Something went wrong at the score-board at this point, but fortunately Johnson's big lead prevented any argument about it. The game had been called 1,156- 1,002. Johnson was given a miss and then set down to run out with one break. He held the balls well together and, thinking he had won, contented himself with just scoring at 44. The marker, however, called for one point more, so Johnson smilingly went back to endeavour to pot the white from a difficult position and failed. Porter replied with 13 and left an easy shot, so the game went to Johnson at 1,200-1,022. Johnson averaged 10.2, Porter 8.6.
After the match, Capt. E. I. M. Barrett congratulated both players and thanked all those responsible for the. arrangements. Mr. J.

Bush, on behalf of the Lusitano Club, also took possession of the League shield for last season and will shortly receive it again for—this season.
