RECORD

(By AIR MAIL) The Arthur Dann cup final be- tween Old Carthusians and Old Cholmclcians, at the Hurlingham - polo ground, is attracting greater public attention than any previous final in this competition has arous- ed, and # record attendance is wisely being provided for. The steadily increased interest in this competition during the last three years has been due to the improve- ment in Old Boy football, and the keen struggles the tles have pro- duced.

time in their history, Old Cholmeleians In reaching the. final for the third had to play three matches with Old Chigwellians in the first round before gaining the right to meet Old Citizens in the second round. Although they then defeated Old Citizens and Old Aldenhamians convincingly. Old Chol-

melelans are rather fortunate to be in the final, for in their first game on Chigwellians' ground they were saved from defeat by a lucky goal scored two minutes from time. Old "Carthusians are also fortunate to reach the fimal.' for, after two great matches with Old Bradfledians they only obtained the winning goal luckily in the second match in the closing minute of extra time.
