VITAL POINT LOST BY

CHELSEA Pompey Beat Charlton

To Tie Wolves

London, Apr. 8.

First shots in the Easter football battle with an almost complete league programme on each of the three days during the weekend were fired today and some of the vital issues in the promotion struggles were confused rather than helped.

For example, Chelsea, at the top of Division I, dropped a home point in what was regarded as a fairly easy task with lowly Sheffield United, their visitors. But Sheffield scored first through Jack Cross and the near 50,000 spectators had to wait until the second half before rightwinger Ernie Parsons equalised to save a point.

This may prove a vital lost point for Chelsea in their bid for the championship.
