;a momentary relief for you, dear Re!&, for once again, in the arena sb,e bu.Tn?l,ed and! flew n,etwards., but not yet qi--Lite, in the net. The I stage of play here could .only be descrihed as a kind of sham bombardment, for there was plenty of attack and sultrineas albourt: it, but no rasping shots!. There were pops, of course, but there you are, Rhyl, the soft thing has become a hard thing. You are having most of the play, and why can't you put that good ball in the net? It is a good ball, and there is no. flaw in it. Oh, dear, no. It is also tightly blown, so Gabon says, although he wanted to go and! see Evertoni and Bolton play. Such selfishness, I declare, to be sure! Sam Jones comes from Rhyl although he lives in Llandudno, and. if anybody ought to be away on that day it was you, Sam, but of course yoiu wanted to ree how much George Miicklewright had in that ba,g of his, now didn't you Don't deny it now, for I know. But I am digressinig from the ball question. To change the scene, like, Davey makes another excellent runl land slams a beauti- ful wing sb,ot,-an,d, it was a winger, too<—at Mark, and Mark nearly blotted his: copy book in trying to get it away. How John "Reis Tai" -among the faithful Rhyl siuporters squirmed when he saw this, as did aliso "Gabe's" pals near him. There you are, Rhyl, what's all your pressing good for? for here's that BoIb Parry hitting the post with a shot that might have spoilt your equilibrium and your final prospects. Then, again, there's Herbert, when he gets a run through, falls, on. his face when he ought to be running. Oh, cruel luck! Have you got ,studs on your boots, Herbert? To ,slip at such a moment was naughty. Then Heaton tried his luck, and it looked all the world over as if you bad boys in Red were going to shoot—not with a peashooter, of course—right into the rijet. Oh had you dlone the trick what prospects would arise? The final. A game with the Roosters, and perhaps the cup at Llandudno. But what am I thinking of? Rhyl are down Hobsonwards, and poor old "Case" misses his kick and that wicked Edward Ellis 'Hulghes chips in and1 at last finds the net. The band didln't play, though, nor was the Slky rent with cheers, but it was enough: for everyone that that little mis- take of Cass's had a world of responsibility loslt in it, and virtually gave the Vies their entry into the final. And so- ended the struggle for that ends—Rhyl, 1 Llandudno, o.

FRIENDLIES. CONWAY v. LLANRWST. THE BLUES IN BRILLIANT FORM. The Llanrwst eleven, who have passed into the final stage of the Junior C;up, viisited Con- way on Saturday, the occasion being a benefit for R. D. Richards, of Llanrwst. When the visitors arrived at the castle town, it was found that they had only a weak eleven, Archie Carter, Dei bach, France, Chisholm and Dick Evans failed to turn out. The Blues also were poorly represented, Tom Jones, Joe Wil- liams, Ilwfa and J. R. being absent. However, it was fortunate for the visitors that the Blues were not at full strength. The visitors were no match for the Blueis, and the score would have been far heavier but for Fincbett's fine form. There was only a poor gate, but I understand something like 30s. will be handed: over to' Richards as the result of the match. Uncle Lloyd again had charge of the game, and his: decisions, with the exception of the offsides continually claimed by Trevor. the visiting skipper, and sustained1, gave complete satisfac- tion. # On the stroke of three, Uncle sounded: the fog- horn, all the players responding at onice, to the signal. When the coin went up Trevor ,shouted tail, and as he was successful he took the ad- vantage of having the strong sun at his back. The' following composed the tteamlS: Llanrwst: Finchett; W. Trevor Jones, W. Owen; joneis, Thomas Roberts; A. Richards, Elias, H. Roberts, Wilson, Griffiths. Conway: Llew Parry L. H. Roberts, O. Ellis; Shem Jones1, D. Foulkes. Saunders; Ted Jones, Atherton, 'H. J. Davies, Sam Parry, Stone. ■» Fro-m the start the Blues went off on the left, Wilsc' tlirolugh Stone, who c,ollliclied with ?n' a Comwayite who was assisting the visitors', aind the game was. delayed: a, minute or two, but soon Stone was as bptsy as ever. In comi'ng down at a good pace Jones handled the ball juist out- sidle the penalty line. Saunders <sendiing in strongly, Finehett brought off a marvellous: save. Th.& Blues once more were hovering close to Finehett, Davey attempting to fiist the ball nto the net, but Uncle wa,s not having any, and from the free kick the Roosters went down in grand style on the right, Elias putting behind. ♦ Shem wa,s next seen: in a brilliant rum on his own. Man after man was dodged, and finally the little mallll attempted a pop on his- own. Davies, who was lying offsi,-Cib, ga-ve the f;nilslh* in-, ,L,c),tich, bilt the point, of course, was d??--4all,o.-wed' The visitors, could not l?eep the Blu-es?' quintiet?? out of their quarters. Stone, getting the ball from Sam Parry, raced away. W. Owen en- deavoured to block him, but to no avail, and Finehett was beaten to the world. From the Finchett misses a lovely ground shot from Will Stone. centre the 'visitors paidi Llew a visit. Roberts, the visiting centre, got through on his own, and should have madti matters equal, but shot miles over. A Moment later Wilson had very hard lines, his attempt being only a few inches wide. There was no denying the dash of the Roo,ste& right wing, and Saunders was busy breaking up some very useful touches. Saunders was penal- ised for throwing the ball. Trevor planted the ball right in front of Llew1, Roberts looking like scoring, when; Foulkes rushed up, clearing dis- aster. The old warrior Trevor could make nothing of Ted Jones and Atherton,, who were playing a tricky game. A splendid attempt to lower Finehett's colours was made by the former, the custodian fisting over. The flag kick, however, was put behind:. Atherton soon afterwards I treated the spectators to a fine dndividlual run, but Tommy was too hasty in front of Finchett, putting the ball over. Hughie Davies soon after passed out to the right, Ted Jones doirug the trick with a terriffic high drive. Again he was similarly placed, but this time he was offside. Stone, from a pass by Davies, brought Finchett I to hiskinees, but the custodian managed to save. ) The visitors were now having a very warm time of it. The home forwards were in the best of form, both Stone and Jones driving hard in from both wings. Stone, from a throw in., centred the ball with good judgment. Hughie rushed up between the backs and planted the ball safely past Finehett. Yet another goal was added, this time by Tommy. The interval was now drawing near, and a, fifth was almost scored by Foulkes from long range, coffee time arriving with the Bluesl leading by four goals. The second half of the game saw the Blues pressing almost from the start, and it was not long before. Saunders, from a by Sam Parry, increased, their lead. Straight from the centre came the Blues, Saunders again going through on his own and scoring the sixth goal. The visitors occasionally had a run through, but Lewis and Ellis were quite safe. Llew, the custodian, at times could be seen near the centre line trying his, luck at scoring. Stone again came down ,and, steadying himself, sent in a terrific drive, which lifted the net at the side. It was fortunate for the, home executive that the ball did not strike the net post. A breakaway by Richards almost brought about the downfall of Llew's charge, Wilson having hard lines, shooting .straight at Llew, who, however, clear- ed with ease. The ball had hardly been cleared before it was returned by Roberts, but this time wide of the marii, A visit was paid to the other end, Trevor claiming Atherton to. be off- t b side, the whistle at once sounded. Some mid- field play was now the rule. At this stage an amusing incident occurred, j Foulkes, in attempting to charge' an opponent, mistook his man by applying his weight to the referee, but without succe,s?s, F,oull?:ie.s finding I I-IoweN?eir, -iimis,elf a bit shik!e,n,. as no serioiis bariii had b,ae?n d,on..e, play c-on-tin?uiecl;l an,di tile ball was at o!n(c,e takleirr down on I the right. Teci Jones was again, offside, the same offence soon after being found in Hughie Davies. Still press- ing, another centre from the foot of Stonie was breasted past Finchet,t by Atherton. Stone added another point, thus bringing the total to eight -goals- to nothing. COMMENTS. It was rather a poor game. It is to be re- gretted that the visitors were not at full strength. They were very weak in the half- back division. That, no doubt, accounted: for the heavy goals registered against them. I fully expected a close game, taking the visitors on their recent form. Finehett was nervous be- tween the sticks. I don't know whether he had a. fright before the game commenced when Stone was practising his cannon, shots at the lower igoa.1 with Finehett in vain attempting to stop them. He ought to have stopped at least four of the shots which passed! him. I have seen Joe play a creditable game, between the sticks. The backs played1 a good and bad! kind of -game. Both, were fairly safe of their kick, but when pressed were often- at sea. The old waTrioi7 is as nimble as ever, and has a vast amount of football in him yet. The half division was very weak. Neither of the trio could do anything right. They were allowing the home forwards too much scope. Of the forwards, Roberts .made a fine pivot. He is quick and ready to take ad- vantage of all the centres that are put near the goal. They have a fine winger in young Richards, their outside right, but Elias was rather slow as partner. Griffiths makes a capital player on the extreme left, but Wilson, the Con. way player, was too. slow owing to his playing in his own "togs." « The Blues gave a good account of themselves, the little maini between the sticks beino- fault- less', whilst the backs played a round and' safe game. Lewis: will make a good reserve back, a point iin his favour being-his head work. Shem and Saunders played a nice and tackling' wame, but I think that this goal-getting practice of theirs ought to to be dropped at once. Feed more on the forwards. Foulkes, the Pen. warrior played a fair game. It must be remembered that thiiis was his first turn out this season. He is a thorough sportsman in his play. The for- wards were simply at their best, Stone being the favourite. He is a perfect terror near the goal mouth. Sam Parry was1 handicapped! on.,the out- side position, but worked satisfactorily with Hughie Davies is improving! every match as centre forward. He is quick to take action when the ball comes: his way. Atherton is what we may call a handy man. I think he could fill any position. He has already appeared successfully in three positions. In Ted Jones they have another coming player. His. centres are always true to the mark, and he should prove a valuable reserve. » < Next Saturday the Blues pay a visit to Car- narvon. Last time they visited the- Canary town thej' lost to tune of 4—x, but I hear that they wall make this visit with their strongest eleven. No doubt there will be a tough match, but the Blues should return with the full num- ber of points to their credit. COLWYN BAY v. DENBIGH. THE COUNTY MEN OVERWHELMED. THIRTEEN GOALS TO NIL A friendly match was played on the Penrhos ground, on Saturday], between these teams, and of course it was not once anticipated; that the County men would win. However, it is well for inferior te-amis, to rub up against a better class than themselves, which brings forth much food for reflection. The following were the te,ams:- Colwyn Bay: C. Hallwodd, goal; R. Camp- bell and O. E. Williams, backs Ned Griffiths, T. Wellings and R. Rowlands', halves; MoSis Jones, W. T. Jones, T. McCann, W. E. Hughes and J. LI. Owen, forwards. Denbigh: S. Griffith, .goal; L. Evans and J. Williams, backs W. Hughes, T. Hughes and L. Williams, halves; R. M. Evans, S. B. Thomas, Duekfield., R. Williams and T. Dav- ies, forwards. Denbigh won the toss, .and made tracks to- wards Hallwood. The Bayites sleaur.ed a throw in and put on pressure, J. Williams clearing. A corner was gained by the homesters, and, Mc- Carnn had hard lines with a capital headier. From a nice pass: by J. LI. Owen, McCann made a feeble attempt by kicking over the bar. From the goal kick the County men got down;, and T. Davies made a splendid attempt to defeat Hall- wood. After a nice run, J. Ll. Owen made a splendid attempt with a fine shot. Denbigh made a gallant attempt to. change matters, until Moss Jones made, in company with W. Jones, a good run. The Denbigh men put on pressure after this, and tested the Bay defence very much. A lovely individual attempt by Moss resulted in a goal. Denbigh, from the centre, made play and forced a corner, from which the Bayites got away, and McCann made a .splendid shot, which was remarkably well saved by S. Griffiths. Find,ay scored a second for his side, and; soon after a third was ,addled, and from a" scrim- mage a fourth, through J. Ll. Owen, and half time arrived with a fifth having been put on. < The second half needs no further comment than to say that McCann scored the 6th and headed the 7th. W. Jones accounted for the eighth, Moss scored the ninth, W. E. Hughes the tenth, McCann the eleventh and twelfth, and W. T. Jones the thirteenth. BANGOR UNIVERSITY v. ABERYSTWYTH UNIVERSITY. INTER-COLLEGIATE MATCH AT THE CITY. THE CITIZENS WIN AFTER FIVE YEARS! These very keen and sportsmanlike rivals met on Friday last at Bangor, when enthusiasm was at its climax between the respective sides. The class of football seen amongst these young gen- tlemen iis of the first water, and North Walians have had many occasions where they could judge of the genuine, neat, and effective game that the Bangoriaras- play. Their visits to any of the local towns are always hailed with pleasure, and Friday's match was a regular ding-dong fight for supremacy between the representatives of the North and Mid-Wales. The Aberystwyth men have always for the last five years held the upper hand, and on Friday the Ban-gorianis appeared in the early part of the game as if they were in again for another defeat. After ten minutes' work, however, of an inferior order by Bangor, W. H. Jones ran splendidly down the home left, and his centre was the acrue of perfection, and W. E. Jone,s managed- to draw first blood after fifteen min- utes' play. This, .success1 was acclaimed as only Bangorians can, and the point was fully de- served. < Bangor after this pressed, being elated with their success, when, all of a sudden a dash was made by the Aberystwythians, who forced' plajr gamely and secured a penalty kick which was' taken by J. D. Jones, who made no mistake, So strong and lively was the play that Bangor once more in their excitement infringed the rule within the penalty area, and glum did the Citi- Zelrus" supporters look when the kick was taken. Meikle, however, rase to the occasion, secured the ball and frustrated, its flight into the net amidst a huricane of cheers. There was more meaning in this feat than: was at first imagined, and owing to exceptionally fine back play on both sides half time arrived: with a goal to the credit of each side. The Aberystwythians commenced the second half in grim earnest, and penned the valiant Citi- zens in their own goal for about ten minutes, when at last the City men broke the tension by a sparkling run by W. H. Jones, who sailed away and put in another of his lovely centres., which Thomas met with exquisite accuracy and steered it into the net. Needless- to say, this second success and a lead put much heart into the Citizens, and the game thenceforward was of a regular ding-dong character, and no further score being made, the. proud. Citizens, for the first time in five years, registered a win over the plucky Midi-Wales sportsmen. The jubilation that followed was remarkable and the congratu- lationis profuse, and never did1 the "War- Whoop" of the Citizens sound, so whole-hearted.

Shavings. That the Roosters are naturally proud of their entry into the final of the N.W.C. Junior Cup. That they are not new to its possession, for they won a very handsome game against Flint some few years back at Rhyl. That then the artful "Arty" Elias wias- the outside, right man. That "Arty" still pursues sports at Chelten- ham. That the Rhyl Victorias fully deserved, to win at Llandudno on Saturday. That they were a superior all-round team to the Amateurs Reserves. That they ought to have won by a larger margin. That the final, it its hoped, will be played at Llanidiudnio. That the "Vies' performances to get into the final were a draw with Church Guild on. the Guild ground and a win at the replay, defeating Greenfield at Greenfield, and Llandudno at the latter place-very good. performances. That the Rhyl Vies. is a well-managed team. That the greatest harmony prevails between players and Committee. That it is practically a working-man's team. That John! "Res Tai" is an eloquent "spouter" and a great Vicite. That I am -of opinion that he has been an after-dinner speaker. That he made elegant speeches at the tea given by the Chairman, Tom Robinson, at Richardsoni's Hotel, after the match. That the Vies. behaved themselves well, as all footballers should do. That Referee W. Ll. Jones and "Vigilant" were at the tea!, and sat at the. same table. That Will handed "Vig." some cake. That Tom Robinson praised Will's refereeing in glowing language. That "Vigilant" rattled his cup at the tribute. That people are wondering who said they were not friends. That it must be necessary to criticise public men, either good or bad, when they deserve it. That Referees even—so much maligned-have their friends. That "Vigilant" has many Referee friends, old and new. That Will Jones: is one of them. That Mr. Roberts, the Secretary of the Con- way team, will agree with this, and so will Mr. Warren Williams. That the Duncan Cup in the Wednesday League tournament is a beauty and most ele- gantly designed. That it is on view at the Avondale Restaurant, Llandudno. That whoever wins it may well feel proud of so worthy a trophy. That the Wednesday League is an excellent institution. That the finalists are the Llandudno Celts and Llandudno Wednesdays. That both teams are in strict training. That given fine weather, -the final is bound to be a tit-bit. That both sides have many friends, and ex- citement will run high. That may the best team win on its merits. That the Amateurs of Llandudno have been photographed in their new colours, and look well. That Edwards, the "Mold International," was taking a bird's eye view of the cup-tie at Llan- dudno, on Saturday, from the Light Railway road. That I suppose he was afraid to come among the spectators for fear of too many warm con- gratulations upon his previous week's display. That he is not a bad sort, and takes a good photo. Never mind, Edward, old boy, better luck next time. That the clever O. B. Edwards, of Holyhead, was in his old position of centre forward at Llanfyllin. That he' was welcomed in the ranks. That six League teams are engaged' on Satur- day. That Festiniog, Bangor and Carnarvon- sp-ec- tators will see Llandudno, Colwyn Bay and Conway players, and it is hoped good gates. That Charlie Parry, the erstwhile Evertonian, was the referee at Llanfyllin. That he shines as a refree as he did as a player. That he is the nearest approach to friend. Beech that I know. That the pair would make a splendid' "So- Amuse" twins. That the Canaries have had a queer time late- ly—which is a pity—through disappointments, &c., &c. That poor Denbigh returned from Colwyn Bay with a baker's dozen of goals against them. That I am assured that their crushing defeat was not due to inferior play on their part, but to Colwyn Bay's exceptional good combination and good shooting. That it is a pity the Bayites cannot shew the same form, or something approaching it when it really matters.

Football Notes. (BY "VIGILANT.") I think lit will be conceded by all who wit- nessed the .semi-final for the Junior Cup, at Llandudno, on Saturday, that it was far away from being of the true cup tie order. Had it been only what we miscall a friendly, the dis- play might 'have been better. There was lack of enthusiasm all through., and there was nothing particularly bright about the whole concern, un- less it was Master Hobson's clearing a corner in gallant fashion, and the capital way in which he toppled: a fine shot from T. W. Ellis over the bar. The openings that Rhyl Victoria got were innumerable, but they had evidently left their shooting boots at home. What do you say. Chairman Robinson? I opine that tactics must be altered:, "Aline tear" Vies., in the final if you are to win. the cup. The Poultry that you will have to meet are game birds, and'the}7 have done some good things, mind you, and really mean to try and do more. They say the cup is going to Llanrwst. and I suppose you dear little Vies. say it is going to Rhyl. Of course, you can't divide it between you even if you draw. And lor! bless' me, what a lot of draws we have really had: this season. I think the Roosters— game birds that tl,ev ar,e-h,a-,re done better than you have, Vios., in the competition. You know you have only had one of your own town teams to cope with, and Greenfield away. I don't think the Greenfield team is now what it was when Holyhead drew thrice with them. Remem ben. young Vies., I don't want to disparage your performances, of course, but just to tell you the fact. And you had a very narrow squeak of even winning at Llandudno. You played a far better game all through than Llandudno, but you could not score, and, dear little boys, goals are what win matches. Hard lines, as in bil- liards, don',t count, my lads. My impression of your prospects in the final were not those ot over-confidence in you, and sneaking for the nonce into the prophetic line I really think you will need to buck up a lot to knock the Rooster off hiis final perch. The Roosters' defeat at Conway on Saturday need give you no cause for elation, for the spec- ies that appeared at Conway were a number of ( moulting birds. The Poultry will be full plumed in the final, and their feathers will need a lot of rufflng. Take my tip, this is a fact. Of course, if you do. happen to win I will take credit to myself that I had a share in the con- quest, owing to the sage advice I am giving you, or rather pointing out your weaknesses that you may be strong. So look to your laurels. I will give- you a few hints as to how to win before the day comes, as I take a pride in your pro- gress and wish you every fair play and victory if jrou can get it. I thought your goalkeeper, Mack by name, was not over sound, as he could:, with a better team against him than, the Amateurs' Reserve were, have been easily defeated. Perhaps he was not in his best vein. He looks a solid little chap, and perhaps was reserving his prowess for the further struggle. Remember, Mack, you will be one of the mot important men on the fields that day. T. W. Ellis was the hero of the day. He was fine as a back and as resolute and firm as a rock. Seldom has better back play been seen on the Council Field. J. Williams, as Ellis's colleague, was also very good and reliable. R. Hughes did excellent work as right half, and the Captain, J. W. Ellis, was very successful as the centre man in the middle line. W. J. Hughes madie up a capital trio. The forwards were a* fleet set, but were not in great shooting form. "Gabe" Glass is a capital forward, and so is R. Hughes, as outside men, and great work was done by them. Harrison, as pivot, was fair, whilst J. Hughes was the best shot, apparently, of the quintette, which included E. E. Hughes. Hobson, of course, was good and could not be blamed for the solitary goal that passed him, for it would have defeated any man between the sticks.. Still, "Hobby, I told you Rhyl would win. You must really not smoke so many "Cin. derellas/' Mr Edgar Newton was watching you, and has yon "sketched" to the life in one of your glorious positions of fighting the ball over the bar. Cassidy was a revelation of wonderful doggednesis and persevexanoe. And only for you, "Cass," matters' would have been, much worse, I am sure. I won't say you are an er- ratic player after Saturday, and I will give you the biscuit I promised you when I see-you. Sam Williams defended well on one occasion. Sam, you did a wonderful thing, which I speak of elsewhere. Hall was the best of the halves, for Taylor and Abbot (not of Everton, please)' were not expected to staggeT the spectators with any grand work, which, of course, thev didn't. Davey Griffiths never worked harder, I am sure, and Dave, I am certain, you missed your natty little partner, "Aldy," for Bob Parry was too slow for you. Cheetham, as the pivot, rambled a lot out of his place, and you know, Herbert, you were far from your usual form. You have the play in you, and I can only hope it was the fact that j^ou had strange partners again that made you take such a roving commission- Next time. Herbert, please rove back to where you were before you were. Good old "Settle" re. appeared once more, and was a success. I stip. pose your leg is right again, old boy? Strength. en it well and hurry back to 'the first team. (Continued on page 14.)

North Wales Football. [CoNTiN'UKD.] Edward Ellis Hughes. Thomas Harrison, Gabriel Glass and John Hughes. The Vies. started play towards the sea goal, and Llandudno at once opened promisingly, but their caroer was only short-lived, for W. Taylor serlit a fine long shot wide of the mark. Hall was showing some neat touches, and the Vies. oiaide good headway down the right, and from a throw in a shot was essayed at Hobson, which Was well negotiated, only to find' Robert Hughes return with a slashing centre from a fine run, and as it got to the goalmouth it was landed On to left by the Amateurs' defence and .steered out of danger for the nonce. The ball was cleared' up the field'- by a series of sharp ex- ch got ?-own a,,?,,ain,anid?,tbie final an,e.s, and Rhvl atte?m.pt was n,e?tl3,, robbed. Still holding the adlv,anta,ge, the, Amateurs per Dav,,eN, C?,riffitbs from- a zood pass bv Bob Pa,ury centr,e,d again beautifully, but nothing ensued, the defence of Rhyl prevailing. Down came Rhyl towards Hobson by strong play, and Hobson',s charge had a r .),arrc?-?v squeak, an?i l?ieepin: up the r)res,ure forced; a corner. Hobson, from behind a ruck of players, cleared splendidly, and in a trice an electrifying shot was sent flying past the post. Whatever the Amateurs' work was worth it 'Was much depreciated by T. W. Ellis's capital Work as left back. Now the Amateurs' again hadl the- advantage, and some good work by Cheetham and Heaton Jones saw the latter make good attempt to score with a shot ju.st wide. rhe game after this became rather poor until a burst away by Rhyl was made, and a score seemed almost inevitable, for the defence of Llandudno seemed beaten until Sam Williams her-olea]]y ran over to the right anld kickeldi de ball 'OUlt. A moment or two. l,ater Ca's.sidv wlas &aving 'gamely, and the pres'suiTe put on by" Rhvl wétIg reliel'íed when a flving- shot went over tne b u ar. From the goal kick, Davey Griffiths, after sOme good woirk, made a capital run and forced f- corner, which was well placed, and1 cleared by Rhyl. Somewhat luckily. Llandudno return- ed to the attack, and Rhyl defence was busy Until a foul against Llandudno changed matters. /Vhen Bob Parry received a good chance le ft'esitate-d as to when to put the sphere, and While con. side ring was prooerlv robbed. A foul against Rhyl gave Llandudno another chance, aJid.aishot from Settle rolled slowly in and was cleared'. Another run by the Rhyl outside man glided 'in shooting over.
