A. Lochhead
The three half-backs in the present tie with which I have to deal were Messrs, Auld, Lochhead, and M’Farlane. Mr. Lochhead has been long one of the “shining lights” of the 3rd L.R.V., and while in some respects inferior to Mr. Auld, has one grand virtue to recommend in a football player—viz., patience. His perception is keen and decisive, and if he imagines a daring forward on the other side can be successfully met without close tackling, he never fails to out-manœuvre him, and let the spectators see some rare half-back play. Mr. Lochhead took part in the Welsh International in the spring.
