EntNazos, April 9th: --
The oven-a-side tournament furried | out by the Edinburgh Rugby clubá was in every respect a success. Victory féll to Watsonians, the runners up being Heriot's (EP) The standard of play varied considerally, but generally it was quite good, rapecially thuring the first half of tie: When the pace began to tell there was a marked falling away, Pertaps the best tie was that between Stewart's and Heriot's in the semi-final. The energy Herios, had to expend in this game cer tainly prejudiced their chances in the final, although it should be said for their opponents, Watsonians, that they had played one tie more.

Rangers, in winning the championship for the steerd Mccaive year, are due unstinted praise for their consistency and power, and they have won the championship 13 times in all, their position and influence in League football have been manifest. In the present campaign, they were only once beaten at home, and three times, in all, in the 33 games in which they havo engaged. The champions' best run was from August till the end of December. during which time they played 20 games without defeat and with the loss of total of only six goals. But their whole record in these days of intensified com- petition is noteworthy, and shch as fully entitles them to their well-won bonour.
