Amazing Speed Of The Spurs
COPY-BOOK MOVES THAT DAZED
SUNDERLAND
(Special Air-Mall Service)
Tottenham 3, Sunderland 1.
Landon, Oct. 10.
Speed, lightning speed; in fact, fork ed lightning. That is what the Tot tenham attack must have seemed to the Sunderland defenders. It never seemed to strike in the same place twice. Some of the moves were be wildering in their change of direction, and great credit is due to Shaw and and Murray in making futile the ma jority of them.
They were only beaten twice the third goal came from a cortier-and although that was the measure of their discomfiture they can be congratulated on stopping a host of other moves that always looked goalfinders.
Evans and McCormick played what is often described as a “blinder." Their | speed, their footwork and change of direction at the unexpected moment got the halves hopelessly beaten on Uccasions, and with Hall. Hunt and O'Callaghan gallantly responding, big tally of goals always seemed pos sible. The Sunderland defenders wore not always particular as to how the movement was checked, but there was no real fouling, although O'Callaghan and Howa were knocked out, the latter having to receive the attention of the club doctor for stitches over the right eye, caused by an accidental kick from Gurney..

Arsenal got on level terms th ugh Bastin, who obtained a goal 19 minutes from the restart. This was followed almost immediately by Arsonal taking the lead, Gormlie, in running out to a high centre, only partially cleared and fell over Carver. With the goal- keeper lying on the ground, Bowden scored.
The Rovora, however, fought back gamely and in a fine rally Kennedy once more restored equality by snap- ping up a centre from Bruton.
It was a hard-fought game, in which doggedness was more conspicuous than football brillance.,
Norwich 0, Torquay 2
A log injury to Halliday necessitated a change in the Norwich defence, and though Ramsay filled the position with distinct credit, and, Morris, the old Southall player, made a promising debut at left-half, the defence, with the exception of Wharton, was uncertain.
During the first half, with better understanding, Torquay's goals by Birdland: Stabb could have been avoided.
Scott alone of the Norwich forwards was in form during the first half. The Norwich men were more themselves after the interval. They monopolised the play and did everthing but score.
Torquay were lucky on several Bowe the new Spurs captain, play-occasions, and a post was hit, but ed a great game. With Channeli, a Maggs kept goal splendidly. Fowler, focal Ind, playing his first game at Welsh and Lievesley also did great right-back, his duties seemed to be work in defence. twofold. Not that Channell was at all weak, but Rowe felt the responsibility and was always rushing to the aid of his new colleague.
They could not always stop these agile Sunderland forwards, who, how ever, beat themselves. Gurney and his colleagues often did their work twice. A position would be gained and then the attack would start over again because the trian in possession would not shoot.
H
The first two goals scored by Totten ham were picture goals. No defence in the country would have lived against the moves that led up to them. Evans was responsible for the first success. The Welsh International was sent away by Hall, and, when chall ungod by MeNab, he dicked the ball at the last moment back to Hall. Evans crossed to take the return, squared the ball, again at the last moment to Hunt, and with the defence in a tangle as a result of the rapidity of the move ment, the Spurs centre forward had an easy chance to shoot wide of Thorpe, McCormick was the hero of the piece when the second goal was scored three minutes after the interval. Even Bas. tin has never behaved so coolly as McCormick under difficulties. Shaw is no chicken in defence, but young McCormick outwitted him twice, took his time, and sent in a perfect contre wlion near the goal-line, for Hall to rush forward and head the ball into the net. McCormick dearly repeated

Keetley In The Shade With Hydes showing such brilliant form at centre-forward for Leeds- only Bowers, the Derby star, leads him in the First Division-it is hardly to be expected that Keetley will regain his place, and it is not likely that Keetley will be content to play for the losser team. The probability is that this member of the famous footballing family will be finding pastures new in the early future.
Quick Work
It did not take Mr. Alex.

Bussey play in a Central League match on Munday evening. Im mediately he opened negotiations for his transfer. Eighteen hours later Bussey had been signed, and was in the train en route for the bright lights.

most football „ fans to-day is whether South China, will be able to retain first division honours, this year. Already, due to the absence of the best Chinese players in Nanking

Unless the South Chiña. team show considerable improvement on their "present form they are not likely to win the first division honours this time, for the Lin- colns are going great guns at the moment and will take & lot af beating. "The Royal Artillery are pot so strong as they were last season, but they can still put up a good show, while the Navy are definitely a good side and are quite capable of fully extending the Chinese. It will be seen therefore' that there is a very in- teresting season ahead, and in this connection, one might ex- press approval at the action of the Football Council in allowing South China to postpone the matches which they had to omit during the earlier part of the season.
This will not make the league extremely Interesting.
