" The Wanderers are beginning 20 sho%
up In the old form sgsIu, remarked wit
ness of the game Saturday afternoon. 1t
is q fact, the Pswtucket boys are playing
the old tine game, and in few more
weeks will be as invincible as they have
been 10 the past.
Saturday was good day for the game,
aud every man Was on bic mettle and stepped
into the field with The intention of winning,
The Wanderers tried two new players
McLugg,ge and Smith, and they did very
well. bat their real value cannot be deter.
mined until a stronger team is met.
Little Davis dill not play Saturday and
he was missed by the spectators although
his plsce was very scseptably filed. His
sharp plsying has won the admiration of all
the regular attend.nts. Fagsn, Mccain
and Mcconnell showed up well, as usual,
and all the boys seemed to be having their
day on.
Their opponents, the Providence Metro
poles, made their first appetrince ia this
city Saturday, and 1t csDno: be said that
Pawtucket people are very much "struct'
on their style of playing. They need an i'm.
mense amount of practice to get themselves
in the same class with the Wsnderers.
Their style of playing will never win a
game for them against such teams as the
Pawtuckets or Fall Rvers. Each man
seemed to play an individual game. There
was no good passing; it was every man fer
himself and they got nowhere.
While they were putting the heather
through oncs the Wanderers had "got
there" seven times without over-exer:ing
Themselves, and it was plain TO all that the
Metropolis were outmatched.
The makeup of the team, was as fol.
lows:
Warderers: Goal, AlJenkins; full backs,
Stewart aad Reed; half backs, Mcconnell,
McLiggage and Finn; right, Mccain and
Fagsp; left wing, Smith and ONeil; cen
ter, S. Jenkins; umpire, Clark.
Metropolis Goal, Mcfarland; full
backs, Mlirehend IN, Powyer; half backs,
BtOwn, JDhnson anl Craze; right wing
Helourn sni Smith; left wing, MUIR
and Fields; centre, Ws!ket; Douglas, nm.
pire; Cook, referee.
The Metropolis wol the toss aud kicked
down the scps when the whistle blew for
the fun 10 begin. The ball had not got far
into the Wanderers territory b2fore it was
run up the field AMI in dangerous pr0xin-
ity to the Nets goal. Some sharp pss,ing
fo'llred aud in very few minutes the
frst goal of the gam, was scared by Faga7,
who sen: it through Ike a rocket.
Pay was resumed and Mccain seemed
to be trying 20 keep upto Fagan'J rccDr!
and sent the leather between II, sticks for
goal No.2
8 jenkins then g5t IA. sphere and
chased IL down the field at s lively rate
into the Providercs territory snl throug
the goal in less tim, than Il takes u cell it
Tai g then began TO lolt one sided art
the Nets ssw they must d something, aud
for a short tims made thiags quite lively,
bat McC,nn was hungry for goals ard
again shot tn sphere through.
Jenkias was not to be outdone and just
before the whistle blew for half time lie
scored goal No 8, aud the record vas 3 to
0 in favor of Pawtucket.
When play was resumed the Nets were
desperate and made every p5isible effort TO
score, but 1t was no use. FaRan was the
first to score, and was followed soon after
by Smith.
There was no need of any more goals but
jenkins was ia the game for business and
kept the ball rolling AMI finally rolled i,
between the posts.
The Nets then made tpurt AMI by some
very sharp playing Murray scored th. Only
Rosi that etsnds to their credit.
Playing now began to be only matter Of
form. The Nets could not tcore and the
Wanderers did not care TO, but as gentle
reminder tha, the Pavtuckets we're sill
alive, Mccain hustled the leather through
once more and when the whistle blew at the
fiai.h the score was 0 to in favor OF the
Wanderers
1t was an easy victory but another mark
may be tut down for Pswtucket With the
assurance or others to follow.
