291 OURK AL ft College i Defeats Hamilton Ottawa College Football Club, champions of the Quebec Rugby Union 14 points; Hamilton Football Club, otherwise known as the Tigers, champions of the Ontario Union, 10 points. A slippery ground, hard under half an inch of. softish, greasy snow. A wet, slippery balL Nevertheless a wonderfully accurate game, very little; fumbling on either side, parti cularly little by College men; plenty of open long kicking and pretty running, little rough work, in short as fine a match as one could see on a damp November day, Three thou. sand people or more were there to see Promptly at 3 o'clock the fifteens of the two clubs trotted out on the whitish 'field.

The long, level oval had enough snow on It to conceal the sod In most places, and there were considerable masses of snow or Ice at the sides. Both teams wore dirty canvas jackets, through which stuck the garnet sleeves of Ottawa College, and the yellow-and-black of Hamilton. Hamilton were the bigger men, that was sure, everywhere sawas to the scrim-mage trio. But that is where weight tells most. The College men In the little preliminary canters looked lighter on their feet, and they had reason to be, for they were all out" In canvas shces, whereas most of the Tigers wore boots, and they nsver made' a worse mistake.

The splendid M.A.A.A. gTastt stand was nearly filled with spectators, mostly a vast range of black. Still three or four hundred ladles braved the weather. A light fine siTow, sometimes almost rain, drifted down before a moderate wind from the south-west. The atmosphere was decidedly raw.

A splendid game was to follow In which the skill, speed and combination of the garnet and grey was to over come the individual strength, dm and perUnacy of the yellow and black. College won the toss and of course elected to play with the wind. Shirley Davidson of the McGllI team was referee. Hartland McDougall of the Montreal team, umpire. The teams and weights were College.

College 168. Hamilton 172. FIRST HALF. Collere havin the wind, the Hamil ton captain kicked off, a fine long drive. but equally well returned by Gleeson, and the teams settled down to business in mid-field.

Several sharp scrimmages were the opening feature. College did not seem to have the better of these. But you never can tell about the College scrim until a pinch comes. They usually keep some- thing up their sleeve. Hamiron played a brisk game, and their wings brce through the College line well-too well, for several free kicks were given to the College by the umpire In into Hamilton territory.

The western men put up a fine defence, and at this stage showed two or three samples cf neat passing and running by the halfbacks. For ten minutes the game vacillated In Hamilton's ground, still not near their line, and as College despite the advantage of the wind did not seem atle to gain much Hamilton stock went up. Bomhshell For Hamilton. Suddenly very suddenly something occurred. Smith was the first part of It Taking the ball as it came back from the College scrim, he sprinted along behind the wings until he an opening in the Hamilton line, and went through like a bullet.

He was tackled in a moment by one of the Hamilton halves, but made a neat pass over bis shoulder to Lafleur, and the latter galloped on. Two of the Hamilton rear division made for Le-flcur from opposite sides, but in some queer way he plunged 'through and with a clear field ran 20 yards on utralrht Into the Hamilton goal, the Hamilton men In their heavy boots lumbering after him like drag horwi Touch-down. 4 points. He kicked the goal, easily 2 points more. Colleue 6, Hamilton 0.

After the kick-off, the play soon returned to Hamilton territory owing chiefly to Gleeson's fine punting. The Hamilton men seemed to have a little the better of the close play. Their forwards occasionally carried the ball on by rushes in something of the style 4 the Ottawa city team were so effec tive st. the leather going from hand to hand with a continuous plunge. But whenever the ball got loowe on the College side.

Gleeaon's kicks returned it far into Hamilton ground. Smith making a Jump into Wylle after the Hamilton half-back had marked a catch, the referee ruled the OollApt quarter off for Ave rlnutes. Lfveque took Smith's position, but was slow at it, and Hamilton brought him down every time snd gained ground till Sml'h returned. Crack No. 2 For Tigers.

Then came hard luck for Hamilton. A long punt by Gleeson fell a couple of yards In front of the Hamilton line. SKILL AND SPEED BALK THE SPRING OF THE TIGERS A Close, Clean, Pretty and Splendidly ONTARIO CRACKS BEATEN BY li POINTS TO 10 in It was caught and marked by DuMouIln. But when the College had been following the punt, some Hamilton man had tried an offside body-check which the referee spotted, and ne gave college a penalty kick right under the Hamilton goal. It was a severe ruling.

There had been lots of offside Interference going on before, but it was not yenslized until this juncture, fatal to Hamilton. Gleeson could have placed' a goal from the penalty kick, but that would have counted but 2 points. He made a feint at a kick, but suddenly turning tipped the ball to the rush line behind him. and they made a dive tor a I loucn-oown. Hamilton stopped the rush Just cutsrtde the Mne, but the next time the College scrim carried Smith over for the touch-down, 4 points.

College 10, Hamilton 0. The kick at goal looked an easy ope, but Leveque missed. Then Hamilton went In to know the reason why, and for a time tore up the College line, crowding the play up the field until they were within a few yards of the Ottawa men's goal. College braced there. 1 The garnet and grey scrim, let out a link, and the wings tackled like tigers.

Two or three times the ball sailed over, but the rear division played without a flaw, and got it out again. College Gets Crowded. At length a penalty kick by Counsel! landed the ball far In touch-ln-goal, giving Hamilton one point. College 10. Hamilton The generalship credited In the west to Counsell did not materialize here.

His rush line was doing splendidly, and when so rear the College line, it looked as though he should have kicked short and given them a chance to get under the ball. But though be got two or three free kicks at this time, he tried only long punts, and In every case the College hacks returned them before his forwards could get that far. Hamilton kept pressing College. Good passes by the Hamilton quarter, Fox, to Counsell. or short, sharp dashes by Fox himself, who played a thoroughly plucky and clever game, kept College busy.

Finally McGuckln's tumble of a catch and lightning following-up by Ripley took the 2all across the College line, where Rlpy was tackled before he got the leather down and the referee awarded Hamilton a touch without a try, 4 polnta College 10, Hamilton All this time Hamilton had been improving in play, and when they began to score like this, the cry along the (Continued on page 6.)
