the following to say to-day:
Although the development of the team is not as
far advanced at the same time last year YET 1t

the game Owing to the difficulty of selecting a
team from many candidates and rounding II
into shape by this time. the real strength of the
eleven has been shown in any of the games
which 1t has played this year. nor is the team as
well developed as expected il to be fourteen
days ago The development of tine team has been
rapid within the last week, both in the quick
ness and energy with which the men form for
offence and defence, and In the manner in which
their plays are executed. The main fault and one
which the coaches have been unable to eradicate
entirely, $ the fumbiing which has been
spicuous in all the games played this season.
