New York Defeats Erie A.A. by III
Eliminating Jerseymen from us.
F.A. Seeker Competition.

New York moved closer to tho national
socKer championship than this city has
been in a long time when the eleven of
the New York Football Club eliminated
the dangerous team of the Erie Athletic
Association, of Newark. by the score of
goals to l at Olympic Field yesterday
and qualified for the fourth round of the
United States Football Associations an
nual cup tie. The field was in splendid
condltlon and two fine teams played to q
capacity audience, despite the freezing
weather. The game practically was a
repetition of their first encounter, for
after ninety minutes of play, the score was
even at IL. Extra periods OF fifteen min
utes each way were required to settle the
question or supremacy. and Edwards, OF
New York, shot the winning goal right
after the opening of the first OF these
periods.
For half an hour the rival teams battled
fiercely to gain the upper hand. but the
Jerseymen, to the delight of big crowd
Of rooters from over the Hudson. set the
pace by being the first to score, when
Brierley, taking a pass from Knowles
found New York'S net The half ended
with the visitors leading by 10.
Soon after the re-start bit of good for.
tune befell New York. when O'Halloran
sent in a hard drive, which Ford, OF the
Fries, stopped with his arm. Referee
Scnolcfield blew the wristle for penalty
which Full Back Kelly was successful in
converting. 1t was TO this penalty that
the New Workers owed their subsequent
opportunity to win out.
At full time tire two teams were on even
terms and without delay start was made
on the extra periods. Almost ON the first
rush Edwards and Hunziker worked down
the ball and Edwards selling the chance
for an opening, shot the goal that put the
Fries out of the running.
