Scottish Camanachd Association Cup
A running commentary on the second half of the Western District
Final
From Mossfield Park, Otan Shinty belongs to the same family as Irish Hurley and Welsh Bandy, and is the great game of the Scottish Highlands, where your true Gael calls it Camanachd. It is played by two teams of twelve a side, and the object is that one side should drive the ball through the hail or goal of the other. The stick with which the game is played curves upwards at the striking end, which is triangular in section with the sole as the base. Any side of the stick may be used in hitting, and there is not, as in hockey, a rule against lifting the stick beyond a certain height in making a stroke.

' Outside In'
W. F. Miller (a listener) interviews
P. I. Keith Murray
A descriptive commentary, including characteristic noises from the Studio
This evening a typical listener has his revenge on P. I. Keith Murray , the BBC's outside broadcast assistant in Scotland, who spends so much of his time asking questions that are designed to satisfy the listener's curiosity. Some time ago Mr. Miller. a listener in his thirtieth year, wrote to criticise a programme by Mr. Keith Murray , and said he had listened to so many programmes in this series that there were quite a number of posers he himself wanted to ask. So the BBC took him at his word and tonight he has been invited to come from Rosyth, where he lives, to Scottish Broadcasting House in Edinburgh, equipped with a list of all the points that have been worrying him.
In ' Inside Information ' P. I
Keith Murray has taken the microphone to many points of interest in Scotland, such as Crieff Highland Gathering, Stonehaven Swimming Pool, a Galloway creamery, and an Edinburgh skittle allev
