BANGOR v. CHIRK. A MUCH NEEDED WIN FOR THE CITIZENS. (By "Recorder."I Undoer greatly improved weather conditions, but on a muddy field, Bangor and Chirk turned out on Satarday in a Combination fixture. Mr Brown Jones, c4 Rhyl, officiated as referee. It was noticeable that the Bangor committee tried three recruits. The teams were as follows:— Bangor: Walter Parry; Bob. Roberts (capt.), and W. Evans; John Arridgo, Attenboro', and D. T. Davies; Bradshaw, E. Jones, Alfy. Tho- mas, Mathews, and Oliver. Chirk: E. Harris; Mason and W. Williams; T. Harris, A. Davies, and R. Mortis; Piexoe, Wynne, E. Roberts, Boycott, and E. Jones. Scarcely had the e.pheire been set in position than the home forwards were in the Chirk gcal- mouth, and a penalty was awarded against Wil- liams for fouling Bradsha-w. The latter taking tho kick, made no mistake For a time Chirk assumed the aggressive, and the home backs had a. trying time of it, and an unfortunate incident happened, for in attempting to stop a rush Bcb Rolbelrt.a sustained a serious wrench to hie leg and had to Che field. The Bangor right wing got away, Edgar Jones showed good form and centred nicely, but the VIsItOrs were goon back in the home territory,and the oaptain(to the ringing applause of the crowd) came on the field again just in time to stop a well concerted move- ment on the part of the Chirk forwards. Brod- shaw receiving the leather, worked it down to the extreme right; and screwed in, but the shot was a bit too high to be dangeroum Chirk again attacked, and the outside left receiving the leather in a good position looked extremely dangerotis, but Bob spoiled him, conceding a corner however. After mid-field play the visit- ing right wing got away, but the home defence were too good. Edgar Jones worked down, and though Bradshaw failed to screw in, Arridge sent in a clinking shot; which was followed by attempte by Jones and Bradshaw, A SOUND DEFENCE. but the Chirk defence was sound. Attenboro' obtaining possession parted to Oliver, who cen- tred, and Jones sent in a beauty, but the book 'cleared. Bangor at this stage were simply "all over" their opponents. At last, however, the Twitors' left got away, onl^ to oome to grief, being robbed by D. T. Davies. The attack be- inig resumed, however, Parry was tested; and Drought off a splendid save, but E. Jones, the visitors ouiteide left,caught the ball when in a good position to shoot, but sent wide. Bangor .evid- ently were becoming tired of being bombarded, and breaking away with a determined rush penned in the visitors, who kicked wildly-any- torheire, to save the situation. Shortly afterwards in attempting to stop an attack, Bob Roberts' injured knee gave way at a critical moment, and Ike waa obliged to leave the field again. A dhot that deserved better luck was sent in by MathewB from a pass by Alfy. Thomas, but the visitom, custodian was in form. Chirk ran back, and a •tinging shot just went over the oroesbar—ex- tremely hard luck. Displaying excellent com- bination the visitors for a time had the best of file argument, but were unable to pierce the •turdy home defence. Oliver performed a solo run, but Mason kick- ed out. From the throw in a. hard tussle fol- lowed in goalmouth, Edgar Jones, Bradshaw, and Mathews, all striving like Trojans to la.nd the leather in the net, but the luck was against tiberca, and the whistle sounded for coffee. Half-time: Bangor 1, Chirk 0. On the resumption of play Chirk showed great cfe*erniinatio<n, and pressed hotly, but failed ig- nobly in shooting. Bangor assumed the aggxee- •ive, and Mathews was conspicuous, but Pierce .far tihe visitors returned and tested with a SOLO RUN BY OLIVER. Stinger, but Parry was successful in enabling Oliver to get away. After a run the whole length e latter sent in and missed the billet only by jrabee. Again after superb combination the bomeeterB got within range, and Bradshaw sent in a daisy cutter, Harris, however, again saved WeU- Then followed an exciting attack <>n the '—goal, and CJhirk looked extremely danger- ous, but Arridge saved the situation. The visi- tors continued to press, however, and Parry was agam called upon to clear. Bradshaw was next Conspicuous In front of Harris' charge, and the Oostodian kicked amongst the chimney pots. A doubtful penalty was awarded the htxme^bere a tew minutes kter.andBradshaw converted. Chirk »ow attacked with determination, but the home Tfe2ilfolln<i' W.

But it was apparent thatChirk intended dying game for displaying ex cellent combination they advanced, andParry was tested by a splendid shot, saving only to be again bombarded from tihe left wing. He proved in- vulnerable, however. Oliver and Mathews breaking away, the latter rihot wide. Chirk out- side left spoilt a fine movement by getting off- side, but Pierce worked down, amd tried a pot. A splendid shot by Attenbcxo' just failed to do the trick, as the whistle went for time. Final: Bangor 3, Chirk 0.

RHYL v. TRANMERE~ROVERS. EXTRAORDINARY GAME. These teams met in the Combination at Rhyl on Saturday, and a game of a most extraordinary chara,et,er was seen. The weather was bitterly cold. Rhyl bad very hard lack, and the forwards did not seem to be able to find the goal. They bombarded the visitors' end the major portion of the time, but all to no avail. They secured plenty of lorner. but could not put the ball through. The visitors' goalkeeper had a fine way of catching the ball, and when hard pressed one of the backs helped him between the upright. On the other hand the Rhyl custodian seemed to have a mania fo" running out, with the result that three goals in this way ware scored against. his Hde, while the fourth was also a very easy one, getting in just inside the net. Buck scored twice FIshwick and Butler one each. Tranmere won by their fine defence, all their goals being easy, and thfc Rhyl Committee will hATe to change their goalkeeper if they hope to have different results to that of Saturday.

HOLYHEAD v. BEAUMARIS. THE LEADERS BEATEN AT LAST. (By "Cybi") This fixture, which tock place at the Oval on Saturday, \?&a undoubtedly the most important of tho season, the interest evinced in the meeting of tho Anglesey lads being Amply exemplified by the record number of spectators who lined the ropes. Tha fact that Beaumaris, Miice their ad- vent this season into the League, possess an un- beaten record, and that Ilclyhead were last year's champions, and still held strong hopes of being able to uphold their reputation, gave the meet- ing an aspect of "an encounter of the giants." The weather was glorious, but the ground rathsr slippery. the result of the recent heavy rains. At the last moment the committee de- cided not to experiment with D. W. Jones, who, ai far as Holyhead is concerned, is yet untried, although he arrivod here from Liverpool with a strong recommendation. O. B. Edwards, after some persuasion, filled the vacant position. Promptly at 2.45 p.m. Mr Beech, who acted aa referee, linod tho teams as follows:— Holynead:—Goal, W Collier; full backs, T. Conl-in and W. Parry; half-backs, W. Taylor, W. T. Jones, and R Ellis; forwards, H. Roberts, O. B. Edwards, J. Rowlands, R. C. Jones, and H. Brown. Beaumaris:—Goal, 0. R. Jones; full backs, G. Davids and G. Edwards; half-backs, W. Row- lands. 0. Oweo., and D. Rowlands; forwards, E. Bellwood, R. Humphreys, 0. Humphreys, W. M. Jones. ar.d S. Poole. Holyhead having won the toss placed their op- ponents to face the sun. The opening exchanges were confined to midfield, until Beaumaris com- mitted an infringement of the rules, and Ellis shot right into Jones's arms. The goalee having kioked the leather up the field, Taylor headed it back, but the Beaumaris left wing secured and raided the home territory, but the offensive move was again nippod in tilo bud by Taylor, who punted the sphere to H. Roberts, who, in turn, centred to Rowlands, and a melee ensued in front of O. R. At last the bail rolled in the direction of Parry, who took a long shot at goal, missing by inches. From the goal kick H. Roberts, fed by Edwards, dashed down the right, but when in a splendid position Hughie handled. Davies having sent the sphere soaring up the field. W. M. Jones dribbled further up, and parted to Poole, who tested Collier. Conlan, with a lofty kick, relieved the pressure. Brown making ground along the left crashed against Davies, the ball in the meantime rolling out of play. The Beaumaris forwards then advanced in line, and by fine combination brought the leather within dangerous proximity of the home goal, but through the united efforts of Taylor and Conlan the pressure was relieved. From a throw in the visitors' territory Rowlands fed Brown, who sent in rather a slow shot from the left, O. R. easily clearing. The Reds' right wing dashing up with great spocd was thwarted by Conlan, who passed to O. B., who, in turn, fed Brown, and this player forced a corner off Davies. Brown cen tred, and Owen headed the leather up the field, and Ellis returned it with an accurate shot. In clearing O. R. fell, with the ball just in front of A CURIOUS ATTEMPT AT GOAL-GETTING. liia head, Rowlands dashed up and attempted to net it, but Jones secured it underneath his body, Rowlands even trying to push it over the line with his hands amid laughter. It was undoubted ly a narrow escape, as the goalee was quite un- supported. A weak dash by the Beaumaris right wing was easily pulled up by W. T., who passed to 0. S., the latter testing Jones with a scorcher, the goalkeeper having to concede a corner. Ro- berts oentred accurately. Ellis shooting over the crossbar. A foul against Holyhead in olose proxi- mity of the penalty line was taken by Edwards, but Conlan headed the leather out of danger. A dangerous move by Brown was met by Da- vies kioking out of play. H Roberts was next in evid^tace, giving 0. R. a handful, followed by BEAUMAItIS AT LAST GET THEIR PLUMES CLIPPED. a beauty from O. B. In a few seconds Rowlands experienced hard lines with a. header. A fine dash by Brown culminated in a beautiful oentre to Rowlands, who dashed up to the goal mouth, but failed to more than touch the ball. O. B. was then respon6ible for some fine play on the right, utterly defeating a oloud of backs who hovered round him. He parted to R. C. Jones, who sent in a shot which gave Jones no earthly chanoe. The shout that met this success was deafo ling, the pent up feelings of ttie Jaree crowd being allowed at last to escape in a way that was absolutely startling. After some exchanges in midfield 0. Humphreys threaded his way through the home defence, and sent in a beauty, but Collier, who was in better form than the previous Saturday, kept his charge intact. Parry, from midfield, sent in a shot which appeared oer. tain of its intended destination, but Jones jumped up and tilted it over the crossbar, conceding a corner. Roberts cent in a fine centre, Parr^r realising with a shot of tremendous power, whicn crashed into the net like a rocket. This feat met with the hearty approval of the spectators, who yelled with glee. Parry a^ain tested Jones wi+h a long shot. The goalee kicked out, and O. Humphreys gaining possession commenced a fine solo run, but ra- reived the attentions of Taylor, who successfully tackled him. Holyhead then pireesed, Beau- maris having an anxious five minutes. O. Hum- phreys at last emerged from the orowd and dashed up fi&Id with great speed, and in tackling him W. T. committed a foul. The ensuing free kick removed toe play to the home left corner, Ellis eventually clearing. Holyhead again fouled within five yards of the penalty line, but Da- vies. who lad charge of the free kick, bent the leather behmd. A foul against Beaumaris re- suited in an>th v marvellous long shot by Parry, O. Humphreys dashing up the field in great style collided against Conlan, with the result that he collided against Conlan, with the result that he came a heavy cropper. He got up after a short interval, and resumed play. The visitors' left wing wre next in evidence, but Taylor inter- fered, and passed to Roberts, who, in turn, cen- tred to Rowlands, the latter sending the sphere behind. W. O. Humphreys, well supported by his brother, worked up the centre, a melee in front of the Harbour goal resulting. Parry re- lieving with a skier, and H. Roberts dashed down the right, parting to Rowlands, who, although having no jiio in front of him but the goaiee, sent the sphere yards wide, amid a gasp of dis- appointment. O. B. finished off a fine run with a magnificent shot, which was successfully negotia- ted by Jones, who, in a few seconds, was called to save a. difficult shot from R. C. Jones. A 2-0 LEAD. At half-time Holyhead led by two goals to none. On resuming pla.y O. B. threaded his way along the right, but G. Edwards intervened, from midneld W. T. passed to Rowlands, who parted to Brown, who fell a prey to the attentions of Daviea O. Humphreys securing the leather dashed down the ce.ntre, Parry being forced to kick out to clear. O. B. receiving the ensuing throw, dashed up the field with great speed. A melee in front of the visitors' goal resulted, Ed. wards relieving the strain. W. M. Jones com- menced a movement, which ended in & scrimmage in front of Collier. The strain was ultimately re- lieved by Taylor, Roberts working up from mid- field centred to R. C. Jones, who shot weakly. A fine solo run by 0. B. ended in a foul against the visitors within the penalty area. Conlan, who was entrusted with the kick, had to wait until the visitors' right full back bad finished an ani- mated conversation with the gcalee, who after all, failed to stop the ten ton shot sent in by the burly Conlan. This goal gave the homesters & fine lead, but shortly after this success the visitors pressed with persistence, until at last W. M. Jones cored the only point notched by the visitors. I From this period to the end of the game Holyhead pressed hard, most of the members of the team testing Jones, who was in grand form, and kept his charge intact.. The game ended as follows: Holyhead 3, Beaumaris 1.

LLANRWST v. BANGOR. AN EVENLY-CONTESTED GAME. These old rivals met on Gwydr Park, Llan- rwat, on Saturday, in splendid football weather, and before a fairly large crowd of spectators. Mr A. C. Slater was in charge of the teams, which were composed of the following:— Llanrwst: Goal, Finchett; backs, W. Owen and W. Trevor Jones; half-backs, Gren. Jones, Bob Hughee and Geo. Chisholm; forwards, Norman Jones, K. Elias. Dei Thomas, Arthur Richards, and Ned Griffiths. Bangor: Goal, H. R. Williams; backs, Hwfa Williams and T. A. Griffiths; half-backs, Llew. Pritchard, H. J. Davies and W. Jones; forwards, Hughie Owen. Joe Williams, Dick Jones, H. Davies, and T. J. Evans. The homesters won the spin of the coin, and defended the Gwydr Castle goal. Dick Jones put the ball in motion, and with his men made an attack, but were easily repulsed, only to re- turn to the fray, and Davies was declared to be off-side. This relieved the pressure, and the Roosters got going. Arthur Richard sent a love- ly overhead pass to Norman Jones, but the latter was late on the ball, and his shot at goal proved weak. From the free-kick the city men got dangerous. W. Owen missed his kick, and Dick Jones had no difficulty in finding the net after about ten mi-nutew play. From the centre a smart bit of work was done by the home for- wards. Arthur Richards was making tracks for the visitors' citadel, but when in a good position he was fouled in the area by Hwfa. Despite the blowing of the whistle, Arthur went on, and cleverly put the ball out of the reach of the Bangor custodian. Having the choice of giving, a penalty, or allowing the goal, Mr Slater very properly did the latter, thus bringing the teams on an equal footing again. Play now became ex- citing, and both seta of defence were severely tested. Hwfa was playing a magnificent back game for the visitors, and but for him undoubted- ly the Llanrwst left wingers would have done considerable damage. The homesters continued to press for a few minutes, but Hwfa landed the ball well up the field. Dick Jones, who received the ball, was in an offside position, and was penalised. From the free kick Dei Thomas worked the ball well down, and sent in a ground shot along the goalmouth, but his comrades were too late to convert it. The Bangorians were playing a hard game, and the home defence was severely tested, but Trevor was equal to the occasion; in fact, wherever the ball was Trevor was not far away. To save his side, however, he had to concede, a corner, which luckily proved fruitless. The goal kick,was conveniently placed for the homesters' right wing, who rushed down the field, and Norman put in a jnagnificent centre. Arthur Riohards ran up, but was too late. However, Ned Griffiths nipped in, and tested the goalkeeper with a strong shot. A scrimmage ensued in the goalmouth. Hwfa partly relieved. Bob Hughes afterwards rushing up. and kicking wildly over the bar. Both ends were visited in turn, but neither side could break through the defence. Half-time arrived with the scores standing at one goal each. On the re-start the city men were the ag- gressors, and before a minute or two had passed, the veteran leader of the visitors shot at goal, {ust skimming the crossbar, and in a few minutes ie had another try. but Finchett just managed to tip it over the Dar. A fruitless corner re suited. The homesters took up the running, and gave an exhibition of fine football. They pressed hard, and ultimately forced a oorner off Hwfa. This was taken by Ned Griffiths, and looked for all the worrld going into the net, when the cus- todian nipped in, and another comer resulted. The second. was similarly plaoed by Griffiths, but H. R. Williams made a more effective clearance on this occasion. The Bangor left wing were doing as they liked with W. Owen, who was com- pletely out of his usual form, and some of his miskicks might easily have let in the visitors, only for the fact that Trevor kept a close eye on the doings of his partner. Running well up the field; Aithur RicharSs was checked by Hwfa, but he managed to swing around, and put m a shot at goal, whioh was deservedly applauded by the spectators. He repeated this performance a little later with an overhead kick, which dropped near the orossbar, and the oustodian was very lucky in getting it away. Arthur was in ex- cellent form, and with Ned Griffiths as a partner proved very dangerous. Hwfa kept a close we on both, but once_ he was caught napping. Arthur pretended to kiok at the ball, but let it roll to Ned Griffiths. This somewhat deceived Bangors back, and Griffiths with a ground shot; hit the upright, and the bail rolled into the net; This success wai loudly oheered. and the game during the last quarter of an hour became very exciting. Both ends were visited in turn, and just on time the home team was let down by Fin- chett, who made no attempt to stop a ball bounc- ing high into the net. It appeared as if thera was a misunderstanding between him and Trevor but the latter was keeping the man off in order that Finchett might olear. The teams were again on equal terms, and during a dangerous attack by the Roosters the whistle brought thq game to a close, two goals being registered by each side.

CARNARVON v. CONWAY. Thda match should have been played at Car- narvon on Saturday, but Conway could not miUBiter a team, and the match was postponed, The failure of the visitors to turn up caused same confusion at Carnarvon.

Rydal attaokjed, and be-fore long Lancaster opened the visitors' score. However, T. J. Griffiths and Hughes, on the left, combined splendidly, and the visiting halves and' backs had their work cutout to keep them at bay. In epite of the spirited dfefence of the visitors, T. J. Griffiths opened the homesters' account- Rydal preased severe- 1y, but Friars increased their score to two through Cooil, who had only the custodian to beat- Lancaster and Wood combined well on the left, gave the home defence much trouble.

LLANDUDNO RESERVES v. CONWAY JUNIORS. On Saturday, Llandudho Reserves visited Con- way to play a friendly fixture with the Juniors on the Morfa. As the Conway first eleven did not visit Carnarvon, the Juniors were strength- eood by the inclusion of one or two of their players. The Llandudno Reserves were also a fairly representative team. CJheetham made a. good pivot, and Davies, Johnson, and Cassidy formed: a safe defence. The Juniors were the stronger, however, and they ajxtplj revenged the defeat sustained by the "Bluoes" at the hands of the Amateurs. Throughout the game it wao evident that the homeBtexia were the better and stronger team, although the Reserves now and again gave a. plucky exhibition. At half-time the score was 3—& in favour of the Conway Juniom In the second half the visitors had even less of the game than in the first, and five times the homeeterg found the net before time. Final score: Conway J unions, 8; Llandudno Reserves, 0.

GLASINFRYN v. BANGOR AMATEURS. The Amateurs^ after their ten goals to nil de- feat at Llangefni the previous week, on Saturday journeyed to Glasinfryn to play the villagers. In the first portion of the game the visitors were the superior side, but after the interval the vil- lagers had matters pretty much their own way, and when time was called the result waa: Glasin- fryn 5 goals, Bangor Amateurs 3 goals..

NOTES AND COMMENTS. (By "Criticuo."), BANGOR. Another experimental team did service for Bangor cm Saturday in the Combination match against Chirk. Two oodlege players, Atten- boir-oug,h (Normal) and Matthews ('Varsity) were drafted into the team, Alf. Thomas was shifted from the half back line to the centre-forward position, and? Walter Parry (Coinway) was given ■a trial in goat A truly heterogeneous lot. < < Whilst it was fast enough there was not3aing particularly brilliant about the game, wlhion tho homesiters practically monopolised from the kiok-off to the final whistle. The Chirk men appeared greatly cut up about the decision of the reiTepeei, which enabled Bangor to secure their second penalty and goal. » • They appeared reluctant in alilowing the kiok to be taken, and several of them had an ani- mated conversation with the referee, who, lio,wever, was adamant. After thfe the Chirk- ites fell to pieces, and it wag marvellous how they escaped with on/ly three goals to their dis- credit. « Fully threo parts of the Bangor had only ten men. Bob Roberts having to retire owing to an injured knee- < » fPhe fEfW fshota, and they were indeed few, that Waiter Panry had to negotiate he did1 so very smartly, and he was a great improvement on the halting player who has figured between the sticks at recent matches. Will. Evarus was hare, there, and everywhere, and until winged Bob Roberts was in tip-tap form. # » n I was glad to see Jack Arridge back again in the tea in, and notwithstanding his temporary absence from the sward Jack still knew how to alain the ball into the goal. Of the halves "D.T." was the star performer, and every match sees an improvement in his play. » » Attenborough fulELjr deserved hjs plaoe in the team, his kicking being dean ana accurate. A, Thomas wa £ not a brilliant success in the posi- tion of centre forward. » Oliver and MatthiewB madie a good wing, the ouiteidle flyer continually out-runndg thie Chirk defenders- Bradfehaw had the distinction of scoring the three goals, and he played his beet game thiB season. Edgar Lloyd Jones, a new player, put in a few deft touches, and with a ftunther acquaintance with the Combination team he ehouild turn jut a^uaefull player. The following" have been selected to play for the Bangor Red Stars against Friars School on SatuTxiky cm the Friars ground:—H. R> Wil- liams (cap.), goal; J. W. Rudd, G. B, Hanriss,. backs; B. L. Williams, R. E. Jones, H. Ro- berta, half-backs; W. J, Roberts, Phil. Burns, M. Owen, A. Griffiths, Harry Evans. it VALE OF CONWAY. The game on Saturday between Llanrwst and Bangor was very interesting from beginning to end, and the result of two goals each was a fair criterion of the match, although the Roosters had: a. little more of the game. It waa not devoid of numerous fouls, whioh were smartly pulled up by Mr Slater, who has the eye of an eagle. By far the best player on the field was Arthur Richards, who was in tip top form, and I would: be surprised if the committee of the Llanrwst, club should entertain the idea of dropping him from the eleven. He is a clever forward, and it does not matter in what position he is his shot is' always dangerous. He is following in the foot- steps of his brother, Robert David Riohards, who, I am sorry to report, is at home suffering from an injury to the knee, sustained whilst playing in Southern League fixture. May he have a speedy recovery. « « • For Llanrwst, Finohett during the greater por- tion of the game played well, and he cannot be blamed entirely for the second Bangor goal, for there was undoubtedly a misunderstanding be- tween the baok and himself. Trevor Jones waa in hia best form, and but for him the Roosters would have been in a sorry plight. His ptCrtno4 W. Owen, was not a auooeei on Saturday, The half-back line played a hard game through- out, and although Grenviile Jones is a fine tackier, he is too fond of missing his kick. Bob Hughes plays too wildly, and with a little judg- ment he will make a fine centre-half. Captain Chisholm played a clean game throughout, and worked well for his side. In the forward line, Arthur Richards, &s I have stated, was far away the best.. Norman Jones and K. Elias were not in their usual form. I have seen both giving a better exhibition than they did on Saturday. The halves were also at fault for not feeding them oftener. Dei Thomas, at oentre, was dangerous at times, and Ned Grif- fiths, on the extreme left, played his usual good game. On the whole, the team bucked up well. < « The pick of the Bangor eleven was Hwfa, whose clean kicking was much appreciated even by many of his opponents. Ho is apt to kick wildly at times, but as a full-back I have not seen one on trwydr Park to beat him yet- H. R. Williams, in goal, and Griffiths, at back, played a fine de- fensive game also, but Williams had no earthly ohance of stopping the two goals scored against him. I I The half-back line were given plenty of work, and they came out well. The pivot of the front line was in rare form, and passed to his men beautifully7 but neither of his wing men, with the exception of the inside left, were in anything like form, although they severely tested Finchett on two or three oocasiono. Next Saturday the Roosters are at home in a League tourney with Blaenau Festiniog, who a fortnight ago were beaten by six goals to one on Gwydr Park in a friendly. Let's hope that the performance will be repeated. » LLANDUDNO AND CONWAY. A glimpse at the prospect for Saturday's foot- ball might prove interesting to the supporters of the two above-mentioned clubs. This season, the Conway eleven have done very badly. They are the wooden apoonists in the League, and have failed to secure a single point. The five League matches they have played they have lost, anv their goal average is 10 for and 26 again t. -5r In their cup-ties they have been equally unfor- tunate. They managed to draw with Colwyn Ba.y at Conway, but when they visited the Bay they were decisively defeated. In their cup-tie with the Amateurs, they met with a 4-1 repulse. Truly, such a state of affairs it du'tine! ly discouraging to the club. They are not really a poor team, as could easily be seen in the cup-tie with Llandudno, ard I beiieve that their wretched record is due more to their mit- fortune than their fault. They want a reliable man between the sticks. I hear they have secured the services of Coverl&y, Penmacnmawr, in that capacity. Tom Jones anq O. Ellis are all right, and no fault can be found with their defensive tactics. Shem Jones and W. J. Jones mako good halves, but Breeze waa rathir slow. » In tha wings, however the real weakness it to bj found, an-i such an excellent pivot as Ather. ten ie quite wasted, unless he has two good wings to support him, On Saturday the "Blues" encounter their old rivals in cup and League, Colwyn Bey, in ft League fixture. Tohe match means a good deal to the club. If they can manag J to win, they will then tie with the Llandudno Amateurs, provided the Amateurt do not gain a couple of points on Saturday. < < w < Tha Amateurs, on the other hand, have not fared much better than the "Blues." Out of th. four matches they have played, they can claim only one victory, and that was obtained at Con- way. In their cup-tie?, however, they have been more fortunate. They have safely emerged from the first round in the Welsh Amateur Cup, ana although beaten at Colwyn Bay on Saturday ia the second round for the Coast Amateur Cuft- • they still entertain hopes for the junior.
