Elgin has demonstrated t ut t 5 rspuc

point.
The team is handicapped by the fact
that there are so few candidates and
scr mmage work is scarcely ever
indulged in. In the back fields the locals
easily have the best of the two teams.
A'stott, who playsat i:ght half is a vet

controls his brain. While Childers, his
team mate, has n-A the we'ght or expur
