Institute were defeated by Seatoun by the odd Koal in three, tho winning goal being registered by Seatoun on the call of time. The teams were:—

Institute: Tarrant; Gill and Coronuti; Bing, Jefferys, and Miller; Bilby, Maddocks, Dickinson, May, and Smith. Seatoun: Wyatt; Grimstone and Du'ftill; Brown, Kershaw, and Murie; Saunders, Kinder, Telford, M'Kenzic, and Smyth.

The match, which was played at Se:itoiii), provided some good football, and hi the concluding stages >]>lay was thrilling. Both sides started with a poor display, and as they were about evenly matched no great advantage was obtained. They threatened the goals in turn, but generally lacked finish in their work. The Institute forwards tried to force matters, but the Seatoun banks played safe football, and together with Wyatt, kept the suburban gonl clear. Tarrant, also, was called on a great deal, and he brought off some tine saves. Seatoun kept pressing, and at last a movement that originated from Saunders brought results. The winger sent in a' nice shot, and the forwards bustled Tarrant, Telford scoring from close quarters. Seatoun 1, Institute 0. A few moments later it looked as though Seatoun would repeat'tho performance, and a centre from Saundcrs' gave h; ■1 | I'll is side a cjiancc, which, However, was lost through Murie being unable to get. the ball away. Institute rallied, and Wyatt stopped three successive sliots. One shot from May almost brought results, but the goalie was safe, and punched the ball clear. Seatoun came again, and Kinder sent a nice pass to Smyth, who had only the goal-keeper to beat. His shot was weak. The hopes of the Seatoun supporters were raised when Smyth got away down the wing, but Coronna was safe. No further goals were scored in the first half.

Institute started the second spell with vim, but the pace did not last, and Seatoun soon evened up. M'Kenzie tried a shot at an open goal," but his kick was wild. Institute used their wing men to advantage, and Jefferys took a shot, after having received the ball from Smyth. Wyatt just got his hands to the leather, which he tipped over the bar for a corner. Dickinson tried a similar shot, and again Wyatt saved. Institute kept up th.2 "pressure, and at last May scored with a stinging shot. Seatoun ],' Institute J. Institute decidedly had the best of tho game for the rest of the spe>], but just on the call of time Smyth got away down the wing, and centtcd nicely. Tarrant punched clear, but in doing so left an opening and Telford made sine with the shot. Immediately afterwards the whistle blow, aud the game ended: Seatoun 2, Institute .1. 11 r. A.
