North Staffords i Hockey Club North Statlord Hockey TClub’s first team gained a 'very creditable 2—1 home victory over Cannock last Saturday. Ior they were without the services of three of their regular forwards and their visitors had not been defeated for over two years.

This is a suggestion ’that a short game might precede the Rugby match on some of the big occasions at ,Twickenham. The idea has much to commend it. Not only would it help lacrosse, but it would also assist the Rugby Uhion by providing an attrac- tion for spectators who spend anything up to an hour awaiting the kick-OR. The rubber shoes worn by the players would not damage the turf: no special lines being required, the fact that the pitch was marked out for Rugby would inconvenience no one: and lacrosse goals can be erected and dismantled in a few lseconds. A leaflet inserted in the programme could explain the main points of what is basically a simple game, easy to follow. Colonel F. D. Prentice, secretary of the Rugby Union, must await the decision of his committee before replying; but there is reason lto think that the plan will receive sympathetic consideration The Union may suggest a trial at another Rugby centre—possibly the Rich- mond Athletic ground. \VOMEN'S TEAM FOR [7.8.
