Between the period of Stokes and Maclagan Rugby football had made an advance in scienco, an advance which has continued and must con- tinne. Maclagan I regard as having reached the highest standard of sceatific play known till his day. In height, weight, and strong he had an advantage over most of his centom. peraries, He was a great kick, and, when he rau, his weight and strength made him most dangerous. As for his tackling, it was of back-breaking order, and the man who fell into his hands was smothered. But it was as a general on the field that he particularly shone. He often did what few captains have the courage or foresight to do---he shifted his man is order to search out the weak spots in the opposing team or to strengthen his side against the at- tarks of his opponents. Muchagan was an ideal captain, and a great exponent of centro play under the three three-quarter game. In F. E.

Another brilliant pair were H. Percy Phillips and F. C. Paritt, the Newport and Welsh halves. In this partnership the under standing vas as perfect as that between the brothers James, but it was Phillips who got the chief share of the glory, sincs Parätt almost invariably worked the scrimmage, while Phillips did the work in the open. They were men of different types, and one was the complement of the other. No man had a quicker, eye for an opening or was quicker to seize it than Phillips, no man ever made better openings for his three. quarters, while Parfitt get the ball away with the greatest cleanness and judgment, tackled and stopped rushes most fearlessly and success- fully, and kicked with great judgment. Many other half backs could be named, but I have dealt with men who wore great in the old style and the new, and others must be ignored.
