The Carthusians on the strength of the geod form shown by them throughout the season were installed favourites for the event, but Mr.inhasbeenBickley his endeavours totheenergetiosideveryget a strongold soholarsfollows:ofwere aste opposeCharterhouse.

The weatherwas brilliant—in fact, the temperature, though enjoyable to the spectators, wasa trifle too warm for the players, who soon •howpd signs that the heat was having effect on them. It was extremelyunfortunate for the Casuals that A.G. Tepham should have been suddenly attacked by illnsos. His absenoe gave K. A. Greig an opportunity of^distinguishing himself, Hatton going eentre naif and Barker eh the right. On the other hand the OldBeys were exactly as per card, theappearance of A. M. Walters whenthe Carthusians turned out being the signal for t hearty outburst of welcome testifying te the (real player's popularity. Some delay wes occasioned at the start owing to the late arrival of U. Topham, whoexpected to be somewhat behindsraesis confreres owing to business matters. When it length the teams were ready for the fray there were some 4,000 spectators present. The spin of the cein reeulted in favour ofthe Carthusians, who elected te defendthe entrance end of the ground, having a flight breeze in their favour. At 3.47 Perkins itsrted the garnet which, for the first few minutee was carried on in midfield. The Dasuals were first to attack. Cot ten 11 and l'opham running down and oentring. Wreford-Brown kicked out, the ball being carried to the centre by the Carthusian forwards. After a throw-in the Old Boys attacked in earnest, Pelly and Greig being hardly pressed. The former kicked oat, but A. M. waited for the ball in mid-field from whence he tried a very long shot, whioh but for the clever judgment of Raikes mast have gone through the goal at the left-hand top corner. It was a grand shot grandly saved, and the applause which followed was thoroughly deserved. For a time the Carthusians pressed, but while displaying ill that cleverness for which they are justly famous their passing lacked its usual accuracy. In fact they hardly seemed to be in tonch with tacb other, it being seme considerable time before they settled down. In consequence the Casuals, on the vhole had the beet of the exchanges, A.Walters and Bray doing an immense amount of rork behind, the former's long kicking being of mmense service to his side. Barker stepped a rush by the Old Boys' forwards in midfield, ■ad placed on to Topham who^ after running on s few yards, put in a splendid low crosst wing. Guv rushed up and a goal lookedcertainty, bat the Old Foresters failedto get at tne ball, wbicti went just past the post smid a chorus of ejaculations from the spectators in the vicinity. Even play then ensued for a time, each side having a turn at pressing. Then the Casuals, whose forwards, oontrary to ixpectations, showed better form than the opposing front rank, once more attacked, andbeating their rivals' defence, scored the first toal of the matoh. Adding another before the interval the teams crossed over withthe score 2 geals in favour of tho Casualsi’inal—Casuals 3 goals. Old Carthusians 0.THE LEAGUE DIVISION I.COUNTY V.
