CHAMPIONSHIP

STEWART'S SUCCESS OVER THE ACADEMICALS DUNFERMLINE ALSO WINNERS

(By “AIR MAIL”)

Glasgow, January 24. IN their pursuit of Championship honours, Ste- wart's (F.P.) had an easy win against Edin- burgh Academicals on Saturday by 20 points to 0, a win that was largely the result of splendid work by the College pack.

Dunfermline were also successful, winning an exciting game at New Anniesland by 13 points to Glasgow Academicals' 7.

Both Heriot's (F.P.) and Watsonians were on the Borders, and both were successful, the Myresiders withstanding a strong rally by Jedforest, and the Goldenacre men accounting for Gala.
