TO-MORROW'S RACES
"Staggering Blow"
Mr. J. Edwards, vice-chairman 0: The Arsenal, told an "Evening News" representative that Mr. Chapman's death was a stagger- ing blow for the club, and that he had sacrificed himself to root ball.
In a general way the experience of the Arsenal club has ruthlessly exposed the fallacy that a footbali team and it applies equally to sport can be built up on defence. "He told me he had caught a Arsenal had and still have one of chill early in the week through the best organised defences in four making a hurried journey with-ball; but, that alone did not carry cut an overcoat," Mr. Edwards the to the top, nor will it keep added. "Yet he persisted in go- them there. ing to Guildford on Wednesday to see the reserve team play."

Last Post at Highbury Arsenal Stadium at Highbury this afternoon was the most solemn football ground I have ever known, writes an "Evening News' representative.
It needed no fluttering of fees at half-mast to tell of the blow that had befallen The Arsenal by the death of Mr. Chapman.
The crowd assembled in absolute silence, and scarcely a sound broke the scillness. Even the band. which carried on as usual, falled to rouse the spectators to their usual cheerfulness.
There are a few left. O'Dowd, of Cholnes, is one. Mr. Claud Kirby, chairman of the club, said that they did not intend to transfer O'Dowd. Chelsea could not afford to let such a fine player go..

The last minutes of the garme were fraught with excitement as the Radio forwards broke through thrice but falled to register, and Just before the end Teddy Fincher completed his "hat-trick" with a snap goal, converting a centre by R. Baldwin.
