FOOTBALL GOSSIP.
FOOTBALL GOSSIP. MEN AND MATTERS OF THE MOMENT. BY B. BENNISON. ILLUSTRATED BY JACK DODWORTH Perhaps the average man carcs little about the inner workings of the great football world, and yet I do not know why.. The sport has long been a mighty one; it has no counterpart, and the necessity for good, round, and practical gov- ernment is obvious. The inan who .iweart by the Association will have noted with special interest rhat rl," league clubs havo done that which it A ::s iiuperativo they should do. The; imw told Football Association that a stereotyped scale j)ii.viiient is a farce: that it eanriot l>e <>l>- v: d, and the sooner it is swept 011 one *i<le the ,>l'. And it will be conducive to something ,>i-oachiti'j common honesty anlong managers ,1 r':¡¡ builders. One is most anxious to know •• iiat the Football Association will do in re- sponse to ilio request made by the League lest -k. I think the Football Associai ion will be • •g"d » obey the dictation, else there will be ons trouble. Tile Rugby Union, to my thinking, are not re- for diplomacy. Of cvurc. it has al- Lven obvious that they would have to sus- pend Ivor Galx\ who wa* known at Leicester as .Jaek-o;i but I think one may fuirly quarrel with the authorities that they allowed him to go out to New Zealand before they made up their minds that lie had offended against amateurism. f T. Smith, the Leicester Iilayer who went out with the British team, and a w, 1" at present awrty from home, together with Mathews, tho Leicester captain, is a very seri- ous matter. And there may easily 110 a great deal of trouble. I do not know much about the ease of Smith one would like to hear his case bofore expressing a decided opinion but the sits- pen>i«n of Mathews has quite fairly created widely divergent views, and. t">r m naturally, .-iteii re.iitnierit at Leicester. It [.' insist^Ml bv Those who presumably know thai the only <>fience Mai hows has coaiinitted ha- been to give undertaking that if lit4 over decided to go to the Northern I nion he would join Hull. >uch a promise doc* not make ?dathews a pro- 1.

I did think r.v. rton were going to have a big run of -s during September.

James of that j ilk is intiking many goals, and I should think that the people at Preston who first introduced him to English football are sorry that they did not persevere with him. He is little removed from being one of the best centre forwards C)f tlle (i ay. Birmingham and B oiron Wanderers are making a bold liegin- ning. Itwiilbeim- mensely difficult to keep them in the Sec- ond Division for an- other season, but Lei- cester and Bradford City have so far not a very inapraaeiTe tigure in their new and rust company. But th"-e two elnbr; will improve. They eoukl do with some sharp- • K>ter« at these new First League centres. Old- ttfi people were perhaps disappointed at their ri-ckuool. but, not desoair.

DENBIGH TOWN V. DENBIGH CHURCH…
DENBIGH TOWN V. DENBIGH CHURCH GUILD. Theíie teams met on the Town Ground, in fine weather, and before a good gate. The teams were — DEN"BH;H TOWN Goal, S Griffiths backs, R Hughes and J S Williams; half-backs, H Beliis, T A Davies (Captain), and T Davies; forwardll, E E Davies, W E Hughes. J Ellis Edwards, H Randies, and D Berwyu Davies. DE\ HIGH CUGRCH GUILD — Goal, C W Lewis; bncfcs, David Hughes and Williams half- backs, J 0 Hughes, W H Humphreys, and Wait Lewis; forwards, Fred Lloyd (Captain), E Barnett Jones, W Rawson-Huglies, T G Edwards, and J Price. Referee, Mr E T Williams. The Guild won the toss and decided to play up the field. The first half was very keenly contested, play being fairly even, but the Town did most of the pressing. The Guild oal had several very narrow escapes, the bail hitting the upright on several occasions, till D Berwyn Davies with ft Jorg cross shot found the net I amidst cheers. Soon after W E Hughes was carce/ing for goal when he was fouled in the penalty area by Walt Lewis, but W E Hutrhes from the penalty kick placed the ball wide, and half-time arrived with the score Town 1, Guild 0. Upon restarbing the Town scored early through W E Hughes and afterwards they had the play all to themselves. Goals were scored by E E Davies, D Berwyn Davies, another by E E Davies, J E Edwards, E E Davies aud W E Hughes. The Guild then suddenly broke away and T G Edwards scored, i.es was followed by another by E E Davies and a 10th by W E Hughes. The final score was Town 10, Church Guild 1. Although the opposition was Lot very strong the 11 Seniors showed up extremely well and if they can only manage to keep this form up they should do very well in the league. Sam Griffiths did not have much work to do, but what he did have he coped with in his usually cool manner. The backs were in grand form. In R Hughes they have obtained a player of considerable merit and one who should prove a great acquisition to the team. His partner player superbly and was resourceful in his tackling, and in hi kicking and was always cool and brainy in his play. The halves, led by the energetic captain, put up a great display. H Bellis, who made his debut it. a match of any importance with a little more experience and a knowledge of feeding his forwards to advantage, should turn out to be a fine plajer. He has plenty of pluck and is strong, although youag. There is no need to comment upon the sterling play of Tom Albert Davies, whose I captaincy commenced with such a decisive win. May it continue so. Tom Davies also I showed that he had lost none of his old cunn- ing. The forwards were a really good set. The right wing was the most dangerous, the inside I man getting through a tremendous amount of work and feeding his partner to perfection, he, in turn, being responsible for some brilliant work with individual rues and centres. J Ellis Edwards, whose first turn out it wa8 in Denbigh colours, is an ideal centre forward, feeding his wings with great precision. The left wing needs no introduction to readers of these notes, for last season they were always &. good pair, and if that were possible showed better than they did last season even. I The Guild although beaten were not dia graced. It was no mean feat to play the Town team at almost full strength at the commence- ment of the season. They have lost some of their best players notably their late captain George E Lewis who was sadly missed on the outside left, and also J Parry Evans. Their goal keeper was not safe and would do well to drop some of his dangerous tactics if he does j not want to be hurt. The right back was not very safe, he paying too much attention to the man and not caring much about the ball, the same remark also applying to the right half. Good work was put in by the other players but their efforts were rather disjointed, which I hope will soon be remedied.
