A recently published statement by its President, Mr. C. E. Sutcliffe, and the sponsoring of the two-re- feree trial resolution by its Vice- President. Mr. W. C. Cuff, have shown the Football League to be alive to the evils to which pro- fessional football is exposed under the present system of administra- tion, writes a Home sports corres- pondent.
At the same time there is abund- | ent evidence that, some of the clubs do not appreciate the post- tion, and more of this was forth- coming yesterday when it became known that Portsmouth and Hud- dersfield are to propose an increase in the amount of bonuses paid to players in F.A. Cup ties.

It is to be regretted that Miss G. M. Southwell elected to withdraw from her match with Miss Harvey when the score was 2-0 in Miss Harvey's favour in the final set.
