Additional Notes

Dick Johnson is often referred to in programs & newspapers of the time as R Johnson which probably wrongly assumed Dick was short for Richard and is often confused with Ray Johnston who played with Newtown & City rep teams 1934 to 1937.

Dick was always a fullback but Ray was a primarily a lock forward who did start with Newtown in 1934 as a centre and moved quickly to the forwards.

To further confuse Ray Johnston was referred to in programs in 1934 as R Johnson for Newtown.
