LEADING TEAMS UNLUCKY
HARD TASK FACING CELTIC
Rangers & Motherwell Drawn Away
•
Lending first division teams have not enjoyed the best of luck in the draw for the second round of the Scottish Cup to be played on February 3.
Rangers, Motherwell, St. John- stone, Hibernians and Hearts ill have to make journeys. Celtic have to make an uncom- fortable trip to Ayr, and Hearts will find stiff opposition from Queen's Park on the latter's ericlosure.
Aberdeen have again been for- tunate enough to secure a home draw, this time against Dundee, whom, on comparative longue recards, they should beat fairly casily.
The draw, which apparently la conducted in a somewhat dif forent way to that of the English Cup, allows for fourteen clubs to remain in the third round, includ- Ing Queen O'South who have drawn a bye in the second stage. A rather serious accident This means there will be two marred the friendly game between further byes to be added to the the Daymon and tho Fore Topmon third round matches, of HM.S. Medway yesterday afternoon at Happy Valley.
Dove, the Daymen's outside right, was carried off the field, after a severe collision with an opposing back; he struck his head on the ground, and remained unconscious for a short while.
The Fore Topmen carried off the honours of the day, defeating. the Daymon by four goals to one after a vory exciting game, in which Pratt figured prominently.
At the Interval, the Topmen were leading by two goals to one, although but for Dove's accident, the Daymen would certainly have reduced the margin during the second half.
In the first half, Phipps scored
