Juniors.
Captain - V. B. Willis.
Vice-Captain - S. Eichelbaum.

V. C. v Y. M. C. A. Adjourned sine die, owing to ground being under water. A scratch game was played, notable only for a general "tired feeling."

V. C. v Karori. Won, 4—1. Played in pouring rain and a sea of mud. Paterson (2), Duncan and Sargent scored. The last-named, together with Niven, Matthews and Castle deserve special mention, but Castle should learn to use his hands.

V. C. v Hutt. Won, 3—1. Weather, good: ground, a horse paddock. Willis (2) and Wilkie scored. Eichelbaum very safe. The team was much encouraged by the presence of Professor von Zedlitz amongst a group of excited spectators.

III A.
Captain - R. Mason.

Table

V. C. v Thorndon B. Drawn, 1 all. A dreary, uninteresting game. We attacked all the first spell but could not shoot effectively. Matters were even in the second spell. R. Mason scored. We should have won easily.

III B
Captain - J. Christie.

V. C. v Wellington. Won, 9—4. Broad (5), Coombes (2), Rigg, and Trethy scored. Forwards played splendidlt.

V. C. v United. Won, 2—1. Rigg scored. Played under somewhat adverse circumstances: wind, rain, hail, sleet, snow—singly and in various combinations.
