INCOGNITOS FORFEIT POINTS IN MAMAK SHIELD. ·
W. E. Williams, the Welsh International hockey player, who recently arrived in Hong Kong from Japan, made a very favourable debut at centre-forward for the Hong Kong Hockey Club's first eleven yesterday after- noon in their friendly encounter' with the Jaį Regiment, on the U.S.R.C, ground. The game, which commenced twenty minutes late, resulted in a draw, both sides scoring two goals. The Club who were short of D. B. Evans, on the right wing, accepted the services of N. Whitley, of the C.B.A.
The only other match in yesterday's hockey programme the Mamak Shield match between the St. Andrew's Club and the Incognitos was cancelled owing to the non- arrival of the majority of the Incognito's XI. St. Andrew's have, therefore, been awarded the two points at stake.

Williams, however, equalised for the Club with a shot from the left, which struck a defender's foot and lodged in the net. Toward the jend, from a rebound, Divett netted, but the point was disallowed for "sticks."
Outstanding players in the Club side were W. Reed, Dand, Woodward and Rodger, the reverse stick work of Rodger being very impres- sive.
