Winning the tos meant very little, but Berry got it, and this Tars kicked off with a good heart and with a cheering party of sons hundreds to back them up. The opening kicks were near midfield, but play soon began to settle in the vicinity of Martin and Gander, the Naval backs, and the magnitude of the task that had been set the lads in navy blue" soon became painfully apparent. They were seconds late in going for passte, and they were yards put in getting to the ball for heading purposes. The Dragropes intermediato line took up their position inside their opponents half, and Green and Langford operated near the half- way line, covering each other nicely and making for all intents and purposes three. backs. To put it short and sweet, this was an unassailable position; the rare occasions on which a sailor got into the enemy's half found him alone; he was worried by Berry or Westbrook till he had to part with the ball, and then it was snapped up by that marvellous Bran, Groen, or hia companion Langford, and a big kick again landed it in the goal area or at the ever ready feet of Pincher" or other of the R.A for- warda,

Cartwright soured: Berry scored Corement is almost superfluous. Crane was irresistible, head and feet coming into play indiscriminately, and Cartwright was much the same. Both seemed to have their sights set on the goal and to have clamped up. It will be noticed that the wing men do not figure in the shooting returns they did good work passing to nien better posted. Green's penalty was a simple affair. The Hampshireman coolly picked up the ball about eight yards from goal and was genuinely surprised when the whistle sounded for a penalty. His words carried conviction when he said he mistook the white lines on the ground.
