SWEEP SOLDIERS ASIDE 127 FOR TWO

Threadbare Army XI Hit Rockbottom Form After Early Misfortune

By I. M. MACTAVISH

Out of stop, out of form, out of grace ... and probably most

important of all. out of luck.

That just about sums up the fortunes of the threadbare Army side which was overwhelmed and finally completely swamped by a faster, cloverer, more versatile KMB eleven at Boundary Street yesterday afternoon.

Even that wide margin hardly represents accurately the difference between the two sides. KMB were a team in what we have come to regard as in the best sense of the word.

The Busmen won handsomely by six goals to nil.
