virtue. And in spite of Omtario's gloomy verdict we refrained from partaking of the cheer of old Quebec. When we arrived home our best friend said: "Blanked fool." Another ac- quaintance did not refrain and the same friend said: "Blanked fool." It's a great life. te Ottawa surprised the University of Toronto team on Saturday. The col- leglans were inclined to believe that the Big Four teams are not as strong as usual, but discovered that this is not the case. All of which shows that Tigers' failure until Saturday to run up high scores was because their opponents have been, greatly under- rated.--Globe, . What Argos saw avin Hamilton did not 'frightén them a bit, but the Oarsmen know now that they are in for the battle of their lives when the Tigers p! here next Saturday. Tigers th they will go through the season without a defeat. Argos think they won't.--Globe, And to-day in Montreal a great coach will pit his knowledge of foot- ball against a great team led by a cheer leader. And, somehow, you don't care to wager much on the great coach's chances.--Telegram, Give Them Support combination. At times when points were necessary Batstone and Leadley used better judgment than their op- ponents, and by dropping twd™ fleld goals, Leadley placed his team In a position that made McGill's task the greater. Hughes had an opportunity to place McGill In the lead, early in the second quarter, had he decided to attempt a field goal, but tossed that opportunity away when he kick- ed for a single point, which only tied the score. On othér occasions McGill Jost endanger Queen's line by attempted drives through the centre, een's were the better, Time after Sims Ijadie aived bis Wines by on 1 ghar hand the local 1 bourg for the final game with Oak- ville in the championship inter- mediate O.B.A.A. playoffs.

Is there a penalty for such an offense? Often when a team is ahead and realizes there is only .a short time left to play, it frequently tries to retain its advantage by killing time. A common method used to delay the. game is by "calling the signals two or three times, making it appear as if there is a mixup. If the referee believes a team is so offending he can at his discretion inflict a ten-yard penalty, or loss of one down. What js meant 4 the expression piling on? It, after the bak declared dead, opponents throw themselves on the ball carrier who has been downed it is considered unnecessary roughness and a penalty for piling is inflicted. Four Playing Managers, The American League is evenly af- vided in playing and bench manag- ers, there being four of each. It is rather unusual that four star play- ers like Cobb, Harris, Speaker and Sisler should have such signal suc- cess in the managerial role, New Leader for Chicago. } The failure of Johnny Evers in di- recting the Chicago White Sox makes it seem certain that club will have a new manager next year. Eddie Col ling is the logical choice but it is said he is not in good favor with Comiskey. Collins has annually make Comiskey come across with a fat contract.
