apiece the visiting rugbylsts after being held to an 0-0 score in the first thirty-five minutes of play struck hard and often in the final half to score three touchdowns, one of which was converted and added a beautiful field goal to mzikc their victory a convincing one.

Many Outstanding

And outstanding in their victory was the work of Captain “Butch” Min-y. fast and elusive backfield man who scoring a, touchdown af- tcr u run of fifty-five yards kicked one of the most beautiful field goals ever seen on a, local gridiron. The fast backfield star's effort, from about flftecn yards out practically put the finishing touches on the 5111110 and although Saints tried (lcspcrately to get back on even terms they could not surmount the attack the Antlgonish players threw against them. Before Mury’: two outstanding efforts, Tark Walsh had opened the scoring early in the sec- ond half bucking ltls wnv over from a lineup ten yards out; this try was unconverted. Then came lvluryls two brilliant efforts to run the score to 10-0 then as a parting gesture Clarence Campbell, fast and stocky three-quarter man of the visitors aficr receiving the ball from a. scrum on the Saints 25-yard line paraded right over the line to score the Xaverlans third touchdown with McNeil making the convert for th-e two extra points to make the visitors score complete.

For the remainder of the half Saints had the better of territory play but could not cross the line for the try that would have given them the lead. During the 35 minute session. John Fecncy, tailing up in the scrum for the visitors suffered a dislocated elbow that forced him to the sidelines for the remainder of fhc game: he was replaced ov Neil McKinuon.
