A RATTLlNG
SOCKER GAME
Last Practice of Association Ball
Before the Great War
spite Game.

Tho game of association football be-
tween the Ironworkers and the RoVers
at Makiki on Saturday proved very in
teresting and was thoroughly enjoyed by
the small crowd present The weather
was beautiful--if anything, a little TOO
warm for the "socker" game.
! The teams lined up promptly at 4:So
and were as follows:
Ironworkers-Fenw r. Anderson,
Craik, Cumming, Wilson. Soper, Munro,
Kay, Boyle, Goudie Cation.
| Rovers-Allan McGil, d. w. Ander-
son, Blackman, Bottomley, Sinclair,
Guild Cockburn, Morse, Irvine, Fiddes.
Mr.. George Davies officiated as ref
cree and gave entire satisfaction. Mr..
r. A. Jordan acted as touch judge.
The ronworkers won the toss and
chose to defend the Beretania goal.
Morse started the bah for the Rovers,
who had to contend with the glazing
sun. which in a great way accounted for
their disjointed efforts during the first
half 1t was practically a case of the
team winning the toss winning the
match, as the odds were in favor of
the lucky captain.
The play during the first half was
SLOW, neither SlOc SilOWIuS ~ dhN ola Ia
and the half-tNue score was 20 in favor
of the "Nulcanites.'
On the resumption of hostilities the
RoYers began to wake UP, and improV-
| ed combination oy the front rank for
q time made things lively, but they fail
ed to score. Boyle and Goudie were
going strongly and both added goals for
their team. Things looked pretty dark
for the Rovers after the fifth goal was
scored, and the chances of victory We're
quickly vanishing.
Not to be denied. however, they again
| resumed the attack, a great run by F'id-
DIES resulted in Morse drawing first
blood for the Rovers. Two more goals
We're quickly added, which evencd mat
| tiers up a little. The remaining Play
was brisk and lively and the final re-
suit was: Ironworkers, 5; Rovers, g.
The Ironworkers deserved their win,
being the better combination. For the
! Ironworkers, Fenwick Boyle, Goudic,
Kay, Munro and Soper all played well.
Munro opened the scoring for the Iron
workers, and played brilliantly at times
| His goal was the result of a pleasing bit
| Of play and throughout he played one of
his best games this season. Boyle and
| Goudie are second to none IN Honolulu
| in their respective positions. and thor
| oughly deserve the honor con*errnd On
them by Being chosen to uphold the rep

For the 2oyers Guild, Morse. F'hl5es,
Blackmln ard Bottomly all 3trove nard
to avert defeat and deserve great credit
for their exhibition. With a little prac-
tice together the Rovers should be able
to place a more effective team in the
field. Their combination on Saturday
was feeble and disjointed as compared
with that of their opponents.
Blackman time and again was instru-
mental in stopping dangerous runs by
his opponents, and his play is very pref
ty and finished. Bottomly's goal was
feature of the match. The little fellow
has lots of grit and Is an ideal center
half. McGill and D. W. Anderson both
played well and are not to blame for
the result. Allan, in goal, did some
smart work, and with a little practice
would prove a valuable acquisition to
any team. Sinclair was here there and
all over and played his usual busting
game. He worked hard and lasts well,
and is hard man to beat.
The efforts of the Rover forwards were
mainly individual ones, Morse and Fid-
des being conspicuous, the latter put
ting in some good runs and never falling
to center at the right time.
Cockburn and Guild were both a little
under FORM but nevertheless played
well and did some clever work at times.
Irvine has been seen to better advan-
tage. 80
