London, Mar. 19. Triple Crown winners and champions one year and wooden-spoonists the next! That is Scotland's Inter national Rugby record.

The premier country of last season finished at the foot of the table in the current series as a result of yester- day's defeat in the concluding engagement for the Calcutta Cup.

It was a curious game in that the victors had all of the play and nought to show for it save three penalty goals. Scotland, how- ever, twice crossed the rival line in the first half, but could not convert either try, and in the second half they were so completely outplayed that they never looked like getting on terms.

Thus Scotland had to pay heavily for a serum infringement in the first instance, and for Young's rashness in running offside in the second.

And so to half-Ume with the sides on level terms--a fair reflection on a ding-dong game.

ENGLAND TAKE LEAD

The first picture of the second half was a fine effort by Bruce-Lockhart which, however, was ended when Watkins tackled him brilliantly. Then in Ave minutes England went into the lead.

Again it was Hunton's skill as a morksman that did the trick. The Lancashire centre took full toll for Borward's off-side infringement by placing another perfect goal from a difficult angle.
