CHRISTCHURCH FOOTBALL.
(By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.)
CHRISTCHURCH, this day.
The ground was in fair condition for the senior football matches on Saturday, but the cold easterly wind made it very uncomfortable for players and spectators alikp The Albion-Old Boys game resulted in a win for Albion by 12 points to nil, 9 points being registered in the second spell. Linwoo'd defeated Merivale by 13 points to nil, after a somewhat tame and uninteresting game. Christchurch easily defeated Canterbury College by 35 points to 8. The attendance was very fair. TCleven matches have now been played in the senior competition, and the championship points are: Albion 10. Sydenham Si, Linwood 8-i, Christchurch 7, Merivale 3s, Old Boys 3, Canterbury College 3, Lyrtelton i.
