For three hours Russ Hall of Seattle fought this issue, but thé commit- tee decided in favor of the home aggre- gation. The Seattle man had to retire, a defeated candidate. The struggle to retain Mohler has been a long and bitter one, and Ewing, Gleason and Hall, representing San Francisco and Seattle, have been fighting desperately to secure his services. All the wisé prophets thought Seattle would finally land the prize, but the decision of last night puts these forecasts in the shade. Before the meeting convened both the San Francisco directors, Cal Ewing and Gleason, and Hall of Seattle agreed to abide by the decision of the committee, consisting of Morley, McCreedie and Fish- er, and take the matter out of the hands of the national commission, to which it had been referred several weeks ago. When the matter came up for argument both Ewing and Hall told of how they had signed up the little second baseman. Ewing showed where he had secured Mohler's signature to a contract on Janu- prove a drawn contest. In the first period the Albion Rovers scored one goal, while the San Francisco eleven could not get past the Albion goal- keeper. The Albion goal was scored by Milligan, center halfback. In less than a minute after the kick- off in the second period the San Fran- cisco forwards carried the ball down the field and Watters scored a goal. .This made the score even. The Albion Rovers put the ball into the net a sec- ond time, and, as no further score was made, won the match two goals to one. J. H. Fewster was referee. The teams lined up as follows: Positions. -Goalkeeper ‘Right back Left back Right hal enter haifback. Left halfback.
