WELSH AMATEUR CUP. CARNARVON CLEVERLY CAPTURE THE CUP. Carnarvon 5 Oak Alyn 1 Notwithstanding the heavy rain, heavier ground, and a slippery bal-1, the final round for the Welsh Amateur Cup between Carnarvon and Oak Alyn at Colwyn Bay on Saturday produced interesting if not high-standard football. The Llandudno ground had been originally fixed upon as the venue, but at the last moment, so to speak, the Association accepted the sugges- tion in favour of the Denbighshire field. The game attracted about one-fourth the number of spectators anticipated, but, in view of the wretched weather prevailing, a "gate" of nearly JE16 in value was by no means unsatisfactory. Each team was accompanied by between 200 and 300 supporters, and no better evidence of their en1;;hUiSiasm could be given than the fact that they "stoodj out"—the Oohvyn Bay ground is so far bereft of a stand of any kind-the proceed- ings, though rain fei heavily during three-fourths of the time. Alyn, who were praoiacallv a.t full strength, started prime favourites though local sympathy was entirely on the side of the western team, particularly on account of the absence of Johnny Jones, their sma.rt ouitskle left, and the fact that this was their fir bad for the cup, which, by the way, ihad been held down Wrexham way far many years previously. Mr Slater, of Llandudno, was the referee, and, thanks to his tacfr and mollifying influence, the match was played in the beet possible spirit. The teams were :— Carnarvon: G. H. Jones; Evan Hughes and A. Griffiths; J. Griffiths, M. Herbert, and J. Williams; R. H. Roberts, T. Roberts, Walter Jones, Hugh Roberts, and K R. Jones. Oak Alyn: Roberts; S. Davies and Ted Da- vias; I. Jones, Emlyn Jones, and James Martin; Lewis. Ted Jones, M. Rowlands, Baugh, and T. Green. The preliminary evolutions were in favour of Alyn. who played down the slope. Two brISk. movements on their right were full of promise, but Hughes and Griffiths prevailed, the latter kicking with rmsoh judgment and strength. Mick Herbert led a raid upon the other end, and the Carnarvon forwards hustled the oppos- ing defence very smartly. Tom Roberts and Walter Jones engineered a pretty movement, in dealing with Ted Davies found much diffi- culty. At length, liowever, he cleared with a strong paint. Baugh cantered up to the Carnar- von goal in company with Green, but Hushes was safe. Midfield play was followed by another determined attack by Carnarvon, in which the three inwide forwards were (iCen ta much advan- tage. At length, S. Davies, in trying to inter- cept a pass toed the leather into his own net— an unfortunate accident, which gave the "Can- aries' supporters obvious pleasure. Alyn ac- cepted the challenge, and a most effective bit of footwork between Lewis and Ted Jones resulted in a businecs-like attack upon the other goal. Over-anxious to gttt into a safe shooting posi- tion, Rowlands held on too long, and Hughes cleared neatly. Alyn were obviously playing the wrong game. The ground was altogether unsuit- able for the short-passing* game, but, despite instructions liberally (and on this occasion not unwisely) shouted at them by their supporters, they clung to it till the close. The Carnarvon men on the other hand adapted themselves to the conditions with real cleverness. They swung the ball about from wing to wing, and whenever the least opportunity presented itself they shot at Roberts in a manner which caused the goalee considerable uneasiness. And it was these tactics that ensured for Carnarvon the splendid vibtory which they subsequently won. The second goal accrued from a dhance shot sent in at terrifio speed from twenty-five yards away by the irre- pressible Walter Jones. This happened within five minutes of the previous goal, and the cheer- ing* by the west-country visitors was loud and long. Alyn rallied courageously, and within a few seconds the baJl was in front of Jones. Baugh sent in a piping shot all; close range, but the ball collided with Hughes and rebounded. Another boot met it and directed it with equal force goalwards agUin, but this time the wood- work intervened, and a third effort was made. this time by Lewis, but with no success, the ball flying over, a few inches to the wrong side of the cross-bar. This was an exciting "moment for the Carnarvon defence, and the last real chanoe Alyn had of scoring apart from one which followed before half-time. Beautiful work by R. H. Roberts placed Carnarvon once more on the agg'ressive, and in dute course Walter tried his luck with another long*, dropping shot, whioh was well held by Roberta. Two corners then fell in quick succession to AJyn, and, though both were fruitless, Ted Jones subsequently scored, after a skilful bit of individual play. Jones tried to push the bail! away, but it was evidently too slippery to handle properly. Here- abouts the rain fell in torrents, and the field was reduced to a very sodden condition. Never- theless, the pace of the game did not relax for a moment. Alyn made a vigorous effort to equalise, and at one point Jones appeared to be well beaten when the ball accidentally met the tip of his) up-raised boot and rolled a few inches wide of the net. At this stage, Alyn were the superior side, but the fates were unkind to them. A splendid shot by Martin before the whistle sounded half-time skipped over the net just a few inches to the bad. At the interval Carnar- von retained the lead by 2 goals to one. The second half opened with a spirited attack by the Carnarvon left, E. R. Jones testing the Alyn keeper with a fine long shot, which Ro- berts held in his lap. EndB were then chang'ed smartly, neither side gaining a material advan- tage. Subsequently, the Carnarvon forwards whipped the ball from one wing to another, and Tom Roberts was at length on the weak side of Ted Davies. The veteran drove with tremend- ous force, but. the ball paased over Roberts' head and on to an umbrella sheltering a soaking spec- tator behind the net much to the la,iter's dis- comfiture, and the amusement of the crowd. A minute later, Tom tried another capital effort, whioh just missed the net, while Walter Jones followed immediately afterwards with another lightning drive from a melee in front of Ro- berts, but the keeper oleared adroitly midst loud applause. Carnarvon maintained the aggressive, and, though they met with a stubborn resistance, they forced two corners, from one of which Hughie Roberts scored smartly with his head. Two minutes afterwards Hughie initiated the prettiest dribble of the day. From about half- way he made a cork-screw course for himself between about six opponeIlt, one of whom aeoi- d^mtally injured htm, physical suffering, notwithstanding, he pluokily kept on his way till he well within reach of Roberts, finishing up with a glorious goal. before he fell". Hughie was in considerable pain, and he was borne to the dressing room, but within ten minutes he was again in action, all but. scoring directly he got on the field. Carnarvon were now easily masters of the situat ¡on, and corner after corner was forced. Eventually, Ted Davies, who haul played a hard game throughout, missed his kiok, letting- in the wary Walter, who coolly cantered on, and scored with ease. Alyn again rallied courageously, however, and they were attacking stoutly when Mr Slater called "time," midst deafening applause. PRESENTATION OF THE CUP. Rain fell uncea-aingly, but few of the drenched sfjectators could forego atfendiny' the little pre- sentation ceremony which took place in front of the drassing room. The cup was produced midst ringing "cheera for the Canaries," and Mr Nunnerley, hon. treasurer to the Welsh Association, called forward the captain of bhe victorious team—unassuming R. H. Roberts— who made his way to the front, a mud-bespat- tered, rain-soaked but smiling figure. The vociferous cheering* over, Mr Nunnerley said that in the first plaoe lie must apologise for the absence of the Association's President, who, unfortunately, had been unable to attend that afternoon, and who had asked "him to undertake -he President's part of the proceedings. I am exceedingly sorry, proceeded Mr Nunnerley, ihaA we have had such a miserable day for this ixame. but I am pleaded thw you have taken the renditions in good part and fought the matoh in a sportsmanlike way (applause). The game Ma beet* fought out. in my opinion, in a down- -1ght.. honourable, cup-fighting manner, and that s what we want-to play football in the proper spirit, without any dirty, under-handed work in Lny direction (applause). I congratulate Car- larvon upon their victory—(renewed applause), nore esifteciallv because I understand this was he first time for them to enter for this cup, and shall perhaps bo docng no injury to any other •lub when I say I inooe this will not be the last ime, for them to win it (applause). Your svm- pathies will, I have no doubt, go out to vour lefeated rivals (cheers). Five-to-one is a bad lefoat, but I hope the Alyn men will take it in proper, sportsmanlike way (hear, hear). I lave very much pleasure in presenting the cup o the captain of the Carnarvon team (upplauooe). There were loud calls for a "speech" from 'Capt." Roberts, but tactfully he avoided this rdeal by requesting* his friends to "give Oak Uyn a rousing cheer." The cheer was given interest. "Thank you, sir," said Roberts a he saluted Mr Nunnerley. Carnarvon's victory gave great pleasure to Bay football enthusiasts, whose enoour- t geinent throughout the game was second only o that g'lveJ1 by the team's own followers. The 'Canaries'' are thus proud holders of the Welsh {maiteiir and North Wales Amatuer Cups, and "lien it is considered that thev have trurolwh- In relied upon the help of local "talent"' pure nd simple their success is all the more r,rai.-e-

CONWAY WHISPERS. The end of the football season was reached at Conway on Saturday, and the Biues" cannot be said to have maintained their high standard when the Llandudno Amateurs defeated them on their own ground, to the tune of 3-0. The weather was against correct football, and the ground was in a wretched condition. How- ever, the Amateurs appeared to revel in the mud, and they thoroughly deserved to win on the day's play. « • • « The home team seemed to be completely de- moralised, and, for a change, the defence were continually at fault. The halves were also well below form, Johnson being the best of a spiritless trio. « # » The forwards were in anything but the mood they were in against Bangor. On the other hand, from Stallard to the for- wards, all the Amateurs played a capital game, the defence particularly being in fine form. < Georgie Davies was the best half back on the field, while Pearson and Will Edwards also be- haved well. < < x The forwards were all good. Jack Brown proved a capable "pivot," and the wings also worked well together. it Now that the season has closed, the "Blues" executive will, no doubt, be busy securing players for the next session. • • • • • For several years Conway have had an unhappy knack of dropping points at the opening of the season, and it would be well to provide against that in future. • • • • For a town where it is exceedingly difficult to keep football alivo at all, Conway have not done badly. They" were the runners-up for the senior cup, and in the League tourney they gave a very good account of themselves towards the close. < t If they had only avoided being defeated on their own ground so often they might have occu- pied a very respectable position on the League table. Carnarvon, Beaumaris, Pwllheli, and Llandud- no have aU taken the maximum points from Con- way. Better luck next season, "Blues!"

FESTINIOG CHAT. Although the "Blues" have been exceedingly unlucky throughout the season they finished off with a victory over Denbigh by 3 goals to 2. < < On the day's play the "Blues" were by far the better team, although considerably weakened by the absenoe of several players. I was glad to see Jim Lloyd sufficiently recovered to take his place in the t^am; the points scored were to his credit. I" • • e- • Although the weather wan most unfavourable a large crowd lined the ropes, and enjoyed the triumph of their men. < < I understand that probably the park will not be available next season. Wherever the next venue is situated the committee would do well to devote some time and money to preparing the ground properly.

BEAUMARIS BULLETS. Good football was an impossibility on Saturday at Beaumaris, and the score indicates the nature of the gam.e-one-sided affair. « Colwyn Bay were unfortunate in losing Booth's services early in the game. < Hallwood was obliged to retire to his old place between the sticks, where he won the admiration of the home supporters for his saves. • • • m W. G. and Sam Davies were not very often called upon to show their powers, but when needed they were all there. It W.J. was the best of the half-line. He only I 11 failed in his object on one occasion all through the afternoon. Don also put in some useful work. w « w w w Dai Davie3 seemed to be in fine form, and scored seven goals. The visiting front line were off compared to previous displays. < w W. H. Hughes headed nicely the solitary goal for the Bavites. The half-back line was spoilt early in the game, through Hallwood having to take his position between the sticks. » • The game was played in the boat of feeling throughout. So all's well that ends well.

R ICING, PERCY SMALLWOOD AGAIN SUCCEEDS. CONWAY MAN'S GREAT RUNNING. The "ritt*,aurg'h Stm" of the 14th inst. rtJ" ports another excellent achievement by Percf. Smallwood, the Conway lad, at Scubenville. Ohio. The writer states:—In the Auditorium* rink, this city, last night Percy Smallwood, of Wales, gave a remarkable exhibition of runntB? for 15 miles, defeating Albert H. Nash, th« Indian, better known as Blackhawk, two la.ps. the winner's time being 1.21:43, which is littis more than a minute behind the world's record for the distance. Small wood demonstrated to the entire satisfaction of a largv> crowd the. hU defeat of Tom Longboat, in Philadelphia, Decen1' ber 5th. last year, was no fluke, for he. f&ir|? flew around the 10-lap track, built especially for last night's race. That the men were cutting out a fasrt, clip is shown by the fact that the time for the first three miles was 14.25 25, which is just 8 2-5 seconds slower than world's record for the distance. The time 10 miles was 54.57. It was the first time SmaIl- wood and NatSli came together for 15 miles, and both d'9mon.-it rated that they are about ass a pair of 15 male runners as there is in the country. The heart-breaking clip did not -010 to affect either man, both finishing fresh Smalhvood running the last miile in 5:07.
