Korth Adelaide ciotinoad their ran of wins by defeating Eost Torrens on Saturday. The difference oi one goal gives a good indication ol the p'.ay. East Torrens were without th* services of Pearce. Tbe play opened np in favor of East Torrens, -whose centre field were eariv on the aggressive. Peake <Sorth) relieved, and the Sorth forward line obtained possession. Some quick passes in front of gual pave Lawrence his opportunity, and he snapped up a oi? one. PJay went -iff well in favor of Sorth. and Flavel secured, but his chance was spoiled by ftoyco nbo cleared to Davis. A nice pass to Hall was spoiled by_ Glover (Sonb), and in the rush Thomson (Ttftrens) secured. nig try was turned aside by Lee. Brisk play characterised the opening of the second term, but the das!i diminished somewhat on both side*. Torreus were the faster, ai.d SJiulz received a nice pass from Tillcman, which he quickly siat on io XidlL An excellent scries of body movements secured a goal for this player. His goal was replied to by a brace of aoale by Flavel <his only faring shots). T!iey vrere well tried for, and came a? the result of 6ne farcing tactics. Bovce allowed himself on these occasions to be pwhed too far back into goal. iMe remedied this immed iatply, and thereafter kopt F^vel out more, and insdentally kept that player from scoring. Hall snapped another nice goal for Ton-f ne, and was playing nelL S?e fine tossles were goinf: on round the centre, i but the p!?«rs -were fjirly evenly matched. San<Jery (Sorth) «rentiuUjr broke througa with a laioe fibt run, and registered bis side's fourth • ?oal. East TorT«ns had the measure at the northerners in the third term- Tlieir fonrart i ane was closely checked. Uyfle came tfjwK;h early and netted a nice sllot Thomson (Torrens) coon followed with a hard eliot, which beat t'w goalie. Another viffotous attack liy the K-irth centre-SeliJ pave Lawrence possession, but his shot misrtd, and Watt then took a hand. Hig shot was slapped by TilJ?man, who passed to Sdralz. to Thomson. who rlever'y dodged Brjtk, and scored hie ses'jhd, an-1 the siot's fourth. so?L Wi.h the Mores 5 to 4 afraircst tlwtfi, Turreno infused more vijror iuto their frame-.

In this manner he passed to LanTence. who shot ■ clever gJai. ; wxxe considerably heartened at this, and played better during the remainder of Ihe re.-m. The students were playing well together, at the start of tlie third quarter, and exhibited some nice movements from centre lield, but they were not able to sustain them past the forward line, where Harri«on on several occasions held up Uie advance. On bcin? transferred to the Torrent forward line, Tamlin, with a clean break through, !*ee:vea a. nice pass from tt'infon, aiic" registered his fifth, aud the side's sixth goal. Cook (University) battled hard to set beynnd Bettieon in lite/ last term, but Jhe big- Torrens defender was sure. Davis secured iar linivccsitv, but Jones cheeked, and got the lull, passing to Edjre, who was kept tJO far out to do much pond. An eieci'ent try by Boath. was turned aside by Dawkins (University) in goal. The last term was of a very even nature being fan! throogJiout. The pace sf the match had been well maintained. Xo additions to the score tnok place in this quarter, although the students were applying- the pressure Tjrrens were able to withstand the shock, McGregor (torrene eoalkeeper) making: some spectacular saves.
