DAVEY'S TRY WHICH SENT CROWD
WILD WITH JOY
FIRST DEFEAT ON WELSH SOIL FOR PERIOD OF TWENTY YEARS
(By H. B. T. WAKELAM)
An "International" crowd of round about 50,000 went wild with delight at St. Helens when Swansea, by a goal and two tries. (11 points) to a try (3 points), thoroughly and de: servedly defeated the New Zealanders. It was perhaps the greatest day ever in Welsh football, for whereas the last and only other defeat of an All Black side on Welsh soil (way back 20 years ago over Callagher's men at Cardiff Arms Park) was a narrow and much discussed affair of only three points difference, here was a clean cut victory by a real club team with no possible ex- cuse for the visitors on the actual run of play.
