Newton plays their first home match for the season to-day when Bridgwater will be the visitors. Last Saturday with the assistance of the redoubtable S. M. J. Woods, Bridgwater defeated Exeter by a goal (placed by Woods) and a try to a try. It is hoped that Woods will make the journey today, but whether he does or not a good game is sure to be witnessed and Newton should triumph with this team: Furze, back; Pictor, Pearse, Pinsent and Cocks, three-quarters; Brooks and Lias, half-backs, Morrison, Hobson, Curtis, Cowley, Dunn, Francis, Johnson and Elliott, forwards: Kick-off 3.30, Referee, Mr. W. White, Torquay.
