LIVERPOOL RETAIN THEIR

IN UNBEATEN RECORD DEFEATING 'SPURS 2-1

London, Sept. 10.

Liverpool, leaders of the English First Division, retained their unbeaten record when defeating Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 tonight, after being a goal down at halftime.

Goals in the 51st and 84th minutes through Smith and Liddell brought them victory. Their winning goal came when they were playing with 10 men, their centre- forward, Smith, having been carried off with a leg injury 15 minutes from the end.. Newcastle, the English Football Association Cup winners, are still without a win this season. They could only draw at home in their "Derby" match with Sun- derland, for whom Yorkshire cricketer Willie Watson scored one of the goals.

Manchester United, Inst neu- son's Champions, who had not won since the opening day of the season, made ve changes for their visit to Derby The reshuffle proved successful, the United triumphing 3-2-the only Rway win in Division I. Their solido-left star, Pearson, hit all three goals.

The ace British racing driver, John Cobb, was believed to have exceeded the water speed world record in two runs in his jet-propelled bullet-shaped speedboat on Loch Ness yesterday, states a Reuler message.

But the runs were trials and were not officially timed.

The record is held by America's Stanley Sayers with 178.4 miles an hour, Cobb, holder of the land speed record of 394 miles an hour, made two tests in cach direction along Loch Ness today:

Ho said after the trials: "I went at around the 180 mph mark.”

Hls 31-foot long speedboat is powered by a De Havilland Ghost jet engine capable of developing 3,000 horse power.

He hopes eventually to exceed 200 miles an hour,-Express Photo.

TENNIS BOYS GO AFTER £1,200

With all the speed of a rheumatic snail, the Lawn Tennis Association is gradually recognising that there are such things as professional lawn tennis players -- tha difference between them and amateurs is that they pay income tax on their earnings—and the LTA is prudently deciding to get on with the pros before the pros become so important that they can get on without the Associa- tion.
