Description

(PSOT: “Any one who witnessed the game will admit that of all Junior clubs, they [Star & Enterprise] rank highest. It was played by both sides as finely, and as many excellent points were made, as will be seen in almost any match of the Senior players. … We shall watch with much interest the future games of these clubs, and advise those who wish to witness much pretty play, to be present at whatever game they may participate in. We are pleased to notice that the new role of “one umpire” works well, and is an improvement over the old one of “two umpires and referee.”)
