London, Feb. 11.
In an international Rugby motel: at Dublin to-day, England beat Treland by 12 points to 3.
The ground was in splendid con-"dition and there were a record crowd of spectators. The English team attacked at the outset, the forwards invading the home twenty-five line where Crawford, the Irish full-back, saved magnifcently. After nine minutes play, Wallis scored a try for Ireland. A beautiful movement by the English three-quarters ended in SmalJwood equalizing. Ireland pressed for a time and then the English backs made another well-sustained attack, as the result of which Low scored a try. The English backs continued to play finely, but they met with a very stout defence.
At half-time the score stood as England 6 points Ireland 3 points On the resumption of play, after a fine forward rush by the Irishmen, the English backs again took charge of the game, Smallwood, after a capital run, sending in to Maxwell-Hyslop, who scored.
Ireland then made a fresh spurt but was held up twice near the English line. Towards the end of the game, England persistently attacked and Gardner scored the fourth try.
