CLUB OPEN SEASON WITH TWO WINS

AGAINST NAVY

The Club opened their season on Saturday with two victories, on their own ground their first fifteen defeating the Navy by 16 points, (wo goals and two tries) to 13 points (two goals and one try), and the "A" beating another Naval aide by 11 points (a goal and two tries) to three points (a try).

The first team game was fast and mainly featured by the splendid work of the Club pack, and the excellent tackling and kicking by the Navy.

ARSENAL VICTORY OVER SPURS

MAINTAIN LEAD AT HEAD OF FIRST DIVISION

IRELAND BEATS SCOTLAND

The overwhelming victory of the Arsenal over Tottenham Hotspur at Highbury on Saturday has enabled the champions to maintain their lead, in the First Division, by a single point. Stoke are their nearest rivals now.

A crowd of over 35,000 spectators visited Windsor Park, Belfast on Saturday to see the defeat of Scotland at the hands of Ireland in

their International fixture, by two goals to one,

The victory was greeted with the wildest enthusiasm. Last year Ireland returned the same score against Scotland..

Hugh Callagher (Chelsea) opened the scoring for Scotland five minutes before the interval. D. Martin from a melee ten minutes from the end and J. Coulter also of (Belfast Celtic) equalised Belfast Celtic, gave them victory in the last minute of the game.

The Navy opened with a try by Sowden, Meeke equalising a few minutes later with an unconverted stry. During the second half Franks gave the Navy the lead again with 70 a try which Suther converted. Bramble was next over for the Club, 21 try which Peers falled to convert.
