An Import From Canada - Lacrosse (1922)

Shots of men playing lacrosse. Slow motion footage of some of the action. Intertitle reads: “(Incidentally lacrosse would never suit McCracken - “offsides“ aren’t recognised -). Some players come quite close to the camera. The teams are from Hampstead and Oxford. A goal is scored. Title presumably means that Lacrosse is a Canadian game? Not Eve’s Film Review - probably Pathe Pictorial. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
