Football: Mr. Knight’s XV v Newton College: A most interesting match took place between the above teams on the College ground yesterday afternoon, resulting in a win for Mr. Knight’s XV by four goals and three tries to two goals and two tries. The “boys” had the best of the first half’s play, but the senior team made things warm for them in the latter part of the game, and gave them scarcely a chance of increasing their score. For the College, Butland got in twice, O’Neill once and Windsor drop-kicked a goal, while for the winners Lias obtained two tries, Mapleton, Sellicks, Knight, and Hudson one each, and Ashford dropped a goal: Teams: Mr. Knight’s XV. Hayward, back; Knight, Ashford, and Mapleton, three-quarter backs; Lias and Ball, half backs; Hudson, Williams, Bennett, Sellicks, Alsop, Francis, Wilson, H. Tozer, and King, forwards: Newton College: Pinsent, back; Wallen, Templer and Windsor, three-quarter backs; Hammond and Light half backs; O’Neill, Currie, Stork, Villiers-Stuart, Owen-Jones, M. Everett, Lovett, Butland and B. Everett, forwards. Umpires: Messrs. A. Hewitson and R. Johnson. Referee: Rev. W. T. Kerry.

Rugby: Opening of the Football Season: Newton v. Dartmouth: … (review of likely team includes) … The forwards are mostly old and tried hands. Ball the captain again leads the van. Then there are the veterans J. Challcombe, Inch, and F. Williams, whilst Sellicks, Alsop, O’Neill, and Hussey make up a capital lot of forwards. There is a possibility this season of running the same team throughout. Next week the fifteen will be definitely shaped out. Pinsent will probably take back, Ingles takes a place at three-quarters, instead of Windsor. If however, Windsor is able to play, Hewitson will go forward. O’Neill and Hussey will give place to two of the following: Rowell, Baker, Stitson, and Robinson. The arrangements for the season are well nigh completed. The ground is in capital condition … (review of game v. Dartmouth – Pinsent did not play). …

The Souvenir for Mr. Duke, K.C.: A Mark of his Admirers’ Appreciation: Will you be of the 5,000? A Widespread Response: Yesterday we gave the names of those who had responded to the suggestion made by “A Unionist Worker” almost before the ink was dry in which the suggestion was printed. Today we print a further list. Intense feeling prevails: People were … yesterday whether, at no distant day, Mr. Duke may not yet be the member for Exeter. That we need not discuss: But if speculation did end in so happy a result, the rejoicing would be universal. The only thing we will do now is repeat the advice we have given so often in the past twelve months; Put your house in order. If this advice had been acted upon, and people who are now sore enough at the result of the election, had done their duty, Mr. Duke would have been re-elected on Saturday last. … Below are those who yesterday sent their contributions before the receipts were made up last evening, and so helped to start the 5,000 Shillings: … (long list includes) …  J. D. Pinsent … 1:

Dangerous Driving: Mr. Arthur Glanville, of Portsmouth, represented John Douglas Pinsent, of 37, Auckland Road East, Southsea, who was summoned for driving his car dangerously at Horndean, on September 21. Arthur Frederick Masters, a decorator, of 7, St. Alban’s Road, Southsea, said that on September 21 he was riding a bicycle from Havant to Horndean, accompanied by his young lady on another bicycle. They passed between the Horndean War Memorial and the Red Lion and had gone about 30 yards round the corner in the direction of Portsmouth, when the defendant’s car, which was proceeding in the same direction, passed them, the rear near mudguard catching the handlebars of the witness’s machine. Both he and the young lady were thrown from their machines. — Miss Doris Clark, a corset maker, of 11, Ceveland Road, Southsea, corroborated. — Archibald Hobbs, a grocer, of London Road, Horndean who saw the accident, said that the defendant had plenty of room to pass the two cycles. — Mr. Glanville contended that Masters wobbled as the rear of the car was passing him. —The Bench found the case proved, and a fine of £2 with £2 2s 6d costs was imposed.
