REPRESENTATIVE GAME
In the second representative Association football game of the season, played at the Basin Reserve on Saturday afternoon, Wellington scored a comfortable win over a team representing the Seventh Infantry Brigade, whom they beat 5-0. Though there was a wide margin between the two teams the losers played gamely throughout, and they produced,. individually, brilliant football on several occasions. It was a worthwhile game, and not to be compared with the fiasco of • the last occasion on' which Wellington met an Army side. '
Wellington were two up at the interval after a half in which honours ■ were fairly even. The. scorers were Singer and Woods. In the second half Wellington's superiority in all branches of the game became more marked, and they scored three times more, through Woods,' Sharp, and Bell. \lnfantry Brigade attacked'sporadically but without the combination to penetrate the Wellington . defence., As a curtain-raiser Boys' Institute beat Waterside 3-1 in a special fourth division challenge match. /
