Willie Davies
Artist In Wales But
Tanner Also Consistent
By Clem Lewis
London, Apr. 19. LOOKING back over our international Rugby season the name of Sid Williams, the Aberavon wing, comes first to mind. He was our finest international discovery. We had cause also to be thankful for the unearthing of M. J. Davies, the South African Welshman, who was discovered at Oxford. Taken all round, we should be well off for centres next season.
