Lee Wal-long netting three times and Baxter Gosano and Talbot once, obtained the Rest's goal-a very nice effort with the Colony defence caught napping somewhere up towards the halfway line.

Talbot put the Colony further ahead after the restart and Ward replied for the Rent. But Leonard, who had been atriving hard for a gool and had twice been thwarted by Rowlands who made wonderful saves, at last got his opportunity and, cutting past the on- position, crushed the ball into the roof of the net..
