N.Z. SCHOOLBOYS WIN

NEW SOUTH WALES BEATEN COLLAPSE OF A PLAYER United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright SYDNEY, August 28 The New Zealand schoolboys’ Soc- - j cer team outplayed New South Wales - to win by 2 goals to 0. It was a - bright display on a firm turf. r [ The New Zealand team was;— i Davey, .'Boddy, Taylor, McLean, Mc- - Kenzie, Richardson, Singer, Clarke, 1 Yeoman, Irvine, Christophersen. t New Zealand was not awarded a i single free-kick, hut was penalised frequently, Yeoman being ruled off- ■ side. Yeoman collapsed and left the field ’ for attention after scoring his • first goal ten minutes after half-time. He headed the ball into the net, and ’ was accidentally punched on the nose hv the goal-keeper, who attempted to punch clear. Blood streamed from Yeoman’s nose, but he soon returned to tho field. The second goal scored by Yeoman came after a brilliant and tricky run by Christophersen and a perfect centre. Several times in the second half New South Wales looked certain to score, but was prevented from doing so by sound play. Davey and Singer ' j were confident, and showed fine ball r control. It was hard to find fault r j with the team in any respect. Boddy, ’ I with powerful kicks, often saved his l side. r ; The New Zealand managers were 1 satisfied with the team’s exhibition. Two heavy backs were not available ‘ owing to sickness.
