It is largely due to tate' money
which Canadian clubs have used
to entice ,ridiron stars from
across the b.r`der.
We have had to relinquish some
of the pride we have always tak-

but in tile' long• run the process
Will allow more Canadian players
to learn the game and to event-
ually recover much of that lost
prestige.
They tell me that the brand of
game whicli,-thousands saw in Tor
onto in November was comparable
to anything which itzight be seen
in the United. States, with the ex-
ception of the fiio'tbali played by
the Detroit Lions.
Cup is allowed ten American play-
ers, of whole eight may be used in
any one game. (As the Americans
are very highly paid help, it is to
be expected that they are all us-
ed.) When an American plays in
Canada for four Years lie is con-
sidered '-a Canadian for football
purposes and is not counted among
the tfn; so in this respect it iS-
cortceivable that the players of
any one team might eventually all

to which our own boys are reach-
ing star rank, however, this is not
likely; although all the coaches are
American..
The vicissitudes of Canadian
football have been interesting.
When Earl Grey, who was govern-
or -general from 1904-1911,, donat-
ed the famous trophy, he intended
it to represent the Canadian am-
ateur championship. No one seems
to have minded very; much that
