...play was slow and without life and the shooting was, for the most part, very weak. The second team frequently got the jump on the first by more active floor work and accurate passing. Neither team was sure in handling the ball and the passes were not swift enough, with the result that many were intercepted. S. Brown played a lively defensive game, allowing his man to score only one goal; Brooks too was strong on the offense in the first half. For the second team Carlisle and Furber did the best work.
