Referee- R. T. Murray (Stenhousemuir). Shortly after the start of the game A. McNair who met with an injury when playing against Clyde on Monday, retired and his place was taken by W. McStay (Celtic). About two minutes after the kick-off Gallagher, from a pass by McInally, scored for Celtic and Rangers, and 15 minutes later Craig equalised for the League eleven. Play throughout this period favoured Celtic-Rangers, but their finishing was weak and no further scoring resulted. The League side were seen to more advantage in the second half when they twice scored through McFarlane.
