-27-. sent Booth over. Dyer goaling. Larrington was responsible for the next score, cutting through brilliantly; this wp.s followed by a further break by Dyer and Mason was sent full tilt for the line, diving over for a fine try. Mason, who in the game scored five fine tries, was over again soon after this from a solo ef fort. A reverse pass from Dyer to Larrington saw the latter over,Mason hitting the post with the goal attempt. The forwards now took a turn and led by Booth swept down. Booth crowning a good attempt with a try. Mason scored again, and Just before the end Larrington cut through and cleverly threw a long pass to Mason who raced over for his fifth try. It was no one-sided game, for the Marists team were the heavier, and put in some spirited rallies, but the College side played inspired rugger. They could do nothing wrong and showed a far finer appreciation of the finer points of the game than they are given credit for. Mason's return to the side on the wing proved that,with pace on the wings the threes are a danger ous proposition. The movements were really dazzling. We hope, to see more of this. While the threes did most of the scoring, they could not have done that had the forwards not done the spade work. The pack worked very well together, and Booth and Nichols seemed to be ever on the ball.

We were undoubtedly lucky to win this game. In the first half Marists were continually attacking, and their score came as no surprise, for our forwards were not inclined for any hard work. Lowe was a noticeable exception. It really seemed as though we would be well beaten. After two good attempts to goal, Henry landed the tliird safely, and shortly after this J.Thomas was given his only chance on the wing. Slipping past his opposite number he crowded on all pace and simply fled for the line, with the whole school encouraging him. That he got there was due to real determination, speed, and a fine .sense of swerving.lt was as fine a try as we have seen for a long time. Henry now took a hand and saved the line repeatedly by clevor anticipation and judicious kicking. A lucky v/5.n 1 Smith L.
