Work-A Small Crowd.

Iolani United and the Scots, wrestl
ed for the supremacy on the football
! field at Punahou yesterday afternoon
! The game was close and exacting ne
ing replete with close rallies and ex-
ceIlent passing. Goudie and Fiddess
were the shining ngu.s of the High
lands. shooting two goals apiece.
Morse, for Iolani, played by long odds
the star game of the day. shooting two
goals unassisted and one more after
clever passing with Biackman- The
team work on both sides was notice
ably poor. but occasionally the Scots
liyened up in first class manner.
The Hoot Mons were the first to ap-
ply their Tribes to the ball. and i'm
mediately carried the ball far into
Iolanis territory. A close rally about
the goal followed, but after some good
blocking and passing by botI sides, IT
resulted in corner. On &c kick ont,
the Iolani's braced and soon the
sphere was far down among the High
lands Another corner was made and
the Scots began to pass the bali back
towards their opponents goal line.
This performance was repeated three
or four times until finally after hot
scrap in front of the Iolanian goal,
Goudie shot it straight between the
bars.
Iolani however was not to be out
done in the goal kicking line, for
Morse got his foot connected with the
ball and carried it the length of the
field unassisted, ending up his little
trick by shooting most difficult goal.
Score. Scots |. Eolani I.
For the next few minutes the Scots
kept their opponents hustling within
their own territory. The Iolarl
blocked well however. so that the
Scots were quite a time at shooting
the next goal Kentwell. for Iolani.
was always in the way of possible
goal and his goodly right foot kept
the Hoot Mons on the move. After
a close exchange, Goudie applied his
pedal extremity to the sphere and
the suspense was temporarily over.
Score. Scots 2. Iolani L.
Without waiting for wind the Scots
started to rush matters in hurricane
style. The hurricane was too much
for the Iolani's for the third goal was
shot in little while. The remainder
of the half was spent in carrying the
ball back and forth across the field,
and if anything the Scots were a trifle
worsted in the encounter. No further
score was made during the half.
Score. Scots 3, Iolani l.
Iolani started proceedings in the
last half The ball made but short
inroad into the land of the Scots for
the bonnie lads of the thistle started
with the idea of wiping the last YES
tige of Iolaniism off the earth. They
drove the bail far down into the To-
lani land, and kept the men in red on
the jump. They were always there
just on time however, as they blocked
shoot after shoot Kentwell and
Blackman were particularly in evil
dence. breaking up pass after pass in
a clever manner, and booting the ball
out of danger. McGill's noble sky
piece was always under the ball when
ii descended from an aerial flight
with the result that ii always came
bounding back towards the danger
point After some considerable trou-
BILE the ball suddenly shot out from a
bunch and crossed the line. 1t is be-
lieved the Fiddess furnished the mo-
tive power for the goal.
Score. Scots 1, Iolani l.
The Scots were not satisfied with |
their increase of score, but made an
other furious onslaught upon the To-
lani aggregation. Some hot work now |
followed Several pairs of players |
hit the ground and tumbled about /
greatly to the amusement of the spec |
tators Morse finally got one of his /
connections with the 1
ball and started on a trip across the
field. When the smoke cleared, the (.
score stood, Scots 4, Iolani 2.
The Scots avenged this goal in
short order for they rushed things SC.
that Fiddess shot the next goal qAica-
ly.
Score. Scots 5, Ioiani 2.
