'CRANVILLE GAINS LEAD
IN SOCCER TITLF
Weakened Adamstown Loses to
Goodyear by a Goal
ALL TEAMS HAVE LOST POINTS
(By "The Onlooker.")
No team in the State Soccer League's championship
lhas won every game outright-and only four rounds of fix
tures have been~played this season. Granville lost a point
at District Park yesterday when Newcastle City held it to a
draw.
Granville is now the leader in the race, because Adams
town, until yesterday the only other tindefeated team, lost
to Goodyear, its weakened side doing particularly well to
concede only one goal. Adamstown and Wallsend are level,
a point behind Granville.
Wallsend had no trouble to defeat Leichhardt-Annan
dale, and Weston, after conceding the first goal, defeated
Cessnock Caledonia. Another unexpected result was the
defeat of Metters on its own ground by St. George.
THE LEAGUE'S pointo ocore table lies
now amaimed nomec order and,
althiough still in its preliniinary atages, is
ina stage that proaobes diecusalon.
liranville, with aeren palate, is one ahead
nf Adamostowniind Walloend which, in
turn, are a point in front of St. George
*iid Goodyear. Weston and Mletteis are
together- on tear poiats--aaaiiexisected*
13' law viace for' 2lettero, which invari
ably begins a scasan as if it will nweep
all hefore, it and then loses its challenge
towards the finiah. Newcastle City,
Ceossock Caledooia, and( Gladcsville-ltyde
have cadh scored two pointo, aod Woson
enallulli, oine poiints las R Oe the list.
Altlioagh it is iinifrtiinate that Ailamis
toasn lies lid to forfeit its iiiiilfciteil
record, the positisiis mast be regarded as
nenerally satisfectary ts the North.
Adamotosrn aiii Wallsendl will, it ocemso,
carry the burden of the North's bid M
the return of the chiamspisonliip, for the
last tsrs seasons held by s Sydney elub,
but perhaps there will lie somie assistance
ini the tesh from Weotoii ahich may~ yet
play a lais part ini the chiampioaohip.
