Both t-ame stepped on the field unbeaten, and so the lalge crowd of spectators looked forward; to a battle royal. Unfoicunateiy, their expectations were not realised, a.rd a very pc-or game was witnessed.. The referee, wh.o as a, rub is a very fine official, was lauu-nlablj weak on this occas- sion and did not keep the players w.ll in hand. Carnarvon in Llie first half kicked towards (the town goal, and were, more or less, favoured by a light breeze. At this stage the play of the home. team was decidedly superior, and they could do anything but score. However, the sudden breakaway of the veiy fast Denbigh forwards were always dangerous, and from one of 'these rushes, Edwards, th-e- centre-forward, scored a very soft iaal. ThoUJ Denbigh despite the fact that they had to phy Teeond fiddle as regard,- pressing, found themselves at' half-time luckily leading bv on* jjoal to nii. fe » The game re-started in grim earnest with Carnarvon determined) Ito t'ake the lead and Denbigh equally determined to maintlin or even increase their lead. The latter t' deter- mination materialized, and their swift for- wards often showed clean pairs of heels to the home defence and managed to add two more goa..s. Carnarvon had now been playing an atrocious ,ame, and had given up ad hopes of winning. However, urged on by the cheers of their supporters they managed to come on again and passed hotly for eome time. A penalty was awarded against Llew Rees, and from this R. H. Roberts, the home captain, scored! with a scorcher that Griffiths did not attempt to stop. Goal No. 2 soon followed from the foot of Bohanna. From now to the end excitmen? reigned supreme, but Carnar- von despite their pressing failed to secure another goal, and retired from the- are-na reaten to the tune of thre-e goals to two. Denbigh dcseiv?d their win on ^ne day => play, but were decidedly lucky to meet the Canaries L-he. services of Walter Jones, Evan Hughes and W. Hughes-. Their ab- sence meant a lot for the home team, an.8i it must be said that the three reserves did not co me up to expectations by a tong way. On the ether hand, Denbigh managed to put on the field their strongest team of the season, including R. Hughes and Buckley of l\h.y», and J. E. Edwards and Llew Re?s, of Corwen. K Debigh are a very emart team, and their savior :cru of sueed ju.-t. Save them the victory by the odd goal. All the forwards played" a very clean game with iJ. E. Edwards always a source of danger. The halves were also good wi^h the genial captain (T. A. Davie. an ea:,y first as player and sportsman. The backs were fcig in bulk and powerful in kick, buti bot.h showedi bad tempos when hustled. Ll?w Ree-s' conduct, on the fieid was I net all that could be desired—he should treat refereEs with greater respect, and leave all appealing to his captain. It is a pity such a good player should mar his play in such a manner. Griffiths in goal was very sate. Tke home warn gave a very disappointing r display. The forwards were all out of colour I and misaedl the leadership of Walter Jones. Bohanna did fairly well for a first appearance, but he failed to keep hi^ wings together. Her- bers and J. Williamdl were as usual untiring workers, but J. H. Griffith was a great fail- ure, and even a. source of weakness. J. Griffith was far irom safe at back, but gave a better display at half. He should do well in future games. W. H. Jonej was good in the F-st half, but lamentably w?ak in the second. G. H. Jones in goal was the best player in the t<vun on th- day's play. H" often played the visitors himself. Still, George-, kcep in your goal more. # Carnarvon are due next Saturday at Col- wyn Bay, and provide^ they return to form will not have much difficulty in securing at least one point. We understand that, the team has been strengthened materially since the Denbigh match. I Carnarvon are at home the three following Saturday-i. On tho 24th thev are due to play the Bangor T nivn-ity team. probably the strong sfc an-i most, brilliant team on the North .Wales Coasi. All lovers of classy and scien- tific football shon'd make a special effort to see the student-, on the Oval. Then come Conway and Llandudno to the Oval in search of League points. < Holyhead have had their revenge on Ban- ;gor, beating them to the tune of five goals to nil in the N." W. Cup Competition on Satur- da.y last. Both teams were at full strength, but the Swifts held th-e upper hand all through aria showed great dash and cleverness. They fairly turned the tables on Bangor, who beat them three weeks ago by three goals to two. The gale was- z9 4q. Despite a shaky start, Holyhead, promise to do well in the Lea. ue again this season. Who are going to be champions "his year? At present it is a very open question. J j » •» Conway and' Llandudno Amateurs met on the Morva, Conway, on Saturday in the first round for the Coast Amateur Cup. The game was excellently contested, the piay all through being pretty even on both sides. LTp to within three minuter of the call of time- neither team had scored, but at the last moment, the homsters penitra'e^ the visitors' t defence, andi ran out- victors bv one goal to nil.
