The Corps were the first to attack, Stalker getting away on the left and put fg in a nice centro, which was sent be- hind. The Artillery goal then had n very narrow sape. Devine, in fielding a very high shot from Chassele, failed to hold it, and the ball dropped in the goal- mouth Irvine rushed up but missed, the ball being eventually put behind by one of the R.A defendors. The Artillery then went away, and for a time looked like scoring. A teal near the penalty area gave them a chance. Talfourd took the kick and passed to Youngman, who put in & centro across the goalmouth which went begging Later, the same player Just missed the upright with a hard low shot. The Defence Corps was soon on the go again, and Ralston sent in a long shot which ought to hare been saved, but Devine, misjudging the ball, ran out, and it bounced over his head into the net.
