NEW LEAGUES RULES
Right Wings Comments on the
favorite Game Of Athletic
Englishmen.

The match en- Christmas Day be-
tween Scotland and the Icarus crew |
drew the largest crowd to Makiki that
has yet attended the Association game. T
The play throughout was very fast and
of highly interesting character, re- !
sultingi in a victory for the sailors by !
two goals to one.
This afternoon the Icarus team is
pitted against the full strength of Ho-
nolulu. The town eleven We're selected
at meeting of the Hawaiian Associa-
| tion Football League on Wednesday
and are as follows:
Forwards, Smithies, Bottomley, Da-
vies, Blackman, NJ. Andersen; halves
ID. Andersen, Stokes, Parish; backs, So
per, McGill; goal, Fenwick.
| Mr.. Cockburn was appointed referee
land Mr.. Fiddes linesman.
| General satisfaction has been eX-
lpressed upon the above team, which is
probably fully representative of the
League Although there may be play
ers as capable as some OF the above,
the great aim which was kept in sight
while selecting the team was to put in
the field the strongest possible combi-
nation and at the same time to make
the eleven as representative of the va
lIiouS teams as possible.
In the case, therefore, of two players
of equal merit choice was given to the
one whose club had the smaller num-
ber of members taking part in the
match.
We are glad to see Bottomley among
the forwards. He plays with plenty OF
determination and possesses that dash
L which is needed in a forward. The at
tack of both the English and Scottish
teams at present is not nearly aggreSS-
i've enough to play an effective game
n The five forwards who play today,
however, all possess persistency, and
their attack is expected to prove equal
}, to the occasion.
The ball which is to be used this aft
0 ernoon has been provided by the gener-
osity of the Hon. w. r. Hoare.
A The series of contests which is to de-
lcide the local championship of the AS.
sociation Clubs begins next Saturday
1.-THE first match down for decision /:
England VS.. Scotland, and a very ever

ing nets for the goals, but it is hoped
a that everything will be ready by th'
- first League match.
