THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG LATEST LOCAL SCHEDULED 0-DAY Argonauts and Tigers to Fight It Out---Varsity and Mc@lil Final Tilt--Exhibition. Important games in the Canadian {football world are scheduled for this: week-end and on a few of them de- pend the reputations of some of the largest senior clubs. At Hamilton this afternoon tha vld, old battle between Hamilton igers and Toronto Argonauts will under way and from more than - tne standpoint it will be interesting It will settle the championship of the * Interprovincial and will decide what team is to represent that body in the _ Canadian finals. Argonauts and Tigers are old rivals. They know before th go on the field what plays will be u _ against them, what players must be watched who to kick to, where tho 'holes are and they will put into that game all the craftiness of two old «chess players who have been compet- ing for years. The Double Blue have ruled the Interprovincial roost for a long time and Tigers are as close to it as they have been in years. Added to that, the Bengals will be fighting . on their own grounds and will have everything to gain by a victory. Argonauts, on the other hand, pre- sent a formidable array on paper Though weakened by the loss of such stars as Conacher, Batstone and Cotton in the past two years, they gtill carry a squad of experienced men and they always set a high rato of speed. There should be some ex- eltement in the ambitious city this afternoon. ---- Battle for Second. At Varsity Stadium Shaughnessy's outfit and Warren Coryell's young team will fight it out for second place in the intercollegiate running. . A win for McGill will make them even and their is a fight to keep out of the cellar. McGill showed up as well or better than Varsity at the Richard- son Stadium but they have not the liking for the Varsity fleld that Queen's has. It will probably re- solve itself into a duel between Sny- der and Hughes and it is not by any means certain that Snyder will come out on top. Hughes has baeh kick- ing and running as well as the U. of TT. veteran, but he cannot take the bumps as well yet a hat may be tthewaeciding factor. stor." Queen's at Ca 's at Capital.

The Montreal teams more towards American ideas in style than any other teams in da. 1% is. probably because of fact that they both have Ameri- coaches.

H.R.C. and Parkdale, A prominent rugby critie told the writer the other day that he consid- cred the Parkdale half line the bast riaying the game in Canada to-day. On that basis, and with the drilling that their forward line has been get- ting lately, the O.R.F.U. titleholders should defeat Hamilton Rowing Club on-Meonday: = fetes Ross Craig, how ever, is conceding nothing to the Toronto outfit and his team will battle as hard for the honors as the Tigers will against Argonauts. There is another title at stake here and another Dominion aspirant to come from the contest and its result will be awaited anx- icusly. TRICOLOR TALES By ' Knocker The Queen's senior squad will shortly be called upon to prove the statement which has been made about it many times--that it is the best football outfit in Canada to- day. Last year it proved that it was and this year's work has shown im- provement all through. It is a great teant, whether or not it is the best and its future great- ness will depend upon those boys who are now coming in as recruits and learning the finer points as so lief men for the regulars. One of the most promising of these is Gilbert McKelvey. 'Cib' has been doing good work all year on the back division and has filled the places of Leadley, Batstone or Mundell as oc- casion demanded. He is only a youngster in years, with seventeen of them to his record, hut is already a man in size and at his present rate of development looks as if he will be even more imposing than his brother "Red." "Gib" has just come to Queen's from Kingston Collegiate Institute. Playing for that school he starred in hockey, rugby and basketball. Dur- ing last summer, as third baseman for the Circle-Six, he took part in the junior baseball semi-finals of On- tario, and played an important part in the victory for his tcam in the local junior league. This second McKelvey is well lik- ed by the "gang" and will coma along well in the football world. Firpo's Ambitious Plans. T.uis Angel Firpo, Argentine shock absorbér, is arranging a very definite line of campaign with the end in view of meeting Jack Dempsey again next summer. But the Firpo who will meet Dempsey, should the bout materialize, will be a very different boxer from the easy mark for the Dempsey wallops which kept him on the way to and from the resin during the greater part of their four-minute race for the "heavy' crown. Firpo will not be the greenhorn who took the advice of uninformed | fallow-countrymen, who .scarcely knew the difference bhetweea a box- ing glove and a baseball bat, and who buoyed him up with false 'ideas that he was unbeatable. William McCarney, veteran and astute man- ager of boxers, will have the "Wild Bull of the Pampas' ir charge, and will turn him over to James Deforest, who was Adscarded as instructor by Firpo when preparing for the Demp- sey bout. Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion, will be one ot Firpo's sparring partners. Sporting. South America. While Argentina, Bravil, Uruguay and Paraguay have formed a soccer league with one representative team from each country, the game ir South America is not confined to those countries Practically every coastal town of considerable size has its soccer team, which plays games with the crews of visiting ships. There is the instance cf a series: of four games between a South Ameri- can port team amd that of a British ship, the series extending over a period of upward of a year, owing to the infrequency with which Be ship makes its calls, Racing, too, .i¢ popular in South American countries.

The game. will start with Roy Crocker. Bert Gibb and Art Evans on the back division, with Walter Crocker r2ady to relieve his brother and Johnny laing ready to relieve Fivans. If Gibb needs relief, Evans will be moved to centre half. "Husky" Reid and Lorne Gatenby ;will be used at inside wing. 1t is figured that their long experience in the gama will be a big factor agains: the battle-scarred crew from Toronto znd both are in condition to go the route. McBride, an intermediate player of great promise, will be given his chance on the wing at some stage of the fray, He is the best of the second squad, and is looked upon : a youngster who is ready for senior company. The chap who prognosticates the weather promises a clear, cold day for the struggle on which hinges the Big Four title. This is encouraging, ond if the field is, not dried up by that time Tigers plan to pour gasn line on the turf to make the going fast.

This isn't fair to the Queen's squad which is really a better team than last year. That team was good enough to beat Argo- nauts, Conacher and all: in fact they made the mighty Connie look just ordinary. That sin won't be forgiven in Hogopolis for many a day.-~Otta- wa Citizen. A Hamilton fan thinks that a Leadley-Elford-Gibb backfield, each player from Hamiiton, would be the best any city could produce. Toron- to would be satisfied vith Harry Batstone, Warren Snyder, Lionel Conacher, "Dunc" Munro and Joe Breen; any three being superior to the Ambitious City entrants.--To- ronto Globe. -- If Argonauts are beaten at Hamil- ton on Saturday, Toronto fans may have the pleasure of seeing Lionel Conacher, Harold Cotton and the rest of the Bellefonte Academy play- ers in action here this season.
