GALA WINKELSO RUGBY SEVEN-A-SIDES
T. F. DORWARD AND R. W. BARRIE SHOW FINE FORM
(By AIR MAIL)
Glasgow, September 1,
By winning the seven-a-side tournament promoted by the Kelso club at Poynder Park-the second of three tournaments which pre- cede the Rugby season proper in Scotland Gala showed that their victory at Earlston the previous week was no mere flash of form. At Kelso they were undoubtedly the best seven on view, and the mere fact that they scored 69 points in their three ties is an adequate indication of their scoring strength.
At Kelso, of course, their seven was strengthened considerably by the inclusion of their internationalist scrum half-back and cap- tain, T. F. Dorward, and J. Dun, and these two were outstanding throughout.
In the final against Hawick, J. Caskey, the youthful Edin- Dorward was at his cleverest and burgh Academical, who · created. he made. opening after opening. such a good impression in Gala's Dun showed a pace and thrust in winning seven at Earlston, was K.

TWO CASUALTIES
Gala's forward trio gave them a good share of the ball from the- scrums-although they were held by Hawick in the final--and it was noteworthy that both they and "the Teries" had to bring in substitutes. J. Gray came into the Gala pack iņ^ place of J. Denham, who sustained concussion in the second round, and T. Elliot had to don Hawick's green jersey when . G. Brown wrenched a knee against Kelso.
Special mention must be made. of the performance of W. Y. Aitken, Gala's hefty scrummager, who wicked ten goals in thirteen at- tempts. Many of them were from awkward angles, and the fact stands as one of the best of its kind at a seven-a-side tournament:
R. W. BARRIE SHINES
Hawick, with R. W. Barrie: giving them a splendid lead, made a brave. show, and beat Kelso, in a stirring second round tie, but they had had an extra game to play, and seem- a bit leg-weary in the final. Barrie, making his first appearance on the field since an operation 18 months ago, was about the best for- ward on view.
ed
A feature of the other ties was the defeat of Melrose, last year's winners, by Langholm, who arrived late as a result of a car break- down. The lively Langholm men knocked Melrose out of their stride, and hung on to a slender-lead to the end. Edinburgh City Police, with their forwards unable to obtain the ball in the scrums, went out rather tamely to Kelso.
In a very one-sided final, Dun had four tries for Gala and J. B. Lees one try, and Altken converted on three occasions. T. Fraser had two tries for Hawick and J. Broomfield one try,
