The Arsenal forwards were never permitted to get thoroughly going. They showed some nice work, but they could never get the mastery of the home defence. Dunno went very close with a hook shot just before the interval, but he did little else, nor did Bastin.
The best and most dangerous man in the line was Beasley, though Birkott was often conspicious with astute passes across the field.

I feel sure that few cars or ever animals have ever crossed this particular tract of country. It consists of a series of low hills covered with rocks varying in size from 12 to 50 inches: these are sharp and so close together that it was not possible to avoid them, and the cars were therefore jolted unmercifully. In spite of this bad Jolting we have had no broken springs, and except for a couple of slow punctures the tyres have also given splendid service."
After careful discussion in Calro with the Desert Burvey Dept., the head of the Motor-car Patrols of the Egyptian Ariny, and Mr. Moore, the Humán Distribu- tor, I decided not to fit condensera to the radiators, and I found thelf advice was sound.
