The Glasgow Herald – Mar 18, 1918
NO CHANGE IN LEADING POSITIONS
Celtic and Rangers were seen to equal advantage considering the merits of their opponents and both city teams gave promise of making the closing stages of the present competition most interesting and the final placings problematic…
…If St. Mirren failed to effect a third surprise at Parkhead they made the winners task exceedingly difficult, and in attack and defence the Paisley team compared favourably with their conquerors.
