The " Magic Cup " more aptly describes the Football ..\'5ociation trophy that each season is competed for by the highest and lowest clubs in and Wales. It is undoubtedh- the greatest " knock-out " competition in the football world and the interest it arouses throughout the length and breadth of the land, extending to our colonies and e\·en foreign countries, is indeed tremendons. We have to turn back the pages of football history to Season 1871-72 to find the inauguration of the F.A. Cun and in that first season The \Yandere~s defeated Royal Engineers in the Final at Kennington Oval bY a goal to ml. When one considers that 552 clubs competed in this season's long trail to \VembleY and that there were onh- 15 entries in the first season the remarkable growth In popularity and interest that the great Cup Competition now stimu­ lates can in some measure be ganged. It will be of more than passing interest to gi,·e the names of the clubs who entered the first season. The" were Barnes, Ci,·il Service, Cr,·stal Palace, Clap­ ham Rm·ers. Donnington School, Hampstead Heathens, Harrow Chequers. Hitchen, Maidenhead, '.\1arlow, Queens Park (Glasgow), Reigate Prior", RoYal Engineers, Upton Park and The \Vanderers. It will be observed, probably with some surprise by the \'Ounger followers of the game that a Scottish Club cor.1peted in those far off days. Queen's Park, the club in question, were excused from playing until the Semi-Final when they drew at Kennington Oval with The \Vanderers. They were unable to make a second journey to the Metropolis, so they withdrew and The \Van­ docers went on to win the trophy. Most of the Finals were played at Kennington Oval until Season 1894-95, when the big Midland duel behYeen Aston Villa and West Bromwich Albion was staged at the Crvstal Palace. The Oval had its limitations for accommo­ dating a large crowd. From then onwards until Season 1913-14 the Sydenham slop<;s housed the Final with the exception of replays which went to the provmces. In 1914-15 the Final was played at Old Trafford, Manchester, owing to the Crystal Palace not being available. After the War, i.e., in Season 1919-20, the Final took place at the head­ quarters of the Chelsea F.C.-Stamford Bridge- and also in the two succeeding years. Then the vast Stadium at Wembley came into being and arrangements were concluded by the Football Association to play for the " blue riband " of professional football there for a period of years. The original Cup, possessing very little intrinsic value, was stolen from " tr::desman's window in Birmingham while Aston Villa were the holders in Season 1894-95. A new trophy took 'ts place, but that was presented to the R ight Hon. Lord Kinnaird on his completion of 21 years as President of the Association. . Thus in 1910-1 ~ another Cup-the third of its kind-was gi\'en by the Assoc1atton, and that is the one so manv clubs now strive to secure "ear ilitt~~ - . His Majesty The King was present at the F.A. Cup Final in 1914, 1921, 1923 and 1926. Other salient features of the Final ties are :- M~F.J.WALL Aston Villa have won the Cup on six occasions, which is a record. The Secretary Wanderers won it three years in succession and have held it altogether five THE FOOTBALL times. ASSOCIATION The highest official attendance is 126,047 in 1923 when Bolton \Vanderers played West Ham United. It will be remembered that the gates were rushed on that occasion and it is estimated that near!,· 200,000 were actuallv inside the ground. The receipts amounted to £27,776, which is also a record.· Three players have won five Cup Medals. They are Lord Kinnaird (Wan­ derers and Old Etonians) , J. H. Forrest (Blackburn Rovers) and C. H. R. Wollaston (Wanderers). Of present-day footballers Clem Stephenson, of Huddersfield Town holds three medals, two gained when Aston \'ilia won the Cup in 1913 and 1920 and the other with Huddersfield 'lown in 1922.

LONDON & BIRMINGHAM In spite of the fact that neither The Arsenal or Cardiff City have done part;cularly well in the League this season more than usual interest centres in to-clay 's game if only for the fact that The Arsenal were the first club to adopt professicnalism in the South. They sowed the seeds from which numerous healthy plants-in the shape of Foot­ ball League Clubs-are thriving to-day in the South. Outside of Wales, sentiment will be strong for an Arsenal victory. Yet what better opposition could be 11·ished for than Cardiff City, whose rise A. J.
