LADIES AT HOOKEY.
| Field of Two and Twenty Sweet
and Twenties.
[BY A SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT,] England and Wales were not the only two countries that contended in sport yes- terday. For England and Scotland sent their hardiest growths of girlhood to match themselves at hockey in the Old Deer Park at Richmond.
Twenty years ago young women were al- ready playing hockey, and the girls, of Somerville Hall were among the pioneers. But they played it in Oriental seclusion, behind jealous walls, and cynical under- graduates could only surmise-unjustly.- that they used a worsted ball.
Ladies' hockey has developed since then. There are now regular international mat- ches. Nor am I any longer thrown back on unjust surmises. I pay my shilling, and marsh in with a crowd, and there are the two and twenty girls for my admiration, with one umpire—a man-to look after them.
England' wore red skirts, with white blouses, while Scotland' distinguished it- self by dark purple skirts and-if I may hazard it-heliotrope blouses. There is a rule of the All-England Women's Hookey Association about skirts. Six inches from the ground-more if preferred. Shin. guards are allowed. Few players wore them. They are not consistent with short skirt.
But my admiration was mainly spent on the intense seriousness of the game. There was a sprinkling of snow, a dense fog at the start, and a mild snowstorm before ⚫ half-time' was whistled. No one dream- ed of shelter or shirking before the hour. and ten minutes was passed. It was real hockey, scientific, bold, fearless ; when a collision brought a tumble; the tumbler took the accident like a lady; and when the masculine umpire blew his whistle two and twenty sweet and twenties came to heel without a murmur. One really ought. BUSINESS TRAINING COLLEGA.to practise whistling in the last ditch
