Match Report |
 ROME,
MAY 14
The Association Football match between England and Italy
ended yesterday in a draw, each side scoring one goal in the first
half. This result did not, on the whole, represent unfairly the run of
the play.
The Italian team started off with great dash and
confidence, whereas at the outset the English players were somewhat
incoherent and took a little time to settle down. For the first 25
minutes--in fact until Bastin cut in from outside, and with a fine
shot equalized the scoring that had been opened in the eighth minute
by Ferrari--the Italians were distinctly superior and the English goal
was several times in danger...
Bastin's goal was challenged for
offside, but the German referee, Bauwens, who throughout did his work
well and quietly, was probably right in allowing it...
Hibbs,
who appeared both to misjudge the flight of the ball and to slip in
trying to stop the Italian goal, did not lose confidence, and made
some fine saves...
The game was followed with the keenest
excitement by the 50,000 or more spectators who packed the stadium,
and among whom were the Princess Maria, Signor Mussolini and Sir
Ronald and Lady Sybil Graham.
It has been arranged to play a
return match in London, in December, 1934.

IN OTHER NEWS...
It was on 13 May 1933 that the waxwork of Adolf Hitler at Madame
Tussaud's in London was covered in red paint and a placard placed around
the neck with the words, 'HITLER THE MASS MURDERER' on it. The four
culprits, including a married couple, were kept in custody for a week,
before being released. The ringleader was fined ten shillings and
ordered to pay £5 in damages.

 Source Notes |
Although retrospectively, it is
claimed that the Arsenal manager Herbert Chapman had a hand in this tour,
there is no contemporary evidence to suggest this. The newspaper reports
state that the tour was in the hands of Arthur Kingscott, who in turn,
answered to the FA Secretary, Sir Frederick Wall, who was also a member of
the travelling party, and that the Party was trained by Derby County FC's
Laurie Edwards.
