The inter-city lacrosse league play is restricted to box lacrosse. John Cavallin, promotion com- mittee member, said Thursday he has been working=on the revival of field lacrosse--dormant in Can ada for about 25 years--for more than a year now. He said it is enjoying unprecedented popularity in eastern United States high schools and colleges. "The old field game died because it was so brutal," he said. "The game as played under rules of the U.S. National Collegiate Athletic Association is entirely different Slashing and cross-checking are not permitted. Bodily contact there is, but the legal bodycheck is ex- actly the same as in soccer This is a game of skill--passing and stickhandling."
