JUNIOR RIVALS

FOURTEEN NIL: CITY PREVAIL. Weak opposition made the lot of the City juniors ah easy bhfe and they dvailbd themselves of the opportunity to air the ball and so turn on a fast and open exhibition. Angel opened their account with a try which Banton improved and Payne ■ scored to give his side an B—nil advantage at the breather. Payne scored a second time early in the second session and then Calder put in a good run to materialise. When the referee, Mr Ron. Scott sounded the final whistle City were safely home, 14 —nil. KAMO TOO GOOD. ONERAHI 11 POINTS DOWN. In outpointing Onerahi, 18 —7, Kamo played fast football. Hooper was their star performer and was responsible for the big majority of their points. Weeks scored for the seasiders and C. Joass converted and also turned a penalty to account. Mr E. Bowyer was referee. WILLING PLAY LEAGUE BATTt.ES THRILLS NOT OF RIGHT ORDER {.Special to “Northern Advocate.*’! AUCKLAND, This Day. There were thrills aplenty at Carlaw Park bn Saturday afternoon, when the senior competition was advanced a further stage, but they were not of the right order. A willing but not brilliant game between Mount Albert and Marist developed into a series of fistic engagements in the second spell, and the referee was forced to take stern measures and give' four players their marching orders. Mount Albert fared the worst and lost three men. but despite this handicap they not only maintained their advantage, but actually increased their score to win by the comfortable margin of 18 points to 6. City accounted for Newton by a small margin, thus making amends for their defeat by lire suburban side in the first round, while in the early engagement of the day Devonport proved superior to Ponsonby and romped home with points to spare. The Ponies were not a shadow of the team which pressed Richmond to a draw only a few weeks ago.
