The locals defence had rat •era hard row to hoe, but were alwaye_nn the spot, and many excellent shote were stopped. Elliott and Galloway of right wall got in some very fine work, u --d a pretty rush, with some good passes, and a long shot caught McQueen apping and No. 3 for Wingham was th result.

The locals from this on were the aggressors, literally pouring ass shots on Harristoa goal, and adding '4iree more to their striug in the first Ietlf, making the score at balf-time 6 to 2 :n favor of the home team.

Some time in the dim and listant future you may be able to drink out of the "cup." The Harrtston players have protested this game on the gron ids that the ice wes covered with water. This siate of af- fairs was surely as fai for one team as the other. The whole.matter, however, was to be divided lace evening before playing the game at Heirriston.
