The second half was a differ- ent story: The Club played well! enough until Wylie obtained the Somersets third goal, but there after they were out of the picture. Wylie also obtained the fourth, a long shot almost from the wing, Rodger misjudging it badly. He atoned for his error by some bril- liant saves subsequently, but he had до possible chance when Knapp and Bewley-Bull were allowed free kicks from close range the defence meanwhile appealing for offside.
Up to the time of the third goal, the Club defence had appeared sound enough, though it had been sorely harassed by an attack which raided with exceptional keenness and which definitely had its shooting boots on. Rarely have I seen the Somersets so deadly with their shooting. The Club goal was subjected to a heavy bombardment from which Rodger emerged with the greatest credit, despite his one error.
If there was a real defensive weakness it was at half-back. Duncan was run off his feet by Baker and Rayson, whose speed also caused a good deal of worry to Bishop. The back, however, used judgment in his tackling which Andy appears to have for- gotten. Neither was McBride at his best, even before his injury. Stewart weathered the storm with far more success, N
The forwards promised well but fell away. Segalen did well up to a point. His deft footwork carried him through the several Somersete defence on occasions, while his nicely judged passes to Wallington and Goldman
