History

edit

Edinburgh District beat Glasgow District in the Inter-City match [1]

This was the first season that the North of Scotland combined side beat the South of Scotland District side.[2]

The Provinces v Anglo-Scots was dropped from the District schedule; and there was to be no South of Scotland v London Scottish match. Instead the South lined up a match against Welsh opposition.[3]
