Rugger Strength Shown By Seaforths

Area Details Overwhelmed To Tune of 32-0

London, Oct. 29.

Displaying distinct superiority over a good rugger team from Area Details the Seaforths, on Thursday afternoon at the Race Course, indicated that they are going to have a say ín local rugby matters during the coming season, by outscoring their opponents to the tune of 32-0.

The match was played: in the nature of a trial and although it is learned that the Scdts have only been at the handling game for three se: sons, such an overwhelming win over a side that has enjoyed more than average success during past winters here, seems to foretell that the standard of rugby displayed by the leading British Army units in Shanghai in past seasons will most definitely be maintained.
