His name is Charles Drinkwater, of Goodson-road, Willesden, N.W., and the game in which he leaped from obšturify was play-]+ ed here against Chelses — who drew 2-2 — before a crowd of 50,000. Five minutes after the kick-off, the ball came to him. In his own words, he "gathered" it with his right foot, swept back his left and shot ---- and the ball flashed into the net
Somewhere in the wildly excited crowd, trying desperately to push forward and secure a view of the paying field, were Drink- water's parents, his 33-years-old grandfather, and 11 other mem- bers of his family. They arrived too late to see him score the goal; they could only listen to the rolling cheers for him and hear his name run like wildfire round the ground.-

"You know," said Drinkwater to me as we sat in his apart-] ment in Birmingham. “I didn't expect to get that goal. It was almost as much a surprise to me as it must have been to the goalkeeper.
Tremendously Thrilling
"Of course, it was tremendous“ ly thrilling to acore like that in my first match. I
was very ex- cited on the way to the ground, bat while I was in the dressing room I felt pretty confident that I should be all right when the game began.
"Until I scored I had not taken much part in the play. I saw the| ball suddenly coming to me over) the heads of the backs, and, al-
most before I knew it, it was in the net and my colleagues were shaking me by the hand.”.
