Reserves Win In Comfort

Footcraft Takes the Eye at Douglas Park.

The young Dons won more comfortably at Hamilton than the score indicates. With the hurricane in their favour in the second half, they completely dominated play and gave Morgan anything but a restful forty-five minutes.

Pretty Work.

Cumming and his backs rendered yeoman service in the first half against the wind, but in the second period they had something of a picnic. The winners played delightful football all through the piece, and in the closing stages the footwork of Mutch, McDermid, and Johnston was a treat to watch.
Armstrong was a lively forager from start to finish and had a notable share in his side's victory.

Glorious Effort.

Donald was ever in the thick of it and a shot of his from forty yards out will long be remembered in Hamilton. It was glorious effort and Morgan had to be on his toes to avert a certain goal.

Doubtful Goal.

Adam and Armstrong were the scorers for the Dons, and O'Donnell got Hamilton's only goal, which was a doubtful one. Cumming and others, in the victor's team, protected the referee's decision, but to no purpose.
Hamilton's best were Morgan, Hunter, Cox, and Young, but the side all over was uneven in every department.
