CL1THKU0E*S 31DNAWAY VICTOBV. Clitheroe had a runaway victory on Sat nr-


day, will'll llrnnswick Celtic visiieil Shaw Bridge, the fixturi* having been brought for­ ward to permit o f nioi-o vacant dates at the end of tiio season. The ground was frost hound and with the hall playing all sorts of prank.s the playor.s found it more than a liltlo lUnicult to* make progros.s. Clithcroc wi're turn'll the superior team alllinngh not at l ull .stix'iigth and won with ridicnlims ease hy eight goats to one. The opening go.al


was scoi'ctl hy a Brunswick full hack, who in atle'inpting an overhead cloai'ance. skied the hall which dropped jnsL niulor the bar, coni- plelely deceiving the custodian. Soon aflcr- ward.'i Irolainl put across a perfect centre which 1/eyland crashed into the not. Kindle wa-s fouled in the {>onaUy area, but the referee awarded a free kick ont-ide. Ihnvkor’s shot was charged down, but .Dodgeon rnshod in and .scoreil. Snape headed the fourth, from Hindle’s centre, and thi.s wa« the state of


the game at half time. Snapo added lii.s second point iinmediatoly


ou ro.snming and very shortly afterwards ■Wilson put on a .sixth goal from a penalty. Afterwards Ireland rnshoil through on his own ;ind .scored, and this was followed by a goal to Brunswick, who pla.vod up plnckily in .sjiite of their heavy arrear.*«. Snape was badl.v brought down in going through and Ireland converted from the spot, the final being S—1 in favour of Clithoroe. Hixon played in goal for Clithoroe and had


<1 lhankle.ss job. He was called upon to .save on only about tliree occasions. Tho harks and half-hacks lijid little difiiciilly in keciiing


their opponents in check and the forwards did almo.st as they pleased. To-morrow Clitheroc visit Stanhill to t>lay

CONOBEGA- 'j'lie match In'twecn those toam.s at Chat-


hurn on S a tn n la y was of a very poor descrip­ tion. Neither side showed anything like docent, foolliall and the gann* was about tl i- worst seen on the village gnmnd this season. ■\Vlialley. in goal, and .Foe Green, at hack, wore the only two player.' on tho home '^nle to show a iiyt liin g like g<Hjd form. The vei- tors had a good left winger who was ea;.ily ilu ' b(‘s t of a modioer«‘ lot. Chalhnrn bad nnnieroijs ehances of >roring. bm ihey fs'il'd u tte r ly .

an end to end character for 20 minutes a thrnstfnl move on the part of tho Kead right wing enabled Baxcndalo to put across an ae- (•urate centre, which UeaUm converted to register the visitors’ initial goal.
