THE PEACE CUP. A Hard Game. Hamilton Retains Trophy. The fifth Peace Cup match of the season was played at Hamilton before a large attendance on Saturday, between Hamilton (holders) and Cambridge. The ground was very hard and consequently three parts of the game was fast. Hamilton won by 21 points to 3, but the score in no way indicates the game. Had Cambridge possessed a decent goalkicker they would have scored enough points early in the game to have made a material difference in the ultimate result. The challenging forwards played great football. For three parts of the game they had the Hamilton backs disconcerted, but directly the forwards were affected by the pace the home back division came into operation and found weaknesses in the Cambridge defence.
