III A Matches

III A Matches.

V. C. v St. Patrick's College. Lost, 18—0. We played short. Their extra man was too good, though we played well—while condition lasted.

V. C. v Wellington College. Lost, 5—3. Forwards in great nick—backs outclassed. T. Moore scored and divided the honours of efficiency with Lyon and H. Thompson.

V. C. v Kia Ora. Won, 6—3. Hard but ragged game. McDonald and Mitchell scored. R. Enting at half was good, but other backs were starved by the five-eighth. Talk very abundant.

V. C. v St. James. Lost, 9—8. One short again—Brockett snared by Juniors. Played two five-eighth game very successfully. Lyon scored a try, converted by Enting, and, just on the call of time, O. J. Reid secured another, unconverted, after a splendid piece of combined play.

V. C. v Selwyn. Lost, 15—0. High hopes after last match, but matter ended there. McDonald, forward, and King and Richmond, backs, did most to stem the tide.
