CLARKE IN FORM
Played before a large crowd on the
Club ground, Happy Valley,
Scotland succeeded in defeating England by two clear goals. The still of the wing men in each team was mainly responsible for the open and fast play which contributed towards an interesting game. Both Clarke and Clucas were conspicuous with a number of splèndid saves between their respective "sticks."

Promptly on time R.P.O. Billings lined out the following teams:-
England: Clucas; Dixon and and Martin; Hedley, Dowman Blies; Magee, Peacock, Redgate, Grimwood and Skinner.
Scotland: Clarke; Henderson and Blackburn; McGlashan, Oram and Duncan; Hughes, McKenna, Frazer, Hay and Campbell.

was again prominent with two splendid saves, the second, at the cost of corner, being from Magee, who had cut in and ghot from close range. From the flag kick Clarke snatched the ball from a bunch of players and threw it clear to relieve the pressure....
The English wingers ware still getting too much scope, with the result that at this stage the Scot tlah defenders had a busy time in keeping out the centres that were put across, and from Skinner's corner kick Peacock shot well over the bar. A minute later Magee cut in again to shoot, but Hender- son deflected the shot, behind for B fruitless corner. However, Magee could not be kept out and he was back again to bring Clarke to his knees with ir haid drive. Just on the interval Clarke again saved well from Magee and the whistle blew with England's goal down in spite of their persistent attacking.

On the resumption, Scotland broke away to force a corner on the left and from Campbell's flag kick both Frazer and McKenna missed badly, and Clucas ran out to clear his area.
