HOME FOOTBALL RESULTS.

ARSENAL WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP TO CREATE

A NEW RECORD IN POINTS.

TOTTENHAM AND WEST BROMWICH STILL RIVALS FOR PROMOTION,

MOTHERWELL DISAPPOINTED.

Arsenal's sitcreas against Liverpool" on Saturday placed the championship of the English Longue beyond all doubt, Aston Villa, who also won, have to be content with second place. With two games still in band, the Arsenal have excçoded the record of €0 points held last year "by Wednesday and alsó by West Brom- wich and Liverpool previously. Derby County won six goala to one against Manchester United, who are marked out for relegation together with either Leeds or Blackpool, probably the former.

After their victory in mid-week, West Bromwich lost a valu- ' . adle point. Tottenham lost both points, and it is still doubtful which of them will accompany Everton to the First Division, Reading are likely to join Cardiff to make way for the promotion of two Third Division tennis. Notts County have made sure of promotion, but Lincoln City and Tranmere both lost their en- gagement to leave the other enfdidate open, Lincoln, however, holding the advantage.

Motherwell's hopes of winning the Scottish League champion- ship were destroyed when they lost to Cowdenbeath by the only goal, and the Rangers, winning by a similar margin, secured the hungara uguit. There are two raints left, and even in this remote possibility of the Rangers losing both and Motherwell winning, the former have a goal majority which will carry them through. ''Aberileen performed a creditable fent in scoring eight goals to one

against Clyde,

bringing the silver question moro and more into the region of prae- tical polities. Thero in the debacle which occurred in silver last year: There is also this congestion of gold in America and in France There is the inability in many countries all over the world to maintain their exchanges on a, parity with gold. There is also a continual strain in India in maintaining the rupee on the gold basis. All these appear to have created a more general dis position to discuss currency ques tions with a more open niind than has been the case for a long time paot.

Mr. J. R. Michael seconded the resolution, and it was carried unanimously.
