Three Arsenal forwards, Arthur Milton, outside right, and Douglas Lishman and Don Roper, the left-wing pair, have been picked to play for England's "B" team Easter Road, Edinburgh, "on against Scotland "B" at Wednesday, March 11.

This is the same date s the floodlight match between London and Berlin at Highbury. team selection will be restricted not only by the absence of these players, but also, I expect, by the Scots picking John Hewic, the Charlton full-back.
