DEFEATED AT SOCCER BY ENGLAND. (United Press Association—By Electrle Telegraph—Copyright.) (Received, April 6. 11 p.m.) LONDON. April 6. In the international soccer match, England beat Scotland by 5 goals to 2. A great Scottish invasion of London in connection with the international match at Wembly, began before lawn on Saturday. The pipes were skirling bravely in Euston in the morning, but were wailing laments in the evening, some who had entrained rendering “Lochaber No More.” Out of 90.000 spectators, no fewer than 30,000 were Scots. Nearly all were wearing paper tartan caps. Mr Ramsay Macdonald and his daughter Ishbell were among the distinguished spectators. There were anxious moments when a surplus crowd of 20,000 beseiged the gates and the police checked sporadic fighting. The Play. High Scottish hopes faded shortly after the start, when Watson (English centre forward), scored twice in quick succession. Bradford followed with two goals, making four goals in thirty-three minutes. Rimmer in the second half brought the English total to five goals. Fleming (Socttish centre forward) provided consolation by scoring twice before the whistle.
