Young Dons' Best Display

THE Young Dons gave their best display of the season when they defeated Motherwell "A ' 4-0 at Pittodrie.

Key men in the forward line were inside forwards Archie Glen and Willie Hume. Callander at centre forward, tried hard, and though he missed an easv chance early on was unlucky not to find the net.
Stan Williams was tried at outside left, and though not outstanding appeared to have recovered from his knee injury. He scored once. The other goals came from Glen (2) and Hume.
All three half backs, McVean, McKenzie and Buchan, had a good day.
