Injury hit Long Eaton had persuaded Norwich's precocious talent Terry Betts back into
the saddle. In his first match, despite a fall in his second ride, his 8 points
helped inspire the Archers to a much needed win over Glasgow. His second match
away at Poole saw him test the safety fence and the resultant ankle injury brought the curtain
down on his Arches career. His place against the Tigers was taken by Ken Adams with
Eric Minall who had previously retired from Exeter in 1953 drafted in at reserve.
A maximum from Jack Kitchen and two wins apiece by Clive Feathery and Billy Bales, coupled
with seven second place finishes steered the Tigers to an away win.
