Totals: Bideford, 6; Riverside, 20. In congratulating the Riverside Club on regaining the’eup, Mr C. Percy suggested that in order to keep the interest in the cup alive no club should hold it for more than one year but should then travel with it. In that way any match played between those clubs, i.e., Riverside, Mahunga and Bideford would be played with the cup at stake and therefore foster interest in the competition. Mr W. Palamontain, in responding to Mr Percy, concurred and congratulated his team on its play. He hoped that all matches would be played in the same friendly spirit in which this game and all games between the two clubs had been played.
