WITH Brown (Kirkintilloch Rob Roy) in goal and Fred Cameron, the provisionally signed player from Banks o' Dee at right half, Aberdeen reserves were distinctly unfortunate to be beaten by a last-minute goal from Hearts "A" at Tynecastle.
The game was played under fantastic conditions, but both sides took credit for their gallant endeavours.
Rodger (centre half-back), Wallace (left half), and the left wing pair of Clelland and Hather were the young Dons’ best.
Playing his first game of theseason at outside right, McMillan gave quite a promising show.
