BLACKBURN DEFEAT HUDDERSFIELD IN THE CUP
FINAL.
GAME WATCHED BY THE KING AND DUKE OF YORK.
93,000 SPECTATORS AT WEMBLEY.

The English Cup final at Wembley on Saturday had an unexpected result, Huddersfield Town being defeated by the Black- burn Rovers by three goals to one. Huddersfield appeared to have been taken off their feet, when, in the first minute Blackburn's dashing centre forward charged the goal-keeper and placed the ball in the net. Six minutes before the end Roscamp netted the third goal for his side, Jackson, who scored the winning goal for Hud- dersfeld' in the semi-final tie with Sheffield United, was responsible for the only goal for his side.
RECORD OF THE TEAMS.
Huddersfield. were favourites for the great championship and the "double" and in spite of this revers, the present team will be remembered as one of the greatest the game has ever scen. They won their way, with the 'Spurs, to the First Division in 1820, since when their progress has been one long triumph. They were in the final the same year as they`won, promotion, only to be beaten after extra time by Aston Villa oy 1-0. in 1924 they were League cham pions for the best time; they kept their place for three seasons running and only lost it last season through a penchant for drawing matches, sharing the spoils on no fewer than 17
DCASION.
Twelve times before have Blackburn Rovers reached the semi- final stage of the competition tive times have they won the Cup; only once have they been defeated in the final. They won the Cup three years running and were awarded a special trophy in recogni- son of this feat in 1868. After a lapse of three years they won the Cup in two successive seasons, since when they have never reached the final Blackburn have now regained their laurels by defeating the outstanding team in football at the present time.

The Old Brigade."
Our selectors are inclined to stick to the "old brigade" too long. Out of five Wightman Cup contesta Britain has won only once--the second at Wimbledon in 1924—the reason of last year's defeat was that the selecters ignored two players, Ms. Watson and Miss Eileen Bennett, who
on performances" justified their inclusion, and since then have had successes against some of the team that were selected
to go to America. The selectors this year will have a more difficult task than last season.
Mrs. Godfree, if fully recovered from the attack of appendicitis, must be selected because of her all- round gano and ber match experi- chce. Mrs Watson has the strokes and the fighting spirit. She ranks, in my opinion, equal to Mrs. God- free in a single. Miss Betty Nuthall must be included. Hor form on the Riviera is not a criterion of what she can do in England, either on grass or hard court. Mis Eileen Bennett's ex- claxion in view of her successes on the Riviers is unthinkable.
Mri. Lycett has very Strong claims to be selected. She is now as good in a single as in a double- Then there are Miss Sterry, who obtained her colours last season, and Miss Peggy Saunders, who woo the covered court championship at Queen's in January and whose style is perfection. Miss Joan Fry and Miss Elsie Goldsack are also in the running.
