WATERSIDE'S BIG SCORE

Waterside "were seen to advantage last Saturday in. the gained against Lower Hutt. The -forward- line was particularly strong,,and seemed to be able to penetrate at'will. Had it not been for inaccurate" shooting; md a splendid defence on the part of Moyes, the Hutt custodian,' the score might well have been doubled; "" ■ ~

Janes,, although erratic in tte first half, scored no fewer than three goals in the second:. Thompson and Wilson also acted as the spear-points *bt a Very efficient attack, 'n ; . <

The Waterside defence .was 'a very safe one, with Co*; McLennan, "and White at the toj> of "their 5 form. . Lower Hutt, were handicapped by a weak forward line,-which not only 'failed 'to turn to advantage ■such opportunities which, came itsi'.wayy but also left to the backs thp job of stopping the attacks qf the whole: Waterside line. -; ' i -•■*. ■:'.- ■.-■•'"

A notable weakness lay in the ctsntre position, where Jessup. was far from his previous form; ' ' Moyes, as is mentioned jieforer put on a. really fine display -in "foaL.and was, well ajded.by the halves."^
