IT'S A DROP-KICK

ARSENAL v. DERBY COUNTY SHOULD BE SATURDAY'S TOUGHEST LEAGUE BATTLE

London, Feb. 14.-English football swings back to the League campaign on Saturday, and one of the toughest battles of the day seems likely to be the London match between two teams who last Saturday qualified for the sixth round of the Cup-Arsenal and Derby County.

Derby have an excellent record on Arsenal's ground in recent years, and with an attack which has a strong potential "punch." they may force a draw.

Manchester United, who have a mid-work Cup replay, face one of their The United, a pollshed stiffest League tasks to date in travelling to Sunderland. football side, are only one point behind the leadders, Liverpool, in the race for Divi- sion I honours, while Sunderland are also well in the running.
