A clever bout of heading by the Legion forwards was stopped by Doug las who cleared twice In succession. Merchants forwards were the better line but their shooting was weak. Currle was everywhere the play was and his Intelligent? anticipation and distribution was a feature. The general run of play In the first half indicated that the Legion defence would be tried out when the Merchants had the hill In their favor and such was the case. Baptie had a try on his own but Merchants had the major part of the play and, after A. Dickens and McKay had combined nicely, the latter shot high over. Currle went close from a free kick and Chen-oski's beautiful drive Just missed the far upright. Baptie and Hodg-klnson got away and Menzies caught and threw clear. Smith saved well twice In succession. From Chenoskl's corner kick Albert Dlc-4 kens headed a goal for the Merchants. Play now brightened up and became more Interesting the ball travelling from end to end. Woodslde went forward for the Legion and Baptie went half but the Legion forwards were weak. Then Amor was left unmarked and his ! easy shot was misjudged by Smith and the Merchants were two up. i Smith, just after, fisted away a couple of fine shots and Merchants were easy winners by two goals.
