LOCAL FOOTBALL. BARRY AND CADOXTON DISTRICT UNITED V. TAFF VALE WANDERERS. These teams met each other on the Witchill Athletic Grounds, Cadoxton-Barry, under the most adverse circumstances on Saturday afternoon last. The field was in a fearfully bad condition, and rain fell heavily almost all the time during the match. The home team played at great disadvantage, inas- much as they had five of the seconds playing as sub- stitutes for first men, and another who played for the first time this season. However, the visitors kicked the ball off against the wind, the leather being mag- nificently returned by Morgan (the "starry" machinist), and was well followed up by Wadrup, who collared the visitors' full back before he had time to return. Some hard work then took place by both teams, and after some give-and-take-play, the visitors were allowed a free kick, the ball being returned by Hopkins to half-way, and in the space of a couple of minutes Morgan (who undoubtedly would be an acquisition to the first team) soored a try, which Richards failed to improve upon. After revelling a little in the mud, which evidently was rather enjoy- able to the onlookers, half-time was declared, the homesters leading in the score by a try and three minors to a minor. The usual interval over (during which period no lemon juice was forthcoming), some smart play took place, and Perryman, for the visitors, effected a try which Powell failed to convert. From the kick-out the play settled down in the home 25, when Perryman again scored a try. At the con- clusion of the match the scores read :—Taff Vale, four tries and four minors; Barry and Cadoxton Dis- trict, one try and four minors. Morgans and Hop- kins (of the seconds) played a sterling game all through for the home team. The following comprised the teams :—TaF Vale — Back-Frank Shackle; three-quarter backs—T. McMullin, C. Kelly (captain), Charlie Mills, and E. Howells half-backs—H. Kin- nersley and S. Perryman; forwards-H. Balding, W. King, W. Sawyer, A. Perryman, Casey, Tom Kelly, W. James, and W. Thomas. Barry and Cadoxton Ihstrict — Back — Lewis three-quarters backs—G. H. Washbourne (captain), W. Protheroe, G. Richards, and M. Hopkins half-backs—T. Mor- gan and C. Lane forwards-R. Blake, Rees Davies, E. Wadrup, J. Mildon, W. Ekers, H. Ekers, F. Seagram, and another. NOTES ON THB GAME. [By an Old When will our men show that they feel real interest in football, and turn up for matches without so much trouble? But it was, perhaps, a little excusable on Saturday last, for the fixture was not arranged till late Thursday night, and the weather was "simply awful! I think, however, if some of the gentlemen who took office would show their faces on the ground when matches are taking place this would have a tendency to bring good men out, for, if players can see that interest is being taken in the club by the officers they will then be more ready to turn out themselves to play, feeling that they are determined to make a good team of it. Now, you enthusiasts, do try to deny yourselves of going to Cardiff to see big matches, and let us see that you have the interest of the District Club sometimes at heart by coming to the ground when there is a match on. In two or three years' time, when, all being well, the few men who are now struggling hard for the good of the club have succeeded in making it a grand success, then thele will, no doubt, be plenty to share the honour. # Well, sir, this little grumble over, I feel I have relieved myself of something I wanted to say for a long time, and I hope at the next match to hear of the gate beating the record. « The district team on Saturday last was by no means representative of the club, no less than six substitutes being imported from the seconds, and some of them turned out for the first time since last year. The visitors had been more fortunate, for they bad a very strong combination, and in addition to the pick of their own teair. had valuable help from the St. David's and LlamdaS Clubs, in the well known footballers, Perryman at half, and Mills at three- quarter, in addition to four others from the clubs named. I must confess when I heard what a team the district had, and what a team the Taff had, my heart soak. However, the game was started, and for a short time the play was of an even description. The home men had the advantage of the wind, and soon made Vire tferajima Wadrup, following up capitally, collared the full back before he could return, thus taking play to near the visitors' line. The ball was soon after forced over the line, and the full back conceded a minor to the district team. From the kick-out a serum ensued, and Morgan, getting the ball, ran down the field, passed to Richards, the latter player, when being oollared, passing back to Morgan, and he landed the ball over the line in a twinkle. Nothing more was soored till the call of half-time, with the exception of three more minors for the home men. # With the change of goals came a change of play. The visitois pressed, out the home men defended gallantly for alt>out a quarter of an hour, and then a blinding storm came on right in their faces, the wind increasing, and worse than all, want of condition began to tell, and I know well that for the last quarter of an hour, had one or two of the Cadoxton Stars been available they could have taken the places of some of the forwards with advantage. I know one man said a straw would have knocked him down, for he was clean knocked up," and the visitors, who were now in the pink of condition, crossed the line four times. + Lewis took charge of the goal, and I think that, with a little practice with the team, he will be worthy of hie place. # The three-quarters were by no means up to their usual form. They must pass better, and for stopping rushes they would do well to take the example set by Morgan at half, by falling on the ball, and not taking flying kicks. • Of the quartette I fancied Richards most. He is always to be depended upon to play the same steady game. Hopkins came out for the first time this season, and played better than could have been ex- pected under the circumstances. Washbourne (the captain) would do well to set his men an example in passing. I hope to, see him study it a little more next match. He dribbled once or twice in pretty style. "Taft" was a bit off," and to him must one of the opposing tries be laid, for had he been in his place the man would never have gone in, for Protheroe is a sure collarer. He irust bear in mind that he has to mark his own man, and keep in a position on the field to do it. The committee will do well to play the halves that did battle on Saturday regularly. They are men who can be depended upon to turn up and "quit themselves like men." The way in which Morgan saved was the general topic after the match. Lane, also, never tires of giving his three-quarter a chance. « Of the forwards it is rather difficult to speak singly, for all did their level best. Rees Davies, as usual, comes in first as a good all-round worker, and the best I can say of him is that he is keeping up his past reputation. W. Ekers shines better as forward than as half, and it would be a hard matter to beat him. Wadrup followed up and tackled well. The others can all be classed together as doing everything they could to make a win of it. I will simply add that several of the men who were playing on Saturday should be picked as "regulars by the committee, and not as reserves." PENARTH V. PENYGRAIG. [BY OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] Ill wretched weather the match between Penarth and the famous hillside men came off on Saturday last. The continual downpour of Friday night and for the greater part of Saturday morning, together with the copious showers that fell during the match, made the ground in a most unfavourable state for any- thing like a good display of scientific football. Slush abounded on every side, and before the match had progressed many minutes most of the players were in a very deplorably dirty condition. It speaks well for football enthusiasm in Penarth, that so many were found round the ropes braving the discomfort and danger of cold and wet. A match between Penarth and Penygraig is always looked forward to with very great interest by the public. For years these two teams have had hard and desperate struggles for supremacy, and when Penarth generally win at home, the hill men generally come out best and make things even at the return match on their own dung-hill," where, it is said, every cock crows best." Penarth had been hoping against hope for fine weather, for then they could bring off the passing game-their strong point. But they were doomed to disappointment, and when the teams entered the field under a threatening sky and rather late in the day, people saw Penarth would have a hard nut to crack," as the game would be a1 together a forward one. » The teams were constituted as follows :— Position. Penarth. Penypraig. Back G. Shepherd.D. Lloyd Three-quarter R. M. Garrett Phillips Three-quarter H. E. Morgan Rowlands Three-quarter .H. Kirby .Carver Three-quarter W. Cosslett Stoddart Half-back T. Hulchins Morgans Half-back G. Bowles T. Foster Forward.J. Lawday Rowlands Forward G. Brown Ellis Forward J. Matthews Davies Forward. J. Edwards George Forward J. Millward D. Evans Forward W. P. Edgington Phillips Forward P. Jackson Ramsey Forward .J. White Gammon Penarth kicked off in the teeth of a strong wind, and play settled down in mid-field. Here, Morgan, who was on the alert, picked up and threw to Kirby, but this player missed the oval and also missed a fine chance of showing off his sprinting capabilities. Shepherd, getting the ball down his end, put in a fly- ing kick, but D. Lloyd returned magnificently, and a minor was soon conceded to Penygraig. The same thing occurred a few minutes later; and Penarth, now began to see the necessity of playing all they knew. The forwards went at it with a rush, and Cossletr, by some sterling play, which delighted the I gallery," helped to carry the ball well into the hill men's territory. Now came the business of the scrimmage. Scrum after scrum was formed, the Penarth nalves doing well at this period, and, getting the ball, Cosslett almost crossed the rubicon. The Penygraig men, however, were very strong in the scrum, and after defending their lines in a most astonishing manner, actually invaded the Penarth ground and crossed the line but lost the ball, one of the Penarth forwards rushing up and kicking it dead. Scrums again I-flopping and floundering in water The Penarth forwards attacked fiercely in the open, and, supported well by their backs succeeded in exact- ing a minor from their enemies just before half-time. ° People imagined now Penarth were in for an easy victory. They would have the wind in their favour, and that was no small factor in calculating the result. "The times," however, "seemed out of joint for Penarth." After a vigorous attack, in which they in- r( vaded the visitors' territory, they lost ground by free kick- awarded to Penygraig, and the homesters' 25 became the scene of a stern and desperate fight. Covered with mud the men on both sides slipped about and fought, and struggled, covering themselves with slush and with glory. And the crowd cheered to the echo at times, and occasionally laughed loudly, for the struggle had in it, now the elements of a brave encounter, and now the elements of a most laughable farce-especially when Tudcr Foster got picking the mud out of his eyes. And so the fight went on- Penarth sweeping the enemy before them in the open, but losing in the scrum. At length the homesters were right in front of the Penygraig goal post, and Matthews, with a quickness and dexterity highly commendable, landed a beautiful field goal. Then came cheer upon cheer from the Penarth crowd when it was seen their pets were likely to win. Soon after the kick-out Cosslett got the ball and made the run of the day, and was within an ace of scoring. Peter Jackson, Edgington, and Brown again attacked with a magnificent dribble and secured another advantage for Penarth by bringing the leather almost up to the the visitors' line, But all too late the advantage came To turn to odds the deadly game. For while Penarth were struggling furiously to get over the whistle blew. And so the curtain fell REMARKS ON THE GAME. Isn't it a pity that some of the Penarth crowd could not bow to the decisions of the referee without a dis- play of unsportsmanlike feeling? There is no use concealing the fact that there was an exhibition of this kind. As Polonius says" Tis true, 'tis pity and pity 'tis, 'tis true." Referees are sometimes placed in a most unenviable position. The new rules anent toff-side play will probably cause a lot of trouble through the additional judicial functions they throw upon these gentlemen. But it will still be their duty to do what they think is right, and deal out the law without fear or favour. No doubt the field goal was a very lucky thing for Penarth. Some people, however, think it altogether a mere freak of fortune, and that Matthews himself was surprised at the result of his kick. But if we go on arguing about fortune we may argue to any length. Napoleon used to say that he.neverjtost^the. battle ^of dence won it for the British by sending rain in the early morning, and thus making the ground so miry that the French could not drag up their artillery in sufficient time. And so in like manner Penarth might argue if it had not been for the rain their backs would have made things warm generally for "he hillside team-" Quid pro quo » A few words about the players. The Penarth for- wards excelled in the loose, but were not good enough in the scrum. Jackson, Matthews, Brown, Millward, and Edwards I thought most energetic though the others worked hard and distinguished themselves, too. Rowlands and Phillips played well for Penygraig. Shepherd, at full back, played a grand game. He did the right thing at the right time. Lloyd too, played a sterling game for the hillmen. Both backs were the salvation of their respective teams. The Penaith three-quarters have many a time shown to better advantage. Coslett played like a heio. Dick had not sufficiently recovered to do him- self justice. Kirby fielded badly and missed one or two passes. Morgan played well. Rowlands as three-quarter was the best of the Penygraig men. Rowles and Hutchings did well at half, especially in the earlier part of the game. One of their opponents was notoriously offside in his tactics. Tudor Foster tried hard to score and played a good game. Letua hope we shall have weather on Saturday, and that Penarth will go in for a bold open game, with their three-quarters in fine form. To beat the "Scarlet Runners" they must play up to their old form. Go in Penarth SUDBROOK V. PENARTH 2ND. Played at Sudbrook on Saturday last. Penarth won the toss, and Sudbrook kicked off. Lambert returned, and fast play ensued, in which Penarth had a slight advantage. From a scrum Brown and Hubbard secured the oval, and, after being handled by all the visitors' backs, it fell into the hands of C. Kirby, who ran nearly the whole length of the field, when he was tackled on the line and lost the ball. Hubbard eventually dropped on the ball, and scored for Penarth. The place kick failed. Sudbrook dropped out, the oval falling into the hands of Tanner, the visitors' back, who made a creditable drop for goal from inside his own half-way flag, the ball falling right under the bar. Sudbrook touched down. After the drop-out, C. Kirby got possession, making a splendid run to the centre. The same player was now compelled to retire, having, unfortu- nately, twisted his knee out of place, thus depriving Penarth of their sprinter. On resuming, a pretty bit of passing was witnessed. From a serum Brown threw to Hubbard, who passed to Matthews, the latter transferring to Maisey, and he in turn gave to Lambert, who nearly got in. Hutchins eventually dribbled over, Sudbrook touching down just in time. Half-time was now called, the score reading- Penarth, one try and two minors; Sudbrook, nil. Lemons" over, Penarth, who were now playing fourteen men, started the leather in a perfect storm of rain and hailstones, making the ball so greasy that passing was out* of the question. The home back returned. Tanner, who was on the alert, put in a huge punt to the Sudbrook 25. The visitors penned their opponents inside their 25 flag. Sudbrook, breaking away, rushed down the field, and the visitors' backs mulling let Sudbrook in, a try being the result, but the point was not improved upon. Penarth dropped out, and, following up, prevented a return, again penning their opponents. The home back got possession, and put in a long kick. Penarth conceded a minor. Time was now called, the visitors having had the best of the game throughout, their running and passing being much admired. The game ended in a draw in favour of the visitors. Score:— Penarth, one try and two minors; Sudbrook, a try and a minor. The following did duty for Penarth :— Back-J. Tanner; three-quarter backs-C. Kirby, B. Lambert, F. Maisey, and E. Kirby half-backs—T. Brown and T. Hubbard forwards-E. Ellis, J. Dyer, F. Hutchins, F. Matthews, W. Escott, Williams, J. Price, and T. Dugmore. Penarth were short of two of their usual forwards, namely, D. Davis and J. Manley. Our Sudbrook correspondent writes :— Penarth winning the toss, Sudbrook kicked off, up the slope and against strong breeze. The home team at once rushed the oall into the visitors' 25, where a tight fight was waged. For a period of about ten minutes the visitors were penned, but ultimately the Penarth three-quarters relieved to the centre of the field, and by some short passing got dangerously near to the home line. The ball being rushed across the goal line, Sudbrook conceded the first minor. W. Beasley dropped out from 25, and the home team, by some good following up, prevented the return. After some scrimmaging in the centre, the Penarth halves got the ball, and after being handled by several of the Penarth three-quarters, the ball was passed into the hands of C. Kirby, who made a grand run from mid- way between the Sudbrook 25 and half-way to the home-line, where he was upset by Compton, the Sudbrook full-back. The ball went over the line, and Hubbard, one of the Penarth men, fell on the ball and scored a try for Penarth in the comer. The kick at goal failed. The ball being dropped out some very even play ensued, the Penarth team's passing being more than neutralised by the Sudbrook three- quarters good kicking, and W. Beasley eventually taking a drop at goal caused Penarth to touch down in self-defence. A storm breaking over the field just now, the welcome sound of the referee's whistle for half-time was signalled by a general run for shelter. Resuming, after the interval, some give-and-take play ensued in the centre, but the ball being rushed close to the visitors' line, G. Beasley dribbled over and scored for SudbJook, seven minutes after the restart. The kick at goal failed. Owing to a heavy storm which had now come on, nine or ten of the Penarth team refused to play any loncer, and left the field for the dressing-room, to the great disappoint- ment and vexation of the Sudbrook team. As only the captain and four others stopped on the field with the Sudbrook men, there was no alternative but to declare the game at an end. It may be added that it was a great disappointment to the Sudbrook team, as well as their supporters, as the Sudbrook players had fully made up their minds to pile up a good score in the second half with the slopf; and strong wind in their favour. Score—Penarth A, a try and two minors Sudbrook, try and minor. Sudbrook team. Back—W. Compton three-quarter back-G. Beasley, J. Criddle (captain), A. Lewis, and C. Cumper; half-backs—W. Beasley and S. Dodd forwards-A. Maisey, W. Woodman, H. J. Cane, J. Cartwright, A. Bolton, C. Nicholas, T. Pickering, and W. Bartle; referee-Mr G. Waters, Chepstow. DYNAS POWIS V. ELY JUNIORS. Played on the Common at Dynas Powis on Satur- day afternoon last. Ely won the toss, and played with the wind. C. Isaac scored for Dynas Powis shortly after the kick off. Nothing more was scored till half- time, after which E. Watkins got across once and H. Alexander twice, the home team, therefore, winning by four tries and four minors to nil. The attempts at goal all failed. LLANTWIT MAJOR V. COWBRIDGE. The second match of the season was played at Llantwit Major beween Cowbridge and the home team on Saturday last, in wretched weather. The toss was won by Llantwit, who elected to play with the wind. Directly the ball was set rolling a deter- mined rush for the visitors' 25 was made, and touches down in self-defence twice ensued. From a scrum in the visitors 25, Price (captain) getting the ball, passed through the visitors' backs, and secured a try, which he converted. After the kick-out, Cowbridge had again to concede another minor. Play in the first half was confined chiefly to the visitors' 25, and owing to the high wind and slippery state of the ball and ground, but little passing could be accomplished, and the forwards had most of the work. After changing ends, the visitors, with wind at their back, managed for a time to keep play in neutral territory. One iof the visitors' three-quarters breaking away, and getting near the line, was well collared by the Llantwit back. A maul ensued, and the home team had to concede a minor. The visiting team here dis- puted the ruling of the referee. After kicking out, the home forwards rushed the ball into the visitors' lines, where a Succession of tight scrums were formed. Cowbridge again conceded two minors. Time was now called, the ball being in dangerous proximity to the visitors' goal line. Score-One goal and five minor" to a minor.

CRICKET EXTRAORDINARY.—As to records of bowling, can the following be beaten ? The Gentleman of Ireland played a match some ten years ago against a representative team of Wales at Llanfairfechan. One of the Irishmen bowled two overs—eight balls-with no runs, and took seven wickets. He was Horace Hamilton, who died very suddenly early this year from heart disease. He is reported to have been the strongest fast bowler Ireland ever produced."
