TRINITY 7. UNIVERSITY (j'uiversity showed improved form to play a drawn ,','amo against Trinity in a gumo that, «';i,l fast and even. Both referees wero ittrict on "sticks" and other bronchos of the rules, and in tlio oarly nUges of the gamo tho whistlu was constantly blowing. Trinity wan tlio first to gain any noticeabba advantiuio whon N. Bowdon centred acros.s tlio University circle. Howovor, "sticks" gave* reliof, and Trinity had to defend a couple, of penalty corners, both of which, wero cleared. Play wim trnns ferred to University's ond, and Ijcster centred neatly, but tha opportunity was lost through a breach of tho rules. Duffielcl led tho University forwards who carried play to Trinity's area, where Ford let a pass go astray. Trinity hammered nt University's goal, where Hall put up a grout defence, but Davis Anally beat him off a rebound. Half-time came shortly after with the score: Trinity 1, University 0. The opening i»f the second spell was remarkable, for the. rapid scoring, as three; goals worn recorded in as many minutes. University was tho first to break away. and Du'ffield aceopted re pass from Hayes and equalised tho scores. Trinity immediately rotaliated and Kadcliffe put Trinity ahead and on bullying off Trinity came straight through for iavis to add their third goal. Trinity :t, Uu.vursity 1. Duffield mid Huston wore combining well in University's ■"or ward line, and tho Trinity defence was fully extended. The pair finally broke ; thr.iusli and Huston scored University's bivI end goal. Trinity 3, University 2. Nolan I'd til,i Trinity foru-ard in a left wine attack: but a neat centre went bewir; and Univcrsilr a'lMimeil the offensive am! a combined'rush ended iu Cooper e.pi -lising tV' ■ scores n;::iin. Trinity ,'t. U: verity ;t. lb, .Kami- bcraine faster than e ;• ■, and Trinity's ! forwards swept down and No an sent in an ! an-.le shot which missed by inches. U.,i ]ve sity gained possession, but found Trin it.y's defence very sound. \V. liowdeu itrrted tlia Trinity forwards movin;;, but offslib the chance. Time came with University attacking stronclv, and the gnraa ended in a draw: Trinity 3, Unlvoralty 3. It-ferees: Metrj C. U. Holland and It. Ten-ne. I TBCHNICAI. v. SYDENHAM j T.'eiinieal played its best jjamo of the season to beat .Sydenham by the substantial margin of 6 souls to t. in the early rtiiKi-s of the same Technical was repeatedly ('.>■ the attack, and several shots missed the ifiuil by inches. .Syd.'nham was tho first to score when ilusbrid',-0 led the forwards the fall Ifimth of the field and anally scored with u shot which went in off a Teemiicul back.

Technical ;i, Sydenham f. Uusbridge and Simpsou led tho yydonhaui forwards, and tho latter just missed with a shot from well out. Technical's forwards wore combining well, and Houton, on the rijjht wins, was puttintj in some good centres.
