INTER-STATE SCHOOL.
CAWDOR, Monday.
Three boys have been selected from the Country team which recently, defeated Brisbane to represent the State in the interstate soccer football matches in New South Wales this week. They are: Eric Browne, left full-back; Jeff Browne, right wing forward (Cawdor); and Vincent Hanrahan, left wing forward (Geham). Considerable disappointment is felt amongst the Country team that Frank and Parker were not included. Other centres have greater representation, although considerably weaker than the Country team. However, it is the old story of Queen-street influence. The boys leave by the Sydney mail on Thursday.

FOOTBALL.
BRITISH ASSOCIATION. BALGOWAN, .7; OAKEY, 0.
At Oakey on Saturday last. Oakey Western Suburbs entertained Balgowan F.C. in the premiership competition, the visitors winning by 7 goals to nil. Mr. A. Squelch was referee. W. Kennedy, late of the Casuals F.C. played centre forward, and was responsible for five goals, two being from penalties, while Murphy and Williams registered one each. Although Balgowan won by a big majority, the game was not as one-sided as it would appear to have been. Oakey are a good combination, and all are young players. Toowoomba Soccer supporters will have the pleasure of seeing both these teams in action next Saturday in Queen's Park, when I am quite sure good football will be played. Balgowan are a very strong team, and the play on Saturday. was very clean and interesting. W. Kennedy, although a masterpiece at fullback, shone to great perfection as centre forward. Both Casuals and Diggers were informed when he played in Toowoomba that centre forward was his position, but would not take any heed. The schools' committee would like all the boys to see these two teams play in Toowoomba and take particular notice of the combination. Supporters are asked to keep next Saturday afternoon vacant, and roll up in good numbers.

BRITISH ASSOCIATION.
Cheltenham, 3 goals, beat Sturt, 1 goal. This match, played on Saturday, was the best game of soccer seen this season. Right till the final the result was in doubt, when Roberts, from a breakaway and a low ground shot, put the match to Cheltenham's credit. The ball travelled quickly from one end to the other. Gormlie missed several opportunities to score and place Sturt in the lead. From a pass from the back lines Croger saved, and centring well Robertson had a breakaway and from a great shot gave Sturt the first goal. Cheltenham came away, the outside wings playing great football. The ball was placed well into goal, and Sanstrom saved. Jackman centred, and from a melee Robertson pushed it through. Halftime arrived with the teams 1 goal each. From the kick-off Sturts had the better of the game, and had their opponents on the defensive. The defence proved sound, and Sturts lost opportunities. Robertson (Sturt) and Cameron (goalie for Cheltenham) collided, and the former ricked his knee. Cheltenham came away and Brown handled in the penalty area. Cameron converted the resulting penalty kick into a goal. Cheltenham, 2 goals; Sturt 1. Roberts with a daisy cutter put Cheltenham 3 up.
