Tin results of the various game> were as fol'ows: — GREY II (4) v. DOBSON II (1). These two teams met at Dobson on Saturday before a fair attendance <>i spectators. Tin* game was very even in the first spell, only one goal being scored. Eatwell giving Greymouth the half-time lead. The second spell was also even an I interesting. Dobson evened the score when Ken- goaled from a melee in the Greymouth goal mouth. Soon after De Freatus again gave Greymouth 'he lead, and then furthei increased it. Before the final whistle Katwc'l scored the last goal for Greymouth, the game ending, Grey mouth 4, Dob-on I. .For Greymouth Burn. De Freatus and Marley shone on*. while Dobson’s best were W. Hamilton, D. Hamilton and R King. Mr R. Nelson ablv control led the game. TAYLORVILLE II (2) v. RUNANGA II (0).

For Technical Ninimo. in goal, was in no small way responsible for the win. while Skeats ami Vaughan were the best of the remainder. Greymouth "s best players were Swinbiirn, Burn an I Falwell Mi A R. Hamill made an impartial re TECH. A 111 (0) v. MARIST 111 (0). An even, but rather scraggy game look place on the Technical ground between Maris’ and Tech A third grade teams, and no score resulted, largely due to the fine goal keeping of Lee (Technical) and Gough.

Bee, Armstrong and Baton were the best of the Tech ntcal eleven. whil< Gough. Dargan and Kiely impressed for Marist. Bro. Jerome was a capable and impartial referee. DUNEDIN, June 17.
