NOTES. An ideal day, but a poor crowd. Rhyl used to draw well in days gone by, but of late the tale has been somewhat different. -in their ranks was W. H. Jones, of Bangor, who d.d service for the City crew some years ago. Jack Jones took up his usual position at left full full back, and the hnmp set looked oomplete. In the opening &ccn<; Evans was in prominence, but V> ■ H. Jones prevailed on one or two occa- sions. Evans soon measured his opponent and eventually got in a beauty wh ell Hughes saved in style. Rhyl, although young-looking fellows, made several promising rushiw, and Ted was lucky on one occasion to save. Both ends were visited in turn, and Hughos had a deal to contend with. Ol.ver and Hughie Davies initiated the first telling movement, and when tho latter was about to part Burton paid him too much attention in the penalty area. Dargie was given tho shot, and the leather le Wa" passed Hughes at express speed. The Scribes were in doubt as to the identity of tue penalised player, and polit.'ly asked one of tho Rhyl players if he knew the name, but lie plar(-d to b?,- at )ca. ,.pI An effort was made to ascertain the name from one of the forwards, but he was also at sea as to tlie identity of his colleagues. T. "a'Ok-se the Sci-'bcts' d't!icu!ty the Iiiii,5?ian d'dn't tlll?K I. 1 kst of players supp]IC-(l Inp.des&ly wrong. i ii,, visitors were an "unknown quantity" to earh'offici-. A gentleman on the stand, how- ever, supplied the deficiency. To business. Hughie Dav;es registered the second, and Dargie brought up the totaf to three before breathing time. Rbyl made capital efforts to break through, but lacked sting. The imt ai hrUf was certainly not exciting, and some of the players appeared to be suffering from "too much pudding. Tho second Jwiii ofx3jued more promisingly, and tho teams appeairod to be more ev<?n]y matched. Both teams, particularly the forwards, did what was expected of them, but there wa. no tangible result for aevoral miimtes. Oliver was the fiiut to bre.ik tiie ice, aaid rlio point be notched was judiciously placed from a difficult position. Dargie waa the next hero, and the fifth goal formed his third success.

Tiie "lcin of hustlers" was ag-aln on tho war- path, and the sixth waa one of tho bEe-well done, Dargie. That other little ehap followed in his wake, and "w# are seven" went up. It was really Oliver s point, but it wag Davies who put on the finishing touch.

r POINTS FOR RHYL. RHyl 2 Denbigh O 011 Monday Rhyl had a vis-it from Denb'gh, and were able ;,0 -secure two points. The attend- ance wai, not as large as the oommit;toc had ex- p:cLkA, but the di.p:ay made by the looal team waa a ,,Z2e-cperier to many, rotw.,?thsLuncL,ng tli, fa,,t aiwr -the heavy gayyia of pre,.I()Ui 9-ur,d*y th. Ph-,i ?. liat tired. In thc- first -iaif Rh,t -it •fan surpriaing that they failed to penetrate, but; the de-lon-ce put on by the vs.tors was very fine, ifltc goalkeepinj| of T. Griffiths in particular call- ing for comment. About fifteen minutes from the start N. flitchn.rd placed a capita 1 oorncr, and the ball was headed into the cot by Gallag- her. Denbigh managed to broak away after this, but were quickiy pulk-d up. and in a very i;itort time N. Pritchard again placed a fino cautre, and Harrison added a second goal for Rhyl. In tito ;c*d halt the home team again had aaost fif the play, and although th:-y bombarded the visitors' goal they were unable to break throu,h, I the game end zkg in a win for Rhyl by two goals 1 to niL On the play Rhyl should have had a viotory 1 of five or six goals, and the small soore is ao- oounted for by th; brilliant defence of Griffiths, who saved shot after yhot. He had no chance with the two goals scored. Of the Rhyl team Hornby, Burton, and N. Pritchard showed up the best and were responsible for plenty of good work. On th; Denbigh side Randies, Thomas, werk, th best oiits'de the goal- and P I I keeper. The two backs (J. Dickens and P. Evans) also played a nice game and cleared some good shots. The only corner Denbigh managed to secure was when they crossed the line onoo in the second half. I Spectators should take warning from the com- ments made by the referee (Mr Yates, Chester), who had to complain of their crowding around the net inside the lines.

Festiniog oontmued to preas, Kmneir distin- guishing himself with an accurate long pot for goal, which was repulsed.

CHESTER AND DISTRICT LboGUE. DIVISION I. A POOR GAFtlE AT DENBIGH. Denbigh Church Guild 2 Creenfisld O These teams met at Denbigh on Saturday, be- fore a very psor attendance of spectators. Both sides were w ,-)l represented, the Guild introducing for the first timo a former Greenfield player, Joel Bennett, who i tho satisfaction of scoring the two goals whicii gave the Guild the victory. Mr Hodgc, of Che. t r, was the referee. Greenfield, p ay.ng down the slop:1, early loomed largely, but Hayward was in one of his best moods in the Denbigh goal. and saved some good shots in fine style. The play of both teams was of a ragged d cr.pt on. Now and again, however, sornJ pe, runs were made by the Greenfield forwards, wiio worked th o-ighout in more harmony than the homesters. Macnamara was conspicuous at centre forward for the Green- field team, and he led several attacks in a fasluon which bodrxl ill for Denbigh, but Parry Evans was a tower of strength at full back, and frus- trated the vis-tors' efforts time aft-or time. Mid- way through the first half L. Lewis broke through for the Cu.U, and was palpably tripped when about to shoot. The referee, however, did not see the offence, but the Guild soon got a goal, Bennett working through on his own and beat- ing the goalkeeper neatly. Greenfield played vigorous jootbait after th.s, and put strong pres- sure on Hayward's charge. The attack ended when Macnamara, apparently offside, netted, and the free kick gave the Guild a chance of getting the ball out of the goalmouth. liennett netted for the Guild, but the whistle had previously gone for offside. About eight ramute3 from time Goodwin, one of the home full backs, was car- ried off with a twisted knee. In his absence Greenfield maelo desperate attempts to get the equaliser, but failed. In the second half this Guild, with the slope in their favour, gave a bitter display, but were handicapped by Goodwin's incapacity. The visi- tors were al-10 playing under a disadvantage, Macnamara sustaining a painful twist of the knee. Petrie woikid hard, anel made up for this deficiency, however. The Guild were clearly out for a win, and Bennett scored their second goal. Play after this was fairly fast, and the tricky footwork of George Petrie was the source of ad- miration. Evans, however, was clearly his mas- ter, otherwise it would have been a sorry day for the Guild. Before time was called Macna- mara left the field, and nothing ()Ii any importance happened in the closing stag.s.

WELSH SENIOR CUP. SECOND ROUND: RE-PLAYED TIE. BEATEN AT LAST. "CANARIES" COME TO GRIEF AT LLAN- DUDNO. (By "Salopian.") Llandudno Amateurs 5 Carnarvon 2 The above tean-u met on YvTednesday on the Council Field, Llandudno, to. dc,d,- who shall oppose Bangar 011 the lattcr's ground in the third round of the Senior Cup. A very large ItUendance was anticipated, as great interest was shown by supporters of both teams. Several hundreds travelled from the county town wear- ing green emblems, th's being the colour of their pets. Th:s was the third meeting of the clubs to decide the ic-suo, and again Mr Richards, of Bangor, wats the rOiorce, and as on former occas-on; gave general satisfaction. The visitors had the assist, nee of Don Rowlands and C. H. Jonos, of the 'Varsity. Mr Richards lined up the players as follows:— LLANDUDNO: C. Staliard; Ben Morris and J. H. Jones; J. Brown, T. Johnson. and W. Ed- wards; J. E. Williams, Dan Davics, W. T. Cleovc, R. Davies, and J-m Williams. CARNARVON: G. H. Jones; Evan Hughos and C. H. Jones; Don Rowlands, E. Jones, and Jack Williams; R. H. Roberts, Tom Roberts, Walter J'onej, H. Roberts, and J. Jones. The 'Chers commenced facing the sun and a brisk wir.d, but set about their work in excellent style, and R. Daviess was soon to the fore, wend- ing his way through the opposition, but he fin- ished very weakly and placed the bail wide of the net. The home halves were playing a smash- ing game and placed the right wing in posses- sion. J. E. Williams rece.ved from has partner and darted away, hotly pursued by Jack Wil- liams. "J. E." got tn hia drive, however, which was well saved by G. H. Jones. The fleet wrnger came again, and this timo C. H. Jcncs conceded a oorner. The flag kick was a model of accuracy, but after a brief struggle the defence prevailed, and the Carr.-arvon men went away with a burst, and for a sbort time made matters hot for the "Cormorants." At length R. H. Roberts obtained the leather, anj after some tricky work in which he baffled the home defen- ders he centred acrosi the go-A mouth, when J. Jones dashed in and DEFEATED STALLARD amidst frantic cheering. Jack Brown was next conspicuous for some sterling work, but nothing tangiblo accrued. An untoward incident now occured, the genial "ref." being unfortunately struck in the faoa during a melcc and placed liore-de-combat for reveral miiutes. Sympa- thetic cheers announced his recovery. Torn Ro- be it 1 was dung rous, but fell at the critical mo- ment. Tho home goal hal a very narrow escape indeed. The 7Chers now asserted themselves and the halves got their forwards in motion. The "Black and Whites" were several times within an no of equeHsing, fnd it would have beon no more than their due had they done. 53. Jim Williams was the vlcti'iii of a brace of fouls, amd' the ensuing Inso-kiolrs were accurately placed by J. H. Jones, but R. Davies jhcad-"d just o.er the bar o:i, euo'h oooasion. The horao- sters were straining every s.new hereabouts but tiho equa.'oi:or would1 not came. Jack Williams was penalised for <1 foul on J. Brown and JU-ri Morris transferred to J- E- Williams. The vl«it- in-g custodian ran out of his goal as "J.E." drove for iihe not. The leather struck Jones and rebounded more by good luck tihan good mana.gemeait, but to give the goalie his due, lie kept a gra.nd' goal. The ?'ClK-r5" were having cruel luck and rained in a sucec-taskm of shots butt nothing ooomed. The Carnarvon men wore pcuaned in their own quarters at tlhia stage, but at length J. Jones and II. Roberts broke away on their left wing. R. 11. Roberts was next to the fore but sCiot miserably, after same tricky inainOe-uvoriiig. The homesters than bufst away and in f ull ory for goal when Clee ve was pud led up for hands. The free-kick which followed proved disastrous to the Aimstours an tho Car- narvon left W:IPG moved down tih-e field witri clock-like precision. The -hon» defenoe was tem- porarily at see. a.nd the backs hesitating J Jones DASHED IN AND NETTED AGAIN. This was a bifcber pill for the hoiri-esb^rs and tiho- Yisiting supporters were openly jubilant. The players, were not dei-wnlhcaited, however, ajid on the Play tlie visitors were iucky to be two goals ahead, the Oners" imdred were a better toem but lacked the finishing touch which is so vital. A foul by R.^ II. Roberts on R. Davics gave the "All Greens" an anxious !iiin»e, but they managed to clear tiheir lines. Fou/is were very frequent 1'jere.abouts and t'lie referee, hadi his work cut. out t. tl.<) Jaa--Wllliarts wt. ra6h.r abtc-Titiv"3 to his namesake on tha win.g and the referee gave kiii* a word of advioo.
