It has long been said that if foot-ball were to be abolished there was ready at hand a sport to take its place almost its equal in beneficial effect and in the popularity which it enjoyed. The game of lacrosse has for some time occupied with us an intermediate place between foot-ball and base-ball. Now that foot-ball has been, at least for a time, laid by, lacrosse can well come to the front and take its place. Some interest has indeed been manifested in the sport, but the disappearance of the old familiar rush of foot-ball men across Jarvis seems to have paralyzed all other games. The lacrosse men have not given their attention to the necessary training to fit them for their work, and the effect is easily to be observed. The weather is perfectly adopted to the sport and men enough who are interested in the game could easily be found to lend their efforts to its success. The record made in this sport during last season should not be allowed to be counteracted by a series of defeats this year. The lacrosse management should exert their utmost endeavors to revive in the game an enthusiasm which shall equal that taken in foot-ball during the past year.
