Abstract

The first football match of the term was played in the London Mission Ground between A. C. & R. I., and London Mission High School teams. There was a fairly good number of spectators to witness the game. The match was however evidently one- sided, the Agriculturists having shown their distinct superiority over their opponents on account of their fine combination. After a few minutes the first blood was drawn by Chellam of A. C. & R. I. Play still danced round the Mission goal and Samuel Nallathambi had his share by scoring one more with the help of Venkataraman who made a good pass. The Missions tried their utmost but all their efforts proved fruitless. Kuppuswami the Vice Captain-a new addition to the team kept the other forwards in check. The defence of the day was due to Ramana Rai and Muthuswami. The A. C. & R. I. won the match by two to one.
