SOUTHERNERS' FINE RALLY AFTER THE INTERVAL

CROWD OF 65,000 Y'ATCHES THE

GREATEST MATCH FOR DECADE

The England-Italy International match at Highbury yesterday proved one of the greatest games for a decade. After being three goals down at the interval Italy rallied in the second half and extended the English XI to lose by the narrow margin of 3 goals to 2. Over 65,000 people witnessed the game while in Italy excitement reached astronomical heights. So great was the in- terest taken in the game that Signor Mussolini declared a nation-wide half holiday, and each phase of the game was broadcast to Italy.

Prominent in the large crowd at the game was the large contingent of Italians, twenty-thousand in number, waving national flags and shouting war cries throughout the game.
