Glamorganshiro Association League I Notes [By "the New Boy."] I Chief interest last Saturday centred round the Third Hound of the South Wales Senior Cup, six clubs taking part in some momentous struggles. Treharris and Cwmpark had already met on the previous Thursday, but the game ended in a draw, and necessitates another meeting. Ton Pentre met Barry District at home, a strenuous ninety minutes' game yielding but one goal. This, however, sufficed to enable Ton to qualify for the semi-final stage. Aberdare travelled into Pembrokeshire to meet the redoubtable Fishermen, at Milford, a game chock full of exciting incidents resulting in a draw. A similar state of affairs occurred at Merthyr. where Mardy were the visitors. In the Glamorgan League, Cwm met. Tr^hajris at home, the visit of the. South Wales champions caus- ing exceptional interest. The home team early de- monstrated their ability to iind the net, as a quick break away by Ivor Davies, the home winger, fol- lowed by a well-judged centre, enabled Jos. Moore to defeat Bailiff. Considerably surprised. 'J'reharris retaliated strongly, but met with a. sound defence, which Cwm soon turned into attack, and despite several well executed clearances by Bailiff, a simi- lar movement by Ivor Davies and Moore again re- sulted in the downfall of the visitors' citadel. Again the visitors tried to raise the siege, but Charlton and Wall. the home backs, defended valiantly. After resuming, matters for a time ruled very even, but a. burst by the visiting forwards saw Abley send- ing in a stinging shot to Parsons, which he safely parried, but Abley aigain regained possession, and sent into the not. Near time, Tagg Williams suc- ceeded in equalising. On the day's play, Trebarria were undoubtedly fortunate to secure it point. Pro- bably their exertions at CwmpsrJc on the previous Thursday must be set down as an excuse, as on the run of the game Cwm deserved the whole of the spoils. -1(- In the Second Division, considerable progress was made, no less than five engagements being brought to a definite issue. Probably the createst surprise of the day was the downfall of Pontlottyn in the presence of their own supporters by three goals to one, more especially when only a. week previous Ponty overwhelmed the 'Darians at Aberdare by four goals to two. However, on this" occasion, the visitors strengthened their forces, among others be- ing their new capture, Davidson. from Bolton. Tho first half proved very even,' the home team most unaccountably missing several promising openings, while the visitors seemed to adapt themselves better to the hard ground, and pressed home tho attack. An unfortunate accident to Owcrt Williams, the home back, led to their undoing, and the final sa.w Ponty in arrears by the score already stated. I Trehafod visited Danbra.dach. the hymney Val- I ley team proving themselves the superior combina- tion throughout, and winning .by. three clear goals. .);0. Merthyr Town Reserves provided Gilfarh with a game bristling with exciting incidents. The home team, although playing against the slope, were early in the ascendant, and Bullock, spying an opening, sent the ball past- Lewis. The second .point was not long delayed. Betterton. one of the visiting backs, elbowing the ball inside the sacred area, Harris con- verting "the resultant penalty. Merthyr r.ow began to have a little more of the play. Which resulted eventually in Smith pntting through. The resump- tion saw Gilfach having the advantage, but al- though they forced some dozen cornerE. only hard lines accrued. Later, effective work by narris saw Bullock scoring his second point..Prom tho centre kick, Merthyr attacked strongly, and Smith, the home custodian, allowed Smith to beat him with a simple shot. Bullock again soon increased the home team's total. Near the end a transformation took place, Merthyr attacking strongly, and Davies scored another point. As matters went, the visi- tors were fortunate to put on three goals, tho play or the lt«mn team being value cf a greater pre- ponderance over their '•pponents. True, Smith, the home custodian, proved a very weak chain in their j armour, and with a less reliable pair of backs than Walters jjtud McK^uglit, yistpry. nae liave gon^ to] the visitors. Ahvay, at half, and Bullock aud Har- ris, forward, played a very brainy came. After many victories, Troedyrhiw, like the Romans of old, have at length been compelled to acknow- ledge defeat. True, the defeat was sustained on foreign soil, and withal, was only gained by the narrow margin of three goals to two. Nevertheless it sufficed to enable Treharris Reserves, who are rapidly advancing in the table, to add yet another two points to their credit. W. Thomas opened the scoring for the Reserves, and Jacob Davies. the old Nelsonian, scon equalised. Exciting play fed- lowed, and one of the visitors committing an offence in the penalty, area, enabled Jack Thomas to score. This reverse inspired last season's champions to renewed efforts, and Ted lle&rscy again equalised, Keen play followed, and just when a draw seemod probable, Joe Fletcher sent in a long dropping shot, which completely baffled Hackleton, the visitors' custodian. New Tredegar gained their biggest win of the season bv defeating Nelson by five goals to nil, which success places them iu the second position on. the table of mf.rit. and well m the running for honours. Jack Thomas (2), Cha'.win, Sleath, and Jack Jones were tho scorers. -h 7: In the Third Division Pencam surprised even their own thick and thin supporters by defeating Lian- bradach Rovers at home by the odd goal in. five. The first twenty minutes proved very even, Bryn Lewis then giving his side the lead. Soon after- wards Pensain sinned in the sacred area. but Crew prevented '1'. A. Evans converting. Following the re- sumption, the visitors pressed hotly, but. 1aii.a>to penetrate the home defence. Good combined play- by the home quintette resulted in Joe yniiums scoring, Llanbradach doing ditto a minute later, while following a long attack, the visitors succeeded in drawing level. Considerable excitement now reigned, but near time Percy Summers secured the winning goal in fine style. £ Merthyr Vale visited Abercanaid and over-ran the j Stars by five goals to one. Quakers' Yard strengthened their position at the head of affairs with a splendid two to one victory over their neighbours, Abercynon. Ystrad Mynach visited Brithdir to meet the home second string. The pauie throughout consisted chiefly of long kicking, in which the respective backs were of ten conspicuous. Very little attractive play's however, was witnessed. For Brithdir, Williams, in goal, Welsh and Williams, back, Green, ban, and Dudley, forward, played meritoriously, while for Ystrad. Edwards, goal. Lay, and Harris, back. Lewis, half, and Ivor Jones, forward, contributed several good movements. Nelson Reserves visited Abercanaid, and divided the honours and the goals with the United. vC- New Tredegar Thistles visited Pentrebach, a dose game resulting, which ended in favour of the home team by the onlv goal of the match. *• Trocdrhiwfuwch, the present runners-up, visited Troedyrhiw to meet the Reserves. Unfortunately, the visitors were unable to field a full complement. Troedyrhiw started with some very brisk move- ments, a round of passing resulting in Scott giving them the lead, while a tick later Evans, the vis- iting keeper, was again called upon to clear a strong drive. The visitor* afterwards appeared to better advantage, and Brady put in a fine solo run, but was bowled over iu the danger area. The same play- er converted the resultant penalty. Play afterwards became very vigorous, and the presiding official had cause to order A Laws and lJ. Hook, two of the visitors, off tho field. This did not meet with the approval of the visitors, who abruptly leit the helu, tho game ending in a Dasco. In the Fourth Division, Rhymney Crescents, who hold a commanding lead in the tourney, added yet another victory to their record at Aberbargoed. Al- though having the wind in their favour durmg the first hall, the Crescents seemed all au sea, and failed to score. The second half, however, saw a change in the proceedings, W. Hall and W. Morgan scor- ing for the visitors. For the winners Morgan and Peters, hack, Crane and Jones, halves, and Hall and Griffiths, forwards, were best". .;(0 Troedrhiwfuwch met Phillipstown at home, and defeated them by the odd goal in throe. I On Moridav, Greenfield Rovers visited Troedrhiw- I fuwch and won a good game by two goals to one. I For the home team, Cliilds. D Jones, F. Powell, and Grimshaw did well, while for Greenfield, H. Evans, W. Roberts, S. Williams, and W. Holt were I prominent. A meeting of the Old Boys Section of the above League was held at the Penywain Hotel. Rhymney, on Wednesday. Mr. G. Jones, New Tredegar, prc- sidino- over a large attendance. Owing to protests regarding the age limit the League makhes.. Pont- lottyn Brigade, v. Greenfield, and Aberbargoed y. Bargoed, were ordered to .be replayed on cup-tie principle. Several complaints of non-marking of grounds wero received, and all clubs were instructed to endeavour in future to work their grounds as per rule for League matches. It was further decided that in future any clnb discovered playing an in- eligible player two points would be deducted from their score on the League Table. Several other pro- tests were read, but were deferred for further con- sidration. The ordinary meeting was held at Hengoed Junc- tion Hotel, on Thursday, Mr. H. Williams presid- ing. A report was read from Mr. Tudor Davies, Cefn, respecting the Aberaman ground, and it was resolved that they be given 14 days to PIa ecthrir I ground in order. Owing to non-fulfilment of fix- hmg. Trehafod and Trciewis were ordered to pay Merthyr and New Tredegar respectively 13s. each within 14 days. New Tredegar and Ystrad Mynach were also fined 7s. 6d. each for a similar offence. Respecting a complaint by the Aberdare League re the Aberaman Club fixtures, it was decided fo take no action. GilFncli nrotested against the re- sult. of their match at Treharris, alleging the re- feree did not play full time, but same, was not sus- tained. Owing to financial difficulties tho resig- nation of Trolewis Reserres was accepted.

Tredegar District Notes. fBy "Old Judge."1 A Monmouthshire League match between B lain a and Cwmbran was played on the latter's ground on Saturday. Dull Jones started play for thft home- sters and Blaina were soon on the attack. From a scrum near tho half-way line the Blaina forwards heeled, and Evans, centre threequarter, broke through in admirable le, but was smartly brought down by Tucker. A little later Evans crossed with a fine try for Blaina, and added the extra. points with a capital kick. Then Cwmbran forced the game, and Crocker cleverly fielding, scored an un. converted try. After the interval Cwmbran restart-, ed and Rees Rees. with a fine kiclfc sent, the ball over the cross-bar, but the referee disallowed the goat which it was claimed had been scored. Tucker scored a try for Cwmbran in a magnificent forward rnsh. Blaina next attacked and smart work by the centres. Evan and Williams, resulted in the latter scoring a try which converted. Blaina won by ten points to six.

Rhymney Valley Rugrby League Not. [By "the Old Wag."] Althongh resting since their New Year's Day vic- tory over Bream. Rhymney bad given due regard to their weekly training with a view to keeping fit for their long-anticipated visit to Caerphilly, the latter being a hard liut to crack on their own sward. Unfortiinateiy for the visitors' chances of success, Lewis Davies, full-back, L. Lewis, half, and Gittens, forward, failed to accompany their com- rades. Very close play marked the opening stages, the respective backs simply defending. Later, Ar- thilr Francis initiated a round of passing, the final- transfer going into tot^li. Rhymney now attacked strongly, scrum after scrum being fought, out near the home goal-line, and on one occasion their flver, Tom Williams, intercepted, and was nearly over. After restarting the second half, CheeseopoliS came more into the picture, but they found the visitors' defence very sound. Later. ilarry Benjamin fc, lieved with a fine screw kick. After some fierce forward work Tom Williams was given an opportu- nity to show his paces, but. failed at the critical moment. For feet up Caerphilly were penalised OD two occasions, but Harry Benjamin's luck was out in sending across. During the last ten minutes Rhymney made desperate attempts to cross, but ute home defence prevailed, although Rhymney, by dividing the points, improved on last season's de- I feat, there is no gainsaying the fact that they should have g-arnered the full brace, as nearly throughout they had the pull of the play. True, they exhibited a slight weakness in finish. Be- van, who occupied the last line of defence, gave very meritorious display. The quartette, who were not given many opportunities, made no glaring er- rors, while tho front rank outplayed the Castle eight throughout. -1(. it. Pontlottyn entcrta.ined Erynroawr Seconds, a very pleasant encounter resulting. The home team press- ed from the outset, but the sound defence of Preece, the visiting custodian, kept them at bay. Eventually Lew Thomas went slick through, their defence, and scored, the extras being added. Con- tinuing to attack, Ponty wore aga.in nearly through, hut some good forward play by the visitors relieved the situation, and Tom Davies was called upch to save. After resuming, play beame more even. Green crossed with an unconverted try for the visi- tors, the home team faiHng to increase their lead. .¡:x. New Tredegar was due at. Beaufort in a Second Division ame, but although the homo team and Mr. Walters, Rhymney, the referee, were on the field in readiness, the visitors failed to put. in an appearance, and avpractice game was indtilgod in. -N- Penylan, the smart Cardiff combination, visited Aberbargoed, and wbat.ii more important, had the audacity to return with the Rhymney Valley Club's much cherished ground record. :t.; The Seconds of Crumlin and Newbridge met at the Viaduct town. and the usual exciting and even gam* was witnessed. The only tangible score secured during the first half was a. splendid goal for New- bridge by G. Williams. After resuming, Crumlin initiated several splendid rounds of passing, one of which eventually enabled Jones to cross, Thomas converting. For Newbridge, Martin, George Wi!- liams, and Thomas were always in evidence, while for the winners, Dodds. French, and Davies accom- plished much to secure their fine victory. Rhymney Lily Old Boy, met Den Old Bovs, nn Monday, a keenly contested encounter resulting in a pointless draw.

Monmouthshire Association Notes. [By "the New Boy."] Llanhilleth, despite their downfall at Cwm, the week previous, anticipated adding another brace of points to their record as the result of the visit of Abergavenny last Saturday. Unfortunately, owing to the frozen state of the ground, it was deemed advisable to play a friendly, which took considerable interest out of the game. The homo team fielded short of Price, their brilliant full-back, and Lock, at half. Aber attacked earjy, and were soon one up. Llanhilleth came away immediately from the centre kick, King, with a well judged shot., equalising. Even play afterwards characterised the proceedings for some time. Later, a scramble ensued near the visiting citadel, and Thomas gave the home team the lead. Not tobcoutdonc, Aber. again came away in tine style, and Watkuis again made matters as you were. Llanhilleth forced the pace after restarting, and soon were awarded a corner, during which one of the Castle team han- dled. and Harding made no mistake with the result- ant kick. Following this, the Castle team ajrain found a weakness in the home armour, and for the third time made the scores level. However, prior to time, Kin again scored, which enabled the.home team to win a very pleasant game by the odd goal in seven. For the winners, SUuiion, who made his debut at full-back, did very well, while Jones, King, Moon, and Harding plajed splendidly in their reo 6pective positions. Tredegar Town. with several short of their regu- lar complement, visited Caerieon, and seeing what happened, caught, the home team at the top of their fonnt and suffered accordingly. Caerleon, although starting with nine men, seemed always masters of tho situation. Not that Tredegar played a bad game by any means, but tho iircsistfblc all-round work of the home quintette plave.d sad liavoc with the %isitors' defence, nnd enabled them to run up a total of no le«i than eMst goals. Tredegar rc- eponding$a bnt tvys e,<;c.a,6i«&6> .th» jrwitgrs,J Jones again figured prominently at centre forward, and scored his usual goal.

It might be decided in this Parliament; it might require another appeal to the country before many months were over.

MERTHYR EXPERIENCE The personal experience of | a Merthyr man is given here 11Jecau se a neighbour's advice J is the best comfort to the I anxious sufferer from kidney [ and bladder troubles :— ? iU A il i i Mr. John Way, who lives at 14, Lower Thomas Street, Merthyr, says:—" I was away from work for three months owing to kidney disorder. In the mornings I was unable to f stoop to lace up my boots because of the sharp f stab-like pains in my back. I can hardly t describe the agony I endured. I could not I sleep, and used to turn from one side to the other in bed, trying to ease the pain; but it was no good. I felt low and depressed, and f became irritable at the least thing. 4 After suffering in this way for a long time F I was persuaded by a friend to try Doan's I backache kidney pills. I am glad I did, for now I am able to do my work without pain, and f I enjoy splendid health. When I had taken f one box of the pills I felt much stronger, I could I eat well, and was better in all ways. Two more ? boxes of the pills completely cured me, and for a many months now I have been in perfect health. I Doan's pills are indeed the best medicine I have I ever taken. (Signed) John Way."

THE ASSOCIATION GAME. SOUTH WALES SENIOR CUP-THIRD ROUND. A MODERATE DISPLAY AT PENYDARREN PARK. rBy "Half.Back." Slerthyr, by virtue of being finalists in this com- petition last season, were exempt until the third round, which was down for decision on Saturday, at Penydarren Park. The weather was tine but cold, the ground being frost-bound and very treacherous. The Town team varied considerably from that which so successfully contested the early rounds of the Welsh Cup, W. Davies playing back with Chap- man, Pemberton partnering Wuittaker on the left wili, and Fisher ptaying inside right. The football shown by both, teams was very moderate, the hard state of the ground, no doubt, accounting for the poor display. If science was lacking, bad feeling and rough play were too evident throughout the game,, especially in the latter halft wtiea Whittaker and Nasli showed fight on two occasions, the referee eventually ordering both players off the field. The players on both sides had many nasty mishaps. Whittaker, Llewellyn and Kelly, on the Merthyr side, and Jacobs on tiio visiting side, all received more or less serious injuries, which necessitated their leaving the field for some time. Mardy were fortunate in winning the toss, and played with the sun and wind in their favour, but Merthyr were the first to threaten danger, the visi- tors having to kick into touch to save their lines in the first few minutes. The homesters kept up the pressure, the Mardy goall having a narrow escape from a fine cross shot by Melvin. Play was car- ried to the opposite end, where Daw saved a rasp- ing shot from McDonald. The homesters set up a promising attack, but Whittaket got off-side, and from the free kick, the Mardy boys srot close into the home goal, where Daw proved himself too good for Latham, who tried with a good shot. Play con- tinued fast, but neither side could claim advan- tage for some time. The Merthyr halves were in good fettle, and sent their forwards away, Whit- taker and Pemberton both testing Williams, but it v as left to D. W. Davies to put on Merthyr's first goal, which he did in a finished manner. Llewellyn and Churchill were applauded for clever tackling, the locals again becoming dangerous, but their final efforts were rather weak. The visitors broke away, Jacobs forcing a corner, which was well placed, and Latham scored the equalising goal for Mardy. Merthyr played up well after this, Mclvin getting in a good centre, from which Pemberton missed by inches. Mardy again returned to the attack, twico shooting: over when well placed. Whittaker was injured and had to retire. Jacobs was next prominent with a ripping shot, which Daw saved cleverly, and the homesters paid a visit to the Mardy territory, where D. W. Davies had the worst of a collision, but con- tinued to play. Jacobs was the next victim, and had to bo carried off the field. There was no more scoring dtirinjr this half, and at the interval honours were easy, each side having one goal to their credit. In the first half the players were getting out of hand, and fouls were very frequent, but the second half easily eclipsed it in this respect. Prom the restart, Whittaker put in a good run and centre, repeating the performance a minute later. Nasb had been paying close attention to Whittaker, and these players got at loggerheads, and though Whittaker had not been previously cautioned, the referee or- dered both players off the field. With t cnm e II aside play continued fast, both sides striving hard for the lead. Fouls were frequent, the referee again having to caution some of the players. Play vrent from end to end, both sides missing chances, Stagg shooting over tho bar when he had a nice opening. Merthyr replifd, but the forward* play v.a.s disjoint- ed, Kelly finish in? a smart attack with a good shot, which Williams tipped over the bar. Llew- ellyn stopped a rush by the Mardy men, and the ellyn stopped a rush by the Mardy men, and the borne side continued to press. Mardy resorted to I the unsportsmanlike tactics of kicking out to waste time in hope of making jv draw, the spectators greet- ing the Mardy players with hoots. The locals had the best of scrambling play untif the end, but failed to penetrate the Mardy defence, and n poor game ended in a draw of one goal each. The replay was arranged for Thursday, at Mardy. Want of combination by the Mertbyr forwards was painfully evident throughout- the game. Whit- taker and Meh'in got in some fine centres, but it was rarely that there were forwards up to take ad- vantage of them. The ground was slippery, and would account to some extent for the poor display. The ball was very lively, and cut many unexpected capers with the players. The goal-keepers gave a good display, and both sets of backs were reliable. The Merthyr halves were the cleverer of the two. Latham" and Jacobs were the pick of the Marrl" front rank. McDonald alsojput in good work for his aids. —•

Aberdare and District Notes. rBy "Wandercr."l Aberdare journeyed to Milford Haven on Saturday, and succeeded in making a draw in the Welsh Cup competition. The ground was covered with snow, which affected the game. Both teams were at their strongest available strength. Jack Smith, Milford, and Sam Parker. Aberdare, being tho only absen- tees. Intense interest was taken in the match. Aberdare won the toss and were quickly away, hut the defence cleared, and Walters ran away. Mil- ford gained two abortive corners and had the best of matters for a time, Flavell twice shooting hard. Warr at one end and Toswell missed chances. After pressure of Aberdare Milford agaili became dangerous. St-ockwell passed to Gosling, who scored a fine goal. The game was finely contested. Flavell missed with a shot. Later Aberdare drew level, and the game ended in a draw of one all. The match was productive of excellent football in the snow and kept the spectators on tip-toe with ex- citement from kick-off to the final whistle. Aber- dare's football commanded admiration, and that is all the more praise to the home men; for they had to meet by far the best team they have met this season. Mr. Sandbrook, of Swansea, referecd smartly although some of his decisions raised the ire of the crowd, and a scene was imminent at one time. For- tunately, Hoggins, the home captain, intervened. Milford deserve praise for the splendid game they played, but it was readily confessed the visitors' football was superior. ..x.. Aberdare were well content and played a sporting game althrough unlike some prominent teams who have visited the Western port. Farringdon was rather peevish, but played a great game, whilst Tyler was the saviour. One save from Parrott was miraculous. Goodwin was grand. Cox, Tippett, Bradbury, and Bowell were the best of the others. Towy D. Jones was rather disappointing, and Tos- well lost chances. For Milford none did better than Sanderson, unless it was Ben Blockwell and Hoggins. Of the forwards young Waiters was splendid, also Flavell and Gosling and Parrott shone. -x- At the Park, on Saturday, a match was played be- tween the Aberaman Excelsiors and Aberdare Cres- cents. In the first half Davies netted twice for the Excelsiors, who won by two goals to nil. Pengam United played Llwycocd on the ground of the latter. The homesters were the superior side, and won by three goals to nil. The sforers were H. J. Davies. W. Jones, and D. T. John. Matches under the auspices of the Aberdare School- boys Football League took place at the Athletic Grounds on Saturday morning. The came between Cwmbach Council and Capcoch resulted in a win for the former by six goals to one. Palmer scored the sixth goal for Cwmbach, whilst Capcoch's solitary- goal was kicked by Blue.—The Aberaman School I team met and defeated Cwmbach National by four goals to one. The scorers were F. Hanley, J. Wat- kins, Hancock, and Edwards for Aberaman. and Parfit for Cwmbach. w Mountain Ash Rugby team entertained Pontardawe on Saturday, Interest in the match was increased by the fact that the Mount won a good game at Pontardawc by the narrowest possible margin. The ground in parts being hard and covered with snow, a mutual agreement was made to expunge the result from the records of the clubs. Ponardawe started play, and fine forward work by Brown, Ham, and Jerman eventually took play to the visiting 25, where the visiting full back—Rees, saved twice. A free against Benjamin for picking out of the scrum- mage gave the visitors a footing inside the home half, where Evans eave out a fine pass to Davies, who kicked diagonally into touch. Lewis then made a fine opening, and Evans scored a clever try for the visitors. No goal resulted. The homesters took up a strong attacking position, almost immediately. and Fryer getting through, flung well out to Flookes, who raced over. No goal resulted. Fast play characterised the opening stages of the second half, and Flooks's speed covered a mistake by Wyndham Jones when Pontardawe seemed cer- tain to score. Ainsworth got off, but stepped into touch. Hard scrummaging with no material ad- vantage to either side followed, but Benjamin out- pointed Evans and gave his side an attacking posi- tion. Evans, however, very trickily relieved to half- way Pontardawe pressed home the advantage, and a scrum under the home pests looked dangerous, but the home forwards relieved. Nothing further was scored, and the game terminated in a draw of three points each. ft The fourth consecutive match with a Rhondda Valley team was played by the Aberaman Thursdays last week, their opponents on this occasion Ton Pentre. The game started in deadly earnest, but the fast pace could not be maintained owinjr to the sticky condition of the ground. Pools of water and patches oi mud intervened throughout the length of the field and many chances of scoring on both sides were nullified on this account. D. E. Davies put in one shot which struck the cross-bar, while J. Williams also failed to score, the ball stop- ping dead in front of goal. Neither side had scored up to half-time. After the resumption play became very rough, several players on both sides being can- tioned bv the referee. Most of the pressing was done by "the homesters, who knew the eccentricities of the ground to perfection. In the last ten minutes disaster fell to the visitors. A scramble in front, of their goal led to a score by Ton Pentre's centvo- forward, who literally carried the ball in before him. Another attack by Ton enabled their full-back to put in a long shot, which again found the net. Aberamaji attacked, and appealed for a goal against Ton, owing to tho latter's custodian carrying the ball within the boundary line of the nef. Tho ap- peal did not succeed. The game ended in a win of two goals for Ton Pentre. The Church Lads' Brigade paid a visit to Moun- tain Ash on Saturday, and encountered the Moun- tain Ash Recreation team, the match beinsr under the auspices of the Aberdare and District League. The first half provided a real spectacular treat, the play being very even. First blood was drawn by the visitors, who were awarded a penalty kick. Phil Williams negotiated cleverly Ere half-time ar- rived the homesters eoualised through' a curling shot from the forward line. After lemons the strug- gle for supremacy became keener The Brigadiers were awarded a corner kick, which was taken by E. Cummings. His shot grazed the bar, and the Mount custodian's failure to clear led to a score. This put the homesters on their mettle, but the ^fensiva work of the Brigade was good. Five min- utes before time a scrambling rush by the Mountain Ash forwards enabled them to equalise. No fur- ther score occurred, and the game resulted in a .draw of two goals each. tfr # By mutual consent, the game between. Gilfaeh Reserves and Aberaman Wanderers was postponed on Saturdav unti! a. future date. Tho latter team still lead in Division III. of the Glamorgan League, having a record of fourteen wins out of fifteen matches played. At the Ynys Field, Cwmbach. the leaders in tho Aberdare League, viz., Hirwain, met the Cwmbach Crescents. The homesters won the toss, and the p-ame started in frosty weather before a good crowd. Hirwain started pre.5ing,and from a scramble on their opponents' goal-line, they scored. It was now Cwmbach's turn to press, and several corner kicks were forced, but they did not prove fruitful. From a rush later Rowland Davies scored for Cwmbach. The Ilirwainifes again set the pace going after lemon-time, but fine defensive play was shown by Cwmbach. The latter's forwards also initiated a series of rushes, but they handled the ball on the visitors' goal line. This mistake cost them the match, for soon after Hirwain made an irresistible rush. Their first shot was saved by the Cwmbach goalie but from the rebound Hirwain scored. .}:- On Monday afternoon, the Cwmbach Crescents were engaged in another encounter under the aus- pices of the Aberdare and District League. Their opponents on this occasion were the Aberaman Wanderers, the venue being Michael's Field. A bitterly cold wind prevailed, which was uncom- fortable for players and spectators alike. In the opening stages a penalty kick for the Wanderers proved futile. Later three goals were scored by the- Wanderers' forwards. Geo. Key toed the ball twice into the net, and Vater once. Cwmbach retaliated I with a solitary goal, as the result of a finely placed free kick by T. Rieharas. The second moiety prov- ed verv exciting. Welsford just failed to increase the Wanderers' lead through a clever move on his part. D. Morris nnd Tom Meredith combined well for CwmMch, and the former scored a second goal for his side. The play was unusually keen from now to the end. but no further scoring took place, and tho Wanderers won by three goals to two. I
