Only twice during the first part of the session was the Bingham goal in danger, and in each instance ' Wharton saved with ease. Toward the latter part of the first t half, Mannion made a try with a long - - shot, but the ball went wide. Half time ended with neither team showing show-ing much class, although the visitors displayed considerable more speed than did the home boys. A steady rain was falling when the second half started, with the Vikings keeping the Bingham backs quite busy. Hansen tried three corner kicks, but all went wide, and no damage dam-age resulted. Bingham pressed and Andreasen , saved from Carr. The Vikings again pressed, and severely threatened the home goal, but fine work by Wharton Whar-ton and the backs kept the dangerous Norsemen away from the coveted 1 mark. Twenty minutes after the second half was under way, Carr made a good run, and sent a low shot past Andreasen, but Referee Whitting claimed Carr off side, and the goal was not allowed. The visitors were allowed a foul kick, and with some clever work, , Captain Johansen of the Vikings car ried the ball within striking distance, and sent a shot past Wharton for the only score of the afternoon. The Bingham contingent failed to play up to its former ability, missing many chances to register. Several times during the game the wings sent beautiful centers, but no one was there to follow them up. The team work of the locals was the poorest they have shown this year.
