6 HIGHLAND LIGHT INFANTRY CHRONICLE.<br />

FOOTBALL MATCH.<br />

4TH H.L.I. V. BELHAVEN JUNIORS.<br />

<strong>The</strong> above game took place at Hamilton on<br />

Christmas Day, but owing to several of our<br />

team being on furlough, we were unable to<br />

place our best men in the field.<br />

<strong>The</strong> first half produced some good football,<br />

although the state of the ground was anything<br />

but in a condition for accurate play ..<br />

<strong>The</strong> visitors scored first, which was closely<br />

followed by the equaliser from our inside right.<br />

Play in the second half was of jt very fast<br />

and exciting nature, but our forwards could<br />

not find the net again, and the visitors won<br />

comfortably by 3 to 1.<br />

After the match, the visiting team were<br />

entertained to tea in the Soldiers's Home, where<br />

a very enjoyable evening was spent. Speeches<br />

were made by both captains, and the Belhaven<br />

skipper in his remarks thanked the home team<br />

for such an enjoyable time, and hoped that<br />

another vacant date would see the same teams<br />

lined up again.<br />
