Nats turned "out two new players in Boyd and lliott. Boyd is well known to lo- 1 fans, having played with Nats iF the last two seasons. Elliott has n out of the game for several £ seasons, and signalled his come- Fe back by scoring three goals. It was a well pleased crowd 'who left the Stadium after the game. Nats won the toss and Lancs kicked off. Soon the locals took up the offensive, and gave the Lancs defence a gruel- ing time, It was early evident that Nats were the better balanced team, The first goal came early. After ten minutes of play Elliott opened the scoring. Getting possession close in, he fooled the defence with a body swerve and beat Wignall ends up. It was a good goal and showed plainly that Elliott knew his foot- ball. The second goal came soon af- ter. Sturch drew the goalie and tipped the ball into the empty net. Up to this time Nats dominated the play and had the Lancs tied up in all departments. The combination shown on Saturday was as good as could be seen anywhere in the pro- vince. Up to half time there was no further scoring. In the few attacks the Lancs made, they were either turned by the strong Nats defence, Cran J i Buy one -- prove to your own satisfaction that 10c is sufficient to pay for a satisfac- tory cigar.

In the second half Nats opened briskly, and were soon down on Wignall's charge. Wignall seemed to be rattled about some decision of the referee, and his play suffer- ed in consequence. He was fortun- ate in not being sent to the showers for his conduct, which was any- thing but shorting. In another raid Jarvie went through on his own to score Nats' third goal. Soon after the same player added another. At this time Lancs seemed to get new life, and were often in the Nats territory. During one of these raids Lancs scored their lone tally. Again Nats went on the rampage, and El- liott finished a good forward move- ment to score the fiifth goal. Lancs were all in now and were merely waiting for the final whis- tle but before it sounded Elliott again scored. This was the hat trick for Nats new centre, and the final tally of the game. great game from start to finish, ana if Nats continue with this elass of play there is no doubt of where the silverware will land ,thjs season.
