HOLYHEAD RAU'A. Y INSTITUTE >, I BA?G<W RAILWAY INSTITUTE. vBy 'Soccer"). I Thie friendly encounter WA6 pla,yedd Hehbead on Saturday, the looaie' secon,(i string opposing t-he visitors' first L-eague team. me teams were:— Baogw. Donald; D. J. Thomas and R. Tayknr; J. Williams, llughie Edwards and Cawfield; W. Atherton, J. Jones, D. Pierce, W. Brown and D. Rowlatxfc. Holyhead: W. Jamees; Glyn Jooee and RoJand William*: W. T. Jones, R. Ellis svitd D. White; W. Will iams, R. Roberts, I J. Williams, J. Doughty and W. J. Ro- berts. Councillor n. JOIH'S (chairman of tb-e local authority) ha*i oliarge of the game, and Councillor F. B. Griffith (viee-chair- maji) net, the ball in motion. There wag a good crowd of cpectator. From beginning to end the game was fought out with great earnestness, both sides striving hard for the mastfvry. Dur- ing the liret ha!f the seniors had most of the play., and gained several promising openings, which were marred by faulty s hooting, albeit they did test the home goa.lic. froqu<\ntiy. only to find ihat he was exjual to the calls made upon him. Diek Ellis and Glvri Joiie., were a tower of strength in the home team, and llughie Edwards and D. J. Thomas in that of the \Í-iwI"6, who. try as they might, could not broak down the stubborn defence opposed to them. There was no score at the interval, and upon tlw rClUlJption the homesters en- joyed more than an equal share of the ex- changes, and several times caine within an ace of scoring. visitors were minus tJM services of Thomas for tfw greater part of this h«lf owing to his having <'<)!- lieled with a member of bi." own team, and eventually having 'to retire. 'the locals put up an exceedingly good light against a strong opposition, and deserve great credit. Towarife the (-Ioet-, a mis- take by the home defence let in Rowlands, and he made no mistake with a fine shot- Taking the game a whol e the visitors deserved their vii-tory, as they were & more virile and nippy eleven. There wm an abswioe of co ojwral ion among the home. forward. It will require a good second team to lower their colours when the League tourney opens. Final: Bangor 1, Holyhoad 0.

FOOTBALL NOTES. I The wws that Holyhead Jkad snatched a point at Henbi.gh was lialled with great satisfa^itwi, and hopes run high that the team will occupy an honouraiilo position in the ]x>ague when the curtain is rung down. Tommy J<vw^)h caught the eye of the spectators, and was c Las sod "wojidorful. Those of us who have seen Tommy playing this season arc not aurprised at this, for ha is an artist. Coolllss personified, com- bining spet(l with a trick moss of feet, is a dead ahot whenever he get, in sight of the goal, he is a player which should be be marked for honours. Abbit is another player who is reproduc- ing his old form, if not even improving upon it. ;j: Holyhead ought to show up better tlxan ever this swaon. So Coast clubs had bet- ter beware! By the way, Owen Williams appeared in Everton' s first team on Saturday. "I.hvyn- on'e" care^'r is being watched with oon- siderabVe interest by Holyheadians. I have a lively recollection of the clever wAy in which he "put the hat. on" Oliver some years ago at Bangor. < To-morrow the Holyhead first team visit Conway in the first rotmd of the Welsh Amateur Ctip Competition, the team being: J. H. Jones, R. Jones (c-aPt-.), Roland Willisana, R. Pairry, A. LI. Wiilliams, R. Ellis, II. J. I/ewiSj J. Abbifct, T. Joseph, W. J. Ellis and D. T. Griffith. At home the reamrvea enter upon the Second Divi- sion of the I^eagiH1, the visitors being NantlJe. Team: W. J. Jlug-hes, Glyn JorAft, R. Owen (oapt.), D. White, Jolin Owen, W. T. Jones, Hugh J ones, W. Wil- liams, R. C. Jboeet, Jas. Williams and W. J. Roberts. It lias been decided to form a football club at Llancfegai, rww Bangor, and a strong influential civnuniUoo appointed. Mr H. E. Williams, Bryn Errol. Llaridegai, was appointed secretary, and he would be glad to hear from secretaries of local clubs in order to arrange fixtures.

I NORTH WALES COAST LEAGUE. I DOUBLE FIGURES AT BANGOR. I Ban:cor (;omr 0" 18 Bangor Comrades 18 I t ? Cu?wyuBfy .? 0 I (By "Recorder"). I I The league season opened on Saturday at I Bauftor. wneri C-olwyn Way were the visitors. I The prame attracted! & splendid attendance. The teams were :— Comrades: Trevor Jones; Hwfa Williams and W. Roes Jones; G. Hill. Aspinall. H. Jones; Dick Jones. Harrison Williams, Ii. Owen. H. Da vice and M. Pattison. Colwyn Bay; H. R. Pary; Parry and T. McCann; J. O. Jones. Hart and Arthur Jones; taoyd levies, Percy Jones. Stanley Ilughee, Ll. Jones and bunt. Iteforee. Mr W. J, Williams, Belliesda. The (came, which started five minutes late, opened in brisk fashion, when M. Pattison sprinted along tie left and swished in a fine shot. Colwyn Bay then got off along the, right. The first goal fell to Bangor per Hujfhie Davies, who flashed in a fine shot. for a while Bangor monopolised the game and both extreme wingers put in some tellmtp work. A glorious opportunity fell to H. Owen, who. when favourably placed, ballooned the ball over the bar. Stanley Hughes opened out the game for the Bay. swinging the ball out to Percy Jones, who in turn, sent it. in, bnt no sroal resulted. The Bangor forwards were feeding Matthew Paitison very diligently, and he oWijted with a series of accurate centres which really deserved to find the net. At the other end Stanley Hughes sent in m nhot which beat the Iatigor goalkeeper, but the ball struck the ikisL Colwyn Bay were deprived of the services of Hart. who was ac- cidentally hurt, and directly afterwards an- other of their players. who received the ball in the pit of the stomach, was laid out bnt he scon resumed. Aspinall the Banpror centre half, also retired with a damaged leir, but soon resumed, II. Owen placed the ball in the net with a fine drive, but the referee bad previously whistled for offside. A minute later H. Owen again found the net and thero was no doubt about this point. 2-0. Stanley Hughes was a thorn in the sides (,[ the Ban- Kor defence. On one occasion he sent in a errand shot and the Bangor cusfodian had to fist the ball over the bar. Matthew Pattison, after tricking the Bay right wing, whizzed across an accurate centre which flashed across tlw. goal. It looked liko fizzling into a goal kick, when R. Jones rnahed up, and in a twinkling of all eye. the score was 3-0. Half- time. Bangor 3, Colwyn Bay, o. The arajne had hardly been resumed when H. Owen scored No. 4 for Bangor. Give and take play ruled for a time. H. Owen evoked a cheer for some clever head play and at the other end Stanley Hughes came into promin- etico with a terrific drive, which the custodi- an cleverly negotiated. Now and again the Bav broke eway, and Llewelyn Jones deserved credit for a fine cefJre from the extreme left. The Bangor forwards hiduljred in a neat pas- sintr movement, which ended in H. Davies registering No. 3. The Bangor players wero being continually placed offside, but Dick Jones got over the difficulty by borinsr throueh on his own and scored the sixth froal for Bangor. In less than a minute he sent the score up to 7. and Husrhic Owpn put in No. 8. whilst H. Davies obliged with tho ninth and liefore the same ended the Com- rades had sent the score to double figure-. I NOTES. I The Comrades are glut'.ons for goal! Twenty-two goals and those of the very best, in two successive matches is not at all a bad record. J.at Saturday's victims, Col- wyn Bay. put up a good fight—10-0 does no' exactly represent the run of the game-I)til, they were outc!*a=ed, 0'peciaHy the defence, though it included (he ned?nhta?tc McCanii, Once the B?ngor forwards got new the Bay goal, the ball was in the net. Has any team on the Coast such a fiins couple of extreme wingers as the Comrades postess? They simply could not do any- thing wrong on Saturday. Matthew Pattison was carefully shadowed in the second half, but he eluded his "uw" tilmo and agam, and whizzed across a deadly shot. The out- side right, Did Jonas, was always ill the. picture when goals were wanted. He has wonderful turn of speed. The whole of the Bangor tftm. with one obvious example, did well. The halves aro making good, especially in the art of feeding the forwards, and the full backs are a sturdy pair. The forward line M a whole combined well. The few glaring mistakes in passing were probably due to the fact that two teams were playing in shirts, coloured almost alike. it The star performer in the Bay team was Stanley Hughes, who is as clnsive as ever. Tho goalkeeper though beaten ten timet;, brought off several fine saves. The outside right in- dulged in two or three fine sprints. All the Coast teams must not run away with the idea, that they can extract two points ping 10 goals oat of the Bay. < tr Some improvement must he effected in ad- mitting the crowd into the Cricket Field. The pre-sent, slow arrangement is causing a good deal of grtimWing. A won't he 10-0 next Saturday," declared a supporter of the Bangor Railway Institute team at the conclusion of tho match. Tim Comrades and the Institute meet, on tho Cricket Field, and judging by what one hears, fur is likely to Ity.

CARNARVON v. CONWAY UNITED. I The woatlici was ideal for the first mut Ji of the season played at the Oval on Satur- day. A good attendance witnessed a tough game. Carnarvon:—J. Daniels; J. Jones anJ H. Morton Williams; Arthur Owen, Owen Morris, and R. Williams; H. H. Roberts, Walter Morris, Walter Jones, Fred. Suili- van, and W. Land. Conway C'harl ip Stal'ard; Stenton ami HughesEllis, Brookes Evans, alld J. Jonce; Ted Jones, Lewis, Lever Jones, Newton, and Hughes. The rcfeiec was Mr Tom Jones, Llan- dudno. The match was timed for kick-off at 3.30. but owin.; to a mishap Conway failed to arrive until about, 4 o'clock. For the iir,t te i minutes Conway, ,I'ho appeared to h.. in good form, kept the ball well in the Carnarvon side, and it seemed as if they were go' i- to have the best of the gain!. hut after the first quarter of an hour Con way began to s how signs of lagging, ajid Carnarvon became aggressive, and the forwards worked more harmoniously. In a few more mi nutes Walter Morris scored for Carnarvon. A more or less give-an.l lake gLine then prevailed, until R H. Roberts, fiom the outside right, gave a neat pa»s to Walter Jones, and the second goal wa-s registered for Carnarvon. 'Then came Conway's turn, and it was thought tihat tbev were to monopolise the remainder d itho game. This resulted in Ted Jones scoring one goal for (oriwav. Shortly afterwards Evans, with a fine s hot, scored a second goal for Conway. Carnarvon appeared to realise that t.he g&mo was going in Conway's favour, a fresh cfi'ort was made. and Walter passed n< atly from the right -M<le to W. Land, who gave a fine shot, resulting in three goal; for Carnarvon. Walter, in another few minutes. (Kissed from near the centre to Land, and four goals were secured for Carnarvon a few inin:itco bc- foft, half-time- 'hen the game was resumed Carnur- von missed a penalty. Conway were in- debted to Stal'.ard, their goalkeeper, for tIL., 1- good this piece of good luck. Afteo this it roomed as if neither side were going to score again, though opportunities occurred to Conway once or twice. However, Car- narvon once more seemed to revive. Wai- Morris pa.'ed to Land, who netted the ball. A few minutes later, wlien both sides seemed to he fairly o-q ual in ¡Jay, Walter Jones scored the sixth goal for Carnarvon. Tho forwards of both teams worked ad- mirably. The fact that the game wa olily played with one back on each ride was a disadvantage to the teams. Final result: Carnarvon 6, Conway 2. j

LLANFAIRFECKAN v. BANGOR COM- RADES RESERVE. On Saturday at 1 Janfairfechan a pleasant game was witnessed, the result being a win for the Comrades, 3-1. Llanfairfechan pressed, during a good part of the game, but their final efforts lacked direction. Their, only goal was scored by Atherton. The Comrades adopted very aggressive tactics, which brought them goals. For Llanfairfechan W. J. Jones, l .-on of Councillor L. D. Jones turned out and i gave good account of himself.

NORTH WALKS COAST LEAGUE I (DIVISION I.) DENBIGH V. HOLYHEAD R.I. Denbigh had their first- league match on I Saturday in glorious weather, and before A good crowd of spectators.

Davies broke through, and the former netted Denbigh's only goal. Some fine football was witnest-ed, both teams being very evenly matched. Half-time arrived with Holyhead having equalised. In the second half Denbigh had to play with only ten men, Bennett retiring early in the first half through an accident; but never- theless they played well, and neither tide could add to their score as the defences wero very keen. Holyhead are a smart lot, and good exponents of the "game. So were tho homesters. "A very good gsme" was the* verdict of the crowd. Final result: Dell- bigh 1, Holyhead 1.

NORTH WALKS COAST LKACLE-DIV. H. 1 GLA<I\tRYN t'U.K UP GOALS. f Glasinfryn 10 Nantlle Vale .I. l 1 The season opened at Nantlle Vale on Sat- urday when Glasinfryn were the visitors. This was the first time for Nantlle to have league aspirations, and tJ)e mafceh atiractcd a good and a very sporting crowd, which augurs well for the futnre of tlie game in 'he vale. The re- sult was a bit of a blow for the home team. t-hev were opposed to a team which has played together several times this season, and which includes several prominent players. There are several old veterans in the district m-tio might assist the Vale in iheir opening matches. The game was controlled by Mr Dick Jones, the Welsh international.

STORY OF A CONCERT I PARTY AT BANGOR. AX ENTERTAINER IMPRISONED I FOR FRAUD. A story of concert partio. stranded in seaside towns was told at. the Loudoll Sessions, on Tuesday. in the trial of Basil Reginald Jarvis, 32, entertainer, on charges of obtaining sums totalling £ 500 by false pretences. Jarvis pleaded not guilty. Mr Travors H um|>hrevs, protoouting. | said Jarvis advertised for demobilised officers to become managers of concert parties and told them h, was the origitta- tor of the Barnstormers Concert Party. wdl known on the various fronts. He had no connwtkwt with the original party. He p?rsuadec! the officers to hivest their motnoy on apjxntitmont as managers, and then sent them to the seaside, where there was no conrei'l party. They los-t their money. i Frederick Harcourt- Templeman said lie iiivwted £ 75. and was mad r?sidfnt man- ager at Bangor. On arrival he found the pavilion, where the <-ont?'-t? were to be given, a hea.p of wood. It had ??{MtrMtt- Iv been smashed by a steamer. No ea.sh was forthcoming for anybody, and he and the unfortunate artiste* had to pawn their things to live. Another vouti itnui. AIN- Kennedy, who invtxsted £50. was anminted riNsideot man- (?i, arr i v& he f otiii d ager at Peignton. Cti arrival he found a district manager and a4) assistant man- ager there, although there was nothing to manage. Tbey spent their time wiring to Jarvis for oaJJ. and a cheque arrived, but was three times refused by the bank. Mr Batten, the assistant- manager, who invented L50. be sa.id. jo.;t. all his money. Captain Price, who trivetAeKI 275. was made manager a.t Rxmouth. In this case also the artistes were stranded, and Mr Price k*«t his money. In another (-a,-A-, when the dimeulty ot tiie arustea was be- ing desoriWd Jarvis was seem to smile. Giving evidence on Wednlay the De- feindayit denied that he told anyone that he founded the original Barnstormers." He might have said that he ran a corn- jKUiy called Barnstormers"' in Egyjit and France, becaui* he had doiie so,, al- though the performer* in that were lhost- lv nuwiune-gunJiers. and not members of the 60th Division. Before the war he was a member of the Happy Valley Concert Party, and when ho was dean&bilised he decided to run seaside concerts with dis- charged soldiers and sailors. He paid £ 110 as rent for his No. 1 place at. Aberystwyth, and his Barnstormers" ran there to oop- tember. Unfortunately he lost 1;120 at Bangor. He received SH05 a, the pro cecds of his enterprises, ajid had pellt on them a sum amounting to B1050. In cross-examination Defendant said he heard of the Ba.rn;>to.rmers' in lypt, but not until he had already tikeri the name for his own company. lIe admitted that in registering hi.s concert party lie said it gave its first performance in Pales- tine in 1916. That was an error. Tfie date should have boon 1918. Ho believed the official Barnstormers wore founded in 1916. The hearing of the ease was concluded yesterday, when defendant was sentenced to five years' penal servitude.

The sum of 25WO has been offered, to. gether with a royalty on each bottle, for it formula belonging to a Dover man, M: Jackson, who claims the cure of con- sumption.

I A discussion oc<su'red as to tlie forma- tion of what is known as all Industrial Council for Bangor, :md rdN81wc was also made to the dc?ira?iHty of formjfg a local committee on the lines of the Whitley report. It was (»tatod that the latter committee would deal with all dis- putes between the Council and its work- men, and there would be equal represen- tation of employers and employed on the oomtnitt-M'. c*niin 'W-?e Mr Bayne feared that the committee would usurp the itowers of the Council, who were the only body responsible to the ra¡,ayN' Dr. T^ioinas thought that the Coumiii should be consulted in the lirst instance if the employees had any pr?\an<if. JPhere would be mdy {in members of the Council on the committee. Mr Taylor did not think any member of the Council knew what was really meant by the Whitley l nm.i1.t.e. 'nw committee did not ponsoss plwutry powers; the last- word would be with the Coun- cil.
