Halifax Through At Long Last
London, Dec. 21: Halifax and Mansfield met for the fourth time-to-day in the second round of the F.A. Cup, and after extra time was played, the former won by the odd goal in three. The match was played on the Manchester United's ground.
In the first match played be. tween the two teams, at Hali- fax, the result was 1-1. The second match was played at Mansfield, and though extra time was given, the game was left drawn at 3-3. Extra time was again necessary on Mon- day when the team clashed once more at Doncaster, but neither side was able to score. -Reuter,
