It would have been little short of tragedy if the ground mist which threatened visibility had hidden the course of this most axciting game, in which each nde scored a goal and 3 tries.

The game opened up with play mostly in midfeld until Waseda made a combined rush through the Argonautas defence, but Yone- maru missed an open goal badly. A few minutes later, L. Gosano and Nolasco changed positions and this brought fruit immediately as the former sent in a pass. Onizuka failed to clear well and during the ensuing scrimmage NolasCO JUC- ceeded in tapping the ball past the goalkeeper to open the scoring.

Another attack by the Ar- gonautas found Angelo converting from a pass from the right-wing. Waseda at this stage pressed strongly on the Argonautas drea and following a tussle in the cir
