AMAZING FOOTBALL.

FURTHER NEWS OF THE MATCH.

ARGENTINA FEUD.

English and Scottish football fans who sometimes imagine they have a monopoly, of “enthusiasm for Asso- ciation football will be interested in the scenes which took place in Buenos Aires (Argentina) and

Monte Video (Uruguay) before and after the match for the "World" Football championship between teams representing Argentina and Uruguay. The game was played In Monte Video.

The Argentine club were the favourites, but they were defeated by four goals to two before a record crowd of 98,000. The spectators wero described by the local Press as "fairly orderly." This may have been due to the fact that 5,000 sup porters of the visiting team were relieved of their revolvers by | Uruguayan officials as they landed from steamboats which had brought them from Buenos Aires.

More than 50,000 people gathered in front of Buenos Aires newspaper offices to hear broadcast descriptiona of the game, and official, legislative, and commercial activity WAS brought to an absolute standstill while the whole country awaited the restilt.

Astonishing scenea followed the Announcement of the result in Buenos Aires.

A woman seated on a balcony in the Avenida de Mayo waved a Uruguayan flag and cheered the victors. She was immediately stoned by an angry crowd, and had to be removed to hospital.

Fans Visitation. Disappointed "fans" vialted the premises of the 'Uruguayan Club in Calee Tucuman and smashed most of the windows.

There were similar occurrences at the Uruguayan Consulate, half- bricks and stones being hurled Mounted through the windows.

police endeavoured to clear" the street, but were repulsed after firing revolvers into the crowd.

In another part of the city-a party of angry "fans" smashed the windows at the Club Oriental.

After dinner thousands of young rūmans set out to play the old game known in Buenos Aires as "Sacaree el sombrero. This is played by a marching column headed with flags, and woe betide the man who fails to salute the colour by taking off his Ent.

Many in the central streets were imprudent enough to omit the salute, and were fired at and wound- ed in the Calla Orientes":

It was past midnight, when bãe polito succeeded in breaking up the last of the gangs.

over a week or more at the rate, any, of 30 holes a day. In mest other games competitors have moments of relaxation. They need not be keyed up the whole of the time. No such moment of relaxation

is possible in a golf championship.

On the links in such

contests a player must be "strung up" from start to finish of eách game. If he goes slack for a moment, he will fall. The man who fails to con- centrate with all his power, and be- comes slack at any stage of the game, does not win big golf cham- pionships. It may even be doubted if he ever succeeds in a mere club fixture--If the course is a long one, and a series of eliminating rounds have been landmarks on the hard road to the final.

Many years ago Michael Scott (who recently played so finely in the British amateur championship with out quite reaching the final stages), and the late Clyde Pearce had a Titanic struggle in one of the big fixtures In Melbourne. They were both young and fit and in the best possible playing condition. They had a hard battle right through the big match being keyed up from start to finish. The result was that for the rest of that tournament they
