 JOHN PLAYER TROPHY - semi-final        
            Leeds 8-2 Widnjs            
 Leeds, who have not graced the jinal of
 the John Player Trophy since they won  
 it in 1973, are there again.           
                                        
 Widnes, twice winners and jinalists on 
 five occasions, were in disappointing  
 form despite taking an early lead with 
 a Burke goal.                          
                                        
 LeedsW win was "kilt on magnificent    
 work "y their front row forwards and "y
 half-backs John Holmes and Mark Conway.
 Conway kicked four out of six penalty  
 attempts to secure a deserved victory.
