STIRRING CLUB GAMES. • j COLLEGE RIFLSS GO DOWN. j I "TARSITY HARD PUSHED B\ GRAFTOX. ' PONSONBY TOO FAST FOR MARISTS. The club games on Saturday were played on grounds that were somewhat on the heavy side, and at Eden Park. before an attendance that was large despite the strong counter-attraction of the racee, College Rifles and Grammar provided a close and exciting game in which Grammar, being three pointe down at half-time, opened up in the second spell to turn the tables and make a win of it by 9 to 3. An almost similar volte face o'ecurred in the Grafton-'Varsity game, the students getting eight points on before their opponents opened their score, and then being hard put to it to avert defeat. In the secona epell Gralton drew level, but University eventually mlled the game off by 11 to 8. The fast and clever play of Ponsonby at the Show Grounds was too pacey for Marist Old Boys, and last year'e champions won by 23 to 6. A sensation of the game was the ordering off of two Ponsonby players late in the second spell, one being F. Lucas, the Ponsoiiby captain, for a remark to the referee. RIFLES' WATERLOO. With a slight breeze and a bright sun behind them, College Miles (blue) were early on attack, bat were unable to develop anything dangerous till a long k >unt by Sheen had Badeley in trouble, and he had to kick behind to save. Hutchison had the bast of a kicking duel with Uiilespie, getting Grammar to a good position. In footwork and dribbling Grammar opened out, and a nice bout saw Mouteitli grassed near the line. Again they gave it a go, and Williams went down just short 'of. the goal-line.- A mark of Sheen j.nd then a free against Grammar, shifted thu game to the other end. A nice bout by Gillespie. Sheen, Francis and Duckwortu had Grammar on defence, and from just outside the twenty-nve Sheen made a tricky run to score a solo try, which Wilson failed to convert. Another try seemed certain a little later'when Mitchell made an opening, but a wild pass to Spenceley on the line spoilt the chance and Grammar cleared. When they turned round Grammar threatened as the result of a shortside dash by Singleton and Gardiner, Gillespie just saving. Noakes was prominent in effecting a clearance, but a free let Grammar back, but the solid front line play of the blues and faulty handling by the Grammar",backs kept the whites from developing their attack. Play was solid, but lacking- sparkle, which came ■ only in occasional two-handed passes by the blues. Then the crowd came to their feet as Williams made a spectacular dash .to send Gopdacre. and Monteith away, for.the latter to be downed , near the line, and his forwards to take the baU over, but then lose the touch, Rifies forcing. Once again the blues were lucky, as Gillespie lost'-'and recovered the ball in the teeth of the opposing forwards, to get a clearing kick In. ■With the Rifles on attack, an intercept by Goodaere sent t-he game back to the blue line, but-Fogarty returned It in a fine dribbling effort. Just as the bell sounded the bines came away with a passing bout In which Spenceley was thrown to touch near Grammar's line. The second spell opened at a very; fast bat. Grammar throwing the ball about from all angles. They kept, the blues ' down to defence, and only > a knock-on saved the Rifles, when Goodaere got the ball at the line. Again the whites'came, and" dribbled on when stopped, and Kirk was first to the ball over the line.*, Twice Gardener and Hutchison were stopped wHen nearly through, and generally the Blsea' three-point lead looked like going west. Comes was next to be bumped over at the line, and then Gillespie was penalised ior hanging to the ball, and Hutchison missed a shot At easy range. At last a dash by Sheen and Mitchell lifted the siege, and with mingled dribbling and handling the blues took their turn on attack. It wes shortlived, for Grammar in another spasm of handling- and footwork went !tq>. :the Rifles' line, where Peacock was wildly stopped. The blue forwards cleared; the whites countered, and again the blues cleared beforp the bell went. It was a question if the Rifles could hold their lead when the last twenty opened, and Grammar attacked. but Spenceley. Gallagher and Fogarty rolled play to Grammar's quarter. A couple •of frees against the blues, and the Grammar forwards got away on a dribbling rush then went over the Rifles' line, for Knight to score a try. that Badeley failed to convert. At once the game hit the high spots as Grammar made the pace for a win. A free at the Rifles' line gave Gardener a good chance to goal, but he missed. Then came a change of luck for Grammar. .At the centre Gardener kicked and the ball beat Gillespie, enabling Monteith to follow up and score an easy try, which was not "onverted. At this stage rain was falling, but Sheen opened up a bout in- which- half a dozen handled ere Mitchell went down on Grammar's line. Grammar cleared, and returned the compliment, for Williams to pot at goal futilely. and Wilson to clear to halfway. At this stage the Grammar forwards were showing to advantage, and penneu the Rifles on their line, where Batty slipped through and scored the third try for Grammar.- Again it was not converted, and shortly after the game ended. Grammar 9 College Rifles 3 Mr. M. Kronfeld was referee. UNLUCKY GRAFTON. Graf ton kicked off with a diagonal wind ir their favour. The black and whites had all the better of the first ten minutes, theii forwards repeatedly driving 'Varsity back on to their line, and on two occasions Farmer and Liddle narrowly failed to score. Butler, however, was instrumental in putting the light blues on attack, and a fine rush, in which Stone, Miller, and Keene were prominent, was only prevented from yielding a score by mishandling right on the line. The closing stages of the spell were notable for six scrums, one after another , , within a few yards of the 'Varsity line, from all of which Grafton secured possession. Lynch and Hughes were both nearly over, but the 'Varsity • defence, especially Keene, was too good. On changing over, 'Varsity almost immediately flashed out in a good passing rush, O'Halloran making the opening, and passing to Stewart, to Lin ton,.. to Russell, who scored after a determined dive for the line. Bptler converted with a fine kick. 'Varsity s—o. A few minutes later, Macken came in on the inside of a line out in Grafton territory, and taking the ythrow-on from Olsen, was over the line before most people bad realised what had bappeoed. Butler made a good, but unsuccessful effort; to convert. 'Varsity B—o. Shortly before halftime Austin missed an easy shot at goal ffom a penalty, but a minute or- two later made amends by piloting a harder 'one straight Detween the posts from an off-sid< penalty. Half times scores: The third quarter opened at a furious pace. University held the initial advantage, their backs showing' out well; but presently the Grafton forwards, headed by Finlayson and Keary, eopened out in a series of fast ground rushes, from one of which Stewart narrowly failed to score. Then, from a scrum in the Varsity 25. McGregor secured and worked the . blind side with Liddle, the latter scoring a good try, which Austin converted, making the score 8 all. The rest of the' spell was without any notable Incident. A heavy rain - shower, heralded the opening of th last quarter. A brilliant bit of play by ButlerJ who linked up with Qlsen for ah in and out passing movement, resulted in MathJas just failing to score. However, a minute later' Keene' went I through from a rusb in' the Grafton 25 and I scored in the corner. Butler narrowly failed to goal. Varsity 11, Grafton 8. Varsity kept up the 'pressure, and Miller had a shot at goal from a mark, but missed. The next incident in play was a fine dash by Austin, which shifted play to the Varsity 23. The Grafton forwards made strenuous efforts to penetrate the Varsity defences, but their play lacked just that touch of finish which would have changed several'"near things" into a definite" scored Full time sonnded with the scores unchanged, via."?— j ; ; , University :. .:'". 7. 11 Grafton ..-.»•.'• '.•"..•....'• *..""'"

PONSONBY OUTPACE MARISTS. T Loose scrambling play marked the . opening stages till the dark bines caught r! Brodle napping, and McCarthy icrambled h in to score Mc Williams missing at goal. t 3 —o. Two brilliant passing movements in a one of which Lucas fooled almost the whole 7 defence, kept Marists herd pressed. Close to the line Tonkin ran into the thick of o it, and MeWlUlame, following, touched down. t 6—o. Tykes rallied, and O'Brien had two b quick-succession shots from penalties. An 0 infringement beneath the posts crave him. p the third, and the score -was 6—3. Down s bustled the Tyke pack again, and in a t scramble for the ball C. Hadley beat o Lincoln, and evened the scores. 3 Changing over, Ponsonby flashed into t brilliant bandling, spoiled by a forward s pass. Then Loft cleverly cut out most of J the defence, and sent to O'Brien, who was v held up, and a succeeding penalty went r wide. Lucas sent the game past half-way, t and there, wide oit, from a penalty, Mc- J; Williams goaled splendidly. 9—6 Bad J fielding by Tyke backs let the dark blues to l . the line, where a lucky "spec." bj Culpan ' booted it to halfway. Lincoln pulled his side j feat of a 4ght corner, and away came • %c Pony Backs, Matson fending Brodie and j scoring. 12—6. Again Loft came almost c through the defence, but Stltchbury dribbleU , back to midfielfl—and half time. Receiving. Palmer led the Pony pack to s j the line, where a penalty cleared, and J Wright dummied through to give Loft a ( chance. His punt over the full-back mis- , bounced, and Ponsonby 'lrced: to bustle the . next movement into a parsing rush that < sent Matson over with a clear run. 13 —6. Tykes, making it close, took play right , down field, but Palmer's clever dribbling returned to half-way, where Cammick and Lucas combined in heady work that let Webber over Lucas goaled. 20—6. From sideline play, midfleld. Vie. Williams:lobbed out a long pass to Lucas, who made an opening for Hook to reach the corner. 23—6. With battling forward work Tykes got close to the line, where Webber and then Lucas were ordered off. With but 13 men, Ponsonby struggled through the final spell , , and held the upper hand, twice forcing Marists. McCarthy almost battled through solo. Then in gathering gloom Tykes attacked, Ponsonby playing the touchline. Cammick cleared with a wonderful sprint, and Hook sl'pped when he had made a clear opening to cross. Two more Tyke forces finished the game with the score: Ponsonby 23 ■ ; "Marists 6 I Mr. Pemberton refereed. MANUKAU BEAT SUBURBS. Manukau hopped off with a. strong at-' , tack, but were unlucky in losing the services of Pascoe in the first two minutes of- play, his place being taken by FletchT.

Soon , ■iathieson made a clever opening, gave a leautiful reverse pass to Meyer, who sidetepped his way through to ecore far out. ilcLean missed the kick. The blue aaa vhite forwards were having the best ot natters in both scrum and open work, ana hey often made openings which gave their •acts a chance to shine. Then came the >est try of the day.
