It would appear as if the clubs occupy- ing the higher positions on the Scottish League table were wavering, sa follow ing upon the comparative success of lowly placed clubs the previous week, only Motherwell of the leading four clubs won their engagement. Celtic and Heart of Midlothian had the strongest opposition, and both may be said to have come reasonably well out of their journeys by effecting drawn games on opponents" grounds. The comparative security of Celtic's position, and the fact that the Scottish Cup-ties are due, probably in clined the leaders to restrain themselves and avoid risks, and on that account even the loss of four goals in one match fill not be regarded as anything worse than a temporary lapse on the part of their defence.
