WALES DEFEAT ENGLAND

Bryn Jones In Form

Cardiff, Saturday.

Before a crowd of 55,000, Wales beat England by 4 goals to 2 in their international football match here to-day.

Wales kicked off in

the

early

part of the game play was general- ly scrappy, both sides having dif- ficulty in controlling.

After five minutes, Astley open- ed the scoring for Wales, and in the succeeding minutes the Eng- land goal was several times in dan- ger. After half an hour's play, a Welsh defendér handled in the pen-

alty area and Lawton squalised from the spot-kick.

Five minutes later, Woodley ap- parently misjudged the flight of Hopkin's free-kick and punched the ball into his own goal to place Wales ahead again, but Matthews fequalised in the 89th minute of the game, and half time arrived with the scores level.

Soon after the commencement Wales attacked, but could not bet- ter the improved England combin- lation Wales, however, was always ́ dangerous, instituting several sharp raids. After sixty minutes" play, Bryn Jone the Arsenal star, scored for Wales, and four min- ute, later Astley added another. Thereafter, both defences held out.

Mr. Bradbury remarked on the grow- ing interest by women in club matters, and said the Club was again making pley. healthy headway, especially in cricket and tennis.“ . .

The only note, of discord he could O. E. C. Marton strike, continued. Mr. Bradbury, was

O. E. C. Marton with the lawn bowls. The club had O. E. C. Marton] possessed a wonderful record for many A. E. Lissantan years, one which he thought would be O. F. Groves unequalled for years to come, but the

old stalwarts were gradually decreas ing, and they could not rely on them to help the club · maintain its high position always. Mr. Bradbury appeal- ed to the younger members to show a greater interest in the game, and to rid themselves of the thought that lawn bowls was an old man's game. Several of the younger members who had tak- en the game up had become fascinated 4with it, he said.

It was up to the younger members i to replace the old stalwarts. Therb did not appear to have been the usual onthusiasm this year, and he suggest- ed that next year, before the bowls season commenced, the club organize some inter-club or inter-rink competi- tion, in order to encourage players.”“
