At the Happy Vailey on Saturday the above taam met in a friendly match. Five of the Bangers's team failing to put in an appearance, the start was delayed until £30. Substitutes har- ing been obtained for the absentees, the Rangers lined up as follows:-Bailey, goal; H. S. Spurge and 8. Holmes, backs; F. E. Herton, R. Lapsley, and Delmery, halves; H. A. Seth, R.

The half- time score was-Rangers, 1 goal; Army Orl- nance, nit. The second half was mostly in fatour of the Rangers, who were lusky, however, to score two more goals; the final result being -Rangers, 3 goals; Aray Ordnance, mil.

The Ordnance were a poor lot, and the Rangers not many degrees better, their shooting being about as good as the attempts at com. bination.
