Team III A.

(Captain, A. J. Benge).

Games played, 12; won, 9; drawn, 1; lost, 2. Goals, 46; against, 9. The tam was runner-up for the championship, and was the only one that defeated the champions, Karori.

V. C. v. Thorndon. Won 2—0. The game, played in Lower Hutt mud, was not particularly fast.

V. C. v. Wellington. Draw 1—1. Another mud-fight: Martin, in the full-back line, was in element.

V. C. v. Y.M.C.A. Won 3—1. College did not get properly to work until the second spell.

V. C. v. Wellington. Lost 1—3. The first reverse; the opponents' wing men caused trouble, and, with the exception of Smith, our men scarcely reached their usual form.

V. C. v. V.C. IIIb. Won by default.

V. C. v. United. Won 2—1. The muddy state of the "circle" made shooting very difficult. Stewart played a fine half game, and Mason, at goal, saved very well.

V. C. v. Karori. Lost 1—3. College played a good game, but our forward combination was upset by the "four-half" tactics of the enemy. The score against us was made in the last ten minutes.

V. C. v. Thorndon. Won 4—1. A forward game, won rather easily. Macmoran did good work on the right wing.

V. C. v. Y.M.C.A. Won 12—0. A very one-sided game, being largely a bombardment of the enemy's goal by our forwards.
