ARMY'S BOMBARDMENT OVERCOMES THE NAVY'S BLOCKADE

I thought very seriously of labelling this account 'Sacrilege at Sookunpoo' for quite honestly that is the only way to describe the circumstances whatever they may be.... that prevent football lovers from seeing a game of this standard.
Our thronging football thousands may see many other games during the season... they may, with partisan pride, admire the play of their own team but everyone who did NOT see this game is the poorer for having missed a thrilling display of fast, clean, open football,

Six Bull's-eyes By RAF Against St. Joseph's
By "SPIV"
The Royal Air Force returned from "Destination St. Joseph's" yesterday after scoring no fewer than six bull's-eyes in typical aerial bombardment style.
From the opening whistle the Airmen made no secret as to what their target was and every time they had the ball they took the shortest route and the fastest way to it, more often than not leaving the ball in the nôt and leaving the opposing defence still worldering whether they had been sitück by lightning.
