WIN 33-12
At the Sydney Sports Ground, before 400 people. Western Suburbs were outclassed. The winners gave a fiue display, especially in the second half. South Sydney Kicked off, and the ball rolled out near the corner. The Suburban team gradually drove them back to their own territory. Souths soon worked back to the other 25. They heeled from a scrummage, and Maidment passed to McCabe, to Butler, on to Thompson, who sent it out to Collier on the wing, and he completed the movement by crossing near the corner. Maidment failed to convert. S.S. 3 to nil. The visitors smartly worked the leather to the goal-line, where Patterson secured in a scramble and scored near the corner. Meacalf failed at goal. 3 all. Easterbrook now retired injured, his place being taken by S. Shaw. The local team pressed. Inside half-way McCabe put in a sharp movement and passed to A.Butler, who ran Nicholls into a good position, thus enabling him to score near the posts. Maidment failed at goal. S.S. 6 to 3. Hale now left the field, and Leveson went on in his place. Shortly after the kick-out A.Butler started a rush, which resulted, in Groves scoring South Sydney's third try. Davis failed to convert. S.S. 9 to 3. Half-time.
South Sydney had a cakewalk in the second half. Soon after the kick-off A.Butler sent a pass to Brown on the wing. He kicked, and following on, scored a try, which Maidment converted. S.S. 14 to 3. Leveson caught the ball from the return kick on the 25 line and ran to half-way, where he passed to Davis, who sped ahead hard and straight and passed to McCabe, who went on and scored. From Maidment's kick the ball hit the post. S.S. 17 to 3. Wall executed a clever run and beat Hallett, who, however, followed and upset him. Western Suburbs were awarded a free, from which Medcalf landed a goal. S.S. 17 to 5. Again South Sydney were penalised, and Medcalf added the two points. S.S. 17 to 7.

Second Grade - Semi-Final Round
v Redfern, Sydney Sports Ground, 2:00pm
WIN 9-0
Redfern has successfully protested its Round 10 game where Newtown used a disqualified player, during the week. The protest was upheld and result reversed.
Played at Sports Ground. Plae was keen from the start. From a rush dymant secured and scored, but failed to convert. A pretty passing rush looked promisining for Redfern, but the ball went astray when the movement was almost complete. Darmody picked up and short punted over the full-back, a race for the line resulting which ended in Redfern forcing. Half-time came with Redfern attacking dangerously near the line. Soon after opening the second term Downey ran from 25 to 25 and transfered to Chisholm who evaded a tackle and scored. Leary failed to increase the score. Dalton added another try, after an evasive run. Leary again failed to convert. South Sydney won by 9 to nil.
