THE HOCKEY CARNIVAL.

CONCLUDED ON SATURDAY.

The inter-State hockey carnival was
»ncluded on Satuiday at the Jubilee*
Oval with two interesting matches. The
fii-ot was an encounter between Victoria
and the South Australian second team,
which ended in a win for toe visitors by
one goal to ml. The game was fairly
.evenly contested, but tne work of the for-
wards on both sides was not particularly
good. The Victorians had somewhat the
'better of the aigument in the first -nair",
und about five minutes before half-time
?was called Wheailand «scored a goal ior(
the visitors. In the second half the game'
(became faster, and there wa« not much
to choose between the teams. Souch
Australia found the Victorian defence im-
pregnable until the end, and the visi-
tors ron out winners by one goal to nil.
For the home team Knight at full-back,
Gryst and McLauguton in the half-bask
line, and Cooke in a forward position,
played Well: whilst the Vittoriart'd best
men were Forster (centre forward) and
the backs, Bealey and Reddin.

The second game of the afternoon was
the more«- important. It was an encoun-
ter between New South Wales and South
Australia, and afforded the spectators
some interesting and fast hockey. Al-
though the visitons met the South Aus-
traliana m Melbourne two years ago, and
formed a very poor opinion of their
hockey, they had reason to revise their
estimate in the following year, and they
come to Adelaide hardly knowing what
sort of game übey m'ght get. They were
surprised by the South Australians' ex-
cellent 'Play, and their manager con-
fessed that the home team had improved
.wonderfully since last the teamfl met.
The referees were Messrs. E. G. Foskett
end 9. D. Perriam; and Messrs. R. it.
Patrick and L. Simmonds were on the

line.

Tha teams were:-South Australia
Monks (goal), J. R. Siebert and Hogben
(backs), C McLcllan, W. F. Green-uam,
and G. Siebert (halves), Clarke, Robert-
son, Wilson, Adams, and Milne (for-
wards). New South Wales-Woolley
(goal), Molloy and Cocke (backs), Pigg,
Shelley, and Deffel (halves), Redgrave,
Hinton, Hall, Buskin, and McKenzie (for-
wards).

' The game started . at a good pace, and

?np and down play showed good work on
the »part of the .backs, particularly the
South. Australians. After five minutes'

play the home defence was rapidly bro-

ken down, and Buskin scored the first
goal for the Welshmen. The visitor«
continued to attack, and three minutes
later a hot shot fn. m Hinton narrowly
missed the goal. When the attack was
resumed. Monks 6aved his charge bril-
liantly, but for some minutes the visiting
defence had a restful time. The visitors
forced a corner, and the South Austra-
lians, getting the ball quickly away from
the corner hit. retaliated. A corner at
the Welshmen s end. proved fruitless, and
the game was of a give-and-take character
for some minutes. Monks was again
in evidence when the visitors renewed
the ' attack, and although Redgrave got
a shot past him he drove in from out-
side the circle. Siebert ran down on the
left wing and centred smartly. The clear-
ance waa only temporary, for Hogben re-
turned the ball and Wilson netted it,
only to have the goal disallowed for

- Robertson's off-side. The South Aus-¡

tralian goal "waa soon in. danger again, |
but the defence was equal to the occa->
sion, and midfield play -followed; Tuen'
New South Waka returned in à hurry,!
and clever combination on the part of

the forward Une -put Buskin in a position j
of advantage. The ball found the net,

-and the visitors added another goal to,
, tiieir tally. They sought to increase the
< advantage by a fierce attack, but Monks

saved well, and half-time found the score

.still. 2-0.

From the bully-off,'New Boutb , Wales ¡
Attacked strongly, and i by good combina-1
lion forced the ball into the circle. They
obtained a corner, and in the subse-j
quent scramble round the goal Defiel
collided with one of the home side, and
was temporarily put out of action. From
-the placed bully the visitors resumed
their aggressive tactics, and for some time
the South Australian defence waa hard
pressed. Monks and his backs were again
conspicuous. From a 25 Wilson passed
cleverly to Milne on the left wing, and
some better combination on the part of
the home forward line forced the ball
into ?» the enemy's territory. Wilson,

however, failed to convert,' and ühe advan-¡
tage was lost. The game returned to
the other end of the field, and here
an unfortunate accident stopped play for.
-some minutes. -.Adams received a swing-1
ing volley from Cocks right on the knee-
cap. It was a painful injury, and he
.had to 'be earned off. A Victorian

y player with some surgical knowledge ex-

amined the knee, and waa able to an-j
mounce trhat no permanent injury would
result. On the resumption of play New
South Wales continued to press, and the
home men broke away, only to be re-
pulsed by the visiting backs. Molloy
-was' playing an exceptional game, and
Cocks supported him very ably. South'
Australia rallied, and there was a quick
attack on the visitors' citadel, eo that
Woolley had difficulty in clearing. At

the omer end the South Australian goal "
¡had a narrow escape. Hall shot from
a distance of not more than three yards,
directly in front of the goal, but the
home custodian was not to be beaten
again. In the last étages of the game
the play was wfld and fast, and both
ends were frequently visited. South
Australia attacked strongly, and Robert
eon beat Molloy for the-first time, but
the score remained unaltered when the
final whistle blew. New South Wales,
2j South Australia, 0.

A COMPLTMENTARY DINNER.

On Saturday evening a dinner was ten-
dered the visitors at the Aurora Hotel.
Mr- H. J. Bailey presided over a good
gathering, and a most enjoyable evening
wasvGpent. The toast list comprised:
"The King," by Mr. H. J. Bailey;
«Hockey," by Mr. T. A. T. Heward, and
responded to by Mr. H. Wilson: "The
?risitors," by Mr. A. F. Siebert (captain
of SA. team), to which the visiting cap-
tains (Mr. D. Shelley, for N&W., and
Mr. L. W. Forster) responded; "The S.A. I
Hockey Association," though not on the!
official toaBt list, was proposed ov Mr. E. 1
G. Foskett (manager for N.S.W.), and
.supported by the Victorian manager, Mr.
F. R. 'Major. Mr. C. W. Milne, the hon.
secretary, responded on behalf of the
local association; "The chairman*' waa
given by Mr. J. W. McDonald, and Mr.
Bailey responded. In the speeches re-
ference was made to the great improve-
ment shown in the game by South Aus-
tralia, Mr. Foskett especially mentioned
that the individual play was fine, but
SA. waa greatly lacking in system.'

AN EXCITING GAME.

The result of the match between Nor-
wood and North Adelaide on the Norwood
Oval on Saturday could not have altered
the position of either team in any way, and
because so little depended upon it only a
small crowd attended. Those who did put
in an appearance, however, either in loyalty
to their clubs or in the keenness of their
admiration for the game, were treated to
one of the most interesting matches of
the season. Almost from the start the
scores were close. Seldom waa there a
margin of more than two or three points
either way, and the lead was as often held
by one club -as the other. With three
minutes to go Norwood led by two points
and the excitement waa intense. Then
forwood kicked a goal, and although North
Adelaide fought out a splendid finish they
could not get the required two goals, and
finished seven peints to the bad. It was
the second win Norwood had ecored this

season, and they thoroughly deserved it,
for¿ they were distinctly the better team.
Wfth the exception of Leahy, who brought

off some of his most spectacular marks}
they were consistently Setter in the air
than North Adelaide, and individually they
were the stronger side, but several of their
men showed a tendency to hang on to the
ball too long, and in passing they were not
the equals of the red-and whites. They
had three juniors-Nash, James, and Ë,
Beames-playing, and the fact that, they
could beat one of the first four teams under
tho«e circumstances indicated fairly clearly
that they were entitled to a far better

position Utan that at the bottom of the
list. The game was fast and willing from
the outset, and the men played as though
the premiership depended on it. Umpire
Carter, let the play go to a surprising ex-
tent, and there were many hard falls and

hard bumps given and taken during the

afternoon. Neither team could be accused

of saving themselves. Leahy workedi as
hard as, or harder, than at any other time
this Reason, hut he could not play a side
singlehanded. Klose, R. LeMessurier, and
Thomas were fine across the centre, and
O'Brien's defence in the h~t quarter was
very sound, but, save in the first few
minutes, Norwood controlled the situation
elsewhere. With the wind to help them
North Adelaide made an early start on the
scoring, and LeMessurier's accurate pass-
ing, which was a noticeable feature of
-.orth Adelaides' attacks all through the
match, gave Johns. a chance, and that
player made*no mistake. " Again LeMessu-
rier forwarded and Johns scored a behind

from an angle, but receiving from LeMessu- j

rier yet a third time he was more accu
; rate and scored his second goal. A little
¡ later he hit the post from an angle shot,
' while Secombe accounted for a fourth be

l hind. Norwood had not scored, and did '

not look like scoring, until V. Stephens'

| marked from Packham and kicked a be-1

hind. Up till then it had seemed likely i
that North Adelaide would score a run

away victory, but Norwood fed into their
1 stride, and, with Packham ' playing fine

football, kept the North backs very busy.
j Their own back men, however, failed to

j watch their .immediate opponents» and j
I Johns and Leahy each kicked a goal before

the bell went, while all Norwood could
J manage was 1 goal 3 behinds. At the first

change of ends Norwood were thus l8
points in arrears, but they had the wind
to help them, and inside a minute Steele
had marked nicely from V. Stephens and
kicked a goal. G. Stephens followed with
a behind, and Packham, who was the best
man on the ground, Ecored another point
from an easy shot.- Trescowthick, who
was keeping goal for' North Adelaide,
thought Packham had scored the maxi-
mum, and without waiting to see what the
goal umpire signalled he passed the ball
i out to Steele to be taken down to the
1 centre. Steele quietly marked it and
kicked & goal. North Adelaide rallied and
Sandery scored'a goal from a free, but
I Norwood > were the better team. They
were playing with greater dash, and al
I though both sides fumbled rather badly at
. times the Norwood men nearly always
, seemed to be in front of their opponents.
! and before the long interval they baa
' passed North Adelaides' scoie and were

three points to the good. For the rest
of the game the struggle was exceedingly
keen. ? Each side was fully extended,
fighting hard-for a lead, but there was
nothing much between them. Packham
! and Leahy stood out as the most con
gncuous figures on the field. Klose and

eMessurier were big stumbling-blocks for
Norwood, while Manning, Johns, G.
. Beames, and Grantley defended well

against the North Adelaide attacks. When
the last quarter started North Adelaide
led by two points. E. Beames reduced it
to one. and then Manning gave Norwood a
five-point advantage with a fine goal. But
the lead was not held long, for Secombe
turned the tables with a cleverly-obtained
goal at the other end. Then Steele kicked
a behind and the scores were level. There
were still about 10 minutes to go, and the
excitement was intense. Manning kicked

a behind, but, try as they would, Norwood ,
could not increase that lead. O'Brien,

who was playing for the first time since |
he came out of the hospital, turned'them
to the rightabout time after time, and Cook
and Wallia backed him up well. Norwood
did nearly all the attacking, however, and
with; about three minutes to go White
kicked a behind. A minute later Manning
secured the ball and running in close
kicked a goal. Just as he kicked the ball
he slipped and ricked his knee so badly
that he could not go on playing, but the
game was won. North Adelaide made a
Big effort to recover their lead, and straight
from the bounce they sent it down to their
forwards. . Wainwright, however, kicked
1 hurriedly and only a behind resulted. Be-

fore they could score anything further the
bell wentA and Norwood had secured their
second win of the season by seven points.
After half-time the football had been very

good. The goalkickers were:-Norwood- ,

WEST TORRENS BEATEN.

West Torrens, occupying next to bottom
place on the league scoring-list, played
their last game on the Alberton Oval on
Saturday afternoon against Port Adelaide,
and were defeated by 9 goals 22 behinds to
3 goals 6 behinds. Ideal conditions war-
ranted the expectation of a good exhibi-
tion, but the game waa too one-sided to
arouse any enthusiasm. Although the
home side won handsomely their football
was rather featureless, and marked by in-
dividual superiority rather than team
work- In this respect the performance of
the black-and-whites was somewhat disap-
pointing to supporters, but it should be re-
membered that with the weak opposition
there was. not the incentive for system
which a hard battle gives. During some
portion of the game both sides were list-
less, and in the last quarter particularly
the play degenerated into a mere scramble.
Ports' ¿hooting for goals was execrable for
a team with so many line forwards. The
easiest of chances went astray, and none
failed so miserably as Hansen, who was»
anxious to head Golding, of Sturt, in the
goalkicking honors for the season. He
had at least a dozen tries, but his usual
accuracy was wanting, and only a couple
of majors were credited to him.

1 Ports entered the field without their goal-
keeper (Pope), and West Torrens included

two players from the seconds (Peake and
Link} in place of Hutton and Kain.
Throughout the first quarter the Hind-
marsh men held their own. They were
generally faster on the ball, equal in the

nick, and had it not been for the able de- ¡
fence of Eaton, Londrigan, and Robertson
they might have held the advantage. With
Patten, Drummond, and Potter in the ruck,
Torrens forced the pace at the outset,
but it was Port Adelaide who scored first,
Hansen from a free getting a behind. S.m
opened the visitors' tally with a angle,
and then two minors were added to the
Port score before the siege was raised. No
one in cither team showed up so promi-
nently as Phillips, who time after time
, broucht his side out of danger with a we»l
[ timeä rush and an effective kick. Another
j conspicuous figure was Magor, who with
j one of his' characteristic rushes brought up
two flags for Port. This 'did not deter
I Wert Torrens, however, and bringing the

ball along the wing by cleverplay, Cameron
got their second behind. The balance of
the quarter saw the seasiders attacking
again, and Maynard and Hansen eaca
scored minors. At the first change the
scores were:-Port Adelaide, 1 goal 5 be-
hinds: West Torrens, 2 behinds. The
second quarter was practically a walkover
for the home side. They excelled in the
ruck, where McForlane, Dickson, and
Corjgear were far too good for the
lesa experienced Torrens men-Came
. ron, Peake, and Rice. West Tor-

rens began promisingly with a be-
hind (Link), but until close up to the
long interval they were on the defensive.
Ports' poor kicking lost them many oppor-
tunities. Ten shots produced only four
coals:, two of which were obtained by
Ö'Grady and one each by Hansen and Con
gear. Link was responsible for West Tor-
rens' second point in the quarter, and at
half-time the scores were:-Port Adelaide,
5 goals 11 behinds; West Torrens, 4 be-

hind?.

There was not much interesting play in

the remainder of the game. Torrens battled |
gamely enough, particularly in the third I
term, but they were no match for the vic*
tors. Port added 3 goals 6 behinds to 2
goals in the third period, and 1 goal 6
Behinds to 1 goal 2 behinds 'in the bit.
Although well fed by his clubmates Han-
sen'« ill-luck stuck,to him until the final
quarter, when he scored his second goal
for the afternoon. Dickson," Maynard,
and Congear figured largely in the winners'
forward lines in the third quarter, each
.being responsible for the maximum, and

Dedman and Patten scored for the blue
and-gold. A tamer finish has not been
se^n thie season. Neither side exerted it-
self during the last 15 minute«, and- the
majority of the spectators were glad
enough when the final bell rang.

SOUTH AUSTRALIAN ASSOCIATION^

FTNAL OF SECOND ROUND.

Sturt B and West Torrens B met on the
Adelaide Oval on Saturday to decide who
should play off with the minor premiers
(Port Adelaide B) for the premiership of

the South Australian Association. A fair
crowd attended, and a good deal of inte-
rest was manifested in the game. Sturï
i soon got to work and put on 4 goals and 2
¡behinds to Torrens' nil in the first quar-

ter. In the second quarter Sturts car-
ried their score to 5 goals 2 behinds, while
Torrens scored 1 goal 1 behind. On'resum
ing after the long interval Sturts' combi
' nation became more evident, and they put
. in some good play during the rest of the
I game. The final scores were:-Sturt B,
1 8 goals 4 behinds; West Torrens B, 2 goals
I 3 Dchinds. ' Sturts' back lines were very

strong, Ryan, McLoughlin, and A Kappler
particularly, doing* fine work in defence.
Gonlkickers;-Sturt-Offe (4), Clarke (3),
and Lewis,. ! West Torrent-O'Loughlin
i (2). For the winners 'Ryan, -Bennett,
Offe, Richardson, and Clark were the best,
i while Millar, Hegarty, E. Richmond,
Rivett, Denny, and O'LougHlin were the
j most conspicuous for Torrens.

SOUTH AUSTRALIAN JUNIOR ASSOCIATION, j

TNTER-STATE BOYS' MATCH.

On Friday evening the committee of the South
Australian Junior Football Association tendered a
complimentary smoke social, at Bishop's-Cafe, to
the Wentworth Football Club (Western Australia).
Mr. L. Holm«, in the absence of the president
(Mr. E. W. Langdon) occupied the chair. Mr. J.
J. Daly proposed the toast of "The Visitors,',' and
congratulated them on their enterprise and-pluck
in amking such a long trip. Mr. Prowse
(manager) responded, and referred to the kindness
and attention at all times shown to the party
since they had left Fremantle. Mr. E. Lodge
(secretary of the association) proposed "Kindred
Associations," and appealed for greater support
to juniors from leading bodies. Mr. J. Bowden
(representing the South Australian League) re-
sponded. Mr. Prowse \proposed "The S.A. Junior
Football Association,v and assured members that
his club'would ever cherish'the kindest remem-
brances of their trip to Adelaide and the hospi-
tality extended to them. Mr. L. Holmes (chair-
man) responded. The toast list was interspersed
with musical items contributed by Messrs.' Wil-
liams, Ewar. Doherty, Slade, and Daly.

A match was played on the Norwood Oral on
Saturday, between teams representing the South
Australian Junior Association and the Wentworth
(W-A.) Club, as a curtain-raiser to the League
game between Norwood and North Adelaide. The
game was interesting throughout, and the issue
was in.'doubt up to the time play was stopped.
The Anal scores were:-Western Australia, 11 goals
5 behinds; South Australia, 8 goals 12 behinds.
The best players for the winners were Parks,
Hicks, Smith, and Holmes. The losers were best
represented by Rees (best man on ground),
Beatty, Suhard, Stevenson, and Bruce. Goal
kickers:-Winners-Holmes (6), Parks (S), and
Smith (3); losers-Rees (2), Beatty (2), Suhard
(2), Boss, and Doherty.

AMATEUR LEAGUE.

P.A.C. VERSUS ST. FRANCIS XAVIER,

The game between Prince Alfred College and
ISt. Francis Xavier was very rough from start to

finish, and the umpire (Zschorn), who gave a dis-
appointing display, had a hard task. Princes
started off with' the wind, and Humphries quickly
scored a goal. Rayner got another, and then
Fowler got. one with a good left-foot snap. St.
Francis rallied, and the score at quarter;time was
3 goals 2 behinds to 1 goal 3 behinds, in favor
of Princes. In the second quarter St. Francis had
most of the play, and at half-time the scores
were 4 goals 2 behinds to 3 goals 5 behinds,
Princes still being in the lead. After the interval
.Xavier were again in evidence, but their kicking
was deplorable. They led at "lemons" by two

points-5 goals C behinds to 5 goals 4 behinds.

In the final quarter both teams put in with a
will. St. Francis added only a point to their
icore. while Princes, by good open play added
2 goals « behind!. Princes thus won by 14 points,
the final scores being:-P.A.C., 7 goals 9 behind«;
Xavier, 5 goals 7 behinds. Princes' goals were
kicked by Ravner (4), Fowler, Drcycr, and Hum-
phries, and Xaviers' were kicked by Eager, Sulli-
van, Easterbrook. Stapleton, and Handy. Best
men:-Winners-Rayner. Mander, Trott, Garner,
Dreyer, Bell, White, and Strempel; losers
, Brown, Sullivan, Power, Smith, Tormey, and
1 ST., BARTHOLOMEW AND GLENFERRIE.

The second match between St. Bartholomews
and Glenfenies resulted in another easy victory
for St. 'Bartholomews by 11 goals 15 behinds
against 4 goals G behinds. Glenferrie played
throughout without a lull team, and St. Bar-
tholomew played a man short up to nearly half
time. - At ' the opening bound the ball soon
found its way to the Saints forwards, and in
i about 5 minutes ave chances for goal pro-

duced only as many behinds. For " the rest of
the quarter and during the second quarter Saints
held the upper band. During the thir quarter
their forwards were playing to one another,

Apparently without hindrance, piling on six i
goals 5 to a couple of points, the scores at '
three-quarter time being 9 goals 13 behinds to

2 goals 4 bollinda. Glenferrics rallied consider- |
able in the last bout, and after a good combined I
effort put Earle in possession. He scored the

maximum, and the last quarter produced 2 goals '
2 behinds to each side. Jervois at centre played
consistently well for the losers, his marking and
foot-passing bein? flrstrate. The system . shown
by the winners' forwards was first-class, ? and left
little to be desired. For the winners Bruce

was the best, his marking and general all- '
round play being conspicuous, while Basedow,
Ford, Chamberlain, Clucas, Fraser, Borrows, Pit.
man, and Dayman all played exceptionally weil,
Thoec who played best for the losers besides Jer-
vois were Rve. Stump, Taylor, Craven, and Jones.
Coalkickers-^-St. Bartholomews, Downs (3), Clu-
cas (3), Chamberlain, Pitman, Bruce, Dayman,
and Roberts (each 1); Glenferrics, Morris (2),
Rye, and Earle (each 1).

VICTORY FOR SEMAPHORE CENTRALS.

Semaphore Central and Kingswood met -for the
second time this year on the latter's ground,
and after a mo<t exciting game Semaphore won
by 3 points. Both teams were fully represented,
as the winners would be practically assured
of minor premiers. Semaphore were the first to
attack, and quickly scored several behinds be
for Motley scored "their first goal with a fine
snap. Kingswood then exerted themselves, and
scored two goals in. quick succession before the
bell went. lu the second quarter both teams
attacked strongly, but they found the back men
of both teams too strong, and nt the long inter-
di the scores were:-Semaphore, 1 goal 6 be-
hinds; Kingswood, 8 goal«. On resuming Sema-
phore were the Sm to attack, and Stidíon scored
a gooL Kingswood replied with a similar re-
cord. From the bounce Semaphore again for-
warded, and Fraser scored the maximum. Sema-
phore were now going strong, and Fraser quickly
scored another goal, placing them in the lead.
But not for loner. - Kingswood attacked from
the bounce, and quickly scored 2 goals 3 behinds.

and at lemons the 6Coras were:-Semaphore, 4
goals 6 behinds; Kingswood, 7 goals 3 behinds.
With a lead of 15 points it seemed as- "f Kings-
wood held the game safe, but' Semaphore were
determined to die hard. J. Quinn encouraged
them with a goal, but Kingswood were not to
¡be denied. They forwarded from the bounce,
ami quickly scored a goal. From team, however,
a complete change came over the game, and,
with long, well-dirocted kicks, Semaphore soon
had their opponents on the defensive. W.
¡Quinn scored a goal, and within a few miuntes
repeated the dose. Kingswood weer struggling
to retain their lead, but W. Quinn was playing
the game of his life, and brilliantly marking
on the goal line, punted a goal, putting his team
in the lead fav three pointa. Kingswood rushed
the ball forwari, w^ere Page received a free
a yard from goal, but, to the disappointment
of Kingswood, could only score a minor. ' Sema-
phore attacked again, and hit the post The
bell then went leaving them winners by 3

points. W. Quinn, for the winners, was un-^
doubled!? the best man on the ground. In the
last quarter especially he seemed to be every-
where at the right moment Others who were
prominent were Wilcox, Donnell, Motley, J.
Quinn, Stone, Levy, Stidson, Thurgaland, and
howell. The most prominent for Kingswood
were Ardill, Matters. Wadewitz, Horsley, Middle-

ton, Warburton, and Rowe. Goalkickers-Sema- I

JUNIOR FOOTBALL.

To the Editor.

Sir—Another feature of our league's en-
couragement of junior football was evi-
denced at the Norwood Oval this after-
noon. During the progress of the last
quarter of the match between my asso-
ciation and the visiting Western Austra-
lian club (Wentworth F.C.), both of our
league teams engaged on the oval (Nor-
wood and North Adelaide), without any
semblance of framing whatever, en-
croached upon the playing arena and
caused the abandonment of the remainder
of our game. Two goals only separated
the teams at the time, and as the issue
was in doubt the league, for the sake of
five minutes' postponement, terminated
our game in a manner very unsatisfactory
to both teams concerned. This lack of
etiquette on the part of our leading body
is appalling, and I am sure that our
visitors' opinion of South Australian foot-
ball government will not be enhanced. One

pleasing feature, however, was the sports-
manlike view which the spectators took of
the position. Their disapproval was very
marked, and it was easy to see that their
sympathies rested with us—a fact which
should make the league more cautious in
future, because it is only by public sup-
port and the encouragement of juniors
that the league can hope to fulfil the aims
of their constitution in promoting and fos-
tering the interests of our grand Austra-
lian game, and not by actions of such
a despicable nature.—I am, &c,

ERIC G. LODGE,

Hon. Sec. S.A. Junior Football Association.

A GRADE.

A DRAWN MATCH AT UNLEY.

Sturt were without the services of their
brilliant forward, Mitchell, -and also Rus-
sell, on Saturday afternoon, when they met
Port Adelaide on the Unley Oval. Seve«
rai playera therefore had to occupy other
then their usual positions, and Dubois, the
regular goalkeeper, and a B grade man,
Robins, were m the field. Port Adelaide
included Langley, who was one of their
best players last season, in their number,
and he was very aggressive. Sturt began
well and netted three goals before Flet-
cher obtained Port Adelaide's first goal.

In the second quarter the visitors had most"
of the play, and while Sturt got only one '
goal, they threw in a trio, which placed
the teams on a level at half time. The
game became very uninteresting, and a
poor display was given by both sides. The
third quarter saw a goal scored by each
team, and a similar state of affairs in the
last brought the game to an end with no
advantage showing either way. The goal
scorers were.-Sturt-Searle (3), Flett
(2), Moffat (1). Port 'Adelaide-Hopkins
(2), Fletcher, Langley, Brock, and G. Mc-
Donald (1 each). The scores were:

Sturt. 6 goals
Port Adelaide . 6 goals

NORTH ADELAÏDE DEFEAT HOLD-

FAST BAY.

The Glenelg Oval was the scene of the
final game for the season between Hold-
fast Bay and North Adelaide on Saturday
afternoon, when the latter açain inflicted
defeat on their opponents, the score be-
ing 9 goals to 6 in favor of >the visitors.
Waddy secured from the face-oft and
passed to J. Thompson, who succeeded
in opening che Bay's account. Even play
followed, the back men of both teams
hold.ng the forwards well in check.
Hughes, however, scored a nice goal for
the Norths, and shortly afterwards it
was followed by one from the crosse or
McLean (Bays), but just before the finish
of the firsc term Du Rieu evened the
score. In the second quarter Norths had
the best of the game and put on 5 goals.
Mann securing 2 goals. Pavy, White, and

Moore, one each. Hocking, the North.'«'

goalkeeper, frustrated all the efforts of the
Bays with the exception of a try by.
White, which found the net. The score

at half-time was 7 goals for Norths and !
3 goals for the Bays. The home team
had the best of the game on resuming,
but the inaccurate shooting by their for-

wards accounted for their inability to,
secure goals. After repeated tries. Welsh ¡
and Vi lute scored a goal each for the
seasiders, and Du Rieu added another for
the Norths. The game in the final quar-
ter opened with big efforts bv both
teams. The visitors' tocal was added to
by Moore, and Peake got one for the
Bays. These were the only goals scored,
as the Norths played a defensive game
and were successful in staving off the
attacks of the home team. The Norcbs
^Were well represented by Hughes (who,
unfortunately, had to leave the field with
an injured-leg in the third quarter),
Pavy, Whyte. Rhodes, and Mann. The
bese pla>ers for Holdfast Bay were
, Thompson brothers, McLean, Hummel,
I and White. The goal-throwers were:
| North Adelaide. Mann. Moore, Dn Ríen
i (2 goals each), Whyte, Pavy, and Hughes;
