wlmi ft_nUAY'S FOOTBALLa; inJB* t SWANSEA v. NEWPORT. (By PENDRAGON.") I "I" bo hard did it rreeae during the week that the Swansea club took the I precaution to garb St. Helens in a j mantle of straw. That portion of the ground immediately in front of the! Stand was protected several days ago, and yesterday afternoon the turf was covered all over. Overnight Mr Perkina W.s able to give me the assur- ance that play would definitely take place. i ais afternoon's match was the third of the series of four. Swansea won the first by a dropped goal (J. Morris) and a penalty goal (Bancroft) to two tries- seven points to six. On that occasion both "ildoo were short handed. The second game, at Newport, was a disasrous one, the All Whites being beaten by 12 pointy to nil. They had not previously be-An beaten to that ex- tent by Newport for about 20 years. To-day Newport had once again to re- arrange their side- ack Wetter and W. P. Geen had withdrawn from the three- quarter line, and the quartet, for which five players had been chosen, had therefore to be completed by the intro- duction of H. J. Rowlands^ The latter had played in big football before. He has lately been playing better than ever. Overnight there was no certainty as to whether Owen Jenkins would be avail- able. He had returned -to Aberystwyth College, but it waa hoped that hn would be able to travel down for all the big matches Swansea's hopes of success were founded in the forwards, the pack. being probably the bast in the country, The form displayed by the Newport I eight had been in and out." Yet with swell men as Uzzell—the pick of; last week's Welsh eight-tltd Dibble they could gcai-cely complain of a dearth. of good I-eacieris. Teams:— SWANSEA.—Fall-back, J.

Referee: Mr. Torn, Morgan, Ebbw Vale. i The fears that Owen Jenkins would not be able to travel down from Aberystwyth were realised, with the! result that Swansea had to utilise I TOM WILLIAMS I as a centre-throequarter. In the for- wards Moulton was replaced by Alf John. Vile re-appeared at inside-half for Newport. There were only about 500 spectators, on the ground a quarter of an hour from the start, but the crowd poured steadily in. A few minutes before three o'clock the outlook was briK??r. ?he. attendance., how- ever, did not realise expectations. Among the occuts of the Grand Stand were Sir John T. D. Llewelyn, I Bart., and Mr. T. J. Williams, Maesygwernen. There were only 6,000 spectators on the ground when Bancroft kicqed off. Newport replied with a rush to the centre, at which point Dai Williams made a clever mark, from which Ban- croft sent nicely to touch. The Whites got back into a strong position, but though they heeled from the next scrum nage, passing did not deveIon, the ball going loose. Howell Lew? l dribbled paot Hirst, aft?r which BeynO¡ll\ very nearly too hthe bal] over. Loose play close up led up to (something quite unexpected. The hall was given out to TOM WILLIAMS by Beynon. and tho international made historv by dropping a goil les's than five minutes from the start. Newport got intI) neutral quarters afterwards, but Swansea were playing the better football, and very soon they were able to make headway by passing. Alf Thomas kept up the next siege by 1 kicking to touch. Then there was some effective work by Rapssy and i Beynon. The Swansea forwards were I HEELING REPEATEDLY, and tl: ¿ ball showed s-uch abund- ant promise in combination, H'f-t¡me Psores SWANSEA—1 dropped goal. NEWPORT—Nil. SWANSEA TOWN v. OSWESTRY. SwAtn'sea Town were at home this afternoon to Oswestry in the fourth round of the Welsh Senior C-up*. The clu bs have never met oreviously, but the fact that the visitors in the third round defeated Card;ff Oijfcy showed that they were capable of rising to the oecason, and it was evident this afternoon that they would mnko a bold bid for the next round. Both sides were well represented. Swansea Town. Storey ALUian Cleverly Dufiv B asset t, Cubberley. Messer, Greer. Anderson, Weir, Ball, 0 A. Williams, J. Williams, Hughes Bavies Griffiths. Hughes, Roberts, Potts, Evans Jones Casey Oswestry. Referees Mr. Jones, Trehtrbert. The ground was in a good condition and shortly before three o'clock there was an attendance of aibout 5,000 people. Swansea lost tho toss and kicked towards tho town end. Ander- son was charged in a foul manner, and the free kick taken by Bassett put I Weir in a n.ce position. Ball fell in the penalty area, but the referee ruled the charge legitimate. A corner followed on the left wing, and Ball headed towards the goal. One of the opponents sav"d luckily by heading over the goal line. »Tho second corner brought nothing, but Swansea were constantly on the attack, and a weak clearance by Jones compelled Casey to clear. Oswestry now got away and Hughes looked dangerous. He had A GOOD OPENING I but Airman sent to touch, after tapping the leather with hie head. The game tvas be-ng fought out at a rapid pace, and although Oswestry were more on the, defence, they gave the impression that they were a team capable of rising toauuoSit anything. A n .ce tnovemem, Oil the visitors' r.ght wing taw Duffy clear in a weak fashion, and Cleverty was called upon to relieve all danger. Another movement on the left wing compelled Cleverly to run across the field and kick to touch. Oswestry were improving vastly, and after Potts had outwitted Messer he touchcd to Grif- fiths, who, on the goal line, sent across a beautiful centre which Cleverly again cleared. Aliman wa.s beaten, and Griffiths centred, J. Williams inter- cepting and passed out to GRIFFITHS a second time. The forward shot, and Storey being laid out the leather found the net. This happened- within ten minutes of the start, and upon the resumption Oswestry still pressed, but ultimately they were penalised and play went to the other end. WWr sent to Messer, and the latter failed to trap. He got possession from the throw-in and centred. life-sett got hold and shot, the ball going too high. The Swansea forwards were not by any means doing justice to themselves, and when Ball sent to Anderson and the latter failed, a brilliant opening was lest. Oswestry kept up a hot attack, giving the home defence r, hot time, but no score was brouglit about. Ander- son received from a free kick and touched to Ball. The inside man let I the leather pass to Gre?r. who tried a shot. His kick was true and onlv MISSED THE NET I by inches. This was the first time the home side had been so near to scoring, and excitement was at once introduced. Bail and Weir were respons b.e for a, pretty movement which concluded in the centre forward hooting wiida whilst on the run. At the other end Cleverly hung on to the ball to long and. in eJldeavourng to boat Davien1 iu- stead of clearing o-t once, he lost pos- session. Tho wing map shot, and brought Storey to his knees. It was a narrow shave and the following play was in the Oswestry goal. from a. corner Ball just missed the Met, while a. few minutes later the jgame player tried a long shot which Casey sent over the go-al-line. Two corners followed, and the one from Greer's foot saw Ball from the resulting melee, shoot just wide. Play was warming up now and both sides tried hard to bring about another score. Davies, for Oswostry, was offside and Cubberley trans- ferring to IhdJ, the latter passed: to Messer, yaw lost possession to Jones. After this'the-o was EAC-ITING PLAY I in the Oswestry goalmouth. Anderson heat .several opponents when ho looked dangerous, but Cassy chared when he was being charged by another forward. After a brief visit to the other end, Swamea were 9 -v,-Cn a frco kick just outside the penalty area. Bail took the kick and ultimately a corner was forced ¡ which gave nothing. Swansea Town were gradualy forcing their opponents into a corner, and it denied disappoint- ing that Messer, when he had -a gcod opening, f-ho?d loæ possession some- what s;mply. ShTa'i?ea hav'n? been p&naHscd twice, p?y was takejF to thQ other end, but nothing was brought ¡ H buL A pretty tcuch by B?<;e:t put We'r on the go. centre-forward, however, was brought down, and fi-on'i 1?9 fre? kick Ball headed over the goal I:ii-. The referee's. riviregs did not at all please the 8,000.people present, and I at times JEERING -1 was indulged in. "Ver having forced Casey to ran out, Ailman at the other end cleared nicely when two men were on him. The home i"ght wing wa? not at all br!niant, and once again failed to intercept. Ball, from a tcuch by Bassett, shct wide. Andcrson was also showing signs of wo'?nfss, and twice in succession he uut poor touches into the centre, but later he had hard lines when Jones: cleared somewhat luckily. Half-time Score: OSWESTRY—1 goal. SWANSEA TOWN—Nil. II A'S AND b'S. i SCHSOUOY'S TRIAL MATCH AT I PQ.iTAR.hWi. A trial natch to select a team to play Swansea Schoolboys next Satur- day at Pan tarda we, tvas; played on the PoutGrdawe ground to-ouy. The turi was in splendid condition, and the weather favourable. The teams con- sisted of boys ltjpereseaiting Pontar- dawo Higher Elementary, Alltwen, Trebanos, Panteig and Cwnigor.se. Both sides played well, and had a good conception of tho game. After an ex- celent struggle of about twenty minutes Tom Evans, of the "B" team, secured the haU, and ran bodily along half the length of the field, and placed the leather behind A 's" goal-posts B. H. Lewis failed to convert. Half-time Score: I I-B" TEAM—1 try. I "A" TEAM—Nil In the second half play was ot an I even character, both bidets playing with determination. A penalty was given against "B" team, and Oswald Mor- gan, Cwmgcrse, made a splendid drop- kick, bu ttbo ball wont wide a fev. inche:. A Utt? lat?i' "A" side rushed the baH, with the result that Gn?

Mr. Justice isaiihache, giving judg- ment, .said he did not lay down any general principle of* law that cinema reproduction were in all cases colourable imitations or representations of sketches, but he thought in this par- ticular instance that the cinema. repro- duction of the sketch "Building a chicken house" was a colourable imita- tion of the performance on the music- hall Stage. In that respect Mr. Evans had committed a breach of Clause 9 of his contract, which was called a "barring" clause, and his Lordship made declaration to that effect, with nominal damages of one shilling, and plaintiffs would have the costs of the action. Judgment was entered accordingly.
