Match Report |
ENGLAND'S
EASY VICTORY
England
beat Belgium on the West Bromwich Albion ground yesterday by four goals
to none.
Although
England played reasonably well, they did not show convincing form...
Then the
visitors were penalized for " hands," but Debie cleared splendidly. The
combination of England was altogether too good for the opposing
half-backs and backs, and at the end of 17 minutes' play Bradford took a
forward pass to score with a long shot...
A quarter
of an hour after half-time a neat dribble by Walker and some passing
with Bradford resulted in Walker scoring with a low shot. Almost
immediately afterwards Bradford ran through and scored England's third
goal. Good play on the right wing then led to Walker scoring another
goal...

December, 1924

IN OTHER NEWS...
It was on 8 December 1924
that a last-minute reprieve for Billy Smith was denied him on the day
before his execution, despite a deputation of local people, including
the Lady Mayoress, plus three MPs, appealing directly to the Home
Secretary for mercy on account that the crime was committed in a
momentary fit of jealous rage and was similar to another recent trial in
Hull that reached a verdict of manslaughter. Smith had cut the throat of
Elizabeth Bousfield with a razor at the home in Hull that they shared
with two other men.
