U. dn 1882, and the inter- [coliegiate in 1898 has thers been lsuch. wide-spread émterest in tho popular fol game as was evidenced i this season, with the result that at- {tendance records have been consis:- ently broken, gate receipts havebeen far above those of former years, and the revised rules have opened up the play and rendered Rugby more spec- tacular than én any previous seasons, says the Montreal Gazetta, which pro-/ jceeds: Above all this has been the increased enthusiasm shown in foot- [bs] both in the larger centres and throughout the country where the Canadian code is in vogue and in the smaller ones where the advent of junior and intermediate teams has greatly raised the standard of the Play in those sections, with the con- sequent development of much prom- nent material. The record atlend- ances in various ceftres are ample proof that the waning season stands out above any previous one. From the standpoint of high class competitions the proof of a great season is almost as conclusive, Close and exciting struggles have been the order from the start and for the first time in several years championship honors have been taken away from Toronto, the acknowledged hub in the Rugby wheel of Canada. The champion Argonauts of Toronto, who have held undisputed sway during 'he past two seasons found stiff op- Position dn the Interprovincial eeries this year and in the Hamflton Tigers and the Montreal squads met teams that extended them to the limit to win and at times to earn a draw, But, apart from the closeness of the battles, the brilliant open field play that lias featured this season's games bas added a flip to the enthushasm shown by spectators who have been enabled . to witness dashing move- ments through broken fields, 'stellar kicking duels and beautifully drop- ped fleld goals and placement kicks that have long been a more or less minus quantity, J -- Outstanding Players.

Frank Shaughnessy, coach of the MeGill in- tercollegiate squads, has several sug- gestions which will be offered as suit- able revisions to better Rugby. These will dnclude questions of interference on the line hurdling, piling on after a man Is held, one-man bucks oaly, and a reduciion of the penaltysfor off- side, but not for holding. While the mattsr of the forward pass will also likely get consideration. The majority of these have been suggested by the McGill coach with a view to eliminating serious acci- dents in games, The one-man buck, with no player either pushing or puli- ing the man carrying the ball, is ad- vocated for next season. Also the dangerous practice of hurdling by players, that is, going over oppos|- tion players with both feet off the ground and in front or with knees up; and finally, a striet enforcement of a rule regarding players who pile up after a man is held on the ground, which frequently results in the man with the ball being severely hurt. The McGill coach advocates three- yard interference on the Hoe of scrimmage, to apply from one side of the fleld to the other, but only for those actually on the front line, and not for the backs who might move up into the front rank. The question of the reduction of the 15-yard penalty rule to one of five yards for offsides has been gen- erally accepted this season as a fair proposal, it being agreed that the present imposition is too big a handi- cap to a team for a minor offense, which is more frequently than not committed not intentionally, but by an over-anxious player) ing 1st December, 1922.

Inclusion of the forward pass, as played in the American game, wi cause considerable debate, as there are many just ag enthusiastically op- posed to the adoption of the play under the Canadian game as there are in favor of it. Shaughnessy fav- ors the play, as does Pete Campbell, former University of Toronto quar- terback, who with Coach Dr, Jack Maynard formed that famous pair of blue and white backs in the tnter- collegiate in the few seasons immedi- Glely preceding the war, Campbell witnessed the Harvard-Yale game last week and returned to this aide a supporter of the movement to in- troduce the play in the Canadian game, No doubt eome of these sugges- tions will be carried, while others will have a rough road to get through and be incorporated in the 1923 re- gulations, but whatever chinges are made it is fairly evident that general satisfaction exists with the main prindiples of the Present; code and that the brilliant game seen this sea- son will not be aliered much next year.
