Strathmore Cricket Union: the first 90 years a history 1928-2018

29 by one run at Lochside. The same day saw the inauguration of the Tea Pavilion (although it was not properly in use until the following year) and Strathie professional Len Halstead’s benefit, so it attracted a huge crowd. Then came a rather more comprehensive setback for Brechin, to Arbroath this time, at Guthrie Park, a game in which young Sievwright earned his spurs with a good 69 after his father and Eldridge had dismissed Brechin for a lower score than they normally amassed. It was however a different story at Lochlands in the return fixture in the Arbroath Holiday Week, when Brechin won well. Arbroath United 1934 Back: J Armstrong (Marker), C Whitton (Ump), R C Matthew (Treas), J S Brand Middle: R David, J C Smith, A D J Myles, D M Rae, F C Eldridge (Prof), J Ford, A Angus, D Littlejohn (Pres) Front T C Smith, AM Fairweather, RW Sievwright (Capt), R Gleig (V-Pres & Secy), R G Sievwright The professional Eldridge is the tall man in the middle in the suit. He was injured and could not play in the last, decisive game and was not retained for 1935.
