Tinwald A, at Tinwald. Rakaia won by forfeit from Tinwald B. Ashburton Ladies put up a splondid game against Hinds notwithstanding the serious handicap of playing nine instead of 11 players; in fact, tlie game was much in Ashburton’s favour, and it was only due to the superior goal shooting by Hinds that the latter was able To. gain premier place. Ashburton is a greatly improved team. Hinds won by five goals to nil. Miss M. Fulton was the only scorer for Hinds. Mr H. Millichamp was referee. High School v Tinwald A match was witnessed by a good number of spectators. The game was decidedly an favour of School throughout.
