Goodness knows what the rules are to the Eton Wall Game, but judging by this Topical Budge
Goodness knows what the rules are to the Eton Wall Game, but judging by this Topical Budget newsreel footage it makes for a far better spectator sport than the average golf tournament. Played every St. Andrew's Day, it is said that decades have gone by without a goal ever being scored, possibly because there does not even appear to be a goal. Instead the foolhardy players pounce on top of each other with gusto, forming an unruly scrum against a brick wall.
One player known to have taken part in this particular match is a young Eric Blair, who would later become better known under his nom de plume - George Orwell.

The final radiotelegraph transmissions from the Titanic. This recording is in all likeliho
The final radiotelegraph transmissions from the Titanic. This recording is in all likelihood a simulation, but its exact origin is not known. It is notable for the authentic-sounding rotary spark gap tone and also for the code speed-- rather quick for a hand key! A video of the keying waveform is provided for further analysis.
