Match Report |
England beat Wales, at Liverpool,
yesterday, by one goal to none. There were 35,000 spectators.
The winning goal was scored
soon after the start of the match, which, although it was played on a
dry, firm turf, never reached a high standard...
Kelly scored the one goal of
the match less than three minutes from the start ; the ball was put
neatly to him by Max Woosnam from a free kick, and Kelly shot just
inside one of the posts...
During the last half hour,
England not only had most of the play, as they had had all through, but
they found their form as individuals and combined in some brisk, clever
football which made them worthy of the first victory gained by their
country over Wales since 1914.

It was on 13 March
1922 that Hay-on-Wye solicitor, Herbert Armstrong's writ for alleged
contempt of court against the Daily Express newspaper prior to his
murder trial, for depicting him with a "harassed face and despondent
attitudes" in order to prejudice the trial against him, was dismissed.
Armstrong was subsequently hanged for the murder of his wife by arsenic
poisoning, having also been accused of attempting to poison his business
rival.
