Subject
Coverage of Motherwell's trip to South America
Description
After three opening losses, Motherwell secures three consecutive wins against an Argentine select team (3-0), an Argentine-Uruguayan combination team (3-0), and an Argentine Provinces team (4-0). Crowds ranged between 15,000 to 25,000 spectators. The cable from Motherwell's coach, John "Sailor" Hunter, suggests that the heat of the opening games was ill-suited for the Scots, whereas the cloudy and rainy conditions for the latter matches proved helpful for the visiting team.
