Joe Scott was pleasantly surprised when he received a handsome gold
watch fob bearing the following inscription:
_Presented to Joseph Scott by his admirers in Hudson's Bay Store
for splendid display as goalkeeper against Scottish All-Star
Football Team,_
_Winnipeg, June 9th, 1921._
Joe is an esteemed member of our delivery department and was honored by
Manitoba footballers in being chosen to keep goal for Manitoba against
the visiting Scottish stars.
Said the one and only Jimmy McMenemy: "We won with ease, but there is
one consolation left for the home boys, and that is that they are the
best team we have yet opposed.
"Your goalkeeper, Joe Scott, is a worthy custodian. Facing a blinding
sun and having to handle a lively ball, he put up a great game between
the sticks. I thought that some of his saves were particularly fine."
