Summary

MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Ireland Draw With Wales. DESCRIPTION: Wales, the visitors, came out first for their encounter with Ireland at Lansdowne Road, Dublin. Before the match got under way, both skippers were presented to President de Valera. On a pitch made extremely slippery by heavy rain, it was Wales who kicked off. (The match had been postponed and counted for last season’s championship). The second half started with Ireland 3 points in the lead. The Welshmen never gave up trying, and it was they who scored the only other goal, the one which levelled the issue, a fine penalty by Hodgson. SHOTLIST: Key scene. MS Wales come out. MS crowd.
