Today's rugger match at Boundary Street between the Club and Army promises to be no less exciting than last week's stirring struggle between Navy and Club and should, providing the spirit of St Andrew doesn't hang loo heavily on the civilians, result in another first class encounter. The opening Pen- tangular Match of the day sees the Police oppose the RAF and at 2.15 the Club seconds face up to the 27 HAA, RA.

The Army are fielding their strongest fiftoon. Innes is Goldschmidt and it is in this department that the game is most likely to be wan' or lost. Laws and Clayden have two hard running wings and as a combination have shown much more style than their opposites and, if given an equal share of the ball, will probably edge the Club out.
