I understand that Frank W. Davis, whose brilliant goalkeeping for Cheltenham Town in their FA. Cup matches attracted widespread attention, may one day become an Arsenal player. Davis has been selected to keep goal for England's amateur international team against Wales at Bangor on February 9, and a number of professional clubs have been interested in him ever since Cheltenham achieved the limelight..
