Over 130,000 Soccer-Mad

Enthusiasts Will Be Hampden Park Tomorrow

By DENNIS HART

Tomorrow is Hampden Day. To any Scotsman this needs no clarification. But for the uninitiated it is the day when over 130,000-soccer-mad enthusiasts pack the famous Hampden Park Stadlum in Glasgow to see Scotland entertain their tradi- tional enemy from over the border.

The game is the climax of the Home international season, and on its result depend the final placings in the international table. If England win, they will share the top place with Wales. If Scotland win, the order will be first Wales, second Scotland, third England, fourth Ireland.
