Worth Not
Easy For
Eariton
Carlton should defent North
Melbourne on Princes Oval,
but in view of North's improvc-
nicnl il would be surprising if
bey scored a runaway victory.
HORTll have beaten Carlton only three
times in their 20 games, but two of
Hrcir successes were gained in the last
H>ur engagements against the Blues
Btair first win was in 1928, but they did
Hot score again until 1936, when they
Hon at home by 19 points. The third
Hin was obtained at Carlton by two
Hunts in 1937.
HUst year Carlton beat North by 50
Hunts, but it is unlikely that they will
HSe nn casY tira tomorrow, in:
H- , ,"lc fact mat they arc the pre- !
H" club.
North opened this season with a good
H'n at home against Fitzroy and then
turned at Hawthorn, where, with the
Hi t,. out and confronted by . ground
imcuUies. they lost by 38 points. To-
H£rw Forbes will be in again, and the
should show much better form on
Digger ground.

Bcnn could rise to the standard neces-
