half-time the Scarborians scored again after a quick breakaway. In the second half the Old Peterites had more of the play, but again were weak in the circle. Each side scored once, Warin's goal for the Old Peterites being a reward for a lot of hard work throughout the game. The Scarborians' goals were scored by Brooker (4) and Harris. Team :—J. Oakley ; J. M. Atkinson, N. W. Smithson ; E. Harrop, R. Ogley, B. W. Jackson ; K. Lockwood, W. Elliott, R. P. Warin, J. Haigh, M. B. Marwood.
OLD PETERITES 2 goals, OLD BOWDONIANS 3 goals.
The weather caused the time for this game to be altered from 4-15 p.m. to 11-15 a.m., and consequently the York contingent were again absent, as also were one or two more. Two forwards were borrowed from the Clodhoppers, and also a goalkeeper. The game was a very close one and either team might have won, but the Old Bowdonians' defence was just a little steadier than the Old Peterites'. The Old Peterites were the first to attack and were the better side in the first half. Bayliss and Elliott formed a dangerous left wing, and their swift raids were always dangerous. Bond, who played in Warin's place until the latter arrived, scored the Old Peterites' first goal, and a clever shot by Elliott resulted in the second. Gilbody scored for the Old Bowdonians, and at half-time the score was 2-1. In the second half the Old Bowdonians gradually improved, and they eventually took the lead with goals by the brothers Gilbody. The Old Peterites attacked desperately towards the end, and Warin, Elliott and Bayliss always looked dangerous, but the Old Bowdonians' defence held out. Team :—A. Goley ; J. M. Atkinson, N. W. Smithson ; E. Harrop, R. Ogley, B. W. Jackson ; T. Bayliss (sub.), W. Elliott, R. P. Warin, A. N. Other, C. Wellington.
OLD PETERITE SQUASH RACKETS. (By a Special Correspondent.) After our triumphant debut in the Londonderry Cup Competition of 1935-6, our ignominious defeat at the hands of the Royal Naval College, Dartmouth, in the second round —the Old Peterites drew a bye in the first round—of this season's event came as an unpleasant anticlimax. As it was pointed out in " The Peterite '' when commenting on the narrow defeat by Eton in last year's semifinal, St. Peter's—to have any chance of making really good 8
