IA# H AT can we say of Celtic's Scottish Cup record that has not been said before ? Here they are, again in the Fina! for the third successive time, determined to regain the Trophy. Indeed, the Parkhead sideboard must seem empty without it. _ ' The first Scottish Cup Final was played in season 1873-74. Queen's Park were the first winners, indeed, they won it for the first three years. Celtic first appeared on the Cup scene in 1892 when their opponents were Queen's Park. Since then, including to-day's game, they have figured in altogether 27 finals and have won the Cup on 17 occasions.

Here is a list of their winning finals.— GUMMING, Hearts 1892-—Celtic 5 Queen's Park 1 1899--Celtic 2 Rangers 0 Quite a day 1900-—Celtic 4 Queen's Park 3 This is also quite a day for Mr. Tommy 1904-—Celtic 3 Rangers 2 Walker.
