Haley had switched iijfrprri the;wing and had an easy goal. Brown: notched the second in an open goal' after the 'keeper had mishandled, arid then Scottish Wanderers Started; to retaliate. A bright forward move' opened a gap near'the Hutt goal and Gray slammed through. Just before the spell Brown scored'his second, and'S.tpbbs brought the score to. 4-1 at the spell.
