Trying For Double
Instances of father and son winning Chatham Cup medals are rare, but if St. Kilda beats Eastern Suburbs today the family double will have been accomplished. Playing in the St. Kilda forward line will be B. Smith, a former Canterbury representative before he transferred to Dunedin last year. Brian is a son of the national selector, Mr Gordon Smith, of Christchurch, who gained his first Chatham Cup winners’ medal in 1936 and the second shortly after the war.
