F Kingston, Sept. 16.--Under 2 blazing sun that made more for baseball than football, Queen's gridiron squad got down for their first real work of the season at the Richardson Stadium yester- day afternoon, when a flock of players, most of them rookies and intermediates, went throngh an hour's drill under coach Harry Batstone. ' Of last® year's senior champ- fons, only McKelvey, Stuart. Gil- more, Jim Davis and Benny Mor- ris were on hand, but a string of hopeful candidates made up the quad for a real mid-season prac- tice. "Red" MecNicholl, sensa- tional running halfback of 'he Juniors last year, was out for the first time, while a ray of hope was seen in the appearance of Simmons, snapback of the in- termediates of last year, who may vet fill the hole caused by the graduation of Murray Hastings and the failure of Milt Buell to make the examination grade. Simmons went over hig last sea- son and may be counted on heav- ily this season. Morris, sub-mid- dle wing last year. reported some tnirty-five pounds overweight, but showed a willingness to work down to playing weight. Coach Batstone lost no time in working the forward pass, and throughout the entire practice, with Gib McKelvey on the throw- ing end, the Tricolor squad did practically nothing but work the new play. Coach Batstone revealed just what the task before him will be. While the Tricolor may he some- what top-heavy with good half. backs, including Howard Carter, "Red" Gilmore, Fred Warren, "Weenie" Day and probably "Red" McNicholl, the big job will he to re.construct the line. Eric Nicholl and Bob Basserman, reg- ur insides of last year, have graduated, while "Oot" Gourley and Art DeDiana, regular out- cides, have also finished their course. It was expected that De Diana would return, but the in- tications now are that he will not. Hastings and Buell, the two snaps, are out, as is also last year's smart quarterback, "Ga" Mungoven. Only Stuart und Hamlin remain on the line. George Caldwell, sub-quarter, and Bob Elliott, secondary defense star, are writing supplementary oxaminations, and their fate is as yet uncertain. If Caldwell and Elliott make the grade it would not he sur- prising if Gib McKelvey went to the pivot position, McKelvey is one of the smartest players in the college loop and would prob- ably go over big as a quarter. Coach Batstone, however, woud not go into details as to his plans until the majority of the players report for work. Expectations are that at least seventy-five rlayers will be in action before the start of next week. that's all | A Kriow boos eed 1omical Prices.' . Smartest Styling. ..Superb 'ST.

Having lost their game here with Barker's Bread the Falcon Ladies are faced with the task of taking the game in Toronto to-day or hanging It is altogether on the books that they will be equal to the task as they played a better offensive game than their opponents here, but threw the game away with costly errors in In the event of a win for Falcons a third game will be the same task as the Falcons hav- ing evened their series with Brantford in the game here last Saturday, To-day's game will be played in Brantford which will be a slight dis- advantage but as they will have their regular players all on deck, Orono ought to make the game close which ever way it goes. Maroons Beat Cornwall Team Montreal, Sept. 16.--Montreal Maroons, who last week captured second place in the International Professional Lacrosse League, last night further dug them- selves into that position by de- feating the last place Cornwall Colts 11 to 3 in a scheduled match at the local Forum, Maroons are four points ahead of Montreal Canadiens who have two games in hand.

Early in the third period Rube Whitford had possession of the ball and moved toward the Maroon defenceman, covered him and checked him hard, The ball was passed ahead and Whitford retaliated upon Coulter, The ref- eree stepped in and tagged Whit- ford with a penalty. Rube aimed a couple of blows at Secours' face and was chased with & match penalty. .

Dib Williams led the onslaught wjth five hits in five times at bat. A unique feature of the game was that every member of the champions' line-up hit safely and algo drove in a run. Pitcher Rom- mel was the only Mackman not to score a run. Earl Averill hit home-run of the second inning, The victory put Philadelphia 133; games ahead of Washing- ton, with only 12 games to play, thus clinching the Athletics' third straight pennant, Washing- ton still has 13 games remaining on their schedule, hut cannot fin- ish better than second if they win all of their remaining con- tests, and the Athletics lose all of theirs.

Guelph, this evening at 8 o'clock (Standard Time), when two pro- tests will be dealt with. The Falcon Athletic Club of Oshawa are protesting the game played against the Aluminum team of Toronto, recently, alleg- ing the use of inelligible players. They claim that Arthur Rogers, their pitcher, has played through- ont the season in Toronto with two teams, both the Aluminum team and the Old Mill, in the sen- jor series. Now that one of the teams has been put out of the running, he is carrying on with the champion Aluminum team. Norman Taylor of the same team is also said to have been a mem- ber of the Old Mill team during the season, and is now pitching for the Aluminum team. The First Hussars team of Lon- dun, protests the third game of their series with the Colley-Jones tcam of Windsor, which was play- ed in Chatham. They allege that the last half of the ninth innings was played under floodlights against their wishes, at the order of the umpire. They announced their protest before proceeding with the game, and claim tha fact they lost the game was due to the lights. Windsor scored three rung in the ninth to make the score 7-6.
