(Contributed) Well -- 1 guess that's:the way • • things go. Lucknow Pee Wees went to Dux- _ ham and each and every team ! member gave a good account of themselves. The return game was, to say the least, quite different. Lucknow had a couple of players 'missing, Andy Whitby out with pneunthnia, and "another" out with cracked ribs which, we understand, were received when he. fell out of bed. • This. however", could not possibly have,mmade the. difference we saw in the play of e two games, since the replacing for- wards played very well. The defence, while they did let some rushes through, stopped many many more and received .a few bruises doing it. Therefore, no great blame can be given them for the loss: Maybe it was the netrninders, who did, we must admit, let in a couple of "strange" goals. But since they then robbed Durham on about four clean breakaways, we don t suppose it was all their fault either. • t•i• This being the case, we have no e . one left to blame for the loss but the referees, dear, blind sails • that they are. We sometimes won • der if they should not be equipped with rear-view mirrors, since • most of the sculduddery occurs behind them. 'This game was no ,except - No att r how we try to make jokes, the oss still stands. Dui.- ham has a good, 'fast, strong and .„ on occasion, rough team.
