Gaelic Football.
The Gaelic A. A. will inaugurate the
championship season of 1894 at Ridge
wood next Sunday with a double pro
gramme, a football game between the
O'Connells and the Garryowens and a
hurting match between the Mitchells and
the Wolfe Tones being the features.
The severe punishment recently dealt
to a number of unruly players by the
Central Council of the G.. A. A. had its
effect on the Labor Day games at Ridge
wood. and a better behaved lot of ath-
letes than took part in the same were
never seen. 1t is the Councils intention
to enforce good order at its games, and
it will not hesitate to punish every player
who creates a disturbance on the field or
breaks its rules in any way.
The patrons of Gaelic sports can in
the future rely on witnessing their favor
lite games played under proper rules and
regulations, and without the disgraceful
scenes which nave been all too frequent
in the past, is the guarantee of the COM
mittee.
