It Is, perhaps, signifienst that until Mr. McWilliam resigned each of there three club was managed by n. Scots-
man.
As I have previously told Mr. John -Cochrane's bellef is that the most suce evanful team is one blended with players from both countries. And opinion that English football, would have remained of a lower class if it had not come under Scottish 1 fluences can scarcely be questioned.

So much for all the new-fangled idens. Sunderland's football is an old as the game, and the fact that they now hold the premier position should make those who persistently search for an expedient for a little success wonder whether the effort in worth while.
Portsmouth are another club who have greatly benefited from the Scots in their midst. It is true that the team was built round Jack Smith, but I do not believe the club could have achieved their pre-eminence without their Scottish wing halves, Thackerny

TRIANGULAR TOURNEY
ACHIEVEMENT
Easily Overcome Navy In Return Match
By R.H.D.
Displaying better combination and having just that extra sting essential to a winning forward line, the Army defeated the Navy by six goals to three in the return Triangular Tournament hockey fixture at King's Park yesterday afternoon, after leading 2-0 at half-time. Last week, the Navy brought ----- off a sensational victory over)
It is notable, too, that most of the the Army, by four goals to two, players I have mentioned are the key but yesterday the Army more men of their teams, and at the peak than atoned for this. of their form they are regarded as ulnost indispensalde.
But because of their importance and the vital part which they play they set up perplexing problems. Where are their sucessors to be found and what will happen if they are not | fortheuring?
OTHER KEY MEN
The experience of Sheffield United points to the dangers. They have never made good the loss of Gillespie¦ · and his famous partner Tunstall, on whom they rolled so much.
