INGLEWOOD. I These teams met on the Recreation Ground yesterday Wore a .fair crowd of spectators. The gate should hafe been much larger, ho.we-ver, considering the takings were devoted to the memorial ai one who did so much for Now j Zealand Taranaki football—the late JU'. Alfred Bayly. Tilic match was) not an interesting "one to watch, consisting prinKpallv of scrambles, and for the lirst hour of the game, of ineffective | rushes. Thereafter, however, Inglewood went to pieces, and individual Star backs, well shielded by their forwards, were enabled to run up a considerable score. Nothing daunts the Inglewood men, however, who never seem to lose heart, and certainly deserve better luck. Exchanges of kicks and scrambling play marked the opening stages, Star eventually gaining the ascendancy. Grant almost passed tilie reds' full-back, and then Whitakcr missed a good chance of a mark in front of the goal. After another feinting run iby Grant Inglewood cleared, but Hawkins broke away from a line-out, and again play settled in the reds' do. A penalty brought relief to near half-way, where Clow was given a chot, at goal from a mark by Hill. The attempt wa»' poor. Star forwardskept up an attack and gave their backs several opportunities to get going, but erratic passing, Whitaker being the principal delinquent, spoilt several likely chances, l'ikt had n shot at goal, tie lull going wide, and then, from n line:put, ,I'ikc secured, -sent the ball to Ryan, the latter transferring to Bolton, who scored. No goal resulted. Star 3, Inglewood 0. A long scramble near the neds' line followed the renewal nf play, a force only resulting. Loos'e play mic'llicld followed, tiil Ryan, Grant and Hill set up a. good attack. Bolton missing his pass at the critical moment. A penalty enabled Inglewood to change the venue, and for a time hard but aimless play fallowed in Star's territory. /\V. Brown, who was playing a keen gam* for Inglewood, was disabled at this stage from a knock on his jaw received ia a fall, Pike raised the siege, and Hill made a good but ineffectual ••pot" at goal. Inglewood replied with a hard rush, and Kennedy arid F. Brown carried play close to the blacks' line, where play hung for a few moments before half time- sounded. Star opened the second spell with a strong attack, Hill narrowly missing a try. Pike lost a chance on the other wing a momeat later. Then from a, mark, he kicked across the field, Bolton securing and sending to Grant, who threw himself over ttie line. Clow .kicked a good goal. Star 8, Inglewood 0. Inglewood retaliated and kopt Star 011 the defence for s'oiue time, til! a penalty enabled them to clear their lines. Setting ,i;i a dribbling rush Star swept down the field, a force resulting. Neutral play followed, but Inglewood tired under pressure, and from a rush 11 van crossed hut kwt the ball, ami the reds foiwd. I'ikr made siyeral dashes, hut, being unsupported, was smothered. Hill had another pot, Inglewood forcing. Following the kick-out Brown secured irom a scrum and whipped out to iVbitakc.', who .feinted across. No goal. Star 11, Inglewood 0. Back came t'lie blacks, and Grant received a nicely-timed .pass from Brawn, galloped round the defenders and scored behind the posts. Again no goal. Star 14. Inglewood 11.

The pace eased off for a while, and line-work and scrums succeeded each other without cither side gaining ground. From a line-out, the home boys put in a dashing rush, which JlcAllum and Jiynott stemmed, and breaking back, toi»k the 'leather to midfield. Here Eltham were awarded a free kick and J. W.

STRATFORD v. CUFTOX. The meeting of the Stratford ami Clifton senior fifteens at Stratford yesterday drew a fairly ],uge attendance of the public, who looked forward t 0 a vigorous exposition of the national «amp The teams had met before, but on"that occasion there was no o core. That match was played on a wet ground, when the Stratford backs found the goin* not favorable. Yesterday the field was dry, and the weather capital for football, although on the cool side for the spectators. Tile forwards comprised, perhaps, the two heaviest sets in the division and were very evenly matched. But the home backs were imincnselv superior, and accounted for the defeat of the Clifton team by 15 points to 4. The ' game was not' an interesting om> to watch. It was a bard, willing tussle, but there was no rough play in evidence, although one of the home forwards was under tile referee's ey c for "sailing close to the wind" in the mutter of roughness. 11 r. F. Spurdle refereed: Owing In some delay in commencing the match, it was almost dark I when the whistle sounded " no side." i Stratford kicked off, and Hicks failed to take it. the reds forcing the plav| right on to the line. Schnlelicld received a nasty kick in tin. knee, the effects of which were for some time observable. Clifton was forced in less than a minute of the kick-on", Hcsuiuing, Cain made a poor kick, and from the return tn» greens forced again. The next attempt to open the game was better. |''rom 11 scrum, Cameron got the ball and se it to Klrkwood, uho was pushed out, Clifton forwards relieved the position a little by bursting from a scrum, but Fearon returned to the 25 and touch. Now followed the bill'-bang of the meeting of two evenly matched teams of heavy forwards, including a series of scrums, honors being shared. A long line-out near Clifton's lilic gave the ball to Pukere, who transferred to J}. lieorge, and a ishort run placed Clifton for the first time over the half-way line, utter about fifteen minutes' play, but Smith, at the head of a dribbling rush, brought them back. Jlullot, who was Having a queer game, rushing into a scrum with the ball, at length opened out, but held too long, and Cameron was forced out. Clifton's tackling was too high, and consequently weak. Jlullot made another opening from a scrum, hut again hung too long to the ball, and at length threw it forward to Dixon, and u line scoring chance was missed. Then Pukere came through again, and a free kick improved the advantage he made. Crowley passed out to (ieorge, who gave' it to .-(Vholetield, and a long kick lorred Stratford. Clifton .cam,, again, and a series of line-outs kept them up in Stratford end. A mark from the throwin occurred, and S. George ■made a poor shot at goal. Here followed a peculiar incident. 1). (ieorge look the ball from a forward rush, mid kicked, tile hull rebounding'from .Marchant. The Stratford forward, joined by flradley. charged right over the line, bill J), (ieorge was in time and forced. After souk; uneventful rushes, Scholelield marked, and kicked to the line. Stratford threw m too smartly for the line umpire, whose Hag remained up. but he was overruled, llarchanl. was proving a thorn in the side of Clifton, repeatedly breaking clean through the scrum, ii.ui getting in a lot of oil-side play. In the close work he found hot opposition in De lilois. Don Cameron got the ball and kicked high to the posts, where Melville scored i try, although distinctly oll'-side when he fan to plav the ball. Cameron's shot at goal was a failure. Stratford it, Clifton (I. A passing rush, in which seven or eight of the reds took part, was stayed bv I), (ieorge near the line, and oll'side 'play by the attackers brought relief. A'minute or two went bv whilst the backs of each side tried to'find the line, and then Fearon ,onnd it inadvertently: The only things worth mentioning in the next few minutes' plav were the splendid rush-stopping of Crowley, and the solid work of De Mlois on the Clifton side, also the working of the touchlines by the red backs. Clifton slowly assumed the supremacy, but presently Cameron got an opening, and ran. kicking short, over the head of the man who tackled him. A free kick was given I against Clifton for a breach of the olfi side rule, and Cameron kicked a. good goal. Stratford li. Clifton (I. Bradley plaviiii; oll'-side jinve Hie visitors a scrum near the red's line. The ball went out. From the line-oui hikciv caught the ball, passed it to D. ( iconic, and lie sent it on in Seholellelil. who polled a beautiful goal just al half-time. The first spell ended: SI rat ford li. Clifton -t. After the snell Tucker at IhreeUiiarier and Dixon at live-eight exchanged places, and Stratford's back plav'showed a lit lie uuiiv organisation as a result. The second moiety opened uninlereslinglv, Strafford's forwards he-: iu« frequcnflv penalised for oll'-side. Thev were having much the belter of| the'game, and the visitors played the defensive, Kggleston relieving by a smart j

run from under the posts and a kick , out. Cameron sent tij, a long kick to' George at full, but he niiaseu- ilie catch.! Touch-iu-goal resulted. S. GeorgV made; it serious mistake by making a rebound, | and Stratford got right up to the line, j Dixon playing in the van. A lot of loose scrambling play resulted near the posts, and it svemed the home ten in must score. It was only a matter ot time, and it was not long before Hullot sent the ball out to Cameron from a scrum, lie sent out a difficult pass to Dixon, who secured overhead and dived, scoring. His kick at goal failed. Stratford !), Clifton 4. Be Blois, Pukere aim Cain headed a dangerous rush right downfield, and the forwards backed up well. S. George tried at goal from a penalty, but missed, dust afterwards Fearoii forced from an attempt by .Scholeliehl to pot. Crowley, bustled at the back of a scrum, kicked behind him. Bonner cut away with the ball like n streak, and centred. Cameron followed up, and passed to Kirkwood, who scored. The kick at goal failed. Stratford 12, Clifton 4. Stratford was now playing a great attacking game in lioth forward and back divisions. Bonner took the ball at toe tn the line, and Crowley was fortunate in forcing. Cameron chased a loii" kick, hut arrived on th" ball a second too late. Clifton forced again. With the exception of some few rattliii" rushes by Cain and De Blois, CMton'wero now'kept penned in their own end of the field. In the dusk it was observed that a red forward crossed the line, and enquiries elicited the fact that Melville scored. Ciinierons kick - fulled. The game ended shortly afterwards.with the score at IS to 4 ill favor of Stratford, and these figures may be taken as show-in'" the relative merits of the teams. For flie winners l'cion was, as usual, "safe as a church" at full lmt'k, and 1 Cameron and Kirkwood played fine fames o'i the three-quarter line. Hullot,, at half did some useful work, but was inclined to hug the ball, instead of feed-1 in«- the fliers in the lino behind him. Of the forwards Bonner, Kivell, Jtarchant, JMvillc and Smith were always prominent, but Jlarehanl was a terrible offender against the nflV.de rule.. Clifton's rearguard was its weak point S. ■ Georw. at full, was quite unreliable, and ' Seholefield was the only threequarter who was sound on the defence, althom'h Fuller (promoted from the thirds to the day) did some serviceable work. Crowley showed himself to le full of pluck, stemming Stratford s l.eavv forward rushes in surprising style. He was also useful behind the scrum. D George plawd a patchy game at fivc-ci'-hths. De Blois and Cain were the bpst of the forwards, and on the toy nerhaiis the former was the best on the ground. Although not always prominent he was doing a lot of work that only his colleagues and the close observers gave him credit for. Pukere and Lovcridge were the next best.

A very evenly contested ;rame was witnessed at Slml-ford yesfcrdnv liefvvecn New I'lvmoutli and Stratford. If anytime, the Skalford eleven wore sligh'tly hellev.. n,< tire score indicates.

The stuborn defence of the Stratford backs accounted for their victory. Although the Xo»- Plymouth forward rank was good ill its combination and -attack the Stratford hacks did good work, ami stood up gamely ag.ii.Nt the several at-ta't-ks from the .New Plymouth front rank. The game was very fast, and it was in I'lio open where Stratford shone. In the close play New Plymouth had much of their own way, am. lime after time the ball was tuScR up the field, but without avail. The game was very willing toward the flninh. The New Plymouth eleven were striving hard to equalise, and had very hard luck in not so doing. The rougili state of the ground militated against really good football, and on a good ground these teams would be Seen to better advantage. Of individual players, CoMingwood, of Stratford, proved himself to be a. good man in tllie back division. Urqitart, his partner, .played more of the "marking the man" game, but on the whole they were not a, bad pair of backs, Of the Xew 'Plymouth side the left wing shone out brilliantly, and good coii'ibination was shown between (William and FJlliott. The New Plymouth back division has got n bad habit of kicking too bard, and often times the forwards could have been .fed to good advantage. Bassctt and Butcher scored for Stratford and Lister for New Plymouth. Jlr. S. Clark controlled the game.
