NOTES FOR TO-MORROW
[By "Roamer"]
Since writing last week's notes the Council of the Football Asso- ciation have awarded two points to the K.O.S.R. first team and to BL.A.M.C. These are in respect of the fixtures against Pulico and R.A, respectively when the fatter teams failed to put in an
appearance. The only first division match to take place on Wednesday laat was
between K.O.S.B. and Navy when the teams shared the points. The Borderers now hold a lead of four points over their nearest rivals, the Somersets, but the latter have three matches in hand so that the posi- tion is quite likely to be reversed before long.
