The tries ior Mr Thomson's side were secured by Mr. 0. HalcomVe and the worthy captain, which were converted into goaj^s by the hitter. Mr Belfit securea^he. try for the defeated team, which r Mf Gurney converted into a goal; We' take this opportunity of informing the members that if they do not turn up to practice they cannot expect to be victorious in their matches.
