If ever the outcome of a rugby international seemed clear-cut it is the meeting of France and Ireland in Paris on Satur- day. Ireland have lost every match this season; France are unbeaten and victory will give them a share of the International Championship with England.

London, Apr. 4.
The English and the Scots tackle each other on Saturday in one of their bitterest soccer battles since the games started 82 years ago. The reason: the archaic laws of British soccer.
England's selectors can order players from English club teams to play for their country. So they get the best available team.
