JOSEPH'S BY ODD GOAL IN THREE: R.A.'s WIN
The Football League has its shortest programme on Saturday when only one match was played in the Senior Division in which AUDDLESEX defeated ST. JOSEPH'S by the odd goal in three.
The game was, on the whole, rather dull though there were mo- ments of sparkling football when both teams were seen in some good movements. The Saints' attack, with MacDonald well looked after by end Bright, lacked punch but livened up somewhat towards the when Hussain assumed leadership.
As the result of changes in the Middlesex line-up their front line was also not as impressive as usual but their defence proved just too strong for the Saints for whom Hussain and D. Leonard 'defended stoutly.
