Summary
MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: The Season Starts. DESCRIPTION: Once again, Saturday is back to normal for thousands of football fans up and down the country. Leyton Orient made their debut in the First Division with Arsenal the visitors. It was Arsenal’s first appearance under the leadership of their new manager, former international, Billy Wright. Although this match didn’t exactly result in goals galore, there were plenty of pointers to an interesting season. And what about Ipswich Town, last year’s League Champions at home to Blackburn Rovers? After a very lively match, they finished 3 - 3. SHOTLIST: Key scene. GV crowds outside football grounds.
