Harry Hammond scored 5 in the 6-3 win against Bootle in the 2nd division in November 1892 also Harry Johnson scored 5 in the 6-2 win against West Ham in the first division in Boxing Day 1927

I remember getting Keith Edwards autograph after training around this time and he was singing "Uptown Girls, I've been fucking Uptown Girls" to himself as he signed. It fair blew my innocent 13 yr old mind.

The original post is certainly incomplete.

The original post is certainly incomplete.

There were a number of 4 goal scorers before the War - Dunne and Johnson did it on more than one occasion. The OP is just listing the most recent ones.

Johnson's 5 against West Ham was one occasion when a player scored 4 in one half: Fred Tunstall, who got the other goal, scored first and it was 2-1 at half time. It may have happened on other occasions but the reports would have to be checked. Clarke is certainly the only one post War to score 4 in one half.
