(Continued from page 9). Colwyn Bay v. Denbigh—Continued. and made no mistake. sending a shot hard and true into the left hand corner of the net. The jubilation of the home supporters knew no bounds, and from now to the end the game was intensely exciting. The Bay forced several comers, and should have scored more than once. But the forwards were weak in front of goal, and faitled to gain the lead, thus leaving the result: Colwyn Bay, 2; Denbigh Town, 2. COMMENTS. It was the most exciting match seen on the Penrhos fields this season, and in spite of the bad state of the ground, play was very fast throughout. At the close some of the specta- tors agitated for extra time, but Denbigh were quite within their rights in refusing to continue. As the previous matches had been declared n-till and void, Saturday's game was ieally the first in the round, and in a first match extra time ca-i only be played by mutual consent. But in subsequent games it is compulsory. There seemed to be some misapprehension cm this point, and for a time matters looked quite lively. Parry's pliucky action in taking the field in his injured condition, was cheered to the echo. Hi.3 absence would certainly have had the effect of disorganising the team. He was little troubled in goal, and Hall wood did well for- ward. The Bay should have won, for they had most of the game, and forced a dozen comers to Denbigh's two. Tonkin and McCaniri were the safe pair we know so well. The halves worked splendidly, and Wellings, although fre- quently beaten by Edwards, did many good things. Moss and Stanley were a serviceable wing, the latter playing an excellent game. Skelsey, in centre, scored a goal, but one ex- pects a centre to score, and his failure to find the net more than once must be attributed to the skill of the Denbigh defence. Owen put across a number of perfect centres, and it was not his fault the Bay. did not win handsomely. Griffiths had plenty to do in the Denbigh goal, and made some remarkable saves. Rees and Williams were hard worked, and came out with flying colours. The halves did well, but Hughes should have kept a closer eye on Owen. Lewis and Davies were fair. Edwards dribbled very cleverly. Berwyn was again the fastest imam on the field, with the ball at all events, and his runs were electrifying. Randies gaive him able assistance. A very close game should be seen in the re- play at Denbigh, and the gate should do more than pay expenses.
