CLUR DEFEAT ARMY.
Though the Club defeated the Army by 28 points (2 goals and tries) to 8 points (1 penalty goal) at Happy Valley yesterday even- ing, the match was never without interest.
Considering that the Club had assembled a representative fifteen for the first time this season they took little time to settle down to real business, and a try resulted a few minutes after the commence- ment of play. From the kick-off they took the ball to the Army twenty-five where a series of faulty scrummages took placé. Eventually the Almy gained possession
and the ball was passed, somewhat erratically, to the fullback who failed to gather, it, Gammell seizing this 'oppor- tunity to run over and touch down.
It was not long afterwards, how- ever, that the Army drew level with a penalty kick, awarded well outside the Club twenty-five.
| Against Stanion-off-side.
In the early stages of the game the Army were getting the ball away from the serum rather oftener than the Club but the weakness of their outsides soon' became apparent, and it was not long before their halves resorted to a "Safety-first" policy, Kicking for touch on almost every occasion they received the ball. This policy did not, and seldom does result in scoring though under the circumstances. it was no " doubt justified.
On the other hand, the Club outsides were combining extreme- ly well, and their superior handling and speed was the chief feature of the game. It is not surprising, therefore, that the seven, further occasions on which the Club crossed the Army "lino proved the outcome of sound co- operation
their on the part of threequarters.
With the scores, levél the game reached its most interesting stage, particularly as neither side at this time showed any distinct superi»- ity. Lammert. after a long run was robbed of what had the appearance of being a certain try. He was brought down across the goal-line, but not before thei corner-lag had been displaced. Consequently a drop-out was given and play remained central for some time,
Before half-time further tries were added by Goldman and Law, one of which Goldman was very fortunate to convert, the ball striking the left-hand post and just falling on the right side ct: the cross-bar.
With a lead of eight points the Club became even more aggressive in the second half, ude", another. twenty points without geply. Five minutes after the resumption of play Goldman endeavoured to find touch with a high punt. The Army back gathered the ball but was too slow with his kick, with the result that the bell rebounded off Goldman, whe had followed up. across the goal line. The Club man was the first to realize which direction the ball had taken and ran across for an easy ty. The Kick at goal failg

By this time the Army three- quarters were" rapidly going pieces and two quick tries follow ed on the left wing, coming from Lammert and plummet. Lammert's try was the result of an excellent passing boul in which the ball travelled the entire breadth of the feld. Plummer's try necessitated quite a long run but, having dawn the full back," he was not justified in. taking the onus upon himself when Lammert, Ms wing- three, was in position and unmark-
