First Match Of The Season,
"Hurons," or Senforth, and Brussels
Intermediate Champions street.
The opening game of Foot Ball for this
season was played on Viotoria Park,
Brussels, on Monday menthe between the
well known, sturdy kiokere, called the
',Hurons", of Seaforth, many of whom
are veterans at the game, and the Inter-
mediate team of Brunets. Ae the viefame
snowed up with nearly a complete line

feared our lade would be.badly drubbed
as only four of last ,year's champions
were on the teem, viz , Robineon, Biowa,
Cameron and Kerr. Two of lest year's
Junior team were on the list, Miller and
Liodeay, and to complete the eleven
Anderson, Montgomery, Strachan, Little
and McNair were drafted in, several of
the boys playing their first game with an
outside club. But they did their part
well and showed that while Brussels hae
lost a number of Bret -class players in the
peewee of Ira Gerry, Frank Roche,
Willie Good, Oliver Qnerin and others
eine lest season they have likely timber
on hand to make a good fight for the
