TH LETICS L N SOCCER. j Commercial, 2-BOYS, High, 0, Cn Thursday, December 3, at our field before only forty persons, Commercial defeated Boys' High in the last game of the 1908-1909 soccer series. The score stood 2 goals to none. The day was very cold, which probably kept the fellows from coming out to cheer the team on. Neither eleven was able to score during the first half, though, at. times, the ball was within shooting distance. High kicking for the net lost several good chances. In the second period of play, after some exciting work around the net, Ziegler shot our hrst goal, and a few minutes after, Cooke made the second score. Laughlin, Souvil-le, and Benedict were especially good for Commercial, while Shanholt and Kennedy did well for High School.

The o'EL1T1C.'W3.S'2l1'1 exciting one, the play- in d ers being cheered on by several hundre tic rooters. Belden did some enthusias D exceptionally brilliant work forour side, and it was mainly .through his efforts that Adelphi did not succeed in rolling up a much higher score than they did. At the end of the first half, Adelphi led by but one point, and not until the second half was nearly over did they get far in the lead. Five minutes before the whistle blew, however, they got together and succeeded in scoring four baskets in rapid succession. The line-up follows: ' Commercial C185 Position.
