Summary
MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Rugger Into Rag. DESCRIPTION: St Thomas’s met St Mary’s on the field at Richmond, all part of the Hospital Cup Final. The affair was pretty rough at times (that goes with rugger), but it was all according to the rules. St Thomas’s victory was by ten nil. Now for the other part of the battle, with St Thomas’s battle-wagon advancing on St Mary’s. Rugger had nothing on this encounter, what’s a tackle compared with a bash in the eye with a bag of flour?
