Gunners Don't Find It Easy To Beat Rest

6-3
Yesterday evening on the Club ground it took the Gunners all their time to overcome the hard-tackling, hart-going Rest of the Army XV by 6 points (2 penalty goals) to 3 points (1 try) before a very enthusiastic crowd which saw one of the best games of the season so far.
In the curtain raiser the 74 LAA beat the Club by 14 points (1 goal, 1 try, 2 penalty goals) to 8 points (I goul, I penalty gnal) in a good match which had some scrappy periods.
