CLEAN SCRIMMAGING A NOTABLE FEATURE

(By "LEIGHTON")

London: October 17. The other day I was taken to see a game between two Rugby League teams. As a life-long^en- thusiast for the Rugby Union code I came prepared to curse, but I stayed to bless.

The play was so swift and-ex- citing, the running, passing, handling tackling and kicking were so superior to anything one sees at the Rectory Field or at Twickenham that I feel impelled to ask myself why this should be

so..

It cannot be solely due to superior physical fitness that I saw none of that "irritating slip- shod scrummaging where the ball is kicked but as soon as it is put in save when it Loes clean (through; or that I was spared those loose mauls which end in a perspiring heap of collapsed players and a prolonged blast on the overworked referee's whistle; or that I was treated to magni- ficently judged punts drop-kicks and place-kicks.

Six Forwards

It seems to me that sir "for- wards are a great improverment upon eight: the reduced number: ensures quick healing and break- ing up. Then the proviso that xi player when tackled gets up and plays the ball opposed only by his tacklers saves much unnecessary bullocking and manling. The line- out is responsible for much wast- ed time and rough play. But why not revert to six backs and thres three-quarter backs? How often do we see the ball travel straight across the field into touch?
