MceConnel tried to leg it around the end of the Montreal line and was nailed for a fiveâ€"yard loss, On the next play, Waghorne tried a reverse around the short end, a play that worked with devastating effectiveness throughout all four What could have been another Alouette major fizzled out with but a few scant yards to go. After a_ sizzling fortyâ€"yard attack by Alouettes led by Waghorne and Ashton, that left the Montrealers gitting pretty on the threeâ€"yard line of Toronto, Argos rallied to push the Frenchmen back. "Waggy" tore through the centre of the Toronto line and ran down to the ten to put the team in position for the second time. Jack Ashton, who played a standout game every minute of the contest, ripped a hole in the Argo line and went through to the fiveâ€"yard line. ~~.On the next play, McConnell faded behind the line of scrimâ€" mage and fliiped a short pass to tiny Gunn who was sailing over the Argo line, and little Gunn made no mistake about it. The convert attempt failed. Again in the second quarter it was Waghorne who slipped the team into position for a score. Getting topâ€"notch blocking on the line by Dick and Don White and Pidgeon, Waghorne sifted through the Toronto team down to the Argo twentyâ€"five where he kicked the ball for. what looked like a sure point. Heady Bruce Moulton reâ€" turned the kick from behind the Argo goal line and pushed the Alouettes back to the centreâ€"field stripe. Waghorn promptly started Montreal rolling again. f The first touchdown was the reâ€" sult of a beautiful sprint by Wagâ€" horne who raced from‘ the Argoâ€" naut fifty down to the twentyâ€"three to put the team in position. Unable to eapitalize on their position with a major, Alouettes chose to kick, with Bobby Gunn hoofing the pigâ€" skin. The ball sailed over‘ the Argo line and Wilson was trapped for a single point. The shining star in the Alouette firmament was Waghorne all the way. Although he did not get in on any of the scoring plays, it was Waghorne who led Montreal on the gvund-utini attacks, and it was ‘aghorne who put his team into position for all of the points scored. Jf the contest had gone for ten mgutes more, the Argos would probably have been swept off theitr feet by a bigger wave, for Montreal was getting the kinks out of their legs by the last quarter. With only three minutes to go, and resting on the centre stripe, Alouettes rose upâ€" and smite the Argoe with yet another touchdown, climaxing a brilliant downâ€"field attack led by shifty Art Waghorne, The Montreal Atbuettes pinned an ignominious defeat on the Squllers and knocked them about almost at will in doing it. Argos wére fortunate to get away with a 13 to 0 licking against the flying ‘s Moffat Little Big Four y League game at Gibson saw two secondâ€"place teams in an effort to break their k in that position. Argos t into the fray on the rampage waiting for the kill, but they eame away wounded and weak. :Montreal Alouettes Gain 13â€"0 Victory And Second Place in League Standings With Comnvincing Win |Over Hapless Argos In Saturday Morning rExture "GIVE ROYALLY®" TOWNSHIP of ETOBICOKE "THE GREATER TORONTO WEDDING GIFT" BIGGER AND MORE EFFECTIVE FOR THE HUNGRY PEOPLE OF BRITAIN Contributions of money should be sent by cheque or money order payable to the Townshlg Treasurer and clearly marked "Princess Elizabeth Wedding Gift Fund."

There is also talk going around â€"Continued from page 1 deck, and provisions have been made for a canteen and petty officers‘ mess. Completion Of The pretty Argo cheerâ€"leaders were on hand. They are Bettyâ€"Dell Glassford, Marilyn Hart, Eleanor Robinson, Eileen Chapman. Marâ€" garet Jones, and Yvonne Atkinson. Alouettes divided their throwing chores between Gunn and Silver, alâ€" though Waghorn tried one, which, by the way, was good, Gunn tossâ€" ed two and both of them were into the ground. Silver was more inâ€" dustrious, trying six and completâ€" ing one. . â€" Redhead Wilson who tosses the pigskin for Argos had no luck. "Red" reluctantly got up from a late morning sleep to throw six passes, five of which were missed, and one of which was intercepted. Bruce Moulton played a fine game for Argos. Eruca used his head and was a real asset to the team. Argonauts‘ Jim Inglis was far off his usual game and did not play the game of which he is capâ€" able of. But Big Jim had a good excuse. His ankle was injured in the early moments of the game, and although he came back later, he favored the ankle to such an extent that his game was spoiled and his effectiveness was lost. With three minutes to go in the last quarter, Waghorne ran the ball from the centre stripe down to the Argo 15. Silver ran it to the 4â€"yard line and McConnell: tore around the end for a m&:r. Silver converted to top off the scoring and the game. Highlights uarters of the game, and he was &rown right back to the twont{- line a loss of twelve yards.
