said Johnnie Walker

"I mean that literally,” he added. "This is one of the cheerfully decora- ted Christmas cases of Johnnie Walker. But balancing is a gift too, and the balancing feat I'm particularly proud of is the perfect balance I achieve between the contrasting qualities of many matured single whiskies when I'm blending Johnnie Walker. So this Christmas, give your friends Johnnie Walker in these special Christmas cases. They contain 3, 6 or 12 bottles, and your dealer stocks them ready for sending."

Contributing factors to the decision were the unsettled con- ditions in the north, the bad financial position of the Association, the poor and the gate receipts this season inability of Army and Chinest players to make the trip, owing to the visit of the Islington Corinthians.
