Summary

MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: England V Ireland. DESCRIPTION: The Duke of Gloucester was armed against the cold, when the two fifteens were presented to him at Twickenham. Then, Ireland kicked off in high hopes of scoring a long overdue victory on this ground. To judge by their first half performance, they certainly deserved to win. England opened the second half with a powerful series of attacking movements, and kept it up. The result: eight five. SHOTLIST: MS Duke of Gloucester meeting Irish team. BS same. MS same.
