"T, shall remember it with Shefeld's, see-saw 5-4ght of 1920, and the run-away Wembley wonder game of two years ago. This slaughter of the Scotsmen was memorable because it gave a crowd of over 90,000 people, be 1 It was draught decked so plentifully with

The presence of these Anglos, in my opinion, would not have ebanged the result; it might have mitigated the severity of the de- feat.
Non-official witnesses were in- clined to be heavily sarcastic by asking. "What selectors said Law was an International back?"
No Fluke Victory.
It was all very amusing. For my part, I am inclined to, forgive the Selectors and say:
If they had the chance to morrow to nominate a new team they could not find one in Scat- land capable of beating the England eleven of Saturday. Why you may ask. For the simple reason we haven't the players! We have no backs like Goodall and Blenkinsop, no David Jack, to mention just three of the victora. The Englishmen, know- Ing what they know, could beat us again to-morrow:- The whirl ing of Time has brought a period of plenty to England.

Jackson, too, was but a shadow of the man we know, albeit he showed his Micawber-like faculty for waiting on something turning up. Twice he got his head to the ball, and twice the bar haulked him-a big slice of bad luck in one game.

Disgusted at the financial returns from poetry, the long-haired con- tributor had left a collection of jokes with the editor, When he called about them, he was delighted with the editorial comment.
"These jokes are both good and original," said the editor, but un- luckily he did not stop there. "But the good jokes," he continued, "ard not original, and the original jokes made, are not good."
A statement that he would fight again if sufficient money
were offered has been
by Jack Dempsey, former heavy weight boxing champion of the world.
Dempsey refused, however, to comment on statement that he had signed an agreement to meet Frimo Carnera, the Italian heavy weight.

Smith and McConachy at that time were engaged in a time limit match at Manchester, which gives a special plquancy to the situation.
