Ilitthock and Millborn Star j Hitchcock and Millburn were the heroes of the deciding triumph. The young Dumber 2 played one of the best games of his career, dashing into the thick of scrim mages to send the ball out with long, powerful strokes, riding off oponents with infinite skill and scoring from, all angles of the field. His total of five goals was the highest individual score of the afternoon though he was closely pressed by Webb who tallied four times. . Millburn j was a tower on de fense. He was forced to shoulder an additional burden through the loss' of Stevenson and broke most of the British t attacks with his alertness and powerful driving. The challengers found him im penetrable ; at critical moments while-on the attack this brilliant ; I veteran playing in his sixth inter national cup series, often started drives that paved the way for one of his team mates to score. - Webb had a difficult assign ment for he was opposed to the spectacular Lacey, captain and back of the challengers, but he did his Job Jwell. ; Lacey had upset, almost single handed, the American attack in the first game at times, but today he found few opportunities to get free, with Webb ever vigilant.; I CLUB PERCENTAGES 1 PACinO COAST LEAGUE ' j Won itt Vet.
