BRUSSELS STILL
LEADS THE PROCESSION.
Notwithstanding tbe short notice of
the Intermediate Foot Ball match in
the finals between Walkerton football-
ers, who had tvon co matches this
season without a defeat, and Brussels
there was a fairly good tura out at
Victoria Park bene on Tuesday even-
ing. The visitors arrived on the
afternoon train fresh from trouncing
Owen Sound and winning that District
and were a trifle cocky as to what was
going to be done here. The home
team wan rather 10 the dumps. Rus.
Brown, one nf the best on the team,
was laid up with measels and lim
Stracban, the well known forward,
missed the train at Toronto and wired
his inability to be here. Our ;lads
buckled into it however and as Steven-
son, the sturdy half back had said
good bye to his attack of measles be
was on hand and Charlie Bryans was
drafted in to take Stracban's place on
the wing along with Kerley. The
game commenced about 6,3a with
Brown Jackson, referee, who meted
out evee handed justice to botb teams
without fear or favor.
At the opening of the match it look -
as if the home team would have a big
job on their hands to preserve the
safety of their citadel but as time wore
on it was demonstrated that they were
well able to put the visitors on their
defence and only for bad shooting
Brussels might have bad a big score.
A penalty kick in the first half struck
the top bar and was fruitless.
When half time was called, it was
clear to the spectators that the tallies
would be few and that no quarter
would be given. The home eleven
set to work with a vim and the boys
from the North drew in their outposts
and put the major portion of their
team before tbeir goal and so it con -
tinned to the end Brussels goal keeper
hardly seeing the sphere throughout
the o hours. Despite the massing of
the defence the ball was put between
the stakes but not allowed. Shortly
after, however, it was planted in the
right spot and a mighty cheer made
a rent in the atmosphere. The visit-
ors claimed no goal but the referee
thought differently and the ball was
taken to the centre for a kick off.
There were numerous charges suad
corner kicks by the home team but
the match ended 7 to o In favor of
Brussels, Cheers were given for the
visitors. Walkerton bas a husky
bench, well balanced and speedy.
Two of the number spell their names
as if they came from Mildmay and one
is a resident of Chesley. With one
exception they played fair ball and this
gent played wall flower for to minutes
for striking Dick Cardiff iu the back
when the latter was taking the ball
from him. Everybody on our line up
did well considering the strength of
their opponents who suffered their
first defeat this season. Charlie Bryans
covered himself with glory and. per-
spiration and showed heawas able • to
travel with thampionsitip company.
