Newton v. Torquay Town: This encounter took place at Newton, the home team winning by a dropped goal to nil. The game was of an uninteresting character throughout. The goal was kicked by Pinsent who dropped the ball over the line from the “50” line. Torquay were penned in within their own “25” the whole of the game, Newton being unable to break their defence.
