After the severe snowstorm last year, which made several grounds aplayable, we had to net on pitches which were coated with a thick lay er of mud.. It was impossible to move about on this with the neces gary speed, so- the need for a work- ing harmony of all three officials

•was more essential than ever,

The ill was kicked well up the feld from a scuffle in the goal- mouth; and again lifted down the centre to the centre-forward, when the whistle went for offside, though I had not had time to move from the penalty area.

Law 13 deals with the duties and power of the referee, and part of it with a very important subject- ungentlemanly conduct.

Olten during games I have heard players calling to each other con- cerning their policy-which is quite in order sometimes, though there are times when a shout may be mis- interpreted by an opponent in the immediate vicinity. In such case the player who shouts may be deem- ed guilty of ungentlemanly con duct. To admonish him and carry out the law, however, might give his side an advantage. It is there- fore not always wise to carry out the warding of the law. It might be better to make a quiet request to the offender. If, however, a re- petition took place, one would im mediately suppress such conduct.

Blew My Whistle..".

There are numerous incidents Standing on the halfway line was which may all be treated under this one of my linesmen, and he, being point of law, and only recently I in an excellent position, as request was asked by a Daily Express ed, immediately signalled to me, reader for my opinion on an in- with the result that I blew my cident which is said to have ocecur- whistle. His decision was not apred, but which I can scarcely im- proved in the manner it should agine happening have been, but he was, perfectly hunest, as well as being quick.

A somewhat similar incident oc curred in a match played recently, where once again the conditions of the ground were not conducive to The ball was quick movement. kicked up the field from a hot move ment in the goalmouth, and reach ed the centre-forward. He was quite in play, and proceeded to wards the opponent's goal, where he bent the back and took a long shot. The ball hit the crossbar, bounced to the ground, was caught by the goalkeeper, who had turned round for it, and was then kicked

out.

The whole movement was so rapid that I could not get into position to give a decided judgment whether the ball had been over the line Here, once again, my linesman was able to assist.

A player sho: for goal. The ball was entering the top corner of the net, and the goalkeeper, not being able to reach it, flung his hat at it and deflected it over the bar. Law

grants the referee power to award a goal if, in his opinion, the bail would have passed under the bar if it had not been displaced. There is, however, no mention of any act of this nature.

Ungentlemanly Conduct.

There is only one line of action which the referee could take with the utmost confidence, and that would be concerning the action of the goalkeeper in such a case as this, and its relation to ungentle- manly conduct.

Strange to say, shortly after: wards there was put before me the case of a goalkeeper, who, realising that a player was about to shoot for goal, threw his cap at the hall, and, it is stated, caused the player to miss an open goal.
