WALKS DEFEATED AT STOKE. I PETTER IN DEFENCE THAN ATTACK. Wales were defeated on. Saturday at StoKe. by two goals to nil in the international iiia!cU with England. The conditions wero excellent and a very large itowd watched the g;utie. England (ii(i tiist of tile ]it fira liiilf, ani ten minutes after tlio start Ho ikinson, went through the Welsh defence and put in. a centre from which Whitti igham scored with a ?>,t shot. The Welsh foi wards were seidom, dangeious, and the nearest approach to a score ralJle from a corner-kick befluiifuAly ptae^Hl by Meredith. Matthews rushed the bali int<» the net, but the referee ruled that tlu> ball had iK-en handletl. Itt life second lialf Elig- land again held the upper baud, and from, i-not her of llodkinson's .cntres Smith (Bolton) scored with » hot which Peers had no ehaneo to save. This completed the scoring-, hut Cock's iridividital rushes endangered the vrelsh goal on several occasion-. Wales made sev- eral determined efforts to score in the dosing; stages. Vizard was specially prominent on the left wing, but the inside foru ards f&iled to turn bis centres to account. Although England won, the play of the team was not convincing, and there was a lack of ooginality in the methods of the forwards, wno raiieti to ot*-n out the game, and indulges* in short passing whell wing to wing play wi.iild have been more effective. A■- an in- dividualist, Cock was a distinct- siuees.s in the ceiiTre, And a frefluent source of trouble to tii-e Welsh delenee. With a little more pac<> he woukt be a very effective leader tor any hHWMÙ line. Hodki.ison played brilliant football at outside left, taking his passes on the run and showing fill,- pice and skill. He had all excellent partner in Smith, who worked1 very hard, and made many openings lor both ilodkinson and Cock. Tnrnhull failed to re- produce the form he showed against Scotland in tiK, "Victory" matches last spring, and Whittingham, strong bulling player, lack- ed icsouree and linish. Hardy uas not se*- verely imtt.,d, but all his work was done qui-d- lv and effe«ti\elv. Smith, of West Jtromwich Albion was ;t sucetvs at right IvAck, wherfl he kicked und tackled with good judgment, but Hudspeth failed to play up to his clnby fortn. Watson was the be^t half back on( {he field, Parker and Bagshaw being com- parative failure. Waifs were better in defence than auack. Peers kept g(kil in tirst-cta-s .-tx V, the backs made few nust«ikes, and the half-backs wotk- ?: Lad and well. The iii?:?de forwards lack- cd finish, but Vizard was speedy and dner at ouhide l"ft 'aiKl the v<tcran Meredith mad" the best ute of the few opportunities that came his way.

The gdme opened briskly, both ,.hles play- ing well the hall being carried from one end of the field to another. The Comrades scored tileir first goal per IV. and A. E. Jones equalised for the visitors just beioro the interval. On resumption of play the visitors made glraight for the home goal, but Thomas, the home back, cleared. The homorters did their share of attacking, and after some fin'- work by W. Thomas, W. Hughes seeurcd the ball and made no mistake in scoring the second goal.

I DlUSCI; DEFEAT, Jim Driseoll, the former feather-weight chaoipioa of the world, and the idol .of W eiali boxers, v.as beaten at the National Sporting; dub 011 Monday night in the sixteenth round by Charleu Letlwux, the famous French boxer. The Welshman had put up a glorious fight, and the finish oanit with his seconds throwing* in the towel- The contest was scheduled for twenty rounds. The men were boxing at tho bantam-weight limit. On the face of it, therefore, there was not that disparity be- tween the weights that might have been ex- pected from the conditions. In mectinc Ledonx, Driscolt was taking on a man thir- teen years his junior, and one who in his contests in this country had proved hin^ell to be a very powerful and vigorous fighter.

I These local rivals mo: on the Cricket Fit-Id last Saturday and attracted a splendid crowd. The Comrades failed 10 put 011 the team orig- inally selected for various rca-ons. The teams were :— Comrades: Ted Owen; Hugh Jones and \V. Reetj Jones; Broek, Hwfa Williams and Dick Pattison; Dick Jones, T. Davies, il. Owen, M. Pattisou. J{ailw:n J/J1HtJ¡c; R O'JJonald; F.

The opening stages favoured the railway- men, arid Ted Owen was the-first, goalkeeper called iiivoii. It was ,01\11 apparent that tho six?etators were in for their money's worth, and each lot were straining every nerve to> score. The railwaymen foreod three eoifieia in isticcession. From the last Ted Owen listed out right to the foot of Johnny Jones, who, without trapping the ball, sent it flying into the corner of the net. Encouraged by their goal, the Institute vent off for all they" were worth. They were dead on the ball and looked like storing again, Uit Ted Owen saved what appeared to Ix, a certain' foal, on his kneeis. At length Dick Jumv got go- ing for the Comrades on tlu right and swung" the ball in at rather an awkward angle. H. Davies, however, essayed to head it and screwed the ball ill .jus' otii of reach 1-1. The railwaymen were by no means dis- concerted, and Furber on the left, did soino trick, work. The Institute scored No. 2 per D. P. Hughes, who, receiving a swift pass from a c-olleague, gave Tod Owen not ghost' of a chance, 2-1. The Comrades could not get into their stride while their opponent* were t PLAYING T.IKE WINNERS I They left nothing to chance, and very soou J another goal came their way. A corner was j forced and the ball landed at the toes of Furber, who slammed il into the corner of the net, l. One of the railwaymen (Brown) left the field owing to an injury, but this did not keep their forwards from buzzing round1 Ted Owen. At the other cud H. Owen had aj pot on fiis own. A lull came over the gamt> until the interval whistle sounded, when the tcore stood :— Railway Institute 3, Comrades 1. The instant the game was resumed, the rail- waymen lIlade tracks for the Comrades' goal. A mishap betel the Comrades, Tom Davied lieiiig carried bff the field with a damage*! leg, but he returned. The fourth goal camo in this wise: The railwaymen .-printed along the left, and the ball was swung to Pierce, who was standing far beyond the penalty line. Without hesitation he banged in a low shot, a fnot. off the ground., which beat Ted Owe.11, al! the way, 4-1. Now and again the Com- rades would break away, and everything1 pointed to a goal, when at the critical ino- mt'"t there would be hesitancy on the part of some forward, and ific movement fizzled out. On the other hand the Institute not only pji-yscl accurately, hilt dashed into nlt-jr opponents. A glorious chance was given H. Owen, wh(I, witll only the goalkeeper facing him. sent wide. Two or three more gilt-edged chances were given lite Comrades, but try as they would they could not net the Imll. In the closing stages of the game the Comrades maintained a pressure but score they could not, and when the final whistle went the fig-

NOTES. I To explain why the Institute won is not a particularly difficult task--they, unlike the Comrades, played a typical cup-tic game. Directly the game started they gave one tho impression that they were going io win. Dead 011 the ball, eschewing pretty football, anti- cipating the ball instead of waiting until it dropped at their toes, they played with that, assurai ce w hich brings success. o o flr What was wrong with the team which lia- been piling up a formidable goal recordIi* the first place their star performers, the ex- treme wing men were not allowed to get in tit their stride. The Institute wing halves had evidently received careful instructions to- shadow them, and prevent them getting illi their usual shots. Directly Dick lanes got the ball an opponent was either charging him or tackling him, with the result that he could; get no "forrader." Ditto M. Pattisou on the other side. The difference in the styles of the teaius was seen in the goal,. Three of the tout; goals scored by the Institute were registered by forwards who did not ptop to trap trre ball. They received passes and without any manoe- uvring they slammed the ball into the net. On tilt; other hand the Comrades, on receiving a puss invariably stopped the ball, hokcd round to which of their colleagues was bivt placed, and just as they finally decided to transfer the ball to him, a railwayman would run up at express speed and rob him. Home of the Comrades' forwards would bf well ad- vised to practise a little in the vicinity oi the goalmouth. Of the players the whole of the Institute* men acquitted themselves with credit, esj>eci- ally J. Jone.s in the forward line. lie xt:as ;t regular busy bee. Furlx-r and D. P. Jlngho.i were also much in the limelight. Hardly ;ti Comrade did him,-etf justice. The front lino could not get going, and Dick Pattison was the only one of the linti-es in like form. Even lfwfa Williams was off-colour. Ted Owen does not often allow ft)tii- Lo pa,,e him, but he did so 011 Saturday. :j; The Comrades arc not at all sat:sfied with the. result. --Tins teams will meet several timui before the season expires, and no <tuubt wet shall know by then who is top dog. One thinjj is certain that the meetings of there teams will cause the retpectivc treasurers to rejoice. Local footballers will be interested to know that at the two ree.-nt Victory International matches, with England, Goodwin (Oldham) formerly of the Bangor Normal College, play- ed full back for Wahv.

COLWl'N BAY v. LI.ANRUST. I WELSH AMATEUR CUP: FIRST ROUND. I STANLEY QLI'I'r-rTE._ I (By "Vedeae"). I Th" supporters of the Colwyn Bay Club were very crestfallen at the team's heavy defeat by the Bangor Comrades, alld como dOIlIJl wan felt as to the outcome of tho Welsh Ama- tetic c-tri)-tic with I,Nill.l%st. There was good attendance at this, the first bortw mllci, of the season, and the Llaniwst team yero accompuuicd t>y many enthusiasts. Tim ground near the Marine Hotel (half-way be- tween the main road to Abergele and the sea- shore) has lain idle during the war, and ib was in splendid condition, while the weather suggei--ted a summer's day. Colwyn Bay made two or three changes from the tealll beaten st Kangor, while Llan- rwft, who were playing their first senouit match or the season, were at full sfrengttj with the exception oT lV. Richards, their left, half-back. The teams lined up as follows « Colwyn Bay T. L. Davies; T. MeCaim (capt.) and Ted Ilarry; H. R. Parry, R. W. Roberts and J. E. llart; Peter Lunt, C. C. Mainwaring, Stanley Hughes, Hughie Hughes and Llew Jones. Lla-nrwst: W. C. Jones; Davit! Pritehard aud lvcy Gerrard; Archie Carter, 11. P. Evans and Fred Allen, Harry Jones. J. O. Jones, T. Davit*, D. Howell Joues (capt.), and K V. Elias. Referee; Mr Tom Jones, Llandudno Junc- tion. Linesmen Messrs K. J. Daves (Col- wyn Bay) and K Griffiths (Llanrwst). The Colwyn Bay team were late, in appear- ing and the game was delayed a few minutes in consequence. The opening exchanges were, even, but the Bay soon asserted themselves and kept the ball in their opponents' half, The visiting fowards broke away on two or three occasions in the first 20 minutes and threatened danger, but the first goal was scored by the homesters per Stanley Hughc>. Hardly had the cheering subsided, when H. R. Parry was hurt in a collision and carried off the field to the Marino Hotel. Dr. ti. L. Butterwqrth-Wilks was summoned and pro- nounced "his leg to be badly injured. 110 wa-s sent home to Llysfaen by motor car and it is feared must be laid up for some weeks. Ten. minutes later Llartrwst canalised through Har- ry Jones, who profited by the dcfellLc getting into a tangle. HaJf-ilme: Cohvyn Bay 1, Llanrwst 1. For a while in the first half Llanrwst altlQ played with ten men, but they resumed with a full team. In a few minutes the Bay had lead of two goals, both scored by Stanley Hughes. Play slowed down as both teams were feeling-tl)e effecte, of the fast pace at which the opdtiiug half bad bcea cootcetext,- but the Bay had little difficulty in holding their opponents, whose forwards, apart from occasional <Iasht-s. rarely gained pos*tsion of the ball. As time went on the home team's superiority became still iiore apparent, and Stanley Hughe's put the finishing touch to an attacking movement by registering their fourth goal. Later he scored the fifth from a penalty. Eiji-al Colwyn Bay 5, Llanrwst 1.

cow Å Y v. HOLYHEAD (W elsh Cup: First Itouvul). In the first round of the Welsh Cup Conwav entertained Holyhead on Satur- day. The game was keenly contested, the visitors excelling in their forward line, and J. H. Jones, their custodian, effect- ing sonic fine saves. (H the home team G tiy., Hughes and Tom Jones wore strcMig defenders. Joe Hughcs scored the first goal for Conway, after which Ted Jones added a couple more for the home- sters. Craven displayed SOllie good work on the. right wing. Stallurcl, the home goalie, was in splendid form and several times repulsed some deadly shots by tho harbourtnen. Finai: Conwav, 3; Holyhead. 2.

Playing with the breeze behind them, the visitors at onoo made play on the light, but the. movement was nipped in the bud. The homesters retaliated, and the visiting goalie brought off a capital save. After .ome give-and-take play, the visitors ii-ore forcM on the defensive, and although two or three oornns accrued to the homesters, they failed to und the net. Suddenly, the pressure was relieved, and to the sur- prise of the home defence the visiting forwards outwitted the halves and rushed away, leaving the lionie ha.(,ks in the rear. The movement ended in W..J. Williams scoring with ease. This roused the homo players, and less than a minute from the restart, they had equalised. Before the interval, two more goals were added, the home team leading by 3 gools to 1. L'fton the resumption, the homesters set about their work in earnest, and it was not long ere, from a throw-in by W. T. Jones, Hug-hie Jonos scored a fine goal. Shortly afterwards, W. Williams put his side still further ahoad, followed by an- other fi*olll IV. J. Roberts, who, a few minutes late* it>{>eattd the performance. R. C. Jones put on -No. 8, Roberts No. 9, and R C.

[ FOOTBALL NOTES. I A surprise occurred at Fulham, where Cov- entry ( ity, w ho had lost 9 games off the reel, suceiveded in drawing a match in which noth- ing was scored. » # < The match at Wolverhampton, willi Bury leading by a goal, was abandoned bo- fore the end. The crowd, taking exception to a decision by the referee, swarmed on to the field, and actually chased the referee to the dressing-room. The Arsenal have secured from Liverpool the transfer of F. Pagnam, a sturdy, thrusting, centre forward, at a fee said to be £ 1,500. Pag- 11am assisted Blackpool and Southport before joining the Merseyside team. The Old Colwyn Football Club having de- cided that the travelling1 expenses involved in membership of the second division of the North Wales Coaat League would prove too heavy for their resources, have joined the Rhyl and District League, which includes Rhyl Reserves, Rhyl Jolly Boys, Rhuddlan, Ruthin, Denbigh Church Guild and Denbigh Jfental Hospital. It is hOJ}fd another club from Rhyl and others from Llanddulas and St. Asaph will al-o take part. Acting OIL the suggestion of Mr Edward Bilhell, Old Col- wyn have entered for the, North Wales Junior Cup, so there will be plenty of football in the di.strict this year. The revival of football in Colwyn Bay has been marked by a great show of public inter- est and Saturday's gate when the homester* met Llanrwst in the first round of the Welsh Amateur Cup recalled the palmy days of the past. The home team thoroughly delighted their supporters, and they are assured ot a, good following this season. it McCann played finely, never making a mis- take, and although he must be considered a. veteran his display was a feamre of the match. Robert got through a tremendous amount of work at centre-half and was always very eager. Stanley Hughes, one of the finest players on the coast, was the bright star of the forward line, and he has never exceeded his bag" of five goaJ, although once scoring a like number against Conway on the old1 Llannerch-road ground. Llew Jones was fast ami clever at outside left. The team as a. wliole gave promise of developing into a very uselul combination. Llanrwst were disappointed, and there was great surprise in the market tow 11 when news* of the team's heavy defeat arrived by tele- phone. The defence played fairly well, but the halves gave a poor display, and the for- wards had no cohesion in the second half. The team must do mlldl better if it is U* maintain the traditions oi the dull. o on the local Comrades and ttie Bangor Railway Institute yielded a "gate" of X44.

I HOLYHEAD JOTTINGS. I Notwithstanding ihe big total recorded by the homesters it could easily have been ia- creused with a little more s'cadinew. A her in tue ndnitj ()f the goal, several "certalllt,je: being til row n away, especially in the first half. The visitors were 110 match for their op- ponents, although they opened very promisf- wigly, aiwt were the firt to find the net. Tl*ey win not be .-o heavily defeatei when the team gets going and is at full ttrength. The star perlornier was llughie Jones, win* possesses a rare turn of speed and centres with judgment. lie is undoubtedly a tijid. I am sure Hughie will accept one word of advice in the spirit in which it is tendered, and that is that Instead of trying to score from the touch-line he should place the ball lot" the otlH f forwards. The tendency is that when all outside mall endeavours to score from, the wing the ball goes behind and thus the) waiting forwards are not given the opportun- ity for which they are A-ailiijg. Glyn Jones again did well. He is a rising? player and has the making of a "class" buck. Of the forwards W. J. Roberts was thev most promising, though he must cure a ten- dency to being offside. Ttwre were palpable weaknesses at left full. left half, centre half, and the inside forward and A-lien these positions have been gtrcngth- f wd the team wilt take some beating. From all accounts the better teant seem to have lost at Conway, though there is not much satisfaction to be derived from riflis. Thei win is the thing after all. Reverting to the home game, I should ILku to congratulate' the old Bangor international upon his admirable exposition of how tho game should be controlhxl. We want morci "live" referees, and the more we get the bei- ter will it be for the playing of clean, healthy football. A new-comer to local football will appear in the ranks of the. second team to-morrow-i Mr Hughes, a master at the County School, who whilst at Cardiff University gained his cap. Great things arc expected of him. The first team journey to Bangor to-morrow (Satui'<lay) when they will meet the Com- rades in the first round of the Amateur CUI) competition. Team: J. II. J ones; R. Jones (eapt.) and Roland Williams; J. Abbit1, A. IA. Williams, R. Ellis; Hugh Jones, R. Par- ry, T. Joseph, W. J. Ellio and D. T. Griffith. The second team to meet Bangor C'om- rades on the Recreation Ground at 2.4b to-inorrovv is as follows:- W. J. Hughes, Gtyn Jones, G. Griffiths, W. 1. Jones. R. Owen, T. Parry, W. Williams, J. Wil- liams, H. J. Lewis, H. Hughes (County School') and W. J. Roberts.

I SPORTING ITEMS. I Major D. McCalmont's fine co!t Tetratema, starting at 4 to Ion, proved an easy winner u: the Middle Park Plate on Friday, the chief event on the concluding day of tho New- market meeting. Another success fell to tho King, his colt Viceroy beating the Earl of Derby's Glacialc in the Royal Stakes. The glove fight between Bombardier Wells and Jaek Curphey, at the Holborn Stadium on Friday night, resulted in an easy victory for Wells, who knocked his opponent out in the second round. The theory that first-classs golfers can drive the twill "impossible" distances was upset- again on Saturday at Sandy J.odge. The drives ol Harry ardon, James Braid, J. II. Taylor, and Alec Herd were mea-sured at tho twelve holes, which could not be reached traii4 the too, and, with an almost complete absence of wiud and on a perfect fairway, only onco was 250 yards exceeded, while the best average --tti,it of Braid in tile morning-wa.s a littlo lea, than 231 yards. 1 < < Jimmy Wilde, the By-weiglit champion ol the world, b sailing for America by the White Star liner Baltic from Liverpool, on October 29Ui.
